This is worth a read.

He starts off talking about the "red pill" stuff then moves into Marx, Freud and Nietzsche's "hermeneutics of suspicion" and that approach of looking for the hidden making its way into the mainstream and resulting in the popularity of conspiracy theories before suggesting the "bluepilled" position may be more complex than the "redpilled" would like to think and that the latter really aren't the threat to the establishment they'd like to think they are, the two positions instead working together to reinforce it.

this kind of reading is really heavy going becasue you get treated like a moron who cnt understand a simple point and an argument which
could be happily made in two paragraphs gets stretched into a 'long read'.

"Will Freeman lives a carefree lifestyle without any responsibility or commitments, thanks to royalties left to him by his father's successful Christmas song. Will joins the Single Parents Alone Together (SPAT) community group under the pretense that he is the father to an imaginary child, but instead aims to meet single mothers."
