Untold millions (billions?) of people across the world are waking up to official lies, cover stories, and conspiracies.
These people are crossing the bridge, so to speak, to see what's on the other side.
The question is,
do they stay there once they've crossed over, or do they try to retreat
back to their former positions as ordinary citizens with dimmed
perception?
It's quite a trick to a) maintain the status of "normal person" while b) seeing through the enormous ruse.
In fact, in the long run, it's impossible.
Therefore, the
retreat backwards involves self-induced mind control. In other words,
the enlightened person un-enlightens himself. He re-educates himself to
accept all the lies he saw through.
He "rejoins the church" he once quit. And he does so with a fervor.
Not long ago, I spoke with a college professor who detailed that journey:
"About ten years
into my career as a teacher, I became aware that I was educating my
students into a whole series of official stories that were egregiously
false. So I began to expose the lies in my classroom.
"This led to a clash with officials at my school. I realized my neck was on the line. I had to make a choice.
"I decided to
survive. I went back to accepting what I knew was false. The process
by which I did this was...you could call it self-administered
brainwashing.
"I'm certainly not proud of it. But that's what I did..."
The teacher went
on to tell me he knew a number of other professors at various colleges
who'd done the same thing. They weren't proud of it, either, but they'd
made their bed.
In our society,
our culture, the see-saw is swinging back and forth. People are
discovering truth, and then they are denying its implications.
In some cases,
these people work for companies they know are part of the problem.
Others work for government agencies. Others are in the military or the
police. They're caught in the middle.
This is one reason
why we live in a Surveillance State, one reason why psychiatrists have
become far more important authority figures, one reason why dependence
on government is being pushed as never before.
The intention is
to drive people back into their lives as obedient citizens, as opposed
to free people who are seeing more and more of the truth.
Television, of
course, plays a central role in this effort. Aside from what is
laughingly called the news, the endless proliferation of crime dramas
and sports coverage fulfills the desire for well-defined outcomes:
Good triumphs over
evil. The good guys arrest the bad guys. One team wins, the other
team loses. It's clear-cut. Simple. With relatively few exceptions,
things resolve the way they're supposed to.
If the fictional hero is "fighting against the establishment," it's revealed he's really battling "a rogue element."
So the television audience can rest easy. It's all okay. The authorities are on the side of the angels.
People caught in
the middle tend to see retreat as their best option. They first looked
for some stable platform on which they could stand, in order to send the
old order to its demise, but not finding it, they opted for safety.
However, the itch and discomfort and the moral crisis don't dissolve. They remain.
It is in this tension that new ideas and new solutions are born.
We are brought up to believe that if something is wrong, there is a prescribed solution; if not, nothing was really wrong.
This is the big
lie. This is a prominent piece of mind control. It's successful
because official bodies are full of prescribed solutions. They appoint
themselves princes of solutions. They breathe and excrete solutions
every day.
Promoting and
bringing about a wider gulf between the rich and the poor is another
official strategy designed to force people to fall in line. Those on
the edge of sinking into poverty are less likely to step out and defend
conspiracy researchers and citizen reporters.
So it's all the
more unusual and forceful that we are seeing this relentless building
wave of anti-establishment research. It means that people all over the
world are fed up with the status quo and the official scenarios put in
place to protect it.
There was a time,
30 years ago, when the best way I could get information out was to give
lectures, have them taped on audio cassette, and send the tapes to
friends and allies.
Fortunately, that time has passed. Now, thousands and thousands of researchers are being read, seen, and heard online.
On some days, it doesn't seem like we're winning. But we are.
Keep it up. Find ways to cross that bridge from official stories to the truth and stay there. No one said it would be easy. It's always tempting to sink back into a trance.
But we do have an inherent desire to see things through. It's strong. It's compelling. It's real.
Some years ago, a painter friend sent me the following note. Its implications are universal:
"I used to be a
house divided. I knew the work I wanted to do wouldn't become popular
in the marketplace. I was torn in half. I knew how to please the
powers-that-be. But then it occurred to me: what would happen if I
catered to the dominant culture and still failed to prosper? That would
be the ultimate irony. If I went my own way, to the hilt, and did the
work I wanted to do, I would have freedom, and the joy of looking at
what I had produced. I wouldn't go to sleep every night wondering what
the hell I was doing. I would know."
That spirit is very hard to kill. In the long run, it's impossible to destroy it.
It keeps resurfacing, like a dream that is more real than waking life.
