Slavitt & Fauci joyously wash the feet of the Deep State
Fauci: “you are seeing right now the fruits of that [the merger of academic/corporate/state power - “fascism”]
Slavitt: “people want to know what the deep state does? This is what the deep state does.”
Take up your Sword of the Spirit of Truth
If we do not take “action” now as individuals world wide to oppose this madness, the centralized fascism we are seeing all around us will only grow more oppressive, and at an exponential rate, upon the face of the earth.
One of our biggest problems IMHO is that our beliefs alter our coherent perception of the world around us. Most people believe that evil exists independently of what we do. But, in reality, we all help bring evil into existence by the choices that we make. We give evil substance, make it real, and give it power, when we choose to believe in falsehood with our thoughts, words and actions. For example, we are quick to blame the dictator, the politician, the corporate lobbyist, and/or the foreign enemy operative for imposing falsehoods (eg propaganda, laws, and regulations) onto the rest of us. But, we too often fail to accept individual responsibility for empowering this evil with our acquiescence to it.
Every incoherent (“immoral”) choice we make as individuals moves the world one step closer to hell on earth and every coherent (“moral”) choice we make, we help move the world one step away from hell on earth.
At any given moment in our history as a species, there was more “good” (net coherent response to reality) than “bad” (net incoherent response to reality) in our world. Otherwise, we would no longer exist.
In the past century alone, we have witnessed the regional genocide of millions as the evil consequence of their collective incoherent response to their regional reality.
But now, our potential collective incoherent response to reality threatens to have global consequences for the future of our species.
We all agree that the “Truth matters,” but our ability to perceive it coherently and our free will to act upon it as individuals, matters infinitely more.
“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" –
~Christ
“We all complain of the senseless order of life, which is at variance with our being, and yet we refuse to use the unique and powerful weapon within our hands —the consciousness of Truth and its expression; but on the contrary, under the pretext of struggling with “misinformation”, we destroy the weapon, and sacrifice it to the exigencies of imaginary threats [eg viruses, hate speech, etc.].
It is as though an individual, who has been given a divine blade so marvelously keen that it would sever anything, should use its edge for driving in nails.
If people could only believe that strength is not in force, but in Truth, and not shrink from it either in word or deed, not say what they do not think, not do what they regard as foolish and wrong.
Indeed, to achieve the greatest and most important changes in the existence of humanity, no violent revolutions are needed, it is only needful that we should not succumb to the erroneous, already defunct, public opinion of the past, which the State has induced artificially; it is only needful that each individual should say what s/he really feels or thinks, or at least, not say or act upon what s/he does not believe.”
~paraphrasing Leo Tolstoy
"…which men shall stop the cruelty (caused) by the violent deceitful persons? To which man shall come the understanding stemming from good thinking? Those men shall be the saviors [saoshyanto] of the lands, namely, those who shall follow their knowledge of Thy teaching with actions in harmony with good thinking and with truth [asha], Wise One. These indeed have been fated to be the expellers of fury."
~Zarathustra (The Gathas Y48.11-12).
