Today is an episode of TSP Rewind, commercial free versions of past podcast episodes.  Today’s episode was originally Episode-2860- Is it Even Possible to “Wake People Up” at this Point? & was originally first published on April, 19th, 2021.

The notes below are the original notes from that episode.

Talking to some of my fellow podcasters, content creators and influencers lately I have heard many of them say things like, “I don’t even bother red pilling people any more”.  I often wonder if any of us have actually ever successfully “red pilled? anyone, ever?

For people not familiar with the term it comes from the movie the Matrix and simply means to reach someone who has believed the lies of media and government in a way where they wake up, like Neo in the movie and see “the matrix” for what it is, a lie.

I think if you’d of asked me if TSPC red pilled people back in say 2014, I would have proudly said yes.  Today I don’t think so, I don’t think we do it now, I don’t think we ever did and I don’t think anyone “red pills” anyone else.

Why?  And what does it matter to our lives?  Tune in today to find out.

Join Me Today to Discuss…

• Think about it, Neo had already awoken in the movie before he got the red pill
• Even then the pill was still a choice
• Minds were only awoken in the movie when young and when they were already waking up
• What this tells us a a metaphore about life
  • The most accurate, articulate and fact filled argument will fail to reach the person who does not want to be reached
  • Most people would chose to be a lion in a zoo, well fed and protected vs. living free in the wilderness
  • People are not woken up by others, rather by their life experiences and a mental predisposition
  • Once they wake up we can and should help them as we can, but the sleeping should be left to enjoy the illusion
• What happens when someone wakes up to the current reality
  • Messiah complex
  • Everything seems worse than it is
  • They want an easy answer, a solution, a hope someone can fix it
  • Then tend to panic and follow extreme voices at first
  • Then they either wash out and go back to sleep or mature into reality
• The truth you must come to accept or you may as well just plug back in
  • Most people want to be led, controlled and “protected”
  • There is no way to fix this, you can only improve your life and work with the willing
  • You will need to work with people who are still plugged in and let them be so
  • There are solutions but they are individual and community, there is not political party, no ideology, etc. to change it all for the better
  • Government is always trying to get more power, you will never change that, ever
  • There is no winning here, there is simply not losing
  • What you think won’t effect what happens, thinking, however, can show you what is likely to happen
• Final Thoughts
