We're all pretty aware by now of the train derailment that occurred February 3rd in Ohio. This Board has a lot of posts related to it, especially in the last few days.

If you read through the comments on Twitter threads, or elsewhere, you will see a lot of fear stemming from information chaos.

What is information chaos? In my opinion, it's a purposeful disruption of truth so that the most prominent outcome is fear, confusion, anger and other unproductive emotions with the ultimate goal of preventing (or at least delaying) consensus that can lead to the people taking action.

At this point, I can't confirm that the black clouds in one guy's video are smoke or actual storm clouds. I can't confirm if burning the chemicals was the lesser of evils compared to trying to clean it up and allowing it to soak into the ground before it could be cleaned up. I can't confirm if the entire Mississippi River and delta will be polluted from the Ohio River, or not. I can't confirm if the chemical cloud has made the farmland useless for eons, or not. I can't confirm if everyone in PA and NY will get cancer in the next 3 months or not. And on and on and on.

Things happen. Often by design, but not always. But for sure, everything big like this that does happen will be used as an opportunity to undermine the effectiveness of, and thus the trust in the information sharing mechanisms we have in place and the sources that people like to go to... it's another form of division.

Back in 2005 or thereabouts the saying was, "You can't trust everything you see on the internet." Now it's "You can't trust anything. Period. Ever. Fuck the internet and that guy who said this or that, because I have MY source, and I'm too fragile to think differently."

And that's EXACTLY where the Cabal wants us, in my opinion: with no ability to arrive at consensus about the truth [Which is the beauty of THIS BOARD!]

So, my plea for those who have read this far is to simply say this: We have to figure out a better way to brand either the Q community or Truth Social or something else as THE source of fact (without abandoning the responsibility to dig and learn what you can on your own). And, to make things worse... the Cabal is already ahead of us on that--ChatGPT is going to quickly become the source of "fact" to replace Alexa, which replaced Wikipedia, which was the easy answer for lazy people.

Sorry... I don't have a suggestion just yet. Just sharing my observation for now.

Is it Friday, yet?
