It's all so tiresome. I have to agree with you that most of the people I know and meet have either fallen into a deadly slumber or perhaps were never really conscious to begin with. On my charitable days I tend towards the later. Most people just want to belong and will believe the most ridiculous things to enable that. I sometimes feel like it must have been like to be an astute Roman in England after the legions had withdrawn. I can see everything slowly getting worse but its a slow slide.

Yeah, agreed. As long as most people can belong to a 'community' and have basic pleasures, their 'bread and circus', they would accept anything, literally anything, no matter how ridiculous or evil.

What's your solution to it though?

Solution. There's the rub. When I first discovered this damning phenomenon I felt like I was living on the edge of history--able to watch it real time but outside its grasp. I have spent a few very unsatisfying years trying to lift the veil under which my friends and family seemed to want to live. I have had VERY limited success, if any at all. I have had people begin to avoid me and even ridicule me, however. It's one thing to say, "Well, they weren't real friends after all." But it is still painful. I find myself keeping my own council when I meet new people. Luckily, I've made a few new friends as well. It's almost like being in the closet. I suppose I find myself waiting for a champion, a Spartacus figure.

I feel you about people - despite all this 'they weren't real friends', it's still painful. And I also met new ones.

But I don't think we should wait for Spartacus though. We should become one instead, each of us.

Although I have suggested this, at times half-joking, I think that stupid people should not be allowed to vote. How stupidity is determined is just a detail. As a policy, I can't think of a better way to improve the quality of politicians and government. Dumb voters get dumb government. We're flush with both.

I agree with this very much, people will do anything to feel loved. What they don’t realise is how much Jesus loves them that he gave his life. I teach my kids to be brutally honest in any circumstance unless they are being hurt.

Ohhh Alex - you express my frustration so well. I have been pondering on this for quite a while. I think my awakening has been along the same timeline as you. I've decided that it is actually a curse to have a combination of a high IQ (I did the Mensa test when I was a teenager, but it has probably declined a lot) + a high degree of natural scepticism. The consequence being that I feel I'm trapped on a planet of stupid, gullible people and I have to live with the consequences of their stupidity and gullibility and worry for the future of my children and grandchildren.

Definitely Brave New World territory, as you say. I don't even know any longer who the good guys are - if there are any. The bad ones - including the ones you refer to - advertise themselves, but if we can't save ourselves (because we have no power and nowhere to run to) - who can save us? Maybe there are some freedom-loving states within the union that will decide to secede from the union? (and accept refugees from the UK 🙏🏻); then those who are happy with their brave new world slavery can stay in their totalitarian hell holes and the rest of us can live free.

Yeah, I've been cursed with high IQ, natural scepticism and developed intuition (especially on bad things) as well, so I feel you.

Your solution with few free places in a Brave New World is tempting but I doubt that our dark overlords will let it happen. Just like Sauron, a Dark Lord from another great novel against tyranny, The Lord of the Rings, our fascist elite won't stop until it will have conquered the whole world, even small unimportant Shire. That's why I'm afraid no retreat is possible - either we will win or them.

I envision another option though - parallel structures and parallel societies. That is, there would be grassroots movements and parallel structures within the Brave New World. Example - if global fascists will ban any farm food, people would start growing vegetables at home illegally and share it with their friends. If they will ban anyone from entrance to public transportation without digital ID, their friends would provide their cars as a public transportation for them, and so on. Ofc, if they'd go totally totalitarian and will ban both petrol and private property and ownership completely, that won't work but we aren't quite there yet luckily and won't be there while Americans still have guns.

P. S. Thanks for your pledge by the way, I do really appreciate it!

Alex, as one who shares a high IQ I understand the frustration of not being able to help others to see what we do. That's what drives the constant need for seeking answers. I just got around to listening to a podcast on Odysee w Francis Leader and Jerm on the Black Nobility. (She has it posted on her SS) She presents an extremely concise explanation of what is going on in the world today. While it is depressing, she stresses the need for the truth of this to be known by all. I hope you and everyone here will listen and you will not give up using your voice and platform. If our situation is to be reversed it must be ASAP.

Alex -I don’t really give a shit about these dumb sleeping Dem sheep and whether they will wake up.

Their weak brain has been captured and all they know is Trump is bad and Dem (no matter how crappy) is good. Can’t fix that kind of mind controlled stupid

I would rather see these asshats die off - I am not spending one ounce of energy or 1 dime to try to “save them”.

Bring on the bird flu or whatever shit they have invented and let them get jabbed - hopefully that jab will work fast and they with die off without me waiting. And don’t worry about your children or grandchildren. If they are in your sphere of influence they will be smart and independent like you

The WEF wanted ppl dead that took up their air and food. Useless eaters. Well, I am OK with ppl who lost their brain and courage. Useless citizens

Hey Alex;

I feel your pain at day 1173 post reading of Agenda 21. My fishmometer alarm went off in 1990. The Persian Gulf War. There were many sketchy details there too. When the sweet little Kuwaiti girl was testifying to US Congress, October 10th, 1990 that Saddam's troops were stealing hospital equipment, incubators and the like. Tossing new born babies to the floor to take the machines (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nayirah_testimony)

The story always seemed "produced" to me, a little to convenient given the war had just begun. This made me suspicious. I lost my faith in the government the day it came to light that it was all a lie, she is the Daughter of the then Kuwait Ambassador to the United States.

It's been nothing but a reality show since then, I mean we had four years of Celebrity President where each week a new contested was tossed out of the White house, a circus. the crazier the better. When you start placing all the pieces together since 1990 (The start of Agenda 21) the scope is astounding really. My top 3 players before October 19, 2019 were the USA, Russia & China (obvious I know but it seemed like {keyword 'seemed'} they were about to start having it out, I was prepared for that. I was not prepared for Agenda 21. That an Elite cabal even existed I thought was pure fantasy. I read that diabolical plan in complete disgust that it would even be possible in this day and age. Then things got even crazier with Covid 19 (clear to many it was man made and blown completely out of proportion), then Weather Modification (Chem Trails, severe weather, drought) Directed Energy Weapons (Fires in Canada, Lahaina, Texas, Chile and Turkey) which only proved Agenda 21 was indeed real. Since that day, 1173 days ago, I have been shouting as loudly as I can on Socials with a few hundred followers getting no where. Then I was directed here. Here I feel like I am in a realm of normalcy, with real, thoughtful, people. My hope has been renewed.

I say let's Love Bomb the Socials, starve the Elites of Money (they are using to kill us) by not "consuming" what do the Younger's call it these days, Quiet Quitting? We see what happens, reverse brainwashing so to speak. Think of it as an experiment in psychological engineering, its working for the enemy. :-)

Thank you for your message! In 1990 I was a lil baby and had no idea of all that xD Also I lived in Russia back then and we had totally different problems back then.

But I think Ukrainian war was the first waking up sign for me as for a Russian, there was something shady about it all along. I mean I understood Ukrainian people desire for integration into Europe which led to Maidan protests in Ukraine, and Putin's desire to keep Ukraine under Russian orbit. But when Maidan protesters violently overthrew legitimate Ukrainian government with a little help from American Victoria Nuland? And when Putin further escalated by immediately seizing Crimea in an illegal way (when he might have bought it out) and provoking Donbas people to rise against Ukrainian new government but NOT taking Donbas into Russia back then like Crimea for which he was criticized by Russian patriots? I knew it was a two men con already.

I moved to Finland then and there in Europe mass Muslim immigration opened my eyes to another con. And when as a gay man I expressed legitimate concerns over proven by facts homophobia of Islam and was called 'racist and Islamophobic' for it, I was sure. And then TDS and Brexitophobia came....

Agree with your solutions though.

I don’t know much about Crimea, but this time Putin went into Ukraine because Zelensky gave NATO permission to set up a ‘small’ 2000 troop base above Crimea along the Russian Border. That broke an agreement between Ukraine and Russia not to invade each other, I believe it was created after Crimea.

So Putin of course came back and said Na Uh, nope, niet, NATO wouldn’t back out so Putin went in. Can’t blame him for protecting Russia. I am still on the fence with Putin however as he is a graduate of the WEF Young Global Leaders program way back in 1993. Ukraine IS a Proxy war for the WEF’s takeover of Russia which is why the rest of the WEF Loyalists keep propping Zelensky up.

While this is all happening NATO was waiting out the induction of Finland and Sweden into NATO, the day after Sweden signed in, NATO launched the largest Allied military exercise EVER with over 600,000 troops participating. They are hanging in the Baltic sea, practicing for what? Gee I don’t know, invasion?

Then of course we have the middle east. Syria is NOT a part of the WEF which is why the USA is in there terrorizing them and won’t leave. We have Israel fighting Palestine and Iran (all 3 are WEF loyalist countries) those wars are planned to cause as many civilian casualties as possible.

We no longer see news of what is happening in France, Germany, the UK or anywhere else, divide and conquer, they don’t see whats happening here, we don’t see whats happening there. You, as I, can see the big picture but the sheeple aren’t putting 2 and 2 together.

Of course you must have relatives and friends still overseas to keep you in the loop? Any information from overseas please pass it on :-)

Heh, why even smart WEF aware people are buying Putin's lies. He's 100% WEF puppet and double agent in the Kremlin, as a Russian I'm 10/% sure of that.

Putin knew Klaus Schwab since early 1990s and Schwab installed him into Kremlin. They were ALWAYS in contact since. Putin attented WEF gathering in Davos on 13th of October 2021 just before attacking Ukraine, and they coordinated their actions here.

Putin still didn't opt out of WHO and scamdemics shit. Putin launches arsons in Siberian forests to push for climate scam. Putin and Sberbank are launching digital ruble and digital ID in Russia too. All WEF agenda is being implemented here safe maybe trans shit but that's only because Putin knows Russian conservative society won't accept it, hence he's not forcing it here, same as EU doesn't force it in Poland because they won't accept it either.

Putin attacked Ukraine 100% under WEF order and against best Russian national interest. US and WEF needed this war, not Russia, and it solved nothing.

In the contrary, it served WEF goals. If Putin didn't invade, Finland and Sweden would never have joined NATO. If Putin didn't invade, Germany would never have frozen Nord Stream 2. Also, over 300 thousands of Russian young men died in Ukraine, and Ukraine regularly bombs border Russian regions like Belgorod, sends drones all the way to Moscow, launches terror attacks in Crimea. This war drains Russian economy and military. Putin destroys Russia under WEF orders. He's 100% traitor and WEF puppet and every his word is a lie.

No one has ever said Israel doesn’t have a right to exist. Were you physically present to witness Hamas attacking Israel? We can’t believe anything we see or hear via the media (TV, internet, socials). All of the Media/Internet Corps are loyal to Agenda 21 and exist to spread the Elites propaganda and subliminal brainwashing.

Agenda 21’s purpose includes disrupting Society globally and they will do whatever they have to to make that happen. If you don’t think lying is on the list your sadly mistaken. As I mentioned Israel and Palestine and IRAN and most of the countries on this planet (176 of them) are aligned with Agenda 21 and a Global Fascist Regime.

Genocide was committed in Gaza full stop, terrorism is just a word to strike fear into our hearts a word that didn’t exist until the Gulf War in 1990 the first salvo in the Elite plan Agenda 21.

Terrorism is part of the Disrupt Society plan. Make the people terrified for their lives and they will fall into line when the time comes. The new world order is going to offer safety from Terrorism, food and water shortages (because of the Drought they have created) as incentive to join their regime at least those of us they don’t de-carbonize right off the bat.

Support Israel by all means, innocent people live there too but to claim that anyone attacked anyone when we have only the Elites word for it is shortsighted in my opinion.

Israel and Palestine are working together. Humanity seems to have forgotten that the Palestinians took in the Jewish after World War II and cared for them, NOT ISRAEL.

Israel is Loyal to Schwab and Agenda 21 and always has been. Do the innocents in Israel deserve to be protected from a terrorist group? Yes they do. However, do we know for sure Hamas actually attack Israel or is Hamas an excuse to go into Palestine and commit Genocide unimpeded? Can you believe what you have seen and heard on the News and Socials? Is there any Proof that any Terrorist organization even really exists outside of an excuse? Or could it be Plausible Deniability for Agenda 21 activities?

The world knows that the Bin Laden’s had ties to the Bush Family and were involved in Halliburton the big $$$ winner in the second gulf war. Nothing is as it seems and hasn’t been since 1990 when the United Nations officially adopted Agenda 21 with the first gulf war.

Today the 99% are facing a cabal consisting of 176 Countries (maybe more now), over 300 Corporate Partners and all of the Global Acronyms. If you think this is BS take a look at the WEF Global Future Councils structure: https://www.weforum.org/communities/global-future-councils/ then look at Israel and Palestine and Hamas and Terrorism etc. again.

I was saying this exact thing to a friend yesterday. It is as if you read my mind. The totalitarians have taken UK, Poland, Germany, Australia, Canada, France, and I’m probably missing a few, and they still promote Russia as the ultimate communist threat. If you listen to the news you would think you are in the Reagan era before Mr. Gorbachev tore down that wall. I feel like I am fighting to preserve liberty for my grandchildren. Their parents seek debt slavery and have no clue that there is a connection between their vote and their pain. Trump is their bogeyman and I am “brainwashed.” Sometimes I think I should just go fishing and let them have the world they are dead set on creating, I’m a boomer so I won’t be around for the worst of it. Then I look at the precious faces of my grandchildren. J.D. Vance was 100% right when he said “if you don’t have children, you have no skin in the game.”

Well I don't fully agree with Vance - I don't have children yet I have more skin in the game than all blue voters with children. It all depends really. Generally, kids make people care more but not always - there are a lot of careless Democratic parents, and bad parents who trans their kids, and there are a lot of childless and gay conservatives too. So it's not just about kids, it's about basic human decency.

Agreed with the rest you said.

Expand full comment

I'm not knocking people without kids, warriors for liberty come in all flavors. I think the point is that having kids and especially grandkids gives you a generational view. The focus on what you are leaving to future generations is more real when those progeny are right in front of you. People without children who take a generational view are more the exception than the norm. Narcissists also bear children, but it is easier to maintain narcissism when you aren't waking every 3 hours to a screaming infant. It's also true that married women are more likely to be conservative than unmarried women, but many married women with children are crazy woke. Generalizations are used to make a broad point, but are never going to accurate on the individual level. I appreciate your talent for starting the conversations that need to be had.

I remember watching presidential election on Election Night in 2000. Gore was winning in Florida and then suddenly Bush was winning. Of course, Bush's brother, Jeb!, was gov of Florida but that had nothing to do with it, am I right? From there on it just continued to get worse, as they showed us exactly how they stole that election. Gore caved like a tired old lady and didn't contest that election; meanwhile Supreme Court illegally declared outcome, which they had no right to do. I knew then something horrible was afoot and sure enough less than year later we had September 11, 2001, another day that will live in infamy. It was all downhill quickly from there.

I live in a country where state-issued QR codes were required to enter public buildings or use transport. People were ecstatic about it, of course, and it was mainstream to want to live under QR code and niqab mandate literally forever. They saw their QR codes as their reward for being such nice people, and were delighted that the not-nice scapegoat was being tormented. It occurred to me then that if one of the enthusiastic supporters’ QR codes were switched off by the government at some time in the future for any reason, he would not then realize the horror and injustice of living under a regime that picks and chooses who can go where, but rather, he would believe, at best, that the totalitarian system should continue even if the government had made a mistake by targeting him.
