>Redpill
there is nobody left to redpill. one way or another, everyone has been exposed to the truth. all that's left is for the people around the world to pick sides. that's where propaganda comes.
Probably true. I do most my forumin on known local shit but came here recently for a bit longer. I dig it, completely free speech for all ages.
The tide keeps a turnin' due to some massive MK experimentin' aint no problems here brosapien.

The mainstream tipped over from Conservatives to the Democrats, and reactionary edginess drove /pol/ too far in the opposite direction.
Went from anti-establishment athiests in favor of drug legalization and personal freedoms, mistrustful of government and dogma, right the way over to fundamentalist theists in favor of the State legislating against porn and "degeneracy", mistrustful of science and anti-authority counterculture.

Do you maple fucks actually try to shitpost or does it come naturally?
edward snowden stood up and basically told everyone the truth and all the neckbeards who had been crying about government conspiracies for a decade were all proven correct so now there is nothing left to do but shitpost and offend college liberals

>The mainstream tipped over from Conservatives to the Democrats
That's a very narrow view, are you fucking serious? What about the refugee insanity in Europe? What about the SJW bullshit on every front of western society? What about trans "rights"?
What about radical Islam murdering and raping across Europe and any criticism being met with calls of "racist"? What about the situation in schools in America right now?
What about the Zimmerman trial hack job and all the other dindu cases that followed and to anyone reading them were concocted media shill stories to promote some weird white-hating policy? How about the fake rape cases trumpeted as fact, lives ruined and a serious case made for why facts and evidence shouldn't matter when a woman cries rape?
>mistrustful of government and dogma
The hard right wingers, meme or real, are also mistrustful of government and dogma. There aren't any establishment bootlickers here. There's a reason Trump and Rand get threads while Guacamole Jeb and Arriba Rubio don't.
Even Sanders gets threads but nobody's championing Shillary.
> mistrustful of science
You should be. I don't get why the left and right split their sacred cows that you can't criticise, and I don't get why the left thinks "science" is truth. There are so many systemic problems in academia, whole branches of science are complete bullshit.
That aside, you will note the right wingers (again meme or not) attack soft science over hard. And they fucking should.
> reactionary edginess drove /pol/ too far in the opposite direction
What actually happened is that a bunch of idealistic young leftists grew up and realized there's as much bullshit on that side of the spectrum. The only thing that's really happened is that 4chan is more centrist. Whoever is still a leftist ideologue feels abandoned and that the site has been "taken over" by "nazis".

I'm still into all the conspiracy stuff, but the immigration crisis has changed my priorities.

You're saying those are Conservative memes? That's retarded. I think you're confused.

Okay, not confused, just retarded. Gotcha.

No. Re-read.

I can't tell if you're just a sophist with a stick up your ass or if you're really on the reddit SCIENCE!! xDDDD level of understanding.
Academia is rotten to the core. Peer review isn't the assurance of quality you think it is. Entire disciplines are loaded to the brim with bullshit.
Here's an easy read on a metastudy of psychology, trying to reproduce the results - you know, the cornerstone of science.
http://www.theguardian.com/science/2015/aug/27/study-delivers-bleak-verdict-on-validity-of-psychology-experiment-results
>An international team of experts repeated 100 experiments published in top psychology journals and found that they could reproduce only 36% of original findings.
There's a reason there's not more of these reproducibility studies. Nobody wants to fund them, nobody wants to show how riddled with holes their own disciplines are. Again, being able to reproduce results is a key component of science. And yet re-testing and validation is at the bottom end of science. All the money is in "new discoveries". The publishing side and peer review processes are supposed to be quality assurances and they're not. They're insanely corrupt.
Really, for your own sake stop being a retard and do what science tells you to do. NOT trust it blindly. To QUESTION science and the results. Be a fucking skeptic. Investigate.

Okay, you inbred Swede, let's do this by the numbers
1. I say the mainstream tipped over from Conservatives to the Democrats
2. You say "That's a very narrow view, are you fucking serious?"
3. You then list a load of painfully obvious observations of modern Liberal (ie Democrat) ideals in action
In summary, your counter-argument against my claim that the West has tipped over into mainstream Liberalism is that, nuh-uh, because lots of Liberal-ideology inspired events are happening in the mainstream
Are you done, you dumb fucking half-Polack?
>academia is corrupt!
Oh holy shit stop the presses I was unaware of this development as I am a 2 year old child with a wasting brain disease. Do you suppose any other institutions in society are corrupt?
>>55430722
bruh, The west has been mainstream liberal since 1990's
