You can listen to the over-analysis of this essay by ChatGPT and NotebookLM. This essay breaks the 4th wall of the partisan divide which keeps people in information bubbles that would never dare compare notes. As an information security specialist, I have been studying the emergence of intense psychological warfare since 2015, when I noticed that the media’s editorial policies changed overnight. As usual, the shortcut disclosure here is that there are no sides at the level where your reality is being crafted.

Ignorant people used to know they didn’t know stuff, and since being ignorant can come from one’s lack of access to resources it used to be considered unfortunate and not a “defect” per se. Today, people have an encyclopedia in their pocket and even an AI which will answer any question you have. It can even read out text from a photo if it is in a language you don’t understand or, sadly, you can’t read, which is another thing that plagues people who don’t have access to resources.
What plagues us today, however, are ignorant people who want talking points delivered by propagandists who create communities around the concept of “we all know.” If you are unable to validate the compelling but unproven topics shared by propagandists, you can simply repeat “we all know.” Insert official igno-’rant’!
My point is that massive amounts of people can be summoned into carrying water for propagandists via the belief that they are part of a large community of believers. Q exposed this phenomenon well because it split people between “we all know Q believers are crazy!” and people who use “we all know” by repeating Q posts verbatim.
What people don’t know is that the same people who wrote the Q posts published at the end of 2017 are the same people who produced the 4,500 articles in the media meant to confuse the public about what is going on. And that readers of both “sides” will be upset by my statement.

The only thing that is real is the things you are able to ascertain on your own… or better yet, the things you build by yourself. That’s not easy, if you consume what is pushed to you. You are bombarded every day with Quandtification Fraud and Scatistics… these are two terms you’ve never heard of before because they reference the art of psychological warfare, they are ingredients of the news media that aren’t on the label.
The mainstream media decides what gets to exist and what gets overlooked. This priority has nothing to do with importance or newsworthiness. They have not been in the business of newsworthiness for 10 years now following the end of the Schmit-Mundt act. Every day for the last ten years, the media puts forth a new scandal that reaches everyone. Then, the next day, they don’t mention it, because there’s a new scandal occupying the docket. This is The Great Reset, a tactic aimed at taking the partisan test of society to the breaking point.
I simply say this because I have observed the media closely, full-time since 2015. I started watching American media in 1980 and I assumed it was journalistic. I did not yet understand English back then, but I learned rather fast, thanks to my uncle Bob Barker, who hosted the educational show The Price Is Right which was created by the U.S. Army to teach allophone English without them realizing it.
Today, people are so afraid of upsetting their frenemies that they self-censor and retreat. I deleted my Facebook in early 2020 and have created for myself a quiet life where I live on $12,000/y. I try to return to my old lifestyle from 1,500 years ago as a Poor Fellow of Christ who carried bibles between monasteries in Wales. I do not consume the content that is pushed to me by an algorithm and only read what I seek out myself. I understand that my lifestyle is completely inaccessible to most people, but I report that it is quite blissful.
On my conception day, two films came out. One of them is On A Clear Day, You Can See Forever starring Barbra Streisand and Yves Montand. This film is about a chain smoker who seeks the help of a hypnotist to address her addiction. In the process, she remembers an eccentric past life. I am related to the people in this film which was made by Vincente Minnelli, the husband of Judy Garland. Judy Garland has announced the conception of everyone in my family going back to Strike Up The Band in 1940. I remember Yves and Judy from my past life as well as who was In My Band for many lifetimes before that. I’ve realized that reading about history (of science and innovation) and pondering this knowledge, is way more entertaining that any tv show or film could be. I must emphasize that in order to remember the past, you must stop consuming the drama of other people, whether they are celebrities or characters in tv shows. Right now, the distributed anxiety about the looming danger is preventing people from thinking clearly. I used to have Trump Derangement Syndrome from 2015-2017 therefore I remember the intense sense of panic and dread which clouded my ability to access truth. Truth doesn’t align with any side of the partisan divide. We are now seeing people champion critical thinking for the sake of critical thinking… perhaps, people born yesterday can realize that critical thinking isn’t the act of talking negatively about public figures or performing disdain for social credit.
In order to see past, present and future, you must define for yourself, a clear day. Soon enough, the media will stop promoting a sharp division based on partisanship. They will stop promoting edge cases. They will stop pushing humiliation-based stories meant to entertain the inhabitants of Shadenfreudia.
You can create a clear day, whenever you want by removing applications with permascroll and algorithms. You can removing notifications from your phone. You can fire any talking head who harps on time or uses pressure tactics to get you to move. Can you remember the 100 short form stories you were bombarded with yesterday?
I promise, you won’t miss anything important.
