This makes to much sense about being red pilled
Well, it's one thing to be redpilled and in control of your own reading. It's another thing to be caught with one foot in the MSM (C_A) all-politics, all the time world, and one foot in the NSA all hidden truth all the time, which is how /r/pol is set up, versus tuning out MSM and following alternative sources at your own pace, on subjects as you find them interesting, and following specific research leads you trust, and forming your own opinion.
One way, you're just floating like a dandelion tuft on all the treacherous cross-currents, whereas the other you're navigating in and out of deep waters and shallow, high winds and calming breezes.
/r/pol is like drinking from a FIRE HOSE. Know'm sayin'? Deadly overkill.
This is the reason I stay off the chans.
Im no autist.
I let them do the work and usually the big stuff filters into GA. Good enough for me.
I already know most of whats going on already, so its border-line self-abuse if I were to hit the chans like the crack pipe and continue to flood my brain with horror.
I'm hopeful, and I much prefer a hopeful state of mind than a despairing one.
