Tech billionaire and lifelong Democrat Mark Pincus said during an interview this week that seeing how the mainstream media would lie or hide the truth from the public led to a “red pill moment.”
Pincus made the remarks during an episode of “The All-In Podcast” this week while discussing how he would read blogs that would reveal information faster than mainstream media and would often contradict what was being reported.
“I started feeling more uncomfortable and queasy with what was going on with mainstream media,” he said after coming across multiple examples of mainstream publications hiding information from the public.
“Then, in May 2024, I read an article that talked about Trump’s speech in Charlottesville, where he said there are good people on both sides, and the article said it was completely propaganda and didn’t actually reflect what he said,” Pincus said. “That he denounced the Nazis a bunch of times in his speech, so then I went and watched that video, and that was my red pill moment.”
“I think it was for a lot of people because it wasn’t just the media or politicians spinning it,” he continued. “That speech was one of the pillars of why you were supposed to hate Trump. Then you see Biden say that’s why he had to run a second time, and Obama says it, and Biden brings it up again at the DNC.”

“They clearly know they are misrepresenting things, so for me, that was beyond uncomfortable,” he added. “Now, I have to go back to first principles and look at the primary data, listen to only original speeches by people, and I just realized I couldn’t trust the mainstream media.”
