The sick depravity of this world is crushing. Are every single one of them gays, pedos, trans? Seeing this has made my faith stronger as there must be a force of good purity when such evil exists.
Edit: wow I didn’t look here all day because of work and family stuff and come back to see the mods stickied my post! Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
The news about the Dali Lama picture with his tongue out and apologizing is what made me post this. I wasn’t sure it was true but not only did I see the picture but he also admitted it was true.
My wife is asleep. She actively avoids conflict as to not disturb her calm. It is painful to deal with. I'm an "anti-vaxxer" and in a "cult".
Ask her why she hasn't divorced you yet if you are such an awful cult person. Probably because she must have some doubts about what she thinks is the truth and if the shtf for real, she knows that you will know what is going on. Right now she can still hang with her same friends that are still asleep without worrying and living her life like normal.
My husband is quiet and doesn't say much about what's going on or politics until he gets pissed, then he will start a conversation, otherwise he doesn't want to talk much about some things, because he already knows what's going on, he takes everything in, it's just that talking more about it pisses him off because he feels he can't do anything to change things. But if the shtf, I'm very glad he is here beside me, because then all bets are off and he can be very resourceful. I know he will get us through anything that comes at us.
The crazier things have gotten over the past year the less and less she questions my "odd" behaviors since 2020 like when I took up prepping and stacking precious metals and engaging in "alternative medicine".
This is why normal people won't be waking up to others liking. Because they have a different reaction than the people that would suddenly become less productive, more depressed, isolated, and angry but "glad to know the awful soul crushing truth" over obsessing on every horrible thing that happens on this earth. Every day.
My experience of the people in my life is like yours. I know a 100 guys exactly like your husband. They aren't less alive than you, but it sure can be intoxicating to pretend. But no, I'm glad you get it and allow eachother to live and don't demand such control over eachother.
Ask her what's more cultish: Doing exactly what corporate pharma tells you to, or skepticism of corporate pharma and its criminal history?
Solar, my husband is not asleep, but does not want to talk about subjects from GAW. He says "until I see it then I will actually believe it". I said "that's exactly what Q said...you can't tell the people; you have to show the people". He didn't really care for my response since I was quoting Q. My husband picks & chooses what he believes when I discuss it, but he was more than happy when I decided I wasn't taking the vax(and I am a nurse) because of the research that I did and when we both got the Coof I told him to refuse Remdesivir...and he did.
I have great sympathy for you in this situation. Being with someone and being lonely is excruciating. The flip side is that there is nothing quite as sweet as feeling accepted and understood, and if you aren't it's awful. Family does not know what it takes out of us to endure their disdain.
I suggest you read up on the Enneagram type 9. You may find some insights about her perspective. We have had several relationships in our family that have become easier to navigate understanding more about their Enneagram types. Hope this is a fraction as helpful for you as it has been for me.
I think you nailed it. In the past, my daughter has mentioned Enneagram a couple of times. Many years before that I studied up on Myers-Briggs. I get it. People are just fundamentally wired differently. This is a good reminder that my wife is just wired differently. She lives in the present and tunes out all of the "noise". It doesn't help that weapons grade propaganda is preventing her from hearing the truth.
My wife is indeed a type 9. I'm not going to take the test, but I know myself well from Myers-Briggs and history. I would be a type 5 with a six-wing. "The Problem Solver". In my work profile in the past I had "I love to solve problems." I'm also a visionary. One former colleague called me "The Oracle". At my best, in my work, I can usually see at least two years into the future; if not more. This has caused me a great deal of frustration; contributing to me recently quitting my job of over 20 years.
Yeah, Enneagram type 1 and INTJ here, married a wonderful 5 and have a 9 parent who is willfully asleep. I have a son who we criticized harshly until we learned that he is an 8 (like Trump), and that clarified a ton of things. Now we know that it’s an expression of love and respect to “hit him back”, lol! But yeah, I recommend reading the profiles on type 9 to get further inside what makes them tick. Some insight into that can often help steer clear of the things that aren’t likely to change in them and find things that you can change on your end that are perhaps easier than you have been thinking.
