So funny. What's ironic is, my red pilling started with John Stossel.

Well, I use to really like John Stossel's 20/20 specials where he would debunk common narratives, especially government narratives.

Anyway, I was in my office one day doing some filing, and I thought, "Whatever happened to John Stossel?" So I looked him up and saw he had quit ABC and had a show on Fox Business. It was a pretty good show talking about how much bullshit government programs were. This was at the height of Obama's second term.

After that, the Libertarian pipeline had been built. Started reading Higgs, Mises, Friedman, Williams, Sowell, Hoppe, etc. (Haven't read Rand) Started reading opposition like Marx and Keynes.

Became intrigued by the theater of the 2016 election. Didnt vote because Fuck That Statist Shit. Thought the Qlarp was interesting. Followed it for a while because it was a better show than what was in mainstream media (which I had pretty much abandoned by that time). But then I realized that Trump wasn't fighting to get rid of the Deep State. He was fighting for control of it. I still kept up with for entertainment purposes, but didn't take it that seriously.

Stumbled on Voat. I loved it because it was the one place where all the Qtards went and I could give them shit. That's when Every Single Time started to hit home and the "noticing" began. That was two years ago. Quite the journey.

Interesting, he stuff was really good. Such a shame. His episode debunking gun control was excellent.

Did you enjoy Marx? He makes great points about capitalist economy and why the US did it best.
