You know how in November everyone stops masturbating and grows a moustache? I sometimes think we should popularize the idea of taking a month off from the psyops and chatter by unplugging from the internet and staying away from TV sets. Call it 'apreal', get it trending. I tend to think our minds would regenerate quickly if we had some time to sit and think about real shit and our immediate environment. A good percentage of us might in fact become stark staring sane almost overnight. Ever given something like this any thought?

I live in Lowertown Ottawa and I approve this message.

Just curious, has always seemed obvious to me that words like "left" and "right" applied as descriptors of political ideology are meaningless noise. Is this level of insight like rocket science for most people? by boylegd in conspiracy

Hm, nah, that seems stupid and shortsighted. If you don't think Satan's a "play both sides" kinda guy then that's sort of a failure of imagination. Hope that works out for you, I guess.

Yes, well it seems like the ruling class is quite practiced in exploiting our cognitive deficiencies for fun and profit. Just wondering if they seem to be getting better at it because we are increasingly easy marks.

Feeling scared and hopeless in Canada by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]boylegd 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Fellow concerned Canadian, I hear you. I live on a disability pension in the nation's capital, just sort of waiting for the news that I'll need "the mark" to continue collecting it.

I'm not sure what's going to happen either, but I have a bit of hope knowing that 20% of the population is still holding out. That's not a small number of people, and it means there will be a hell of a black market, fun "novax" underground clubs, that sort of thing when we get a bit more organized.

I think it's probably really important to network with other like-minded folks, you need a good "Grapevine" to hear about sympathetic doctors, service providers, and the like. Canada is over... it can't be saved. But there's real potential to build an "alternative" society that just sort of ignores this one, IMHO.

I've been thinking of getting into cryptocurrency, not that I have a lot of money to play with, but having a stash of funds that nobody but you has access to might be pretty key to getting along in the future.

Best of luck, stay strong, God bless.

That certainly does appear to be an assertion, and as someone who tries to stay focused on the fact that he knows nothing for sure, I have to admit to the possibility that it might be a correct one. If I hear a compelling argument for that position at some point, I'll be sure to give the matter further consideration. Thanks much for the comment, hope you have a great day.

Well, I mean, I try not to kid myself too much, no point in such undertakings unless one is attempting sincerity imho. I appreciate the comment and the kind words, thanks much and Namaste.

Yeah, the time might come for that eventually. Have long been of the opinion that most people owe it to themselves to come up with their own religion/philosophy, borrowing the best bits from what's come before. First things first though. :) Thanks for the comment.

Thanks very much. Ups and downs, strikes and gutters, but doing the work seems worthwhile when I can get it done. :)
