Doomer Optimism, The Dimming, Trends Research + More…

matrix 2
Towards the end of The Matrix Resurrections, this:

“Go for it. Remake it (this world). Knock yourself out. Paint the sky with rainbows.
“But here’s the thing: the sheeple aren’t going anywhere. They like my world. They don’t want this sentimentality. They don’t want freedom or empowerment. They want to be controlled. They crave the comfort of certainty.”

(an entire long philosophical essay could be written from this one excerpt)

“It has become obvious that the coordinated efforts of the US government to fuse the military (in violation of Posse Comitatus) efforts and training with a political arm of the government designed not only to destroy dissent at the will of the ruling party, but any aspects of the US Constitution not already in the shredder is widely in the open to anyone who pays attention.”

How I bought a business for $0
“Where revenue is less than $20K per month, many of the businesses you’re looking at aren’t businesses at all: they’re jobs. And if you find an owner (like we did) who wants to quit his job, you can make a deal happen. You’ll get what you want (a revenue-generating business), the seller gets what he wants (his time back and money for his efforts), and everybody wins.”

The Speech That SHOOK The World – 3:53
We’re sitting at a precipice of moral and mental dangers in the western world, spurred on by the vocal minority whom feels it’s entitled to its something-for-nothing ways of living.

WHAT I’M PONDERING

A post from Dr. Thaddeus Gala:

There are more than two choices

There are more options than being Democrat or Republican. There are views other than pro or anti abortion. There are more perspectives than pro or anti “vax”. There is more than being pro or anti gun.

Having someone disagree with us doesn’t automatically mean they are the enemy or that they “must” belong to the “other” camp… as there are many camps.

Genuine discussion, practicing tolerance and having mindful openness towards someone with differing views before labeling or getting emotional is critical now more than ever. There’s more than “us” vs “them”.

Pick up the phone… meet in person… do a zoom call. We should put forth efforts to shelve our emotions until we have sought first hand clarification. The only thing we should be canceling….. is cancel culture.
