Admittedly, Patriots.win has way more users, there's a bit more energy over there, and they're more up-to-date with new habbenings as they come. It's also an amazing place to find memes.
But the ANXIETY there is off the chart. That's what I love about this place. Most of us here actually believe that nothing can stop what is coming, and that God wins in the end, so we're really pretty calm.
I'm a big sports fan. After many years I came to a realization that I never really enjoyed winning that much. I just hating losing so badly that winning was a relief. A win just meant I could relax a few more days until the next game, where we might lose again.
it wreaked havoc on my emotional state. The right loss could literally ruin a whole week for me. I'd be screaming out for joy one minute, then screaming at my sisters to get out of the living room cause they were bad luck the next minute. I was a monster watching games live.
So one day I decided I wasn't going to watch the games of my favorite teams live anymore. When the outcome is up in the air, everything that happens until the end of the game is just too stress-inducing. I decided just to wait and see who won. If we lost, I wouldn't bother watching. Without the details of the game burned into my brain the sting of the loss didn't hurt so bad or last so long.
I'd only watch if we won. At first I thought this would be boring, but on the contrary, it was awesome. Since I already knew we won I could truly relish every moment. When the other team scored I wouldn't get upset, cause I was basically just watching a movie. I could literally sit and eat popcorn and just enjoy it. It was like "Oh so THAT'S how we won this game..." for 90 minutes instead of chewing on my fingernails.
Over here, we believe that nothing can stop what is coming. We believe that at the end of this movie, God wins. We believe there's a plan, and that the drama that we see will have twists and turns, but that nothing is always what it seems, so we relax, keep an open mind, and explore different ways of looking at things rather than freaking out all the time.
I feel sorry for the guys over on the other site. I know what it's like to have an outcome, and one as critical as the fate of our country, and even the world, up in the air. Hell I can't hardly stand it when it's only sports. But here, we believe that we know how this movie ends. We walk by faith, not by sight. And that's just a better way to live your life if you ask me.
What's more likely, that Trump suddenly became a moron, and can't see through the bullshit that the rest of us see through and can't recognize a RINO when the rest of us can, or that he's trying to prove to the world, and to us, that we can be rational, free-thinkers who do our own research and arrive at the right conclusions on our own?
How can a Great Awakening ever occur otherwise? How can a Great Awakening take place if we're just as dependent on Trump to do our research and thinking for us as the rest of the world is on the Mainstream Media?
As I've said before, I trust Trump completely. That doesn't mean I trust everything he says and does at face value. It means I trust that whatever he's doing he's doing for a good reason, and that the onus is still on me to figure out right and wrong for myself.
No, I don't think Trump trusts the vaccines. No, I don't think Trump actually believes in Dr. Oz. No, I don't think that if we don't elect him we'll be sorry we didn't listen to Trump. I think Trump 100% wants us to see this for what it is, and is trusting us to do the right thing and to turn right even when he suggests we should turn left.
He's not looking for blind obedience. He's trying to take our blinders off permanently.
No idea what's causing it but my wife even came and found me and seemed concerned so I know I'm not crazy.
Seriously guys, I'm really getting sick of this. Yes, it's important to learn how to research, but remember when they invented the calculator and the teacher kept telling you how important it was to learn to do it on paper, and yet...there's a fucking calculator?
This place is our calculator. Nobody is going to take anyone else's words at face value, true. And we shouldn't. But the truth is not everyone knows what everyone else knows and we're not going to learn what everyone knows if we keep sticking our noses in the air and saying "look it up yourself."
You looked it up apparently, do us all a favor and show us where you looked. It will help get us all where we need to be a hell of a lot faster.
I firmly believe that this is the true nature of the Great Awakening. Not to just wake the world up to the human trafficking, etc., but to help us solve ALL the world's ills by helping us take our power back.
For too long the world has relied on experts to do the heavy lifting for us and tell us what to think. The Cabal knew this and exploited it. Critical Thinking had left the building. People's faith in themselves to sift through the data and arrive at their own conclusions had left the building.
Then Q came alone. Did Q give us the answers? No. Did Q become the new authority? No. Q merely asked questions and got people digging. And this I believe was Q's main goal.
This is the real plan to save the world: getting people to realize that we could leverage the greatest communication tool in history to cut through the bullshit, expose the corruption, and save ourselves from "the experts" and those who fund them behind the scenes.
Who do you trust now? Doctors? Lawyers? Politicians? No. And that's a good thing. They're not special. They aren't privy to special knowledge. They aren't any smarter than the rest of us.
In fact, in many cases, their eyes are more blinded than ours have ever been or ever will be. They're limited by the structures that gave them credibility in the first place. They're limited by the diplomas they have on their walls, by the organizations that gave them those diplomas.
Just look at all the doctors during the plandemic and how often they followed the CDC blindly against their better judgment for fear of making waves, upsetting the organizations that gave them their medical licenses, and shut their eyes and ears to the evidence as they pumped basically healthy people with Remdesivir until they drowned in their own lungs.
The Great Awakening is a shift from this perspective. It's realizing that all our structures have become corrupt, but that we have the tools to expose them, tear them down, and create new structures. Critical Thinking plus widespread instant communication will save the world (and maybe Jesus).
It's time we all take responsibility for our lives and for our health and for our families and stop being lazy and stop relying on the experts, and especially not headlines, to do our thinking for us.
Hey guys, a while back I asked if you could provide me with some good sources that have compiled studies that show the value of Ivermectin. I had read so many over the past couple of years but never actually compiled it so when I talked to my wife about it I didn't really know where to go to retrieve the info. You guys came through and delivered in droves. It was overwhelming. I loved it.
Do you have similar sources for the 2020 election fraud? I'm back on Twitter now and want to start thumping some of these drones who keep parroting that no evidence of fraud was ever found. I've seen gobs of it but can't retrieve it quickly like I'd like to. Any help would be again greatly appreciated.
Be careful.
There's a difference in saying "I'm not sure we should trust him yet" and "Don't trust him." The latter is an assertion that can blind you longer than necessary. I think it's wise not to jump too soon to lauding any particular person just because in a particular moment they're saying or doing something you agree with. Every RINO ever said or did something their conservative base agreed with.
But it's also unwise to be persistently cynical. It lowers your vibration, kills the faith of those around you, and if you spend too much time defending a particular position, you often take too long abandoning that position when it becomes clear that you were wrong.
"I'm not sure we should trust him just yet" is, in my opinion, a much wiser stance to take on the subject of Elon. Maybe he's cabal-turned white hat, maybe he's a trojan horse meant to look like one. Either way, Twitter has apparently already obliterated tens of thousands of bots almost overnight, have reinstated some high profile conservative accounts, and have turned off at least some of their suppression algorithms allowing high profile conservative/pro-Trump accounts to gain more reach and visibility.
These are good things. They could be part of a ploy by the Deep State to get conservatives to trust Twitter again and stop them from moving to Truth Social, but regardless, they're still good things.
Remember, if nothing can stop what is coming, then any move the Deep State makes simply hastens their demise. A good analogy would be stepping into quicksand. The Deep State is sinking in quicksand. The best thing they can do is not move. That will allow them to survive the longest. The clock is ticking though, and they're going to sink anyway, so just like people do when they're in quicksand, they start trying things, causing them to sink faster.
If this Twitter thing is a Deep State ploy, it will backfire, and hasten their demise. I'm sure of it. They damned if they do, and damned if they don't. They tried blatant, over the top censorship and it backfired. They think loosening the reigns a bit will help give them back some control, but they're wrong. Truth is light. You can't suppress it forever, but if you let even a little bit of it out, you risk accelerating your tyrannical demise. Nothing can stop an idea whose time has come.
Trust is a funny thing. At this point, Donald Trump has earned my trust. Do I trust/believe/agree with everything he says? No. But he's done and said enough over a long period of time that I now trust why he says it. In fact, I fully expect him to lie at times. I just trust myself and my fellow Patriots to spot when and why he's doing it. And I think he trusts us to do that too. It's why I think he's seemed so pro-vaccine after leaving office. I know he knows what we know about it. But there he is, apparently pimping it left and right. Why? I think we all know why. He had to. It was part of the plan.
Look, we haven't had a really solid public win in a really long time. Don't be so cynical that you miss the boat on this one. It's invigorating. Breath it in. Whether Elon is legit or not, this is an important moment. Either it's a move by the white hats or it's a move by the black hats that will backfire and hasten their demise. For me, the jury is still out on Elon. But so far, so good. I think we all have room to celebrate right now.
"Everyone remembers where they were during 'The Blackout.' You?"
"That was a little before my time." (It happened sometime between 2019 and 2049)
"Mmmm. I was at home with my folks. Then ten days of darkness. Every machine stopped cold. When the lights came back, we were wiped clean. Photos, files, every bit of data, gone. Bank records, too. Haha, I didn't mind THAT. It's funny, it's only paper that lasted. I mean, we had everything on drives. Everything, everything, everything. Hm. My mom still cries over the lost baby pictures."
Found that part of the movie very interesting.
Yes it's wise, if you live in a system like ours, to buy gold and silver as a hedge against hyperinflation (which is likely coming soon enough to justify buying some now), but from my understanding there's no way physical gold and silver can meet the needs of a global economy long term. There just isn't enough of it. If you want to peg the dollar to gold you can. It's worked before. But it's not necessary. We don't have booms and busts because our dollars aren't pegged to gold or because they aren't technically worth the money they're printed on. All that matters is that it's printed by our government (not as debt) and is legal tender for the payment of taxes and all public and private debts.
Unless someone here can explain how "Money Masters" is wrong about all that?
I recently did a similar post about the movie "The Adjustment Bureau" here: https://greatawakening.win/p/142B0yTy2m/q-comms-in-2011-matt-damon-movie/ for those who are interested.
So, first, a word about "Unbreakable." I was 17 years old when I first saw it (coincidence?). It was instantly my favorite movie, and it has been ever since. I've forced every girl I ever dated to watch it, including my wife, and a sizable portion of my friends throughout the years. It captivated me like no other movie ever had before, and it still captivates me to this day.
I think I know the reason this story inspires me so much. It's the same reason the story of Christ inspires me. It suggests that human beings can be much more than what they appear to be, if they can simply get themselves to believe it. But as my Q eyes have been opened, I now see much more in this story. It is, I believe, a type and a shadow of Q and the Great Awakening.
The story is about David Dunn (funny, the main character's name in "The Adjustment Bureau" was also David), a security guard who works at Temple University in Philadelphia who miraculously survives a train crash that killed every other person on board. After the funeral of his fellow passengers, David finds a note on his car from the owner of a comic book art gallery asking him if he's ever been sick.
The man who wrote the note's name is Elijah Price, played by Samuel L. Jackson. Elijah has a rare autoimmune disorder that makes his bones extremely soft and brittle. Both his arms and his legs broke in several places at the moment of his birth, and by the time he meets David Dunn, he has had 54 breaks throughout his life.
This is a classic technique to get you to like a character. George R.R. Martin, writer of "Game of Thrones" once said that it was weakness and suffering that endears us to characters. It's hard not to like and root for Elijah when we've seen all he's been through. Not only do his bones break, but he's teased at school for it, referred to as "Mr. Glass" by his schoolmates.
On top of his own personal suffering, we're drawn in to like him even more as we watch his sweet, single mother, do all she can to empower him and raise him right despite this massive handicap. One day, after Elijah breaks his arm when he was around 10 or 11 years old, his mother leaves a present for him across the street at a park where children, who might as well be human bowling balls to Elijah, are running to and fro without a care in the world.
After braving these elements and crossing the street he opens the gift and finds a comic book inside. His mother tells him that she's bought "a whole bunch", and that there will be one waiting for him on that bench every day, anytime he wants to work up the guts to go out and grab it. An absolutely heartwarming moment in the movie. How do you not root for that kid?
After receiving this note from Elijah (by the way, I think it bears mentioning that Elijah was a prophet who was instrumental in bringing an end to Baal worship in Old Testament Israel) David, who's been stunned by the realization that he'd never actually been sick before, goes to the comic book art gallery to inquire as to why Elijah wrote him that note.
Elijah reveals to David his condition ("osteogenesis imperfecta") and shares with him his theory that there must be someone on the opposite end of the spectrum from him--someone whose bones don't break. He reveals that whenever a horrible disaster occurs that results in many deaths he waits to hear news people say a very specific series of words: "There is a sole survivor, and he is miraculously unharmed."
Over the course of the movie, David and Elijah become friends. Elijah encourages David to embrace and test his physical strength, and the intuition that seems to alert him to when someone he's touched has recently committed a horrible crime, in order to fulfill his destiny, to go where people are, and to fight crime just like a superhero.
After David slays a veritable Goliath who has recently murdered the mother and father of a small family, David fully embraces his new identify as a secret superhero, lets his son in on the secret (who's already his biggest fan), and mends things with his wife whom he's had problems with ever since he quit playing college football for her 20 years ago (she hated violence--so he chose her over football).
There's a beautiful and terrifying twist at the end of the movie though (which was foreshadowed earlier by Elijah's mother, who literally says "I hear this one has a surprise ending").
When David is attending Elijah's gallery show a few days after slaying this giant psychopath who killed the parents of that family, Elijah holds out his hand for David to shake, presumably in congratulations, but then, David, upon making contact with Elijah, sees in a vision that all the disasters that Elijah said he had followed on the news, hoping to hear the words I mentioned before, including the train wreck that David survived...were actually caused by Elijah.
This was the penultimate cinematic moment of my entire life. Never before had a writer managed to draw me in so well into loving a character, only to discover that not only is he not a laudable character, but he's actually a hyper egotistical mass murderer. I honestly couldn't sleep the night after I first watched it, that's how much it shook me.
The sequel to "Unbreakable" didn't come out until 2017 ("Unbreakable" was released in 2000) and it was called "Split" starring James McAvoy. The brilliance of this film though is found in the fact that M. Night Shyamalan didn't tell anyone before he released that it was in fact a sequel. He even removed the final scene from the movie that reveals this for the critic screening so that no fans would be tipped off before going to see it.
Suffice it to say, when I heard the music from "Unbreakable" start to play during that last scene in "Split", and I saw Bruce Willis in that diner at the end, I basically shit myself. I mean, i literally started crying and calling every person I had ever made watch "Unbreakable" and begged them to watch "Split" without telling them why just in the hopes they could have a similar experience to the one I had.
Anyway, the third installment of this series was called "Glass" (presumably because of Mr. Glass, Elijah Price) and it really tied things up nicely. I actually just watched all three movies again today with my wife and a few friends, and the entire experience was incredible.
But now to the Q comms I found throughout the three films.
1.The main character's name is David (oddly, the same as the main character in "Adjustment Bureau") David is 718 in gematria ("think mirror" makes it 817--I always look for 11's, 17's, and 45's in movies now)
2."Think mirror." Glass is another word for mirror. Just like Split is another word for Broken, or brittle, the opposite of Unbreakable. M. Night does several scenes where he uses mirrors to tell the story. One scene is filmed entirely through the reflection of an old television set. Mirrors are found constantly throughout the movie, usually involving scenes with Elijah.
3."Watch the water." David's cryptonite is water. The one time he was ever sick or injured was when he was in elementary school and some kids were dunking him. He's been fearful of water ever since.
4.It's 107 minutes long (there's 1 and 7 again)
5.Opening scene mentions 172,000 comics are sold in the U.S. every day (17)2,000.
6.The number of the train David was on that crashed: eastrail 177 = (17)7
7.The number of passengers who died: 117 = 1(17)
9.Elijah mentions he has had 54 breaks in his life ("think mirror" 45, Donald Trump)
9.When Elijah comes to find David at his work at the Temple University football Stadium, he arrives at gate 17c. David gets a call on his walkie talkie that says: "Dunn, it's Jenkins, we got a guy at gate 17c with a bogus ticket. Says he knows you. He won't tell me his name."
10.M. Night waited 17 years to release the sequel to "Unbreakable", "Split." Its U.S. release date? January 20th, 2017. The exact same day that Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 45th President of the United States.
11."Split" is about a man with Dissociative Identity Disorder (D.I.D.) who's managing 24 different personalities within the same head. The two things that triggered this fracture of the mind were the severe physical and emotional abuse he got from his mother as a young child, and his abandonment from his father, who we later learn in "Glass" didn't abandon him at all, but simply died on the same train crash where we met David Dunn (Bruce Willis) 17 years earlier (he didn't know this though).
12.In "Glass" we see the number 17 pop up at least 10 times. Usually on computer monitors with security camera recordings. It's pretty obvious and at one point I had all my friends yelling "there's another one!"
13.We learn near the end of "Glass" right before David, Elijah, and Kevin (the D.I.D. guy) all die, that the person they have thought this entire time was a well-meaning therapist who was trying to help them cope with the delusion they all supposedly suffer from, was actually a member of a shadowy cabal who knows there are people with these abilities, but are afraid that if the world learns about them, they'll spring up all over the place, and they're not ready to see the world take off on its own like that just yet. They've been controlling things "for 10,000 years" and they see no reason they should stop now just because some people who think they're superheroes actually became superheroes merely by having faith.
14.They don't succeed though. Elijah fulfills his mission. Unbeknownst to this shadowy cabal, Mr. Glass, the mastermind, never actually intended to "go where people are" to wake the world up at the new "Osaka Tower" which is dubbed "Philadelphia's tallest building" (Babel?) to the reality of David and Kevin's superpowers. It was all a ruse to get the cabal to attack them while they were still at the asylum, where Elijah was livestreaming all the events that were taking place there and sending them to a separate site. After Elijah, David, and Kevin's death, that video footage gets emailed to Elijah's sweet mother, David's faithful son, and Kevin's almost-girlfriend. The three of them post the content online, and they sit back and watch in an Amtrak station as people's phones start to go off and as the world experiences a great awakening of sorts. Elijah's mother at this moment says "I know what this is. This is the moment we're let in on the universe."
15.It bears mentioning what Elijah said right before all this happens: "There are unknown forces that don't want us to realize what we are truly capable of. They don't want us to know the things we suspect are extraordinary about ourselves are real. I believe that if everyone sees what just a few people become when they wholly embrace their gifts, others will awaken. Belief in oneself is contagious. We give each other permission to be superheroes. We will never awaken otherwise. Whoever these people are who don't want us to know the truth, today, they lose."
That line by Elijah really hit me. It reminds me so much of that moment when Simon Peter stepped out of his boat and walked on water just as Jesus had done. People often forget that it wasn't just Jesus working miracles in the New Testament--faith made it possible for others to do superhuman works as well. I think we should all keep that in mind.
16.Another amazing quote by the evil (or is he repentant?) mastermind, Elijah Price: "Everything extraordinary can be explained away, and yet it is true. I think deep down you know this. Everything we will see and do will have a basis in science. But it will have limits. This is the real world, not a cartoon. And yet some of us don't die from bullets. Some of us can still bend steel. That is not a fantasy."
17.At the end of the movie, after our evil cabal therapist thinks she's won, she's in a comic book store perusing, and hears one employee say to the other about a character names "Mastermind": "He's too smart. That's why he's the mastermind. He'll never tell you his real plan. He sets everybody up. Gets them looking in one direction."
Sound like someone we know? Trump? Q? Both? Disinformation is necessary.
Anyway, there you go. I invite all to watch all three and see what they find. If nothing else you should be entertained, if not Q inspired, like I was.
I know this will ruffle some feathers, but as far as I'm concerned, true Christianity can only be found in Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, James, and Revelation. Anything written by Paul is suspect, and given the fact that it reads so contrary to everything written in the other books I just mentioned, I don't think it should be given any place in the Bible at all.
Saul was a Talmudic Pharisee. You don't just become a Pharisee. Just like the Masons, you have to work your way up, taking blood oaths and committing heinous crimes every step of the way. In fact, it's the same order.
Paul's take on the gospel reeks of Old Testament idolatry to me--grossly underplaying the importance of living righteously, and never once even bothering to mention anything Jesus actually taught during his ministry, which was essentially a list of commandments he actually expected people to obey. He simply replaced a golden calf with a cross. I'm not going to give him the same credit I give those other books just because the satanic autocrat, Constantine stuck them all together in one binding.
I need all the peer reviewed studies that show that Ivermectin has been effective. I've seen you guys drop like 50 links to different studies at a time. That would be really helpful right now. Hydroxychloroquine too. If my wife wants data, I'll give her data. But I need your help.
*Edit - here is a link to the study she sent me that she thinks is now definitive proof it doesn't work. What do you spot wrong with this study? Thanks in advance. https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04920942
**Edit - Thanks to everyone. Great stuff. Such a great community.
So...a little backstory. I was raised Mormon. I'm not anymore. I stopped attending about 12 years ago. I'm not sure what I would call myself now. I think agnostic is probably a fair enough label. I'm not convinced that God and the Devil are real. I'm open to the possibility of it, but at this point I'm just not convinced. I tend to think of God and Satan as anthropomorphized/personified notions of good and evil. To me, they're ideas, but powerful ones (but I admit, if Satan were real, that might be exactly what he'd want me to think).
For a long time though, whether I thought God and Satan were real or not, I never believed that there were actual devil worshippers. To me it sounded like a silly Christian boogeyman. I figured you either believed in God or you didn't. I'd never seen or heard of any churches with his name on them (until recently), I'd never met anybody claiming to worship the devil, and I figured that if I ever did, they would probably just be doing so to seem edgy, get attention, or troll their Christian friends or relatives.
I'm no longer under that impression. It's become clear to me now that there are in fact many people out there who (secretly) worship Satan, or at least the idea of him, and I think those people are very, very dangerous. Because they'll never tell you what they really believe. Because that's part of the deal they make when they join the club. They'll tell you anything except the truth. Why? Because they'll die if they don't. It's all part of the deal. This movie that someone posted the other day sealed it for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7G5CKX0je0
They are, who Jesus said were "wolves in sheep's clothing." And we now know that they've been around thousands of years before Jesus was even born.
I know this won't be a popular take, but in my opinion, Mormonism is a pretty damn good religion all in all. As the refrain goes, Mormons are by and large God-fearing people who WANT to be good people and TRY to be good people. I live in Utah and I love it. It's basically the American paradise that I hear many of you feel you've lost wherever you happen to live.
We're pretty racially and ethnically homogenous. Violent crime is rare. Everyone knows their neighbors. The women are beautiful. Unemployment is always low. The "homeless" (really just drug addicts) population is very small compared to most places. It's great. And I know for a fact that much of that can be attributed to the prevalence of the Mormon Church in this area.
It's also great if you're an Exmormon, like myself, because nobody appreciates a party quite like someone who couldn't attend any (at least with alcohol) for the first 20 some odd years of their life, and nobody quite understands what it's like to leave Mormonism like a fellow Exmormon, so I really do love it here.
Anyway, where Mormons tend to fall short, in my opinion--and this seems to be the case with any organized religion that I've seen in person--is that they CAN get a little too hyper-focused on keeping the "rules" to the letter at the expense of basic human compassion. They often come off as pharisaical and judgy to other members who are less concerned about strict adherence (it's not uncommon for strict Mormon parents to alienate their "wayward" children, making them feel like their love is conditional--and sometimes it is) and fake to outsiders, who sense that their friendships with them are invariably impacted by their secret (or not-so-secret) desire to see them converted at some point ("every member a missionary" is a common refrain in Mormonism).
The idea that they're the one and only true church of God and Jesus Christ also puts a bad taste in the mouths of other Christians, who tend to view the Book of Mormon as heretical, their founder, a false prophet, and the rituals they perform in their Temples a bit too culty for their liking (many active members would also agree with that last bit--if my dad hadn't been there with me the first time I went through it I probably would have walked right out).
And while I know that modern Christians love to say that Mormons aren't Christians--that they believe in a different Christ--and while I understand their rationale for saying that, which seems largely rooted in a very literal, dogmatical reading of Paul's take on the Gospel specifically (in my opinion at the expense of all other takes), and while at one time I may have been tempted to use that same argument myself since I wouldn't mind if a few more of my family and friends would join me outside of Mormonism (man, I'd love to have a beer with my dad someday), I really can't in good conscience agree with that take. The rank and file Mormons, without any question (I can't speak for those at the tippy top though) believe in Jesus Christ. The same one from the New Testament that you believe in. End of story. Don't try to argue with me on that. It's not even the point of this post--which I promise I'll get to soon.
So again, while I'm personally very convinced at this point that The Book of Mormon is a work of fiction (as evidenced by anachronisms found throughout the book, as well as programs that have scanned the text and compared it with that of other books Joseph Smith would have had access to back in 1830, showing too many correlations to not be considered source texts--as is always the case with fictional works, among other things) I still find the Book of Mormon satisfying, inspiring, and at times, eerily prophetic.
For those who don't know, in the book there are two main groups of people stemming from one Jewish family who believed in Christ long before his coming thanks to visions and dreams from God. As the story goes (and I do consider it just a story, so lay off) this family left Jerusalem around 600 BC, right before the Babylonians invaded Israel and carried everyone captive back to Babylon for the next 70 years, and traveled by land and by sea all the way to the Americas. Their "land of promise."
Once they arrived, the group that followed and/or descended from Lehi's son Nephi were called Nephites. Those who followed and/or descended from his son Laman, Lamanites. Nephi is generally depicted as "the good son." He believed his father to be a real prophet receiving real instructions from God, which he determined by praying and receiving his own vision from God, and thus, happily followed his father out into the desert without complaint and on a trek that eventually led them to the American continent (his brothers Laman and Lemuel were not so convinced, complained the whole way there, and they went their separate ways shortly after arriving).
But whether it's true or not, the book is super interesting when you take into consideration the fact that Joseph Smith was rumored to have been a 33rd degree Freemason (the ceremonies in Mormon temples being likely the chief evidence of that, but also on the day he died, as he was falling from the jail window where he had just been shot, he was also heard screaming what many believe was the first portion of a Masonic cry for help that the Freemasons were supposedly bound by with an oath. He reportedly yelled "My Lord, my God!" as he died. The Masonic cry for help is "My Lord, my God, is there no help for the widow's son?")
But more interesting than the temple ceremonies, within the book, which is supposed to be a condensed version of nearly 1,000 years of ancient American history, the character named Mormon apparently finds it important enough to tell us a story of a secret society that sprung up in ancient America that was founded by Satan worshippers, or rather, by Satan himself, appearing to those with lofty dreams of fame and fortune, teaching them how to lie to get what they want, and how to murder, and steal, and subvert and bring down entire nations without getting caught or punished.
In the story, their existence first became known to the Nephites when a man named Kishkumen and his fellow "robber" Gadianton accidentally made their plans to murder and supplant their chief judge known to someone they thought was part of their club but was actually a double agent (he apparently knew some of their secret signs which managed to fool Kishkumen). He killed Kishkumen, but Gadianton got word and went into hiding. They were thenceforth dubbed "The Gadianton Robbers." Here's what Mormon says about them:
But behold, Satan did stir up the hearts of the more part of the Nephites, insomuch that they did unite with that band of robbers, and did enter into their covenants and their oaths, that they would protect and preserve one another in whatsoever difficult circumstances they should be placed, that they should not suffer for their murders, and their plunderings, and their stealings. And it came to pass that they did have their signs, yea, their secret signs, and their secret words; and this that they might distinguish a brother who had entered into the covenant, that whatsoever wickedness his brother should do he should not be injured by his brother, nor by those who did belong to his band, who had taken this covenant...And whosoever of those who belonged to their band should reveal unto the world of their wickedness and their abominations, should be tried, not according to the laws of their country, but according to the laws of their wickedness, which had been given by Gadianton and Kishkumen. Now behold...these secret oaths and covenants...were put into the heart of Gadianton by that same being who did entice our first parents to partake of the forbidden fruit—Yea, that same being who did plot with Cain, that if he would murder his brother Abel it should not be known unto the world...and he has brought it forth from the beginning of man even down unto this time.
If that doesn't give you chills, given what we know today, you might wanna check your pulse. Cause that right there...that IS the cabal that we're dealing with today. They may go by different names, but the goal, the methods, and the source, are the same.
So, I find it very interesting that Joseph Smith chose to include this in his book and pass it off as an historical record.
It reminds me of a man I learned about in college as an English major named Geoffrey of Monmouth. He died in 1155 AD. Before his death he published a book in Latin titled De gestis Britonum or Historia Regum Britanniae (The History of the Kings of Britain). This is where we find the original stories of King Arthur.
For several hundred years it was believed that the stories in the book were true. He claimed in his dedication that the book was a translation of an "ancient book in the British language that told in orderly fashion the deeds of all the kings of Britain," given to him by Walter, Archdeacon of Oxford, but modern historians have dismissed this claim. In it, he traces the lineage of the monarchy and the people present in Britain at the time back to Brutus of Troy, who was the son of Aeneas and the notoriously beautiful Greek Goddess, Aphrodite.
It's believed by some that his goal in writing this book, and passing it off as history, when he likely knew it wasn't, was more than simple fame and fortune (after all, he was very old by the time it was published, and the printing press had yet to be invented, so it would have been hard to capitalize on that) but rather, it was his genuine attempt to inspire his nation to become something more than what they were, driven by the belief that they were descended from beautiful gods and mighty, noble, well-educated warriors, who had traveled to a land set apart for the settlement of fair-skinned angels (England literally means "angel land").
Joseph Smith, the son of two school teachers, likely had a copy of that book growing up, and was likely aware of the story behind it. Could the Book of Mormon have been that kind of a lie? Was the story he told about its origin what he viewed at the time as "necessary disinformation?" Could he have been hoping to inspire people, and maybe, warn the world about the Freemasons and their true beliefs while maintaining some semblance of deniability?
I don't know, but it begs the question, why did he use Freemason rituals in his temples in the first place? And if he was going to use them, why did he change them so much? Is it possible that he thought that the only way to fight a vast, evil secret society was by creating a good one that used similar methods but with a different aim?
It bears mentioning that much ill has been written about Joseph Smith throughout history. He was rumored to have been a secret polygamist. It's well-documented, but in light of what was in the book, and what we know about this vast secret society today, which includes their grip on the media, I'm starting to wonder how much I can really believe about what's been said and documented about him.
It's funny, one reason he's been maligned by history is for burning down a local printing press he claimed was printing lies about him (mainly about the polygamy thing). Was he a dictatorial philanderer trying to silence dissent and keep his sins hidden from the world...or is it possible that a greater plot to destroy him, his reputation, and his work was afoot, because of what he revealed about the Freemasons, and in his desperation, saw no other recourse than to burn down a seditious and libelous fake news outlet?
Could Joseph Smith have simply been another victim of fake news, the way we've seen with Donald Trump today? Do we really think this ancient Satanic cabal that has been secretly running humanity behind the scenes for millenia only recently realized the power of the press? Is it impossible to think that maybe, just maybe, they've been using that tool, and the good faith and naivety of honest Christians as a weapon against them long before the creation of CNN and Fox News?
Is the Book of Mormon really an ancient record of an ancient American civilization, revealed to Joseph Smith by an angel named Moroni, and translated into English by the gift and power of God? I don't think so.
But one thing is absolutely certain: there exist among us, and often above us, a secret society of people who believe in God just as strongly as you and I do, but who love darkness more than light, and see Jesus Christ and his followers as their mortal enemy. We know this now.
And Joseph Smith laid it all out for the world to see way back in 1830.
Make of that whatever you will.
Ok so first off the movie ended in 2009, but was released in 2011 (11). So there's that. But my ears perked up the second time I heard the number 17 used. I forget the dialogue at the time but it was the second time it was used in a short period of time and it was referencing different things so at that point I put my Q goggles on and really started paying attention. Here are some things I noticed.
David Norris (Matt Damon) is a young (obviously liberal) Congressman from New York (Trump is from New York) who decides to run for Senate, but a couple of fairly mild, but apparently important scandals that the media jumped all over lead to him losing his first bid and he goes back (the first was a bar fight he got into the night he won his congressional seat--which some people loved and saw as "authentic" and a week before the election he was up in the polls when a video of him mooning his friends at a party in college was released.)
This led the media to saying he wasn't mature enough for the position, that he didn't have "the temperament" for Washington, and the people bought that idea hook, line, and sinker. He loses badly. So he's in the bathroom at the Waldorf hotel rehearsing his concession speech but unbeknownst to him there's this beautiful woman, Elise (Emily Blunt) sitting in the one of the stalls hiding from security for having crashed a wedding upstairs, listening to the whole thing.
She finally makes her way out when his ramblings start to get a bit too personal and she levels with him, and tells him exactly why she didn't respond when he first walked in, and how after he started she felt like she was in no-man's land and just couldn't say anything and yada yada, they totally vibe, he says maybe losing is a good thing because he's looking forward to some time alone away from the cameras, she calls bullshit and then they kiss.
Now, I looked up the script for this movie online. And there's some dialogue they actually cut out here that I also think is telling. See, she tells David in the movie that she was hiding from security because she had just crashed a wedding that was going on upstairs, but she didn't mention which wedding. But check out what it says in the script:
David: What are you doing in here? (the bathroom)
Elise: Hiding from security.
David: Oh...what did you do?
Elise: Crashed a wedding. One floor up.
David: It's almost midnight. They just caught on now?
Elise: Ivana Trump finally realized I wasn't her niece. I think after the fifth glass of champagne my Czech accent started slipping.
It doesn't stop there though, in the script online I typed in the number 17. It's listed exactly 11 times in the script. One of those 17 times it's just the page number, but regardless, it appears on that physical script exactly 11 times (it's my understanding from this forum that 11 is some kind of lucky number, obviously 17 is Q).
The next time it appears in the script he's asking a Taxi driver to take him to "17th street, between 10th and 11th" (there's that 11 again)
So this is where I'm really getting autistic but the coincidences are really just starting to kill me. I googled 17th street and 10th in New York City and what do I find there? A pizza parlor called Artichoke Basille's Pizza.
Ok well, New York City has a pizza place on almost every corner, so maybe that's not such a coincidence. But I went to their website to see if anything else stood out, and wouldn't you know it, Artichoke Basille's Pizza has...wait for it...17 locations across the country. I don't know what that could mean, but fuck me, that's another 17.
I also did a little digging into Artichoke Basille's Pizza. Went through their instagram posts to see if any comet ping pong looking stuff popped up. There were a few pictures of kids eating or looking at the pizza--they could be construed as a little weird but not really. There's one post with a girl holding a pizza slice up covering her right eye supposedly to show off the size of their pieces but that made me raise an eyebrow, but there IS a picture of Macaulay Culkin from Home Alone 2 in the back of a limo eating pizza and apparently drinking wine, so that could be something I don't know. There's also a picture of a woman holding a slice high above her head with the pizza slice pointing down at her face and she kind of looks like she's eating balls to be honest, but the painting on the wall behind her is the more interesting part I think. It's got two eyes with a third eye painted above them where the third eye supposedly is. The caption reads "OG vertical slice eating + #art / dope background? Can we make this a thing?"
I don't know. The whole page seems pretty innocent to me, just those few images that have my spidey senses tingling a little bit. But there you go.
Anyway, as they exit the bathroom security spots her and she runs off without giving him her phone number. He's disappointed but also invigorated and inspired by his little encounter, and when he walks out on stage a couple minutes later to give his concession speech, he starts off with what he rehearsed but then stops, remembers the girl, rethinks his approach, and starts to speak from the heart (remind you of anyone?).
He admits that the line he just delivered about it not mattering whether or not you get knocked down, but what you do when you get back up was just some bullshit that they focus grouped. He then reminds people that one of the things that made him so popular to begin with was that people truly saw him as authentic (why did we all fall in love with Trump? Authenticity). He peels back the curtain a bit more and tells people that they gave $7300 to a consultant just to tell them the perfect amount of scuff he should have on his shoes, the color of the tie he should wear, etc. The crowd loved it. The media loved it. And he was instantly named the front runner to win if he ran again in 4 years.
Enter the Adjustment Bureau. They call themselves "the people who make sure the important things in the world go according to PLAN." They explain that they've been involved throughout time and have back off from time to time only to see humanity throw itself into the dark ages, two world wars, and finally, nuclear war. They know that one morning, as David Norris is about to start his new job in the private sector, that he's going to run into Elise again on the bus on his way to work.
This domino would be tragic for their plans, as apparently, while Elise inspired David in the first place to give that speech that put him back on the path to what would eventually be the White House, that in large doses, she knocks him off track completely, so they need to stop this encounter from happening. The agent (or angel--it's not entirely clear what these guys are in the movie) assigned to his case is supposed to get David to spill his coffee on his shirt while he's walking through the park on his way to the bus stop, so he'll go back to his office to change, miss the bus, and then arrive at his office ten minutes late, giving the Adjustment Bureau time to manipulate the mind of his business partner to agree to going into the solar business--something they know will play well for him politically and help him win the election in four years.
But his agent falls asleep in the park, David makes his bus, runs into Elise again, and the whole plan is thrown into disarray. David gets her phone number this time, arrives at work on schedule, and finds everyone in his office seemingly frozen in time, and sees a couple of stormtrooper looking guys waving wands around his business partner's head, getting him to change his thinking on the solar investment. They see him, chase him, and eventually catch him and take him to a warehouse where they finally have to just level with him, tell them who they are, tell him he can never tell anyone of their existence or they'll lobotomize him, and then tell him he can never see Elise again as they burn the paper she wrote her number on amidst his futile protestations. David goes to a bar to drown out his pain at having lost the girl's number and is scribbling on a napkin to see if he can remember the last four digits.
Ok this is where it gets super weird for me. At EXACTLY 1 hour and 17 minutes into the movie, David is back at the bar where he's trying to remember Elise's phone number, but this time there was some graffiti scribbled in chalk on the outside of the bar (supposedly to indicate the passage of time) but read what it says: "24 hours in a day. 24 beers to a case. Coincidence? I think not."
I shit you not that scene is at exactly 1:17:00 into the movie. What the fuck.
So at this point I'm really geeking out and paying close attention.
So 3 years go by, he's on his way to make a speech announcing his Senate run, when he sees Elise again walking on the sidewalk next to the bus. He jumps off the bus, runs after her, and invites her to breakfast at a nearby coffee place. They vibe like crazy, but then his business partner and campaign manager magically shows up and tries to get him to leave to go give his speech. He's determined not to lose her again though so he says "Where can I see you later?" She tells him that she's rehearsing just across the water (watch the water) from where he's giving his speech at PIER 17 (what the fuck?) He says he'll meet her there as soon as he's done. As he's giving his speech he keeps turning around and seeing the big number 17 like 5 times. The adjustment bureau gets her dance company to move their rehearsal to another location and David seems doomed to lose her again.
But by sheer will, he finds out where they've moved their location to, and sees her dance, which the Adjustment Bureau knows will make him so obsessed he can never let her go. They leave the scene, dejected, and David and Elise hang out the whole night, vibing like crazy. At that point he confesses to her why he wanted to go into politics in the first place. It was because his Dad and brother had both died tragically (didn't Trump's dad and brother die tragically?) and that his dad had taken him to DC as a kid to get his mind off his brother's death because his dad growing up had been completely obsessed with...wait for it...John F. Kennedy.
Anyway, long story short (but still long, I know), the Bureau this time convinces David to break up with Elise because if he doesn't, she'll end up spending her life teaching dance to 6 year olds rather than becoming a world renown dancer and choreographer. This was a lie, but David buys it, and leaves her alone again with no way to contact her. 11 months go by (there's THAT number again), he's in the home stretch of his Senate run and he's up big, and right after a speech, his campaign manager hands him a newspaper article about Elise. It mentions she's made a QUANTUM LEAP in her career in the main article (many of us believe that the Q team has access to a Quantum AI so this hit nicely too), but another article further down announces that she's getting married the next day to her ex boyfriend.
They cut to Elise looking at the marriage certificate that she hasn't signed yet, but it shows her birth date: 11/11/77 (kind of a neat way to combine 11:11 and 17) and she lives on 1732 w. 10th street.
So David (vs. Goliath?) along with his case agent (having earned his sympathy at this point), concoct a plan whereby he can use the agent's hat to pass through several random doors to arrive at the courthouse and stop the wedding. He finds her in the bathroom, clearly struggling with her decision, knocks out an agent that comes through the door, and knowing he can't explain what's going on her has to show her (some people can't be told, they have to be shown, it had to be this way) they leave through a door that opens into Yankee Stadium, then through another door that leads to...the Statue of Liberty (seems appropriate). He now gives her the choice to never see him or the agents again, or to stick with him for whatever time he (or the both of them) have left. She chooses to stay, but rather than run by turning the door handle they just came through to the right, they turn it to the left, sending them to the agents' HQ where David hopes to speak and reason with the Chairman to change his fate. They get to the top floor, but it's just an empty rooftop, and the stormtrooper guys quickly surround them. Accepting their fate, they say I love you and start kissing like it's the end of the world. When they look up, the stormtrooper guys are gone, the clouds part and the sun shines through (dark to light?). They're informed that the Chairman has considered the options, and rewritten the Plan so they can stay together and still accomplish their dreams.
Anyway, decent flick. And maybe I'm seeing things that aren't there, but as Q likes to say "How many coincidences until mathematically impossible?"
And as Morpheus likes to say "There ARE no coincidences."
So who knows, maybe I'm onto something.
How? By being PERSUASIVE.
And how can we be persuasive?
When the conduct of men is designed to be influenced, persuasion...kind, unassuming persuasion, should ever be adopted. It is an old and a true maxim, that a "drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of gall." So with men.
If you would win a man to your cause, first convince him that you are his sincere friend. Therein is a drop of honey that catches his heart, which, say what he will, is the great high road to his reason, and which, when once gained, you will find but little trouble in convincing his judgment of the justice of your cause, if indeed that cause really be a just one.
On the contrary, assume to dictate to his judgment, or to command his action, or to mark him as one to be shunned and despised, and he will retreat within himself, close all the avenues to his head and his heart; and, though your cause be naked truth itself, transformed to the heaviest lance, harder than steel, and sharper than steel can be made, and tho’ you throw it with more than Herculean force and precision, you shall no more be able to pierce (his mind and heart), than to penetrate the hard shell of a tortoise with a rye straw.
Such is man, and so must he be understood by those who would lead him, even to his own best interest. - Abraham Lincoln, address to the Washington Temperance Society in 1842.
Ben Franklin used to love to argue. Used to love the taste of showing others how much smarter he was than them. Unitil one day a Quaker friend that he had great respect for lashed out at him in unusual fashion, so unusual to his temperament that it caught Ben off guard and he took his words to heart. This is what his friend said:
Ben, you are impossible! Your opinions have a slap in them for everyone who differs with you! Your friends enjoy themselves better when you are not around! You think you know so much that no one can tell you anything. Indeed, no one is going to try, for the effort would only lead to discomfort and hard work! So you are not likely ever to know any more than you do now--which is actually very little!
This struck Ben to the core. And we went home and gave his friend's words some serious consideration. He was right. He didn't have many friends. And he fought with everyone all the time. Perhaps there was something to this. But he was a smart guy, and he came up with something that ended up working wonderfully for him. Here's what he said:
I made it a rule to forbear all direct contradiction to the sentiments of others, and all positive assertion of my own. I even forbid myself...the use of every word or expression in the language that imported a fixed opinion, such as 'certainly', 'undoubtedly', etc., and I adopted, instead of them, 'I conceive', 'I apprehend', or 'I imagine' a thing to be so or so; or 'it so appears to me at present'.
When another asserted something that I thought an error, I denied myself the pleasure of contradicting him abruptly, and of showing immediately some absurdity in his proposition; (but) in answering I began by observing that in certain cases or circumstances his opinion would be right, but in the present case there 'appeared' or 'seemed to me' some difference, etc.
I soon found the advantage of this change in my manner; the conversations I engaged in went on more pleasantly. The modest way in which I proposed my opinions procured them a readier reception and less contradiction; I (was less embarrassed) when I was found to be in the wrong, and I more easily prevailed with others to give up their mistakes and join with me when I happened to be in the right.
Your best chance to change someone else's mind is in private, one on one. In "The Art of Controversy" (a more accurate modern title would probably read "The Art of Public Debate"), Arthur Schopenhauer explains that the goal of public debate is not to change the mind of your opponent, but rather, to win the crowd.
This is most effectively accomplished, he explained, not by putting forth the strongest arguments, but by using logical fallacies, even if they're obvious, and ad hominem attacks to get an emotional response from your opponent, making him appear weak and unstable to onlookers as he scrambles to disentangle the web of misquotations, accusations, labels, and personal attacks you've woven around him. Meanwhile you appear cool, calm, amused, and basically superior in every way.
If you think back to Trump's many debate performances, you'll see that he was a master at this technique. Never at the end of any Trump debate did you think "His points were dazzling! I never thought of it that way! A philosopher and a scholar, take my money!"
No, you thought, "Look how angry and frazzled everyone else looks. Look how much attention he gets. Look how calm and amused he seems in the face of this highly stressful situation in front of millions of people. That...that right there...that's strength. That's masculinity. That's a leader."
Nobody even remembers any of the actual content from those debates. They just remember Trump calling people names, rolling his eyes, laughing, telling jokes, and toying with his opponents like a wise old cat toys with a mouse before eating it.
But that's when there's a crowd. If Trump had been meeting with each of his debate opponents privately one on one, and his goal was truly to win someone he thought was honest of heart over to his way of thinking do you think he would have called him names? You think he would have used literally any of the tactics he used during the debates?
Not a chance. He'd invite him to have a seat. He'd pay him a compliment. Ask him if he wanted anything to drink. Then address the elephant in the room, which is the source of their disagreement, and then ask his GUEST to explain his perspective in detail before offering up his own, and he'd make sure he felt safe doing so.
He would then look at his guest intently as he spoke, listening closely and tell himself internally, "I'm going to reserve judgment for now. I'm going to listen like this is the first time I've ever heard anything like this. I'm going to assume that he's got to be right about at least SOMETHING on SOME level, even if it's just his good intentions.
What is it exactly that my guest here is trying to communicate? Where are they coming from? What might have contributed to him feeling this way? What are his trigger points? Where are the traps? Where do I think he's gone wrong in his thinking? What do I think he has gotten right?"
And he would stop his GUEST every so often to make sure he'd understood him correctly--not as a trap, not as a form of argument itself, but in good faith, offering his guest the benefit of the doubt and time to wiggle out of whatever perspective he realizes he's communicated that doesn't actually matches up with his true feelings.
He'd give his guest time to think about his own perspective and make sure he felt safe taking his time getting it out properly.
Then, after he had proven to his guest that he fully understood his position and his guest was now calm, and waiting in pacified curiosity as to what his reply would be, he would start by commending his friend, for his openness, for his honesty, for his goodness, and his intelligence.
He would then proceed to lay out the ways in which he believes they agree, laying down those facts as the foundation for their discussion and proof of their shared values.
Then finally, after all that, if there were still something about his guest's perspective that he disagreed with, then he would gently, with language that suggests continued open-mindedness, explain why he has trouble with this or that point, and he wouldn't resist or object if his guest, upon hearing some such things, and once again feeling misunderstood, were to interrupt in order to clarify.
Our hero wouldn't take it personally, and would be patient, and perfectly content to repeat that process as many times as it took either until they reached consensus, or determined that their values or premises are simply too far apart for that to be possible. Either way, committing to treating his guest as a friend nonetheless.
Look, arguing can be a fun sport but it can get in the way of our mission. I know nothing can stop what is coming but wouldn't we all like it to come a little faster? We have an enemy that is not honest in heart and not acting in good faith. That is the Church of Satan. But those we refer to as "normies" are not our enemies, and it's irresponsible of us to make a sport out of arguing with them, when a little persuasion could save them and bring them to the side of light.
Ask yourself honestly, "Would I rather be the only person in the room who knows what the hell I'm talking about, feeding my ego and wearing that like a badge of honor...or actually wake them from their slumber?"
Have you thought about how you can do that? Have you already given up because it feels like a mystery to you? Are you content to let the end come when it comes, because nothing can stop what is coming, or would you like to give that ball a little extra shove as it rolls down the hill so we don't have to wait so long?
This happening to anyone else? It apparently has a refresh button but nothing happens when I click it. When I close and reopen the app the number is still the same. #236,175. Has been like that for days. Is this normal?
Just remember, when Jesus revealed himself to the Jews, he was nothing like they expected their Messiah to be either.
God works in mysterious ways. It's best to keep an open mind.
I keep thinking about how firey Giuliani was when the election was stolen. How he kept saying he was going to bring "them" all down the same way he brought down the mob, with a RICO case. He's been on TV a few times since then but I can't think of a better man for the job and I suspect it's been him all along. Would be satisfying as fuck to learn that I'm right on this. I fucking love Giuliani.
2 possibilities here:
-
They've had it all for a long time, but haven't rounded everyone up yet because they've been waiting on the great public awakening so that when they move, the evidence they have on them is already largely known and the pushback from the public will be virtually non-existent.
-
They didn't have it, but thanks to the Quantum AI they used to see the future (Project Looking Glass) they knew they would have it, and when and where they would get it. So Trump stated confidently that something had happened that hadn't actually happened yet, the same way Q has apparently been doing this entire time (future proves past).
Either way, the outcome is the same. Just a fun trippy mind-game to play cause why not.
Coincidence that the same weekend we are watching the events unfold in CA (Canada) that the NFC Championship Game is being played in CA (California) by two California teams in the same stadium where the Super Bowl will be played two weeks from now? Will this be the Super Bowl that will be made to look "like a puppy party?" by the events/storm swirling around it?
Anybody else feel like that today?
THEIR (I'm an English major I now hate myself)
This is what they're trying now guys, anybody else seeing this in directives in their area? With athletes too, like in UFC, if you're "fully vaccinated" they don't want you getting tested for Covid. They're hoping to flip those numbers and say that only the unvaccinated are getting covid. When it's really just only the unvaccinated are getting tested. Pretty smart. Don't let it fly.
I've made several posts about this in the past but nothing came of it. I figure I'll just keep beating the drum from time to time.
Why do I know more about what's happening in Florida and Kazakhstan than what's happening in my home state of Utah?
How do I alert other Utahns of local issues I become aware of and receive alerts in return, so that we can organize rallies, protests, etc. and actually take our country back, school by school, city by city, county by county?
This is SO easy to fix. All you have to do is use the tags feature you already have. You just need more of them. Here's what you need:
- Extranational News (1 category)
- National News (1 category)
- State News (1 for all 50 states)
Now, if you live in North Carolina, you could use the filters feature when you log in. "Show me Extranational News, National News, and news from North Carolina specifically."
This would give us the broad view of what's happening around the country and the globe, but enable us to organize locally when issues start to trickle into our respective states.
I've begged for this. I've written admins. I've been told it's not a priority. Why is it not a priority? All this global and national news does is get us all riled up. But to what end? What good is being riled up about something that's happening in Michigan when I live in New Mexico? What good is it to get riled up if you can't harness that frustration into a tangible, collective action?
WHY ARE WE STILL LETTING ANTIFA BE BETTER ORGANIZED THAN WE ARE?????
