Nothing can happen without β€œour willingness to surrender.” That’s what worries me. I would conservatively estimate that 5-10% of Americans have any idea what you’re talking about to begin with. Media is well captured. And when the food, healthcare and civil society stops functioning, I’m pretty sure they’ll all line up willingly. Still struggling with how we inform people- without hearts and minds, we’re too weak to fight anything.

This is always a fun point of debate. Who's where on the journey and how many? There are a lot of sheep out there still but the number of shepherds is growing fast as they openly reveal "conspiracy theories" weekly now. Media has been captured for a while, but figures show almost nobody is tuning in anymore outside of airport lounges. Their ramping up of censorship is proof they're getting more desperate. The optimist in me says it's less than 50 but much more than 10% who are catching on.

Ah yes. It’s the optimism that stands between us! I’m working on it. :)

And while I would agree with the notion that way more people are waking up, the rest of it involving Schwab and the perils of digital banking are still unknown to most. Once discovered, the details are hard to mentally accept esp because one has to accept that nothing is what they thought it wasβ€”not this war, not the US govt, that it’s not actually about dem vs. rep. It’s an epic shift at a core level. Just seems like a lot to expect from the ordinary citizen. But we lose nothing being optimistic.

Agreed. I hope I’m wrong, but I feel our Good Citizen host might be a bit too optimistic on the sheep/shepherd ratio. I think it’s safe to say that most of us here, including our host, are fairly grounded in reality, and not the type to sniff daily β€œhopeium” for a rainbow riding unicorn high. However, I do believe that our perceptions are prone to distortion, depending on the company we keep. If we generally associate with shepherds, then there are more shepherds in our perceived world. I also believe, that there is a third archetype that exists between the two. These are not leaders, or even independent thinkers. They are also not blind followers of the cult. They are the silent mass of humanity in the middle. They take no stand one way or another. They deal with the current issues in the same way they have always dealt with things, they do nothing. Their decision is to decide nothing. Here is a great post that elaborates on this vast quiet and immovable centre of society. https://www.instagram.com/p/CbO-Pjjuwh_/?utm_medium=share_sheet

It also seems once the eyes start to open, you now have to learn to balance that information to keep your sanity. I could see this driving some crazy, hell when you try to talk to someone about any of this they think your are crazy. Loved the comment

All about planting seeds my friend.

If we add a bit of salt here and a bit of salt there, people start to get thirsty.

The Good Citizen? Just the right amount of salt for those I’ve shared this Stack.

People look for satiation when they start to get thirsty- and hungry for that matter.

Funny how quickly people start to wake up when the pain principle is applied.

The pain is coming in no short demand...

and soon.

All true. They already line up willingly. There is no surrender. With surrender there is an explicit understanding of power and circumstance. We have neither. We have a completely captive culture held in a consumer trance in which everything is financialized, power is obscured an esoteric, and the system is cloaked in the momentum of American mythology.

People don't surrender to the dark power; they transact with it. They are either enslaved by the opiates of conspicuous consumption of status striving or they are enslaved by their desperate need to preserve what little they have been able to accumulate.

The get your jab or lose your paycheck still wasn't enough to convince people that the mid-term "elections" will not transport them back to 1982 America. Or even 2018.

Our people are the liquidating collateral of global progress. The looting of the empire is in late stage and what's left is a great leveling, the reversion to the global mean. The fight is to survive, preserve your culture and heritage, and insulate from the system as much as possible. They want you dead. So live. They want you tapped in material prisons of your own making. So live with less. Time will present opportunities to advance our cause but only for those already dug-into the reality of our circumstance.

Enjoy your respite, Good Citizen. I hope you find refreshment for body, mind, and soul. Sometimes I puzzle over the fact that I SHOULD feel hopeless and powerless the more I learn about what is in play, but I just don't. I have thought long and hard about the lines that cannot and will not be crossed. I'm ready to fight to keep my humanity, and that of those I love. Thank you for continuing to contribute to my knowledge and helping me to clarify things.

But the problem is that too many are still brainwashed. To have any hope of waking them up, the mainstream media must stop lying and showing the deaths from the jabs and how easily slavery and death can be implemented with one click once they roll out the Digital ID.

Just read and watched this all _ with the Minders_on my iPhone. Kudos to you and Steve Cutts; that is the best, most well-oiled depressing clip I have seen in what seems like forever, or at least today, with appropriately melancholic music. (I kept waiting for Moby to squeeze a can o’ spinach…)

Hope you find a can while you can. Don’t go joining no foreign legions!
