I think that’s right. It’s part of self-preservation.
My hope however, is as people see the stakes grow higher that they start recognizing where they were wrong and begin doing the difficult things to make things right.
My personal wish is to honestly reflect what I am seeing, thinking, and experiencing in hopes others discover something useful to incorporate into their own thought lives followed by whatever actions they think necessary to take.
In recent posts I have stated the following:
We are at war.
It’s a World War.
Currently, with Ukraine as a huge exception, it isn’t involving classic destructive warfare familiar from past conflicts.
It’s more sinister and potentially more lethal.
This irregular war right now involves cyber activities as well as psychological operations or Psy Ops. It could escalate to kinetic war in the future.
What this means right now is we can be aware of things happening, but also be confused and disoriented. The Pandemic has been a part of this operation.
Projection
One classic propaganda technique is called Projection and it is to declare that your opponent is the one doing everything you are doing.
This results in two useful outcomes for the one projecting. First, it forces the innocent opponent to defend him or herself which distracts them from productive work themselves and puts them on the defensive. Secondly, if and when the true enemy is caught and brought up on charges he or she can declare that they were only doing what everyone else was doing at the time. Remember, accusations are front page news and retractions are buried in small print on page fifteen.
Depopulation
The ultimate objective of this war is for a relatively few elites to control society, but the society they have in mind contains fewer people. And because they have no great love for humanity they are comfortable in following the paths of Lenin, Hitler, Stalin, and Mao Zedong.
Mass genocide is no problem for them, as long as they get away with it. Likely for this reason, it is in their favor to employ more subtle ways to accomplish the same objective.
Fighting Back in a Psy Op Environment
The greatest problem and risk to the enemy is for the passive and asleep population at large to begin to wake up.
If they do this in time everything changes and it will be understood how much gaslighting has occurred.
A small post like this helps people orient and respond to the situation as it really is, not as projected by others for their confidential reasons.
My Confession
Personally, as I look back on what I thought was true about different institutions and leaders in this country as well as around the world, my mind has completely changed. Before, I would have called the person I have become a Conspiracy Nut.
Now, clear evidence is easily available and being confirmed by so many unrelated parties that it is becoming difficult to ignore.
However, I am aware even within myself, the tendency of not wanting to admit I was blind and in error to the extent I have been. The problem now is if any of us choose to not wake up and look at evidence we once scoffed at, we are playing into the enemy’s hand.
At this point in current events, I have a sense that much of what I am telling you is not that new. However, I also believe the more sources you see that seem to align, the more it will increase your suspicions and desires to check things out yourself.
Finally, it is time to face fears and speak out.
Thoughts? Comments?
I think you are spot on. With how easily information and evidence can be acquired about what is going on, I am a little surprised how many people are in denial. I guess that's the point of cult/mob mentality. I think most people are just too caught up in their day to day routines to acknowledge what is happening. As if they continue to ignore things they will go away or that they are not happening at all. When I talk to these people and bring up current events and realize how ignorant they are to current events, sometimes I am little jealous. Sometimes I wish I were not so curious and more care-free so I can relax more. I will stop rambling now. Thank you for the great post!
I agree with your post Ben, and with Greg’s & Linda’s comments. The 2A is what separates the US from the rest of the world when it comes to being able to repudiate what we see happening; otherwise we are one election away from that picture at the bottom of your post.
