Few minutes ago, one of our analytical contributors deleted his account. Don't know what happened, but hope he will remember: he, his insights into frequencies and symbols, were a true gift to this community.
Until we meet again!

I feel you, bro. Sailed, know. Trying to find purposeful, intense life again, but in every direction I look it's scorched culture and pointlessness.
It ain't just you.
Humanity was created with a purpose. When our predecessors fell in the Garden (however you want to interpret that story), it signified a fall into ignorance. We fell into ignorance about our purpose, and we have been grappling with this ever since.
In stages, the Creator (if you will) has been giving us upgrades and improvements in restoring the knowledge.
Various stages can be identified: Pre-abrahamic (no real understanding of the core of the universe), Abraham to Jesus (monotheism, but relationship with God is master-servant), Jesus to Current (monotheism, but relationship with God is adopted child - adopted parent).
However, while the Jesus to Current Time period is a serious upgrade over the previous stage, it does NOT address many core necessary issues that our God-given intelligence naturally wants to know. Foundational to that is an understanding of Why, How, What for, we are created in a way that harmonizes both our spiritual needs (which is to recover our connection with and unity with God and then each other) with our material needs (a scientifically grounded, logical, reasonable and empirical evidence-backed explanation of the why, the how, etc).
In the heart, we long for reunion with God and with our true selves. And this way was opened by Christ 2000 years ago. But in our minds, we also seek to understand, logically, rationally, why we exist, what for, what purpose? Surely there is more to it than a simple "just have faith".
Faith is a critical and absolutely necessary virtue, but ultimately, individually, and as a race, we need to move from mere faith into knowing. A child believes, an adolescent questions, an adult understand and knows.
Paul verifies this for us: "now we see dimly, as in a mirror; then face to face". When is "the then"?
Logically, we can understand that it is now. Is it a coincidence that biblically, it is approx 2000 (bibical) years from Adam to Abraham, then 2000 years from Abraham until Jesus, and 2000 years from Jesus until Now? Hmmm...
One way to look at the chaos of the 20th and 21st centuries is that we have come to the end of a biblical cycle, and what sustained us for the previous cycle is not now sufficient. We NEED to grasp and understand our purpose on a new, higher level, one that not only lifts our spirit, but one which satisfies the intellect that God created us with in harmony with that.
We're all looking for it. Our original nature will not rest until we find that which satisfies. The only reason that plagues like Schwab can get a toe-hold is that humanity has reached the limits of the previous cycle, and we now need the upgrade. Schwab and company are attempting to insert a fake and false upgrade, taking advantage of the spiritual and intellectual vacuum we began to experience around the 20th century.
If we can recognize the lies, the false nature of that 'vision', we are halfway there. But we need to find the real upgrade, the real meat, the true upgrade God has waiting for us. That upgrade should be able to clarify and reinforce what we know is true so far, but also provide a newer level of understanding.
"Now I know in part; but then shall I know, even as also I am known."
Hmmm. Even Jesus himself pointed to this.
"I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now."
Hmmm...
Although it isn't exactly overt, the scriptures are whispering to us from the past: "Be diligent. be faithful. You will be getting an upgrade in the future. Until then, stay strong.". As I said, it's not overt, but that message is most definitely there.
Spot fucking onspot fucking on
I actually think that the people who say they want to be intelligent have a greater potential than the people who assert against all evidence to the contrary that they are intelligent.
It's unfortunate that he felt that way and left but it's even more unfortunate that he deleted his account instead of just walking away because that action deleted all his posts and comments, thereby erasing everything positive/of value that he contributed to the community, the movement, the internet and the world.
Why is anybody that has a different opinion considered a "doomer"?
What if Elon has not flipped? There are lots of red flags indicating that he is trying to control the narrative.
We should question everything. That is not dooming that is critical thinking. That is who we are.
Ordinarily I would concur. But the last time I exhibited even a scintilla of critical thinking and questioned a “popular opinion” I got banned for 3 days and called a Doomer. So I won’t do that again.
It is getting ridiculous. :(
Lately this board has been too quick to bandwagon the latest thing without any digging or proof that the latest thing is solid and not just another half baked exaggeration that we wish were 100% true. I've been guilty of jumping in myself but I'm trying to resist.
And that's why I dislike socially taboo labels. The left use it to try and keep us in line, but our side does the same thing.
"Doomer" is BS, and always has been. Just like every label, it is way too widely applied for everything.
It's always amusing to be called a doomer by someone who has like 2000 imaginary engagement points on a ~140 day old account too.
Sadly we have our own snowflakes that are triggered by anything that attacks their paradigm. They have labeled it dooming. I miss VOAT.
Well, it seems that he's hitched his horse to our wagon and pulling hard in the direction we need to go. Let's appreciate that and capitalize on it as long as it lasts. If he changes or does other 'woke' things in the interim, evaluate those as they come but as long as he's helping us, I say welcome. ** We're not marrying the man,** we just need his help to expose the DS and he's giving it to us in spades right now. (Same speech I gave to a family member about Trump when I was told that his 'mean tweets' and multiple marriages are why not to vote for DJT)
Did you ask why the mean tweets and multiple marriages made him a bad choice?
You are right and watching Trump stay away is interesting....
I generally agree that we should question everything, but reading the anon's post last night and there was something "off". It sounded like s/he was at the very end of a very frayed rope, going so far as to say something along the lines of "you patriots" are just like the sheep, the WH just like the cabal. The gist of the post was that we should not be waiting for the normies to awaken and that, by doing so, the WH were just as bad as the DS. Personally I don't believe we are waiting for the sheep to awaken and not be too upset by disclosures, never have believed this and have stated so several times.
The anon was lashing out at others here who are content to hold the line with optimism despite the ongoing horrors we all see around us. Nobody here likes what we're going through in this country and in the world at large. People are dying. People are getting hurt. Lashing out at your fellow anons who aren't lined up with your precise idea of how this war should be waged, the timelines, the strategies, etc is simply not helpful.
I was going to reply to the anon, but my eyes were swimming in my head by that time and I needed to sleep. It seemed uncharacteristic for this anon, felt like extreme frustration was being expressed. I don't always agree with what the anon espoused here, agreed with some things, but always respected his/her opinions. Last night (early this morning) was different and even the presentation of the post was not the usual clarity of thought I'm used to from that anon.
If s/he wants to return at some point I'm sure s/he will, but it's pretty clear it was time for him/her to take a break. This is horrible stuff we immerse ourselves in every single day. It takes it's toll.
You touch on an important point fren. The hard truth is that we are engaged in a war, and just like in a kinetic war, soldiers get tired and need R&R. We all need to take a break once in awhile and retreat from the front lines to recharge our batteries. Some of us have been at this for years. day in and day out, with no real cessation in the battle. The anon you describe sounds like they are suffering from battle fatigue. An anon that suffers from fatigue displays a fatalistic cynicism stemming from hopelessness. They are overwhelmed. Like you state, it is hard to be in these trenches everyday and not have it effect us in negative ways.
When I feel myself getting to the point of crossing a line into frustration that leads to an emotional "lashing out," that's when I know I need to step back. I pray all of us fighting this digital war recognize when it is time to get some R&R. There will be others to help pick up the slack. We are, like or not, in this together. We did not chose this war. But now that it has been thrust upon us, we will defend what we hold dear to the bitter end if necessary. Quitting is not an option. Thanks fren for your insights.
I didn't get to read their last post. :(
Thanks for the summary.
How is he trying to control the narrative? What narrative anyhow? The whole of the left is still going ape shit over him buying twatter and stopping the censorship.
I’m sure I’m new at this compared to most. I’ve only been doing this since Obama’s made no sense. I only found you guys after the vaccine when I vowed to help expose the sickness. I’ve eaten dirt continuously at work for it, but I’m still going. I agree. I did not come here to lose.
Never give up fren. God's work is never easy and it's almost always lonely. --A Fren in the trenches.
It's not that they don't love to win, its that the kids these days don't hate to lose.
They still get a trophy.
