I bet you have heard the term illuminati before Q. I bet you had heard the pyramid with the eye on top had something to do with the illuminati (the freemasons is close enough). That's what I meant.
I also didn't know about any actual conspiracy until Q. I mean, I suspected several things. Like I suspected 9/11 was at least known about before hand by our government. I suspected it was allowed to happen or designed to happen to get us into a war. I suspected the Patriot Act was designed to bring us into a very bad form of government that no one was going to like very much.
But I didn't really know any of those things. I just chalked it all up to incompetence, or the doings of a few evil powerful people. I didn't have sufficient understanding of the bigger picture to have anything more than suspicions. I certainly didn't know that the entire 9/11 and/or Patriot Act thing was small potatoes compared to the larger actual conspiracy that had been going on for centuries or millennia. I was clueless.
But I had heard about the illuminati as a child. I've heard about them all my life really.
"Oh, that's just an illuminati symbol. It doesn't mean anything. They've been gone for a couple centuries and didn't really do much anyways."
"Oh, that's just another building built in the shape of an Illuminati symbol. No big deal."
"Oh, that's just ANOTHER park built in the shape of a pentagram with a statue of a pagan god in the middle. Yes, it's an illuminati thing, but they've been gone for a long time."
So many times I've heard that.
And I believed it every time.
So blind. I've been so blind. We've all been so blind.
Sleeping spell.
So I really can't recall hearing about illuminati except maybe? a handful of times before Q. And I ignored it because I dismissed it as some conspiracy theory - not true. I did know about the FreeMasons but not enough.
9-11 I chalked up to typical government bureaucracy mishaps - intelligence was too compartmentalized. Because my sister was a flight attendant and flying that day and I had young children that were in school (that I ran to pick up) and then I was more worried about how they were handling everything afterward, I was probably a little too invested in believing the government incompetence angle. Plus, since I've been in and out of government and/or gov't contractor jobs, I've seen that incompetence over and over. Similarly to you, I knew establishing DHS was not a good idea and the Patriot Act would be bad, but I was missing the background to know how really bad they would be.
What I really remember is a conversation during Geoge W's presidency, in a gymastics waiting room, with a conservative woman (whom I really liked and admired) who proceeded to tell me that her father had done a lot of reading and research on the Rockefellers and others and that the Bushes had a plan to build a highway straight up the US to connect Mexico to Canada. I really wish I had not dismissed what she was saying that night and instead taken the opportunity then to learn all I could about the NWO and the Bush family from her. I also thought she was nuts for homeschooling her kids and little did I know that I would be homeschooling my girls in just a few short years. Those memories still humble me and have made me a much better listener!
