It's something I've been aware of for years, but as with most simple things it can get easily overlooked.
People have been conditioned to believe that words are actions even whilst the 'actions' appear to be contrary to the words.
Virtue signalling is a prime example of this.
They got people to do it themselves, and to each other, so much so that when the MSM and government started doing it they just believed whatever the fuck they were told, without seeing that the actions didn't match.
This is how they convinced the world that Trump was the evil one, causing TDS, even though he did more for Americans in 4 years than any other presidents did in 40.
The question is, how do we help people start making their evaluations based on actions again, instead of what people say they are doing?
Honest response here, not being pithy. Bring back Christianity. 'By their fruits you shall know them' isn't just a glib line from a book, it's accurate advice. Then teach them to stand firm in Christ in the light of Truth, and not tolerate or participate in a lie. It is both harder and easier than it sounds.
I don't hide my faith, but I'm no preacher to convert those who lack the will to seek their own answers.
People usually do the opposite of what I say ... free will
I always say "Don't listen to the voice, watch the hands!"
To which people say, "but I can't see his hands!"
It's figurative
The million dollar question, indeed.
From a mile-high view it seems pretty clear that conservatives, people who actually work, those with a relationship with God have consistently maintained their focus on actions.
Progressives (often called liberals because most once were...kind of analogous to real Jews and the 'Synagogue of Satan') seem to clearly be the ones most taken in by the false reality. Their inconsistency throughout history, their general aversion to carrying their own weight, and their lack of a relationship with God can't be purely coincidental in this context, can it?
Might be psychologically analogous to the drowning mice post a week or so ago. Those who feel they have a net to catch them will push on (even beyond treading water), those with no foundation to stand on let themselves go...yet can't commit either way so end up clinging onto the coattails of those who float, whilst trying to deny their predicament via forcing everyone down to their level. Apparently not realizing that their 'level' is supported by those they target and it's lowering will drop them even further.
Maybe just stumbled upon the key to all of this...I used to be hard-set against 'everyone can be saved through Christ', prescribing more along the lines of 144,000 get saved. Could this be the underlying reason for Christ's incarnation? God realized tough love made it worse and the 'safety net' had extended for them to feel like they could move forward? Obviously they've proven to be the toughest of students, still reluctant to humble themselves, still rebellious against those who 'deserve' to be saved instead of learning a emulating.
Can't thank you enough for this OP...even if I'm missing the mark this opened up a door for me that I was blind to.
Jehovah's Witnesses preach that 144,000 saints in heaven nonsense. One of them tried to tell me that back when I was in high school. I immediately replied that he should read the rest of Revelation 7. There were 12,000 sealed from each tribe of Israel. Then Verse 9 says: ". . . a great multitude, which no man could number, of all the nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne . . ."
Also, most people miss Verse 14 which says: "These are they which came out of the great tribulation . . ." This destroys pre-trib (along with other verses).
One should read the Bible repeatedly and study it.
Yea, sorry to get you riled up (not sorry actually, good to see that in response :p) I worded that poorly...was trying to use that as the other extreme end of the spectrum to note I've been that side of 'center'.
I've never held any denomination or been a member of a church. My faith and relationship with God has been personal, salvation of others being something unsaid. Which makes sense in retrospect...it's none of my business, and often times trying to intercede has the opposite effect one intends.
I was just correcting the 144,000 stuff for everyone. So many people read that one verse and stop.
It’s called learned helplessness. It occurs under conditions of high serotonin levels flooding the brain...all the kids on SSRI’s.
There is absolutely no possible way to break their cognitive dissonance, the only ones who can break their brainwashing are the ones who did the brainwashing
well, they repeat the lies daily, over and over. this works on a lot of people, especially when it seems very fearful. others are not so easily hypnotized. it took years for me to fully breakout of my programming, and i still discover deeper layers as time goes by. They say even when an authority figure confesses the lies people have been taught to believe and reveals the truth, the brainwashed will continue to believe the lies. most people are taught to believe authority figures, so that is why they constantly drag out fauci to reinforce the programming.
Literal hypnosis
Language is incredibly important. This is why everyone who disagrees with them is a ‘fascist’, it allows them to dehumanize them. They’re constantly changing definitions to suit their cause.
Agreed, and ever wonder why they pushed abstract modern art? same reason, obscuring reality allows them to embed hidden messages in it, aside from money laundering. their symbols will be their down fall.
