Most college people are not as smart as theyd like their uber driver to believe.

Good explanation of paradox I’m the west explains why Eastern Europe isn’t falling for this crap

If you want to get through to people like this who feel uncomfortable not listening to an authority figure you need to give them a substitute authority figure - I tried for a while with some people but it wasn't until I sent them the link to the Peter McCullough Joe Rogan interview that there was a breakthrough. I don't agree with a lot of what he says in that interview (he speaks only from within the "new virus" paradigm) but at least he's helping to get people away from the fucking vaccine obsession.

Good explanation. Also highlights how despicable and evil those currently manipulating the public's trust in the "greater good" of authority are when you put it into historical context.

In the Western world in the post-WWII era, authority fomented and was ranked by a generation that just served in war. The larger authoritative body was similarly run and ranked by their fellow soldiers, so everyone was working towards a common vision of peace, prosperity, and justice.

However, the 20th century rolled forward and this generation grew old and died. Their spoiled children (Boomers) only knew of a peaceful, just world where authority and institutions were created to guide and protect the populace through life. And it worked great.

But generations have passed and the incredibly trusting institutions the Silent Generation and Greatest Generations built--that can only run that way if they are TRUSTED by the people--are abusing this power of trust between authority and citizen.

But since that's been massaged into every American's brain since birth post-WWII that the Government and Authorities are here for our best interests, it's pretty easy to see why one half of the population is following blindly while the other half is angry as hell at this betrayal of the public trust. And now both sides are also angry at each other, the "believers" against those questioning authority and the skeptics who aren't so much angry at the people themselves as they are the institutions, but since the believers are acting as speaking proxies for the authority they are regarded with contempt as such.

It's a real mess.

Very eloquent explanation. Nicely written.

I disagree with this author. I believe it's ego. Those "smart", "educated", "successful" people see themselves as being like Biden and Fauci and others they admire. They have college degrees, just like their leaders. They're successful, just like their leaders. They're smart, just like their leaders. They even have a catchphrase to pretend they run in the same circles as the people they see on TV. "We're all in this together." To admit that their leaders are wrong would mean they might also be wrong. Their ego won't allow that.

Before one can choose to want or not want the suggested information of others; ones free will of choice response to perceived balance (need/want) under natural law. Every suggestion represents the temptation for one to ignore perception.

The few understand this and exploit the ignorance of the many by utilizing suggestion (want over need); which tricks those who consent into a conflict among each other (want vs not want). This conflict is called reason.

Within the conflict of reason; it's irrelevant which side one chooses or how often one switches to the opposite side; because a) want vs not want; both represent the ignorance of need and b) only those who suggest hold the power to define what those who consented are reasoning about.

Example...the few suggest representative government and the many consent to it by choosing to either want or not want one of the suggested sides within; at which point only the consenting few are in control; while the ignorant many are stuck within the hamster-wheel of reasoning about what they want vs not want (fiction); while they ignore need (reality).

A couple of addition to think about...

• maintaining all conflicts of reason is done by suggesting contradictions to both sides so that they keep reasoning indefinitely. This is called talmudic reasoning.

• whatever suggested was consented to becomes idolized meaning (defined by the will of the few; submitted to by the will of the many); which puts all consenting into a chain of command caste system (a pyramid scheme). Those within will kiss up; while kicking down to progress.

• Media [Latin medius, middle.] represents the middleman between perceived inspiration (reality) and response by choice...aka suggested information (fiction).

• education represents domestication of free will to submit to the free will of others by establishing a student (sub) under teacher (dom) chain of command; while in reality to teach/learn represents balance (dom) for the responding choice (free) aka free-dom. To teach self represents to learn for self and vice versa.

• as form (life) within flow (inception towards death) only flow offers ALL to each ONE responding form within.

• professionalism represents a suggested belief system; which when consented to corrupts ones understanding of PROFESS', verb transitive [Latin professus, profiteor; pro and fateor.] - "to acknowledge". What choice needs to acknowledge is balance (not wanted choices); form need to acknowledge flow; while resisting the temptation of other form; ONE needs to acknowledge perceived inspiration from ALL; not suggested information by other ONEs.
