It's a curious question. Why are some of us awake, and others not?
Some, but I don't think too many, attribute it to intelligence. However, the truth is that there are many, many highly intelligent people who are firmly stuck in the grip of the Matrix. Moreover, many people perpetrating evil are consciously intelligent. For some people their intelligence actually works against them.
My response to the "intelligence" thing is ... nope, that's not it. It's not intelligence. Maybe it's heart. Or awareness. Or something, but it's not being smart. Something special, but what?
A fren suggested "a Questioning attitude?" This got me thinking.
That's part of it. Or should be. I mean, many people DO arrive at truth nodules because they begin to question. But then, why do people question? What makes us question what is going on?
Also, some, once they arrive at a level of awakening, they stop or slow down the questioning. After all, it's not easy to consistently apply a questioning mindset while simultaneously settling into convictions and beliefs that are solid because of questions previously asked with satisfying answers found.
Question too much and one can easily become cynical, or a disbeliever. Or question too much, and one becomes an ineffective morass of constant doubt and distrust.
An ever refined balance between questioning and knowing, between questioning and affirming / believing, this seems to me to be what is required. But I don't think that's why we are here, or why we are awake and not others. After all, working on the balance between questioning and holding conviction is more a fruit or task that comes after waking up.
What about humility? Is humility the reason that some are awake, and others not? Does humility make us receptive to information that wakes us up?
I don't think so. Some of us are downright arrogant, some are kinda snooty, some are cocky and not exactly humble in the face of ... anything. etc. In fact, some of us, in our conviction, seem to think we are most assuredly "right" in our views, even to the point of conflict at times on the board.
No, to some extent, humility seems incidental.
Where my mind or intellect fails, I will often go to my gut. And this is what my gut tells me: it's spiritual.
There is a spiritual foundation behind each person, comprised of the merit in their lineage, or history, or other factors that make them a suitable object for being awakened. God's universe functions on the principle of interaction, of establishing reciprocal relationships again and again, connections that allow the flow of different forms of energy, whether in the form of grace, beauty, benevolence, piety, joy, material energy, etc.
Thus, as we live, we accumulate or dissipate, we grow or damage, a capacity to give and to receive, to offer and to respond.
The awakening we, humanity, are now experiencing, is in fact (in my view) the results or fruits of a constant spiritual influence that is steadily increasing its work, which is in fact the culmination of many, many, many untold years. The terminology you use to articulate or describe this reality may vary. Whether you understand it as the work of the Holy Spirit, the influence of spirit guides, good karma or the touch of the Creator or Christ in each heart, the point is, the Source of Love is reaching out and moving people to wake up.
Seeds are planted, long before we wake up. The seed may have been planted when you were young, when a teenager, or an adult. It may have been via a small bit of information, and subsequent other drops of information, that finally coalesced into an idea, a thought, about something, and then that thought bubbled forth into a question, or a series of questions, into an inspiration that led you to look in this forum, or that forum, or investigate some idea, or ask what is really going on. All the time, your growing heart and mind has been fed, with information, but also with spiritual energy.
But how and why would that spiritual force (whom I personally believe and understand as my Heavenly Father) reach out to some and not to others?
It's clearly not a religious faith thing, because there are many believers of all faiths, none the least Christians, who are still asleep, who do not really question, and who go along with the matrix narratives.
My conclusion, at this juncture, is this:
It is love. Simply, and purely love. So then, what kind of love?
A LOVE for truth.
Some folks love the truth, they yearn for it, they want it, it calls to them and their hearts respond, and drives them to seek out truth. What the truth is often appears differently to each one of us, but it is real, and it calls to us. If one loves, even unconsciously, truth, then I think that is the spark inside each heart that our Father the Creator is looking for and when he feels it in us, even if it is deeply buried, then he begins the process of responding to, and feeding, that love.
Love for truth. It burns in men's hearts, and in the hearts of women. It is deeply entwined with the love of freedom, because truth in its most purest form, frees. So, the love of freedom is virtually inconceivable without the love of truth.
I think people all around the world today are waking up because the seed of the Love of Truth has been planted in their hearts. And even if the form that Truth takes appears different to each one, it nonetheless calls to all of us, and on that foundation, we begin the journey, the process, that leads to awakening.
Q? Q is a gift to America, and the World, from God. The one driving the Great Awakening is also using the Q operation as His instrument, not the only one, but a powerful one nonetheless. Yet, we each have different and varying understandings of Q too, right? Why?
The form of Truth appears different to each of us in some way. Because each of us is unique, our relationship to the Truth is also unique. Each of us has a unique angle on the truth that no one else has. Thus our take on Q is also unique in some respect. We share universal aspects, understandings, but we als each have a unique angle as well.
And if we truly love the Truth, then we should also respect the unique nature of each person's relationship with the Truth. Not see each other's different views as a threat, or something to be denied, but something unique from which I may be able to learn.
Because each one is unique, our relationship with the truth, like our relationship with God, is likewise unique. Irreplaceable. We don't need to agree, but somehow, we need to respect, that relationship.
But also, as we draw closer to the truth, we will naturally draw closer and closer to each other. Because the Truth is one, despite the limitations of each of us to grasp and realize that truth. We're all on that journey, drawn forward, on some level, by our love of truth.
Most of us affirm that this is a spiritual war we are in, and as a spiritual war, it means the origins are spiritual too. The reason why some are awake and others are not? It's essentially a spiritual reason, and that reason is love. On whatever level it is, and we're all on different levels, but nonetheless I think the deciding factor is an inner love of, longing for, yearning for, the truth.
When I thought of this, another thought emerged into my mind, one that fills me with something I find it hard to articulate, something that moves me more and more and more. The thought I had is this:
If we could translate our love of truth into love for each other as well, what a powerful forum, community, movement, and world this would be.

LOVE.
UNITED NOT DIVIDED.
SHEEP NO MORE.
Q
Two things help me, I am autistic and introverted.
In this case by introverted I mean that I am internally validated instead of externally validated. I will not disappear if others do not approve of me socially. This is very important if you are going to hold a set of ideas which run counter to the mainstream.
Some of my social contacts will survive me holding ideas counter to the mainstream and even if my social fitness suffers, my income and psychological health will weather it.
For a lot of normies, their social family and professional life relies on their not rocking the boat, especially if they are externally validating. Peer pressure works on these people. They have everything to lose. They cannot afford to diverge from the mainstream. If these are people of integrity, then even secretly holding forbidden ideas is uncomfortable, because they want their internal values and external values to match. These people will work really hard to avoid holding non mainstream positions and will reject being redpilled if they possibly can. My very intelligent wife is in this category.
While dealing with intransigent normies is very frustrating because they are directly enabling the cabal and all the murder and misery, I recognise how difficult it is for the normies to change direction.
When the herd turns, then the normies will. I think the herd is turning now.
This makes a lot of sense my friend. Let the herd turn.
Very important insights here, PoU. The ability to not need approval from the "tribe", or at least needing less approval from the tribe is something I strongly believe is consistent across the people involved in this fight.
Where I struggle is the "why". The lack of a strong need for external validation, a desire for truth and the mental fortitude to see the world as it is rather than what we want it to be are qualities that I believe bind all of us in this battle.
But how did we get them or develop them? For you, you have an explanation to at least some extent. For me, as far as I know I am not on the spectrum. I was not guided on this path by my parents the way I've guided my own son towards critical thinking, acceptance of reality and rejecting the need for approval from the herd. And I suspect this is the case for many of us.
And I strongly suspect you have a strong need to seek the truth and have the mental strength to accept that truth even when it's deeply unpleasant. I don't believe that can be explained by being autistic.
My question is probably a more metaphysical one than anything else, but the people fighting this battle are the pivotal group on this planet right now. I wish I knew why we are the way we are.
Maybe a need for external validation is a developmental thing, something developed in early life by our situation.
I think that if development occurs in what appears to be an unsafe environment, then people can be anxious for validation because they are programmed that they need it to survive.
This kind of thing is a factor in personality types and also in personality disorders I think,
I feel I have shifted my external validation to God, He is the only one I care to please and when I view the world as a place that is consumed with the thought of ruining my presence with God, I question all things before me and look to him and his word for guidance. But I know atheists who are awake and I know devout Christians who have been vaccinated. In other words, I don't know the answer, but the thought of why Im "different" or "awake" and others I know are not, really baffles me on a psychological level. I'm thankful for whatever it is that has set me apart but it would be nice to know what it truly was to better break the conditioning of others.
Amen. Used to be called God fearing. They don't fear Kid they fear other men.
Very good points/ideas, PoU. My psychology degree is of the "armchair" variety, but I would tend to agree that a strong need for external validation can often point to either a bad environment as a child or a personality disorder in adulthood.
What's disturbing is that a strong need for external validation appears to be at an all time high right now in our populace. One only has to take a glance at social media to see that sad fact.
And I struggle to think of any historical account of a Republic being won by a group of people desperate for validation.
I think that indicates that our whole population has been conditioned by gaslighting and emotional abuse. We are Stockholmed and have to please our captors even though they are capricious.
Finally, someone mentioned personality disorders. NPDs are control freaks. Their false self image of knowing better than everyone makes them feel entitled to control others. They think they should take away other peoples’ earnings and make the spending decisions for them. This disorderly feeling of being entitled to control others is the same thing as leftism, the desire to control others through big government. NPD sufferers can’t take honest constructive criticism about themselves because it’s too threatening to the fragile false self image they have carefully curated for years. Similarly, they can’t take criticism of big government, because that would mean that the NPD was wrong to empower the government, and the NPD is never wrong and can never be wrong. So any stories about government corruption are just false conspiracy theories, meant to loosen the NPD’s control of others.
Roughly, deniers of the truth are leftists, and leftists have cluster b personality disorders to varying extents.
I've never quite had the courage to put that into words because it sounds like it is medicalising politics, but I think you are right.
It's a huge can of worms.
Great way to put it - external approval from the tribe. Explains why the most indoctrinated people are those from universities and those clinging onto worldly things and the establishment.
introverted too. sometimes tried to be extroverted when I was younger/very stressful, hard to be around too many people and interact with them. curious to know how many of us are INFJs?
INFJ here. Life's tragedies gave me the strength to be independent and rely on the validation of God's existence. I am an outlier in almost every category, but since I've made great life-long friendships, people are willing to hear me out. My role in the awakening is to demonstrate the willingness to question - and to disconnect from "entertainment" and "news" and still be entertained and informed.
good description, also feel like im here to get people to question. was an only child, so comfortable in myself/belief. always related to the child in the Emperor's New Clothes; trying to get people to 'see' the obvious.
I used to be an INFP. I think I have shifted to INFJ or INTJ.
INTJ here
One of us. One of us.
INTJ here too.
INTJ here.
Same. INFJ, although I do have some T-leaning tendencies.
yeah I think that happens, I can fluctuate with FJ and FP, but Always have an N- think that's intuition without double checking.
I’m an INFJ
looks like there's a few of us:)
Total INFJ here
you might like Frank James on YT if you haven't seen him. does 16 personality skits and his own type is infj. does a great job portraying WTF/I'll just go over here and read;)
🤚🏻Wish there was a two arms and hands up emoji
You also have confidence and the courage to stand apart from the crowd.
Thanks! That goes for all of us here including the lurkers.
Oh definitely. I've been online most of my life. I saw how people were immediately resistant to the LGBT shit being pushed strongly on Tumblr and other sites, and how quickly they were shut down and beaten into submission. It was a slow process but I watched the collective opinion shift bit by bit.
More recently on Tiktok, I'm seeing people brave enough to challenge the narrative and people in the comments saying things like "Wow, you actually said what we're not allowed to say. You said what we've all felt for a long time."
I'm seeing formerly leftist leaning sites like 9Gag and Reddit starting to lean right as well. Reddit still has a long way to go, but that's only if you don't believe the site is 80%+ bots and shill accounts.
