Yep, we all have our buttons, our prejudices and our conceptual structures around what works in the world.

Part of the Great Awakening involves first anons, but then more and more people, learning to recognize their own buttons, prejudices and conceptual structures for what they are: buttons, prejudices and conceptual structures; and that these need not necessarily define the world, or reality.

It's not an easy thing to do, but forward motion requires it.

all of us also will benefit from recognizing that the approach of "I trust this person" "I don't trust that person" is very often more about personal comfort and preserving one's internal comfort zone that it is about any practical outcome.

For example, there are some folks out there I believe are bad actors, but I trust them; I trust them to act and behave in a certain way (i.e. in a way that damages the Awakening or which attacks truth, etc.). It's not as if I don't "trust" them.

But either way, that trust has little practical effect. If someone "doesn't trust Elon" what does that mean? That you categorically refuse to consider any benefits to what he is doing? That you refuse to consider or evaluate his actions or impact in any positive way, but are always suspicious? Or that you keep your personal information away from him? Or don't loan him your car?

I reiterate: the whole 'trusting' thing is often more about preserving personal comfort zones (along with a treasured or 'idolized' belief system one has adopted) than it is about any real practical or productive effect.
