George Carlin ~ on The American Dream
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed
(and hence clamorous to be led to safety)
by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

INTRODUCING THE RED PILL ROUNDTABLE (here)
Hi, I’m Alex, creator and moderator of The Red Pill Roundtable. I'd like to share an account of how my personal journey has led to my interest in starting this new discussion forum, a description of the subject matter and the type of participant it is being created for. I think George Carlin might have approved.
THE RED PILL, ME, AND THE GATHERING QUESTIONERS
Like many in my boomer generation, I began breaking family traditions in my teens by questioning many religious and social paradigms that didn't feel right. This essay is about how astoundingly wide the schism between my former and current views has now grown, but also about how the internet has provided a place where many worldwide who asked the same questions and revised the same views are gathering to talk about it.
Giving up the illusions of comfort and security of herd mentality as an unquestioning member of mainstream society by revisiting and challenging all it's foundational belief systems with an open mind and accepting any new truths regardless of any scorn and isolation it causes you in return is referred to as taking the Red Pill.I'll call this group the Questioners.
Questioners often refer to their lives as before and after they woke up. Numerous rude awakenings were experienced from being shocked, amazed and disturbed at the new information uncovered after taking these new hard looks at long held beliefs. There were few others to talk to, but with the advent of the internet age Questioners were no longer alone. Global forums filled quickly with others who had made the same discoveries
and were anxious to share, compare and discuss the relentless stream of new puzzle pieces. The Red Pill Roundtable category at WaccoBB.net is being created as a safe-haven and exclusive club for local Questioners.
After waking up, the formerly absurd, impossible or sci-fi becomes conventional fact, and the formerly mundane like the trusted nightly news a bizarre, surreal and often creepy script. Aggressive manipulation jumps out at you relentlessly like in the 80‘s
B-movie They Live
within news, advertising, music, movies, politics, govt/big pharma/military/industrial complex propaganda , mass produced foods, outdated science/physics/history/archaeology teachings, organized religion including many facets of the 'new age' movement and more...
Questioners soon realize that the machine (Matrix) has been a very healthy monster for a long time with limitless resources, long-term agendasand great determination to develop extremely advanced technology for use to ruthlessly deceive, damage and keep their unfair advantage. The unraveling web of deception then necessitates seeing human origins, evolution and our place in the universe substantially different too... and much bigger.
You may wonder why I spend time pursuing all these subjects when I could live without bothering. The answer is, because it makes 100% difference in nearly all choices I make from what soap I use, what I ingest, inject, avoid, spend money on,
what views and habits I choose to flood my body and health with, and much more. Though the proverbial rabbit hole keeps getting deeper constantly reminding me I am still in knowledge kindergarten and has forced me to consider that the big picture may be greater than my human mind can grasp, it is empowering to feel less and less ignorant and vulnerable as verifications pour in. I no longer have any doubt that boldly facing even the ugliest truths is far less costly to my soul than staying blind and asleep.
The most difficult thing to live with becomes the closed minds you walk among and their apathy to the glaring signs, especially those with derisive and indignant apathy.Especially difficult is watching the erosion of America's constitution and foundational system of checks and balances due to complacent and servile citizens abdicating their constitutional duty to demand accountability of their decision makers. Those being given the power to make laws and spend America's tax dollars are really just being given the right to get away with anything with impunity and are getting more organized and taking deeper and deeper advantage of it every day.
Questioners ask from a new lonely void.... what can I do about it?
A common starting place is choosing to first stop being part of the problem as much as possible, then joining other Questioners to continue to dig, expose, compare and truth-test to both benefit your own evolution and hopefully the grand collective somehow as contributors to the primary stage of positive change - knowledge.
Questioners’ roundtables are very active and rapidly multiplying for these reasons, are getting very good at fitting puzzle pieces together and despite agreeing how big the monster is, do not complain, whine or use the language of being a victim. It's inherently understood that standing up to the monster begins with becoming informed, taking back your own mind and sovereignty, and especially not perpetuating the illusions of the Matrix any further.
For example, the Red Pill community long ago stopped debating the following foundational concepts except for details. Seemingly separate, these topics are ultimately connected for all leading to the same concepts within the true nature of reality and all represent opportunities to either wake up and free your mind, or remain an unquestioning Blue Pill member of the Matrix dutifully helping reinforce illusions:
1. 9-11 was an inside job - like countless other false flags. If you're looking for someplace to start, start here. The tentacles of 9-11 lead everywhere past, current and future - political, financial, techonological, historical, scientific, military, corporate, international, and much, much more.
2. Tax dollars primarily fund covert Corporate/Industrial/Pharmaceutical/Scientific/Technology Industry/Military/and shockingly unethical Black OPS agendas very contrary to public benefit.
3. All organized religions are oppressors with hidden creators, agendas and violent, manipulative practices and histories very contrary to their altruistic public face.
4. The true history of the Earth and Human Beings is far different, longer, richer and advanced than taught in school.
5. We are not alone.
Truth is the achilles heel of the Matrix. You're especially invited to also share your story of before and after waking up. I'm looking forward to sharing ideas with other Questioners within our community at The Red Pill Roundtable and extend a very warm welcome to all local brave, inquisitive and open minded thinkers, adventurers and truth seekers.
