“[T]he elderly are especially susceptible because obedience and trust in authority is ingrained. I keep running into people on both sides of the international border who don’t believe their government would ever knowingly hurt them. Between the steady indoctrination and the demoralization, it’s easy to understand how that’s become the mental state of many in the world. Add to that the media’s support of the narratives and we end up being a society of polarized tribes, with some people flat out rejecting facts in favor of lies and opinions.”

Ah, but both my aunt and S.O.’s mother did believe that many in government were sociopaths and take delight in hurting people. My aunt believed Obama and Clinton to be under evil influence for years.
The problem was that they didn’t believe enough people believed like they did. My aunt thought that if Trump’s mouth didn’t get him in trouble and turn too many people off voting for him the same election shenanigans that took place in 2020 would happen in 2024. What upset her was that so many people didn’t see what was happening. She thought Q was a larp, or at best, well intentioned but not able to control the chessboard. I believe S.O.’s mother was pretty much on the same page as her, although I think she followed Q posts and shows like X22 on her own for a period of time whereas my aunt only knew what I told her about.
It is going to be interesting to see the reaction of people who do not believe so many in government, media, medicine, and other institutions can be so corrupt and so willing to hurt people as they realize how wrong they have been and as they see what the did not see before.
Young People Most Optimistic About Donald Trump’s Presidency

Perhaps the majority of the youngest adults already grasp how many evil people run the world.
I stopped watching Clif High over a year ago because he just got too weird and anti-semitic, but he did mention how he thought he might have to tone some of his language down because so many high school and younger kids were listening to him and expressing eagerness to hear about the retribution some people would enact against the employers who forced the Covid vax on them and the doctors who gave their grandparents Remdesivir.
Neither I nor my aunt knew anyone in this age group to ask what kind of talk takes place amongst their cohorts on this subject.
I have some provocative shirts I wear and a cap that says “Make Vaccine Makers Liable Again” that I wear a lot. A person has to be rather close to me, within less than six feet certainly, to make out the words, but a fair number of people in line with me at a store, clerks at stores, waitresses, etc. do get close enough to read it.
It really doesn’t get the reaction I was hoping for, but of the people who “get it,” they seem to skew young. A lot of people look at it quizzically; they seem to not be able to figure out what it means and never ask me about it. I persist in wearing it in the hopes that as the news changes people will remember seeing it and realize some people like me were far ahead of them on this issue, Hopefully, they will then want to catch up and understand it and will find their way to Children’s Health Defense and the like.
The lack of positive reaction to the cap depressed my aunt.
I think there is going to be a big problem with depression amongst people who were living their lives not realizing the truth of our world and who are going to have a big Truth Sandwich forced down their throats soon.
It is what it is. There is no other way to get to a better place without going through this really tough period.
I am grateful to have this thread to go to during this period of time, but it would sure be nice to meet people like you guys who live near me and talk about this with. But maybe they will come out of the woodwork as Trump shows that he commands the chessboard. Maybe I’ll start getting different reactions to my shirts and hat as people feel braver.
Your aunt sounded like a pip! Your posts do her honor.
