Rational Science, like Rational Humans, don’t mind their dogmas,axioms,hypotheses, principles, facts, conclusions, etc questioned or debated at any point in time. In fact, it’s inherent in a strong society and strong human being as well. That’s how we get closer to TheTruth™️ and was what The Enlightenment Era Zeitgeist was. The Spirit of Curiosity, Debate, Scientific Method,Logic/Reason and the Questioning of EVERYTHING.
We taught our six kids to question everything. So they did. Us included. Their teachers were questioned and many a time we had to sit in front of a school Principal or teacher and explain our children’s radical behaviour. We weren’t popular. Good! Who wants to be popular, the Truth is often not popular.
Brilliant. It beggars belief as to how we, the people, let those in their ivory towers get away with this unlawfulness and manipulation. We are rising and gathering to march on their castles.
It does beggar belief, you're right. Which is probably why many people still cannot bring themselves to believe it. But to deny the manipulation at this point they must have their heads so far in the sand they can taste petroleum.
Words mean everything to a writer and your words mean much to the readers here. Thank you so much for your dedication to writing - being a novice myself and married to someone who would be nothing if he couldn’t write. It is a noble profession and poppycock to those who think otherwise.
As to the occupiers of the castle to which the angry villagers justifiably surround, they need to have blurted out to them that wonderful phrase from some very funny men a few decades ago: “Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.”
Seems the dragon has accumulated a lot of gold under the mountain of deceit.
And as King I now order that the the word coercion be struck from all writings banned from utterance and to be replaced with 'face cushion sleeping'...
Brilliant. Satire is definitely the way to go - it can slip past the defences of those who don 't want to wake up, plus the powers that be hate being the butt of the joke.
Absolutely, Gary. Plus there's the benefit of our own mental health. I shudder to imagine where we would be without great satirists like JP Sears to keep us laughing and sane!
Let us not forget the ruling class have been brought down before, there are some of us with a rain that have caught on and I also see signs that the knowledge is spreading. Pitch forks and torches it may have been, now the too is the internet and word of mouth. Pass the message wide my friends, the peasants are revolting.
Good stuff. I think one of the key aspects of evil that even those who can perceive ir miss out on is its short-sightedness, which inevitably leads to self-destruction.
Exactly, Mark. The evildoers seem to be playing a game of how much evil and absurdity will the people tolerate, not realizing the people have already begun massing at their gates.
Yes, and the alchemists taking the villagers tax money to do 'gain of function' research and accidentally make more dangerous diseases is part of the same fairytale that alchemists can make purest green (or gold from base metals). It can't be done! They are laughing at us. https://georgiedonny.substack.com/p/x-ray-crystallography-and-3d-computer
You're optimistic, but I'm afraid that the "elites'" totally absurd behavior only indicates that they are sure that they have some means of putting down any rebellion, and in fact, the smallest rebellion (or even a fake one, like Jan6) is exactly what they want in order to have the excuse for their "final solution".
To go a bit further, I think that this is the key quote from this post:
"At this point, some of your personal retinue of guards will tuck tail and flee, or join the villagers, thus guaranteeing your inevitable destruction."
Somehow, I just don't see any of this happening now or in the near future. The truth is that the power of the "elites" depends totally on the enforcement class, the police and bureaucrats, now supplemented greatly by machines and AI, and if we could get through to these people, the whole thing would fall apart instantly. However, these types are typical drones who obey any orders they are given, and that goes infinitely more for computers.
Everyone on the side of the people likes to quote the verdict from Nuremberg that "just following orders" is no excuse, but it is clear that the only lesson the power-hungry maniacs internalized from Nuremberg was "don't lose the war".
Love the how to format. Our memes are the modern catapults to mock them in their rotting towers.

Yep. Staunch questioner of everything. You're preaching to the converted. 😄
"it’s inherent in a strong society and strong human being as well. " Yeah, I think this is what I was trying to say with: https://thefreethinker.substack.com/p/be-strong-be-wrong

The D&D player in me really loves this story. Bravo.

Brilliant. Thank you for this.

Here is how the new way of doing science has proven the existence of the flower fairies, how you can test for fairy dust and how to get rid of them, though why would you want to https://georgiedonny.substack.com/p/we-cant-find-them-therefore-they

We need to keep trying and keep praying.
