Thank you for posting this story. Pleadingtheyiff's posts were what clued me in to PG in its recent form. I dropped my casual (fake) friendships, committed myself to daily CC, prepped my basement, and have stopped ignoring my instincts when it comes to protecting my child. What hit home for me was when the online citizen journalism started matching my own experience both as a child abuse survivor of a near-elite family and as heavy lifetime reader. I can't tell you guys how horrified I was to see Tony's Podesta's Dahmer victim sculpture and recognize it instantly from the serial killer books I used to read in the 1990s. Some of us oldies were once black t-shirt wearing underground catalog ordering "conspiracy" people from way back when and still remember stuff that we've long since thrown away. We've gotten old and complicit. Tried to fit in for too long, gotten used to not calling out wrong things when we see them.
I admire the bravery of people who take the time to "red pill" others who are new to this kind of knowledge. I have always felt that you can't ask someone to take the burden of knowledge that is terrible. You can experience too much, read too much, see things you should not see. Everyone has their right to blissful ignorance. But I have been proven wrong in the past year, watching the force of overwhelming good overtake the world. Neckbeards, oldfags, bros, nerdgirls, soldiers, and all the other groups have found out that we are on the same side, which is the side of impending victory.
