Huff Post: I Was A Lifelong Progressive. Then I Started Listening To Bari Weiss -- And Everything Changed.
This is a long good read about how one can get "red pilled" by grifters. You need to make it to the end as it's not what the title suggests.
I first heard Bari Weiss’ voice in November 2024, a week after the U.S. presidential election. My friend had sent me an episode of Weiss’ podcast “Honestly,” and as I was doing chores around the house, I popped in my Airpods with some skepticism.
“She makes it clear why Trump got elected,” my friend texted. “Idk, it just makes you feel better.”
As a lifelong progressive, I was wary. And yet, I wanted to feel better, because I felt awful. The conditions were pretty ripe for an escape. Maybe, a pill?
How does one get red-pilled? I’m not sure that’s the right question. I don’t believe anyone “gets” red-pilled. No one is forced to take red pills. We take red pills. The question is why.
Being red-pilled is experiencing an “awakening” that causes an individual to move away from liberal values and adopt conservatism, far-right beliefs, or even conspiracy theories.
