It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shakes, the shakes become a warning.

oh great, taking an Op-ed and a fox news one at that as being indicative of anything is hilarious, also if your political opinions are so easily swayed by the nusto fringe then whatever, cya, gubye.

right, just because I don't support BLM or antifa that's supposed to mean I'm red pilled? uuuuuh what?

I'm thinking people who came up with the "redpilled" -term, and people who use it, don't even understand what it actually is to take the red pill. In fact, I'm guessing most of them haven't even watched the Matrix.
If only that was the only thing they were doing. They reject the shackles of political correctness, and then nail themselves on a cross of Trump worship and servitude to bigotry and lack of sanity.throwing off the shackles of political correctness

It's basically been ruined by guys who can't find girlfriends who blame the rest of the world, when the reality is they either 1) have no spine 2) are complete assholes, or both.

You still might drop it
>Using 'alt-left'
>Using liberalism as a stand-in for left-wing(Which is funny, because of the strong dislike that lots of lefties have for liberals).
Yup, its an MMO-C thread alright.

But that is the thing, nobody is calling themselves 'alt-left'.
What always amaze me is the utter imbecility of the memes the alt-right keep producing. Most of them does not make any sense.
Because, call me stoopid, but what is exactly supposed to mean ''take the redpill'' ? See that you are used as a living battery by genocidal robots ?
Oh yes, the vague ''see the world as it is really is''
But folks, that '''edgy'' metaphor is not exactly breathtaking-that's way better explained, way less confusing and making WAY more sense in a fourth century BC text (presumably way older, as Plato was inspired apparently by the Phytagoricians), The Allegory of the Cave. The obsession with the redpill screams like people obsessed with a fairly forgettable flick with two even more forgettable half baked sequels.
Sequels that FTR, go out of their way to demolish with a jackhammer of retcons the entire concept of the redpill, since there is no really choice...
You don't have to be on the fence because of the sjw. They're fringe by definition, to start with; and it's not like they self-identify as such: it's the new pinko. Being on the left has absolutely nothing to do with overreaction, fanaticism, or political correctness. Overreaction/fanaticism is not exclusive to any orientation; and PC is not even left by any standard: it's conservative. It's old farts squeaking at the lack of social decorum. It's politicians kissing children. It's a tool to project the power of the status quo over the minority opinion: you would't want to be a social outcast, would you?.
Some american liberals adopt it, and some american conservatives try and cast it as a left thing; that's culture wars, co-option and subversion, with the predictable outcome of America 's Overton window turning right in the last few decades. But it's just that: american conservatism reigning over the political discourse.
People can be left (or right) without any of that nonsense. Fence sit if you want, but don't justify it with the american perspective.
You know what would be really the mother of all redpills ?
That of the heroes of the alt-right,
-One set ended soiling themselves in fear in a bunker minutes away from being stormed by the Red Army .
-The other set ended up trying to flee in Mexico dressed as women.
For people so obsessed with big manly guns, it's odd to venerate so much armies that ended up being utterly crushed.
But keep licking the losers, folks. Keep lionizing the Aryan supermen that considered your own people talking animals.
