Your last two points 5 and 6 are more important than ever. This Israel thing pains me. Just as we were all waking up to the tyranny and working together to apply mass non-compliance, BOOM!

They divided us again. 'They' are soooo good at what they do. I sincerely hope that your message gets through to the masses mate. I for one am listening and acting, but I fear we are running out of time.

Amen, brother. The magic is in the separating. This is the Marxist dialectic - cultivate the oppressed/oppressor dynamic. Marxism waits to pounce with the answer to the thesis/antithesis dialectic - with a synthesis.

Amen. As I was reading this, I thought of someone I love who is being manipulated to destroy their life for the sake of the transgender movement. I kept thinking, "Cui Bono." Then you said it! Everything is happening for someone's benefit. Sean Hannity, wittingly or not, has become a neocon shill. Travis Kelce has become a pharma shill. Ben Shapiro has always been a Mossad shill.

The best way to deal with your own vulnerability is to periodically detach yourself from the narratives. Turn everything off. Meditate. Start observing yourself as though your higher self was hovering over your physical self and noting all the nudges, tugs, and outright pulls. Know thyself. For a good read, check out "The Untethered Soul" and open your mind to the narratives to which we all subscribe.

Another great piece!

The issue of trust is a salient point and one I've tried to address in my latest article (currently editing). I chose to focus on points 1, 3, and 6 of your list, and it's great to see spirituality mentioned here.

As technology advances, AI becomes ubiquitous, and the boundaries of 'reality' become ever more blurred, we're all going to have to get a lot better at looking within for answers and truth.

I'm optimistic about our chances of success... It usually takes something monumental (tragedy, more often than not) for people to make great changes in their lives and in their minds., often finding spirituality at these times.

As we're all being subjected to monumental and tragic circumstances, more of us than ever will undergo transformation. The harder they push, the more they push us to develop and grow.

This is called mental torture and it’s been with us for a long time. Religion is one of the most effective methods to counter it. There’s a reason most oppressive governments go after religion first.

I recommend substituting the word "Religion" with "Spirituality".

I wonder why you would do that, John. I substitute the word "god" for "universe" so as to keep spirituality separate from religion. To me, "religion" is a form of mind control. "Science" is the control of our 3D physical world. Spirituality is the recognition that we are a spirit housed in a 3D body of flesh we call "human," and living from that perspective. Consciousness creates matter so, for me, living spiritually is first and foremost. I direct my 3D experience with my thoughts alone. I do my best to pick the good ones!
