For the longest time, I’ve held those who don’t see what we see as retards in my mind.

Like, how can you see what’s happening with everything and not see the (((cabal))) in all of it? You must be an idiot!

But that attitude didn’t square with me logically.. I know many very intelligent people who don’t see it..and I know many less intelligent who do.. and vice versa.

Basically I’ve found no correlation between “stupid people” and believing the bullshit that’s perpetuated against all of us in clownworld. In fact I’ve found the opposite.

Then one day, it dawned on me. It’s got nothing to do with intelligence and everything to do with emotion.

Fear. That’s it. That’s what it comes down to. How susceptible is a person to fear? The more susceptible to fear, the more the brainwashing works.

It’s the reason why you can have a fact-based discussion with another intelligent person, yet they can’t bring themselves to acknowledge the obvious truth. Emotions bypass the normal channels of logical thought.

It’s why someone might murder their spouse’s affair partner, even though they logically know that they’ll get caught and go to prison or worse. The emotion bypasses the logic.

It’s why marketers want to evoke emotion in advertising. If there’s also logical reasons to buy, then great. But even if there’s no logical reason to buy, hey we can bypass that shit anyhow.

I mention this to say “be kind.”

I’m preaching to myself here, too. It’s very easy to just put someone in the “retard category.” I have to remind myself that it’s fear, not stupidity.

These people piss me off, too. But a lot of it is your perspective. In the Matrix, Neo doesn’t look at everyone who’s still inside with feelings of hate and disgust. He wants to FREE THEM.

That should be our attitudes.

And how do you drive out fear? With love. And by example. Not smug, arrogant example..but fearless, encouraging example. Set an example in love. Because it’s the only thing that can truly bypass the fear which controls them.

Fear plays a part, but it's something much more important than that. It's trust and belief.

The primary difference is people who trust the government, trust the doctors, trust the media, trust in the fact that people are good or honest or think the way they do. It's a nice sentiment, and I wish it could ever be true, but it's naive. This is the key difference between the left and the right. The people in power also know this, and use this to move the perception of the trusters farther and farther away from the skeptics, until there can be no discussion between them.

The left needs the right to protect them, because the idea that people can be honest and ethical is important, but without the reality based logical understanding of the possible awfulness of man, it gets abused and taken advantage of.

I would definitely agree that naivety plays a huge part. But I also think that is a direct result of the dumbing down of folks through the education system. There was a time in this country when people weren’t so naive.

I dont necessarily think so. These trusting people (artists, women, young people) have ALWAYS been trusting. And we have always protected and guided them. Thats what the patriarchy was. Our civilization worked because we allowed for that innocent and naive hope to flourish and feed our positive outlook, while reigning in its myopic idiocy with realism and integrity. The left will ALWAYS wail and gnash their teeth about the unfairness of the world because their world view can't be a reality. The right will always point that out to no avail because the left can't understand it. When strong honest men rule the system works. When they dint it doesn't.
