To control a people you must condition them to be dependent. You must condition them not to trust their own eyes and ears, or their own abilities to reason. You must condition them to leave all of these functions to you. Don’t trust your own gut, trust our “experts.” Even the scientific method must be distorted to serve the agenda. Science is supposed to be about questioning, not “trusting the science.” Science is not religion. It has nothing to do with yielding to experts. If an amateur follows the scientific method and finds the truth, the results should be the same as if an expert discovered it, assuming the work was done objectively and is replicatable. Liberals have taken scientists and made them a new priestly class that cannot be questioned, which is the opposite of what science is. Yes, you should do your own research. Does it mean you are AS LIKELY to reach the proper conclusion on a technical and scientific manner without being an expert? Of course not. But it isn’t impossible. And we are now finding that even the Lancet and other peer reviewed journals have let fraudulent papers and work get through. Turns out, scientists are human beings, and they like to have grant money issued to them, career success, and pay their mortgages. The tobacco companies were able to find scientists to backup their claims that smoking was not the cause of lung cancer for many years.
One thing you should not do is surrender your brainpower to those who want to control you. A good example of this is the JFK assassination. It is obvious from the film footage that the kill shot came from the front. No amount of gaslighting and bullshit arguments are going to change that. I can’t believe people bought that shit for so many years. It is an insult to my intelligence. Evil thrives when we aren’t willing to have enough confidence in ourselves to trust our own judgments. And when we lack the love needed to motivate ourselves to defend those who require it because we selfishly care about ourselves more, then everyone suffers. In a society where every man is for himself, the entire society is already divided and conquered.
I was wrong about the COVID vaccine. I admit that. I fell into this trap, and I am ashamed of it. Never again. It is humbling to be wrong about something so huge. But I am human. What is worse is to deny the mistake and pretend it wasn’t made, or to double down on being wrong. That is far more destructive. Life is not that much different from learning to play an instrument. You need to adjust your technique and get it right or it won’t sound right. Doubling down on being wrong doesn’t fix it. Music is unforgiving in this sense. This isn’t to say there isn’t room for improvisation. There’s room for jazz. But you can’t play jazz unless you have the basics down first. And that requires the same process of humility and course correction.
