Your senses are correct. It is evil.

If it does all come crashing down (order out of chaos), it might be helpful to adopt the attitude of Job: The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. The meta narrative is not in our control.

On another note, I was recently in a Stok'd store and one of the employees was wearing a mask, so I said what I usually say in those situations: "It's none of my business, but I am curious to know when I see someone wearing a mask and nobody else is - Do you think we are crazy and are risking our lives?" She said she had a cold and that she tests regularly. I asked her if the test is still the stick up the nose and she said yes. I responded with "so apparently there is a virus that is so dangerous that you can catch it by just breathing on someone, but there is no way to test for it simply with saliva". The usual shrug of resignation was the answer. But then another employee who was sitting at the back of the store chimed in about nothing about it makes sense. We had a great conversation because he knew what was going on. I left the store uplifted (not from the cannabis) but from meeting another shrew - and a young one!

Every time things got bad, there was a shake up used to gain power.

The great depression lead to bigger banks and the federal reserve for example.

The solution to the manufactured crisis was successful because it reversed what started it.

However, with con-vid, the plan fell apart on it's own.

How did they expect a shot that injures many to be trusted for more and more shots?

It failed because it hurt those that supported the insane measures. They stopped taking the boosters too!

After this crazy shot, those who questioned vaccines in the past are now gaining attention, like the show "The highwire". It's no longer crazy to look into the fraud, the term anti-v was no longer a double speak term to dismiss them.

Now we are seeing the same thing in the war in the middle east.

After this event, it's become less taboo to question the history of the situation. In the past, those who questioned it were ignored or dismissed as anti this or that. Now it's lost it's power, like with covid.

And the funniest thing that I thought was never going to be talked about... The JFK assassination.

It used to be dismissed by calling them conspiracy theorists. Now, that term no longer has that negative connotation...

People are waking up slowly and the old propaganda that worked on the previous generation doesn't work on the younger generations. Sure, they fell for other bullshit, but woke and other stuff like that is more flexible than having been brainwashed by a long long cold war. I remember you told me how you were annoyed at the anti Vietnam war movement. Today, anti war is becoming "cool"...

We were in the story of 1984 and are at the point where the propaganda no longer works.

Double speak like mentioning those names they called truth seekers no longer works to dismiss valid concerns.
