I've never been "blue pilled". I was raised in a very traditional household, I sort of had a 1950s upbringing which I'm eternally grateful for.
So seeing the nuclear family and having a non feminist, stay at home mother, and a strong father, made it where I naturally despised feminism and these chip on their shoulder liberal female teachers as soon as I encountered them from early age.
But there was a moment I want to highlight as utterly retarded that made me realize that a large chunk of adults and people in general are profoundly stupid and it happened in 9th grade.
It was gym class and Supersize me had come out about 3 years prior, and the gym teacher, a man btw, has our gym class for that day be to watch that documentary.
I could not believe that anyone would be so dumb as to think that documentary was some sort of eye-opening revelation.
The second I knew the concept of it, the only thought was "duh".
Don't eat Mcdonalds every day, it's not good to do that. Where can I contact the Pulitzer prize people, because the brain trust behind that mind-blowing exposé needs to receive it retroactively.
I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone that a grown man would think that this documentary would be an exercise in anything but 1 hour of stating the obvious.
The fact that the documentary itself was incredibly pretentious didn't help either.
And then the dawning realization that it's not just a gym teacher showing this, and students watching it, but some studio actually paid money to get this made.
It really made me question the intelligence of mankind as a whole. Something everyone knows gets made into a documentary. (And yes I know the documentary was full of lies and fudging, but even without those lies, if you need a film to tell you not to eat Mcdonalds too frequently, then you're not long for this world).
Anyways, I just was baffled such a thing existed, and that teachers thought it would be eye-opening to students. I looked around thinking "is everyone morons"?
It would be years of further red-pilling until I finally got my answer...yes. The answer is yes.
One of the big parts of the film was that his liver was suffering damage. It was statistically unlikely to be a result of unchecked McD consumption as opposed to the alcoholic intake he was doing at the time.
