My Red Pill Reading List

In 2017, I started reading a ton of books and other material to educate myself on the world of politics.

Boy was I in for a surprise.

Up until that point, I was so darn sure of myself. So sure of my political opinions. I knew better.

Well, egg on my face.

Turns out, I didn't know much about the reality US politics.

I do now.

Here are some of the books that I recommend the most when it comes to US politics.

It doesn't represent everything I've read, not by a long shot, but it's a great place to start if you're curious about taking the red pill.

I've broken it into categories to make it easier to navigate. Enjoy!
