Why The Great Awakening is such a great meme / theme.
-
Everyone has the experience of being asleep and waking up. We all want to get to the waking state, after we have slept.
-
While sleeping, we dream. We know that dreams are not real. If we have been asleep, have we believed things that were not real?
-
The Great Awakening. People tend to believe things that they perceive masses of other people also believe. Normies don't like being the only person with a specific belief. So if the awakening is great, large, broad, wide, normies can feel they are going along with a growing trend instead of going solo.
-
Allusion to 19th century Christian religious revival of faith.
-
Calling a change of understanding an "awakening" is not pejorative. It does not denigrate the people who formerly believed in dreams, fantasies, or MSM lies. It encourages rather than reprimands.
-
It spurs curiosity. What is the Awakening about? Why are other people awakening? What did they learn that made them awaken?
OK, carry on. After 600+ Great Awakening memes, are we starting to understand some stuff?
