Conspiracy Vs Reality: Where the Balance Lies For Me...
There is so much information being shared on all forms of media right now, especially of course relating to Corona.. Some people are sharing about how we need to all work together and self isolate in order to bring things under control.. other are sharing many other kinds of information, and that includes the plethora of conspiracy stories that are pinging around the Internet. Some of the conspiracy theories are right, some are just wrong, and others have some truth in them. One thing is for sure, they cannot all be right, especially when they contradict each other. So where does the balance lie for me, and how far do i think the rabbit hole goes!?
Now what I am about to say applies not only to Corona but also to many other things such as 9/11, flat earth, sex slavery, legal kidnapping of children for profit, and many more. Each of these examples is different, and I have a different view about each one of them. I believe things have gotten quite polarized on the issue of the main conspiracy theories going around, with just about anyone who speaks about things our governments might do wrong being labelled as something like a 'tin hatter'. This polarisation is so dangerous, because things are not black and white, and this is now a very complex arena. We have fake news adding to the complexities, and disinformation also feeding in to add to our confusion.
SO, where does the balance lie with my view about Corona Virus, and how do i fit some of the conspiracy theories that I know about into our currently reality. Let me start by saying that I do not think that Corona itself is fake news. I watched a video yesterday from 'one of us' that spoke about how viruses cannot be transmitted to one another, and that we are just detoxing. I don’t believe that is true. I watched another video on 3speak from 'one of us' in Spain. He had visited a hospital and saw it looked empty. He really felt that the whole Corona story was fake, but i do not believe that either.
I don’t think our governments, the ones that seem to be in power, are in any way motivated or capable of the kind of effort it takes to organise global fake conspiracies like the Corona Virus Epidemic. The virus MAY have been made by China, or the US military for a bio warfare test, yes that I can believe. They have done these things before, and I don’t find it that hard to believe they could do it again. Governments play hard, and they are like pawns who collude with incredibly powerful people.. and yes there are all kinds of INSANE agendas that each government is playing out.. As it always has been. Remember Nazi Germany, or the Vietnam war,.. or Iraq. The people and our governments are just a part of the bigger picture, and if we want to know who is really calling the shots you can be sure its not at the governmental level. Our politicians are for the most part, real people... yes dishonest, but right now I think that they are more likely trying to figure out how to stop this pandemic rather than trying to kill of the old people, or make us submit to a new world order.
Do I think Statistics are honest.. absolutely not.. its impossible to be straight with numbers because you always choose how they are portrayed and what you look for. When it comes to Stats, as any good Statistician will tell you.. you can almost always find what you are looking for. I’m also quite sure that cases are made to seem worse when our governments want us to stop moving around.. They may want to scare us into submission.. The UK government tried asking nicely first, and when no one listened they had to scare people and force them to do it.
DO i think that is justified, yes I think so, in these extreme circumstances... if it saves lives i can condone it when people are acting foolishly. .., especially because if we don’t pull together then the numbers of deaths could indeed reach very high levels.
Another really interesting conspiracy theory that is going around is about the new world order.. There is SO much to say about that.. Do they want to implement a global digital currency? Last I heard they do.. and could this whole Corona epidemic push that agenda very easily into their hands.. yes I think that is very possible.. That and the many other things like total authoritarianism and control.. a bit like they have in China.. Who incidentally have almost zeroed out Corona in Wuhan, China. Do I think that is a lie or fake news? No. Maybe its exaggerated, but after watching how China use their State Surveillance systems, it wouldn’t surprise me. They track EVERYTHING< and if you come into contact with anyone with Corona your phone will let you know and make you self isolate.. FORCED. Everything and everyone tracked to the N'th degree! Imagine having a drone appear recognise you and send you home, yes that happens!
I'm generally not supportive of a surveillance state, at least not in its current form, but I can see the benefit of technology in such an extreme situation, and many others. I think I accept the inevitability of technology being used to track our every movement, word, action, and deed. I also accept the simple fact the NOTHING is safe or private on the Internet, or anywhere else for that matter. Secrets are a thing of the past.. there are no more secrets.. its just hard to tell the truth from the lies instead!
I don't think we should be afraid of new technology, this is really just the start. Wait until Artificial Intelligence and neural networks come online. You can not even imagine the ways in which that technology good be used for good and bad.
What I do think is that we should worry about the people in charge of our technology, and not the technology itself. We have to adapt and evolve so that we don’t end up in an Orwellian state, and decentralisation is a huge and important part of that change. When our system finally do collapse, it will be much easier than most people think to continue. Our phones and apps will play a big role in a new decentralised world. Who needs banks when you can send Hive, or Bitcoin? Who needs rip-off high street shops peddling slaved labour made goods, when you can have local smaller and ethical online stores.. If the trucks stop running, we can start sourcing and making things locally again, especially our food.
Whilst we are talking about conspiracy theories, what if we look an even greater conspiracy theory. What if Corona Virus is Mother Natures way of helping us to get on track for the new generations. Time is running our for our climate and our way of life. Corona could be a great blessing in disguise that could take our world very quickly where it so urgently needs to be. Maybe the drastic reductions in CO2 emissions and pollution has happened just at the right moment, to allow us to inch back from a tipping point.
That’s the thing about conspiracy theory.. you can usually keep going.. until you reach cosmic and esoteric levels.. and then you realise that everything is a repercussion of the great driving force.. The YUGAS.. those 25,000 cycles.. and we are about to shift into the Golden Age, so they say.. and so this may be the way it is manifesting.
It can be hard to know what is truth and what are lies when we are feeling scared. When we get connected to the fear consciousness, it is almost impossible to be grounded and centred. We can just get carried away and start believing anything.. with all our hearts! The flat earth believers are i think a part of that kind of person. That is to say, someone who is SO upset at the state of the world and the intense darkness that holds things in place. Yes they are right that our world is controlled in many ways, and there are things going on way beyond what we will ever know.. but that doesn't include a conspiracy SO big, that would have to involve people from every country in the world.. and more lies and almost impossible deceit.. for not reason that can be identified.. SO for me flat earthers have an emotional issue that is at the root of their persistence about things that are no doubt make believe. but hey, i always say NOTHING is 100% so even for the flat earthers i say only 99.999% that is cant be true..
Right now the sun is setting as I write this. There is food growing abundantly in the fields, even though some say there isn’t enough phosphorus left in the earth. There are bees and animals all around, even though they say so few are left. There are birds chirping EVERYWHERE, even though many say they are on the decline. Who knows exactly what the truth is sometimes, we always have to be mindful that our theories are always only theories, even when you think you are sure.
One of the first things I learned in science was that there was no absolute proof of anything in this world. There is only evidence that can support a theory or not. At some point, we have enough evidence that we can say we have proof.. But every good scientist will always be open to reconsidering their theories when new more advanced theory comes along. Modern day metaphysics and string theory would be a great example of that! To be a good scientist, means to be objective. And therein lies this great challenge of humanity.
Breathe, slow down, the truth will reveal itself~ it's finallllyy coming...
