My question is, what is the solution?

Your mission

Quit trying to play captain save a ho with the world and figure out what you want out of your life.

My question is, what is the solution? Do I tune this out and stay purposefully uninformed? Fight and try to show others the truth? Keep my mouth shut and placate to others that are in the dark?

Read as much as you can stomach. If it's stressing you out or making you cynical then cut back. Stay skeptical but don't go full blown conspiracy theorist. Never openly discuss with others about RP or any 'controversial' topics unless prompted, the person can be trusted, or the person offers up a similar viewpoint that isn't bait. Otherwise people will treat you like a leper in social situations.

Don't try to change other people. Just be the best version of yourself. The US is heading towards authoritarianism and your best bet is to keep your head down and not stir the pot. If you have a $10,000,000 idea though, leave this place. The US is no longer a safe place for men to try to innovate and succeed.

The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum...― Noam Chomsky, The Common Good

Although this is outside the purview of TRP I'm with you u/AcRedLive.

A little background; I was raised in both a Western culture and a more traditional clan based culture due to my heritage. I was shown how a society grows literally from the ground up, how to build, maintain and most importantly govern it. Conversely; I've experienced what popular culture in the west would have us believe is the epitome of human endeavour.

The commonality; the human condition and our individual relationships/attitudes towards it.

The issue I find is that the west is consumer driven, productivity oriented, and economically focused. I live in the west(though travel home frequently) my partner is always on the upgrade hunt; new fridge; new car; new pram; whatever vacuous adornment will help fulfil her self image. I always tell her it's your money; buy whatever you like. But she'll always upbraid me because I don't divulge that I save my money, invest and all she sees is that I rarely spend. Consumerism is the new black.

Contrasting this is my community. We're slowly bringing it into this century. It's still very much family oriented, community driven and outcome focused. Which children are we putting through school/secondary/tertiary education makes up the majority of my work along with infrastructure, community development projects and overall society building. Of all my roles it's definitely the most time consuming and demanding. It also pays the least but gives me the most return in terms of life satisfaction.

Yet whenever I look at mainstream media in the west, whenever I look at the global human condition; I see through the veil and see that the government and big business care nothing for it. All that matters is keeping us plugged in.

My question is, what is the solution?

My solution is to ALWAYS STAY INFORMED then use that information for my benefit. I've diversified all my intelligence sources and and continue to grow my networks. Eventually I might be able to affect more change but currently I'll bide continue to my time and work where I can; with what I have.

Whatever you decide remember having more information is always better than having less. What you do with it is entirely up to you.

Godspeed and good luck!

Do you want the shortcut? Skip finding the truth and get present. This hole is so deep it ruins lives. Countries fall people die and you cant do anything. Self improve and learn to be present. Become Kierkgaards knight of faith.

You are in the depression phase. It’s a phase that you go through when you swallow the red pill. This phase will pass.

Fuck it. I'm bored. What are "the truths"?

I mean, using the word "truths" in the same sentence as "politics" is a chancy proposition on a good day.

I'll stop now and just take in the croaking of the gay frogs.

I just through some random one liners and quotes at you that seemed worth remembering for the situation us men are in now:

Think for yourself but behave like others.

Enjoy the decline.

Acceptance is freedom. Lean into the pain.

Suffer in silence.

Never explain. Never complain.

If there's always someone better, nobody wins.

Per aspera ad astra.

Aside from that work on your body & mind. Lift & read. And don't try to take life too seriously.

Sounds like you had a psychedelic experience. They can make you realise you've been an enslaved sheep your whole life thinking thoughts you need to be thinking, doing the things you ought to be doing etc. Culture is not your friend - Terence McKenna

political thought rarely helps me - i've been down all those roads and back. just read evola and lift.

it's good to know i'm not the only one who walked that path. as someone said: i got redpilled and almost instantly became a trump supporter"

it's like you start to see that the mainstream narrative have huge holes in it and you're not willing to put up with the bs anymore.

don't know what to do. i'm experimenting with telling the truth, but i'm always instantly labeled. then i try to keep it to myself, but i can't stand hearing all that nonsense without reacting. i didn't find yet a middle path.

Getting truly red-pilled in all facets of life can be daunting. I also did it for religion and politics, just as you. It's not for everyone. You go through a lot of cog dis that can be incredibly painful. In fact, some peoples' sanity doesn't survive the trip. For those of us that do, know that it can also be incredibly empowering. You understand how the world works much better than the majority of the population, and you can use that to your advantage.

​

One complication is that it can also be a challenge socially. You're going to run across a lot of people you now find it more difficult to respect. I try to remember that I used to be just like them, and have some understanding. I also try to aid those capable of making the journey.
