We're not here for any sense of belonging.

We're not here for any sense of being counter-culture.

We're not here because this is fun. Because it's not fun. It's not the least bit fun to look at the grim reality of what's going on. Part of the reason the term 'redpilled' caught on is because there's absolutely nothing pleasant on the other side. Your first reaction after your first red pill is almost always to reject it.

Nobody changes their mind overnight - even if it seems that way. It's a slow process of lots of little things - of individual pillars of faith crumbling one by one. Eventually, there aren't enough standing to keep the whole thing up, and that's the moment that feels sudden. But the buildup takes years, sometimes even decades.

For me, the system never succeeded in building the feminism pillar inside my childhood mind. I saw the preferential treatment of girls from a very young age and as a consequence, I never, ever bought in to the idea that we were in anything that could accurately, honestly be discribed as a 'patriarchy' or 'male dominated society'.

Just lacking that one pillar makes all the others have to carry more weight - which functionally makes them all weaker. Just knowing that one universally repeated claim is pure nonsense makes it easier to question the others. The more you look into things, the more unstable it becomes.

Just don't ever expect it to make you happy. There's nothing happy about clearly seeing the utter fucking gargoyles that run this world for what they are.
