I am now openly developing a book on SaidIt and Projex.Wiki.

Obviously your interactive help is very welcome, but be aware that the ever-hostile asstrolls, who have taken over SaidIt chat and scare away new users, often suggest I'm begging for free help. Simply do not help me if you're paranoid of exploitation. Sharing and assisting each other is what community is about, not attacking each other endlessly. Yes, I realize the hypocrisy of attacking them here - so call it pre-emptive self-defense if you prefer. Fuck the unproductive nay-sayers who do little else. I won't waste more time on them.

Suitable Title?

First, let's find a suitable title, after I explain what I have in mind for the contents.

Being a 9/11 Truther once meant something, but at some point, most skeptics shied away from the label for reasons I still don't understand. I was determined to buck that trend and develop content under "Trutherism 101" and I've even squatted on that domain for a few years now. I'd narrowed that project's concept down to just two fantasy characters, Pintle and Gudgeon, having intelligent discussions about taboo perspectives on suppressed information.

Initially I thought I could call the entire book "Trutherism 101", but now I'm not liking it as it carries extra baggage, and while the forthcoming book may have elements of free-thinking and truth-seeking, it seems premature. The book will be an introductory pre-conspiracy primer for folks of all ages, to inspire skepticism and curiosity, before they even delve into rabbit holes. First people will need to learn / know about / understand many of the hidden existential problems and /s/Terminology before diving into them or seeking solutions. In this book I aim to cover the basics. (We'll just see how this first book goes before we can even start talking about deeper follow ups.)

"Denied Awareness 101" or "Suppressed Awareness 101" are not much better, though at least more accurately descriptive. SAD 101 = Suppressed Awareness Denied 101? Or maybe something else like "Dire Warnings" or "Existential Threats To Humanity"?

Any suggestions?

Origin Story

A couple weeks ago I designed a flyer / sticker (Gamble With Your Child's Health) that was enthusiastically received. As a meme it has taken off and several folks' protest signs copied it.

Illustrating is a piece of cake for me, as is coming up with lots of ideas, but having a strong terrific cohesive vision had been elusive until it finally all came together.

I knew my sketch was very good, but the extent of the enthusiasm surprised me, and I realized this was an opportunity not to be missed, and that I should not only do more of these but I'll need to properly share and market them.

The recent success of the poorly written, terribly illustrated, badly laid-out, best-selling Amazon children's book "How The Prime Minister Stole Freedom", proves there is a hungry market. Further, the author was far too gentle, forgiving, limited in scope, and lacking explanation of ruling class' actions.

I have already drafted pitches for three of my very different concepts, each to be in uniquely different illustration styles...

1) Trutherism 101, aka Pintle & Gudgeon, is incomplete, over-complicated, and not online. That big animation project can still be fleshed out further in full if necessary later, but for now it makes more sense to begin it as a shorter simpler panel series, partly influenced by Moebius illustrations. This should be a deeply contemplative critical analysis discussion.

2) Super Villains Of Tyranny, originally titled The Several Deadly Sins Of Tyranny (over 8 months ago), is a premise to anthropomorphize a series of conceptual terms into sexy wicked super-villain comic-book and tattoo-styled graphics to compile into an educational calendar. This premise originated with an image I'd drawn - at a protest against children getting vaccinated last fall, a photo of me with my sexy "Propaganda" sign (a flawed drunk and stoned drawing without eraser).

3) Lemmings (over a year ago) was always meant to be a limited number of single panel cartoon images, like The Far Side, but with cuter character designs within a short narrative series continuing from one panel to the next - until the final tragic ultimate conclusion. This biting comedic series is about masses and crowd psychology.

Plus, new...

4) Sheepleocracy (working title, may need improvement) conceived over a week ago in conversation with LarrySwinger2, "it occurred to me to do anthropomorphized sheeple - [normal] people [bodies] with sheep heads doing stupid human activities mandated by tyrants." (ie. living in fear, wearing masks, getting vaccinated, etc.) This biting comedic series is about unconscious NPC individuals within the manipulated masses.

5) The Several Deadly Sins Of The Ruling Class was conceived last week when lame Canadian-Zionist politician Roman Baber recently refused to address the globalist depopulation agenda, worldwide food crises, vaccination injuries, and unstoppable inflation, among other existential threats to humanity. Obviously this list is very similar to the Super Villains, but these concepts won't likely be glamorized nor anthropomorphized into humanoid characters.

We can collectively work on this project's grand roadmap, these series concepts and the topical panel lists, styles, influences, content, humour / hooks / punch lines, explanatory paragraphs / pages, etc. We can add and develop other series too - if you can generate enough enthusiasm and convince me to make it happen. Of course you're free to develop your own parallel content, illustrations, and concepts too, on or off Projex.Wiki, and though I doubt I will include them in my book, we might help you share and publish your content.

Each of theses series must have 12 panels (perhaps 1-3 more) for calendars, thus making a practical achievable limit. At minimum, 5 series with 12 illustrations plus the explanatory paragraph / page for each will add up to at least 120 pages of content - enough to compile into a decent book.

Marketing

Unlike excellent politically critical David Dees art, my illustrations will be more graphic (some might even be like Shepard Fairey art), designed not only to be powerful as freely shared memes, but with the intention of selling on merchandise, like T-shirts, caps, bags, patches, badges / pins / buttons, postcards, posters, flags, coffee mugs, Faraday phone bags, etc. and of course calendars and books (in case anyone still buys them). Unique or common product ideas welcome.

The explanatory paragraph / page with a decently designed layout can be printed on the back of T-shirts, other side of mugs, etc. where applicable. Hopefully this common-item merchandise will also expose normies to these suppressed concepts.

I can animate some or all of the freely shared images while embedding some credit-branding to attract folks to donate support and/or buy merch.

Early in the process we may try to collaborate with existing publishers and/or resistance merchandise outlets, like Druthers or Forbidden Clothes among countless others, or find someone local to team with. Feel free to recommend your favourites to contact.

FOTPACH

Like with all my projects, I aim to walk the walk and employ ethical FOTPACH management for this book project (Fair, Open, Transparent, Peaceful, Consistent, Honest). This includes open transparent accounting, so if people offer valuable assistance, and assuming this project brings any kind of financial success, it only seems fair to reward folks. I hope to discuss this further as this project gains momentum.

Next?

1) In addition to this initial project outline, and a project roadmap, I'll set up development workflow stages in the evolving book project on Projex.Wiki.

2) For the unaware masses, as well as to appeal to those already aware, we can collectively work on the educational list of concepts, develop the content, style, humour, and the accompanying explanatory paragraphs / pages. I already have some lists to start the process.

3) In parallel with those, I will open-develop various illustration styles for feedback.

4) Plan further.

Other projects

I don't know why I hadn't come up with this book aggregation project before, other than the original three were completely separate ideas in my mind. In all humility, this project is a practical solution birthed out of a desperation to quickly generate income for greater independence, freedom, and to be more self-reliant - all with as little dependency on others, with few requirements, and as minimal overhead possible.

My creative in-progress Bittersweet Seeds screenplay / storyboard / graphic novel cautionary story, and my LeverMind video series, are huge projects that may be shelved as necessary, yet importantly this book project should soon produce results, earn an income, prove my ability, gain a following, and directly support and facilitate these more ambitious projects and more.

I'll not slow my crusade to get decentralized communications and resources up for our free-thinking, truth-seeking, tyranny-resistance, self-regulating communities, one way or another. It's all my fault I haven't finished getting Projex.Wiki clearly outlined and more presentable for a grand announcement and/or launch. Nonetheless, we're determined to set up Movim instances across Canada (soon: MapleFringe.com), a couple Lemmy instances (TruthSeeker.Club for serious elevated discourse + TruthSeeker.Party for fun and free speech), and other decentralized alternatives like YaCy search, NextCloud, PeerTube, IPFS archives, TOR portals, FLOSS VPS, etc, etc, etc - as well as teaching / helping others to set up and federate. If you'd like to volunteer help or help and earn some modest money, or if these just seem interesting to you, please comment below and/or check out outdated /s/Cassy.

Feedback

I'll do my best regardless, but without your constructive critical feedback, good, bad, or ugly, I cannot adjust and improve as may be necessary. More eyes and brains are better than just mine. I hope to hear from you, now and/or later.

Thanks for reading this far.

Feel free to sign up and start your own projects, or collaborate, on Projex.Wiki.

The post 9-11, robust truthism movement that contributed their spare time to share and examine information on internet forums has been infiltrated, corrupted and censored out of existance by paid government agents and big tech.

Everyone who tries to participate in such internet communities today soon finds out all they are contributing their time to a brick wall of censorship that ensures there is only a bare minimum of community interaction. I don't know how they are doing it exactly but it is definately is based on some kind of complex shadowbanning algorithm that replaces community interaction with with bots and government agents. Are they using man in the middle severs to redirect posts and replies to an alternate, fake community?

Also I think it is very noticable how so many of those today that claim to be truthers rarely if ever interact with the users and followers that post comments in response to their posts. It is as if the purpose is to preach a narrative, but not to discuss it. That is not the behaviour of truthers. That is the behaviour of propagandists and is very prevalent in the anti-vaccine community that are currently working to blame all the previously known effects of infection by sars-cov-2 on the vaccines.

I think if there are any real truthers left out there today, they are fighting against an army of thousands of paid propagandists and bots that masquerade as a truth community and that uses a library of previously prepared false narratives to discredit and ridicule anyone who does figure out the real truth about anything.

I see all of this when I try to discuss the 2019 vaping illness lie. I mean, plain common sense should be saying there is just no way two brand new diseases with identical symptoms happened at the same time in the U.S. in 2019. It is just preposterous to claim they did. One new disease is something very out of the ordinary. Two new ones at the same time in the same place is unheard of. It never happens. Two at the same time with identical symptoms? Preposterous.

Everyone should be seeing, obviously one of them was a lie and that the lie was vaping illness. The reason it had identical symptoms to covid is because it WAS covid and this is all because the covid outbreak had already started spreading here in the US in the summer of 2019 if not before. How long it had actually been spreading before the CDC decided to cover it up by blaming vaping is anyone's guess but it had to be at least as early as June 2019 when it started, probably during the known breaches of containment at Fauci's NIAID bio-research facilities at Ft Detrick.

So why is there no truth movement to discuss this? The biggest crime against humanity since 9-11 and yet there is nothing in response. No one is seeing it has been about blameshifting since the beginning. First they blamed it on vaping. Then they blamed it on China. Now they are trying to blame it on the vaccines. Why the vaccines? Because they are liability exempt.

All of that is insightful food for thought.

Adding to what you've said, many truthers are more like preachers, intolerant of other ideas outside their own. And they often don't have the patience or inclination to deal with individuals.

Myself, I don't have interest in debating the minutia of this or that conspiracy either. More importantly in my mind is to present new concepts, terminology, and implant questions in normies to delve deeper for themselves. That why I said, "The book will be an introductory pre-conspiracy primer for folks of all ages, to inspire skepticism and curiosity, before they even delve into rabbit holes." Unfortunately most folks wouldn't recognize propaganda, or tyranny if it sat on their face like a mask.

Not sure I buy the idea of blame-shifting. The dangers of COVID were over-hyped and vaccines under-hyped - intentionally, by the full spectrum dominant corporatocracy.

Not sure I buy the idea of blame-shifting. The dangers of COVID were over-hyped and vaccines under-hyped -

... You'll see. They massively UNDER hyped the virus by focusing everyones attention on the respiratory symptoms. They even gave those respiratory symptoms their own name (covid).

What they played down was the fact those respiratory symptoms were just the tip of the iceberg. They were the visible symptoms of an out of control inflammatory response to what the virus was really doing and what it was really doing was a massive infection of every major system in the human body including the immune system itself, the cardio vascular system, the central nervous system including the brain, the gastro intestinal system, the kidneys and the liver. The virus survivrs that inflammatiry response by going latent until it is reactivated repeatedly by other infections. This is why people are getting it 2, 3, 4 times and they will keep getting it because they are relapses like herpes outbreaks. Except sars-cov-2 relapses are causing cummulative damage. You wait and see if by 2025 people are not dropping like flies with major organ failure and when they do, they will be blaming it all on the vaccines.

Okay, if that's true, then people are fucked regardless. We've already seen countless ways the vaccines are harming people, also cumulatively, so compound fucked plus vaxxed and you've got double fucked twice as fast.

Same story: humanity is fucked, by the ruling class, intentionally, in every way possible. They have engineered the food crises, economic collapse and inflation via retarded tyrannical lockdowns, and whatever this health crisis is. Add to that social chaos via critical race, critical gender, critical censorship, critical war, etc etc etc. The manufactured Great Reset is Ordo Ab Chao. Our best hope is to build our own fair resilient alternative orders from their chaos.

Call it Bittersweet Seeds or Troof Bong

[–]JasonCarswell[S] 1 insightful - 3 fun1 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

Bittersweet Seeds is already a thing.

With the appropriate content Troof Bong could be a good sub-section, though it might be better left out of a book for all ages, including kids.

[–]JasonCarswell[S] 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

What do you think of "Critical Pre-Conspiracy Theory Primer" or "Critical Pre-Conspiracy Theory 101: Dire Warnings Of Existential Threats To Humanity" for this book of irrefutable terms and concepts that all come before diving in any endlessly debatable rabbit holes? (Or these terms and concepts can be picked up along the way.)

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (2 children)

If kids are part of the target audience, this is probably too wordy and too biased towards conspiracy theorists. It should be more neutral and simple. "Critical thinking in the disinformation age".

[–]JasonCarswell[S] 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

That's perfect! It avoids "conspiracy" and is much more open-ended to be whatever the content evolves into.

Or maybe?: " Critical Thinking To Navigate The Age Of Big Lies "

Folks here are keen. I'm getting way more excited too.

[–]JasonCarswell[S] 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Tossing and turning unable to sleep, I'm playing it over and wonder if there's still room for improvement. I was close to listing all this before, but not only wanted to not burden you with a wall of text, but also didn't want to diminish the huge leap forward of this new direction you provide. Yet, here I am now.

First I thought shorter:
Critical Thinking In The Disinfo Age

Then I thought simpler, and that they're always lying:
Critical Thinking In The Age Of Big Lies

Then I thought it needs more urgency, caution, and danger:
Critical Thinking To Survive The Age Of Big Lies

Then I thought that this isn't a survival guide and there's no guarantees anyone will survive:
Critical Thinking To Survive The Age Of Big Lies

So that's when I landed on:
Critical Thinking To Navigate The Age Of Big Lies

I don't think it's scary enough. I also have a lot of words I could add, but want to keep it short. This is much trickier that you'd think, akin to trying to write a good screenplay rather than a novel.

I was punning off the insane "critical race/gender/clownworld theories" and I hadn't even considered "critical thinking", but really that's really what I'm going for, to front-load folks before they get to conspiracies. Nailing it down like that is really good to help steer the content development when trying to explain what it is and is not. It also provides the thematic context and overarching perspective (aka a voice) from which some of the terminology will be presented.

What do you think of:
Critical Thinking To Help Us Survive This Age Of Big Dangerous Lies

I'm also wondering if I should do two versions. One that does not attack anything specifically (ie. vaccines, lockdowns, authorities, 9/11, conspiracies, etc.), and another one that is as merciless and hard hitting as I can rationally, logically, ethically get, perhaps under another title. Ideally the images would be mostly the same, but the accompanying explanatory paragraph may be different.

Also, I just realized. Duh.
We'll need a sixth section:
Alternatives & Solutions.
