Well, here we all are, in the middle of a pandemic. Whewy! How much fun can you have in one year? lol.
To start, I will say that I do not believe in Conspiracy Theory, ON ANY LEVEL. To do so, I believe, is imparting far too many "smarts" to the powers that be. Are they psychopaths? YES. Are they smart? YES. But, I believe they spend so much time touting their own images, that they have very little time to get together on ANYTHING, much less create a pandemic. They just aren't THAT smart! To think they are, is just another behavior of giving your personal power away. It's not a good place to stay mentally. There's too many psychological reasons for folks to behave this way, which would require an entire thesis to expound upon, so I won't do that here. I will cover one example only.
The example I will use, is Lyme disease. Did the feds allow Lyme diseased ticks to get off Plum Island? Yes, yes they did. Was it a conspiracy? Good Gawd, no. Was it gross incompetence? Why yes, yes it was. Not much to be done about it after the fact, though, is there? When these things happen, there's no easy or good way, to get the genie back in the bottle, is there? So, it doesn't really matter the where's and why-for's, does it? It's here, now we have to deal with it.
Us Americans are so self-righteous and self entitled, that we have looked at the Chinese wearing masks, for decades, and thought it was beneath us. Turns out it wasn't. I do know the impulse that makes folks want to believe in CT, but by engaging in this sort of behavior, all we are actually doing, is distancing ourselves from each other, and polarizing any possibility of working together to confound and stymie the corporations, continually puking all over this big, beautiful, planet. So it's boomeranging, isn't it?
If this pandemic has taught us nothing, it should be that we CAN stop climate change. Because of the pandemic, and the subsequent SAH (Stay at home) orders, the earth has rebounded, big time. The skies are clearer then they have ever been, the fog has lifted from much of the world, and the ozone destruction has plateaued. Looks like WE were the biggest threat to the planet, after all, hey?
Turns out that all of our energy we have used on CT would have been better spent on ensuring that we work together and do not go back to the previous Status Quo. But people who tilt at Windmills (CT), need to STOP doing so, in order for this to happen. You can't come together with others, until you've gotten yourself grounded firmly in reality. Tilting at Windmills in the guise of having an open mind, is more fodder for the masses to use as a distraction, in order to excuse themselves from getting anything actually done. It's also a super lazy way of not having to do anything that would discomfort us, personally. As my therapist is wont to tell me, "those brain tracts run deep".
That's why I don't do CT. There's really no point, when you think about it. It's just one more "escape from reality" impulse, and the only purpose it serves, is to make one feel more powerful then others. At bedrock, it's a control issue, springing from deep, deep, insecurity and lack of self-esteem and/or feelings of helplessness. Not helpful when the impetus should be to make sweeping changes to our political system(s)!
We really need to work on our own backyards (our minds, emotions, education level, spiritual level, etc. etc.), b4 we can dictate to others, how, or what, to think. I mean, that's really the minimum we should be doing, i.e., fixing ourselves, first, if we want to be taken seriously, isn't it? WE NEED to walk the walk, and talk the talk, There's no room for lazy thinking in that scenario, is there?
Well, that's my take on "THE" whole thing, and remember, even when I'm wrong, I'm right. LMAO!
