“Adults” laugh about how they once believed in absurd things like Santa Claus, but those ideas are minor compared to fantasies they now believe. I don’t even know where to begin. Boogeyman terrorists in caves, belief that it’s patriotic to make extortion payments to govt.

Or that the knocked down the towers at freefall speed because they hated our freedoms.

The US is clearly the biggest terrorist nation on Earth, but how many Americans see it that way?

Something something the bigger and more fantastic the lie, the easier it will be believed.

It is surprising that the big lie is more believable.

  • Who could possibly exaggerates and mislead to that extent?
  • They couldn't all be in on it.
  • Someone would squeal.

Just wait until you realize "Santa Claus" is actually real.

Or that election promises are meaningful, heartfelt intentions made by well-meaning individuals that are not already pre-picked and pre-packaged for our consumption.

Or that any of the major corporate-driven agendas (GMO, 5G, mandatory vaccines, biometrics, surveillance, private prisons, bobble-head media) are there for the betterment of humankind.

Seriously, Santa Claus sounds more plausible in the modern context.

So what to do? Obviously they hate freedom, and sel-sustainability without state control. So, it seems the plan for us is decentralization, peaceful protest and strike against corrupt agencies, government and cronyists hell bent on controlling your personalism and family.

Work for the betterment of the local community, organic farm practices, etc.
