I never thought I would see this day. I am an old geezer. We didn't have cell phones when I was in school.
I hit the net with Windows 3.1 and a 4K dialup modem. About the only thing on the internet really was AOL and homeade web pages. Everything took forever. When 56K modems came out
I remember thinking "it can't get any better than this, this 56K dialup is smokin..."
Once a few of us figured out we could make blogs we started spreading the word. At that time I was almost all alone in this except for when I would stumble across a blog written by somebody that understood. We wrote like crazy hoping that seekers would stumble across our blogs and maybe find a little puzzle piece that would give them clues to find other pieces. At the time that was about all I was expecting.
Today there are so many people talking about it that it makes everything I did seem worthwhile. Thousands of hours of toiling away wondering if anybody was understanding what I was laying down. It was lonely as hell too.
I never thought I would see this day when this knowledge was traveling at light speed to anybody that could understand it and that an entire, enormous, community of brilliant people would grow up around it.
That cat is out of the bag and it is not going back in. I can't tell you how good that makes me feel, sometimes to tears yall....
Thanx. I appreciate it. I have paid dearly for it. Back then there were not many of us and we were easy to spot and deal with. I got dealt with, harshly, very harshly.
When you watch Plato's Cave think about your family and friends. You can lose them all by trying to force this insight on them. They cannot see it. Many people have ruined valuable support contacts with family and friends trying to shove it down their throat. They cannot see it and they will think you have gone crazy and recommend psych meds. Be careful what you say to those you need and love.
First: Thank you. I knew I wasn't alone, but was starting to wonder if I would ever find company.
They cannot see it
I was JUST realizing this, this weekend. I keep shaking those closest to me -- cajoling, informing, red-pilling, whatever -- and, while I haven't lost anyone, or had meds recommended (yet ;) --I can see I'm just frustrating folks -- perhaps especially myself -- with my insistence.
My great good fortune is that I listened to my Heart when my sons were born and home-educated them -- so their minds are relatively free from conventional brainwashing and VERY strong yet supple. They ground me, and protect me. I react too strongly when I see any cave/chain mentality in them, tho, which sets them on edge -- and I have been waking up throughout their childhood, so I have to correct errors I made along the way...
Sorry to go on -- just, it's good to know you're there. Someone who can understand.
Thanks for posting. I know an 80 year old who was at the start with the John Birch Society. Sadly she couldn't make it her life and bowed out but at least has a chuckle about how its panned out.

Thank you for all you have done. It is sobering to know how long you've been on this heartbreaking work. Many of your comments make more sense now.

Platos Cave. The rabbit hole is the matrix. The object is to understand it well enough not to get stuck in it.

I knew Plato's Cave would get you. You are the freed prisoner. You are not alone.

I would say that since there has not yet been a "smoking gun" something that I can use to prove this to, say my grandma.
what you are spreading is not knowledge but a belief

Show her the Satanic art works the Podestas collect. No decent person would put those in their home.

If only those paintings that web of connections and those Instagram photos were enough
