Are you seeing/hearing 'The Red Pill' meme on media platforms on a more and more repetitive basis? Are you not entirely sure whether it's applicable to you or in your main focus? Welcome, for you are at the gates of the fork in the road.

The truly iconic scene from the film 'The Matrix' has gone on to be a physical beacon for what people worldwide are associating as their awakening period. Once awareness of how the world works in a full the quest for knowledge can gather at a veracious pace? Every waking day should be a new realisation and further detail defining a new path for yourself. It can be a liberating experience, on a massive plus side personally it should bring you closer to one’s own consciousness and vibration. To be more aware of one’s true self and for that to be a guide to resolution of any internal/external challenges (if that may be the case?)

For once 'The Red Pill' is taken, like the character 'Neo' in 'The Matrix' you cannot go back, the concepts and belief systems you head previously are by the wayside and a different landscape forms. Now, from a personal perspective my experience was not smooth or easy to fathom. My intrigue started to grow from early 2000s, we had terror attacks such as 9/11 and 7/7. On top of this we had the deception from Bush/Blair in regards to 'Weapons of Mass Destruction' in Iraq and the subsequent conflict thereafter. Then comes along the dot com bubble and the 2008 financial crisis. The last point alone has seen millions realising that all is not what it should be. Gaining clarity on what things like the fiat monetary system, fractionalised banking and derivative trading actually means and what effect it has to everyday people and their financial standing.

'The Red Pill' can on occasion be responsible for the realignment of what people deem a value in friendships. A reassessment can take place, if your core value system shifts because of such a realisation, people who were close to you before could become less close to you as a consequence? This is a lengthy process to evaluate and an awful lot to internalise, a period of confusion and self doubt can occur although this is path of the course with such a monumental shift the mind has to process.

Your own personal political crisis? This can be devastating. I'd particularly say that if your persuasion is more towards a larger government and safety net perspective, rather than less localised more personal freedom perspective. Then learning the inner workings of government and central banking systems will be a truly bitter pill to swallow.

What has happened over recent years is this, playing the law abiding, decent citizen hasn't got most of the people very far in the last 10 years financially, paying taxes, working full time. Many are left in a quandary how to pay their outgoings week on week? This is not sustainable. Disillusionment with poliiticians and corporations (establishment figures if you will) is at the forefront and people are now seeking new ways to bring alternatives.

We the populous of the world are enslaved, we are shackled to a system in the hands of central bankers who control and manipulate markets. They bound us with their incessant multiple taxes and their year on year inflationary rises. More and more the boundary ropes where we are able to freely innovate, trade and interact professionally for ourselves and our own personal futures are being restricted. We are forever observed through intelligence agencies in ways that harm our personal liberties in the most terrible ways. We are tied, told our money has to be put directly into the bank, sold debt instruments such as credit cards, loans and excessive period mortgages etc.

There are positive notes to this however (and thankful for them), we have the internet and the ability to share ideas and debate with each other freely around the world. This has now starting to make inroads into major news networks and the reach their propaganda can gain to their viewership. We now are starting to have disaffection with political systems, a rise for populist and far left candidates is an overwhelming thumbs down to a 'centre ground' political landscape which has remained prominent for far too long. Also, I now believe people are able to hedge against the markets if they so wish? Assets that will retain value in any inflationary/recession event are well worth flooding to (in my opinion these would be precious metals and cryptocurrency).

I say this, I would not return my red pill if the offer resumed itself again, however the realisation and the shift in focus it provides is a weighty one. I would much prefer to know what is going on with my city, my country, my planet than rather be spoon fed propagandist lies and consuming dumded down television shows.
