this entire reality is a lie

from "WhatifAlthist" | World History, Philosophy, Culture · host Rudyard Lynch

Some truths are too enormous for words—like discovering the sky is a different color while normies remain blind. Over seven years since high school, I systematically deconstructed the comfortable illusions we've lived in our entire lives. Politics and trans issues are just surface symptoms—the rot goes INFINITELY deeper. Once you flip the log over, it's completely eaten through by worms. This episode dissects our rotting worldview and reveals why everything we've been taught is fundamentally false.
