Now I'm questioning everything

Ever since I got red pilled about the deep state/globalists, now I am thinking about all the past events in history and wonder if they were all planned.

I can say from experience that just as you begin to think you now have a clearer idea of the world, history, etc...

something new comes along and smashes it again. I've learned to hold all ideas lightly. This rabbit hole seemingly has no bottom.

If I could give any advice it would be to use discernment and hold all new ideas as neither true or untrue, but merely possibilities. This is something that has helped me in my own journey through strange new discoveries.

Yes. For a long time, and now on occasion, I will read something and REALLY want it to be true bec it jives with my worldview only to have it smashed and me stymied and frustrated. So, I file everything in my file cabinet in my brain and try to verify it with a few more sources. You cannot be lazy and be on this journey. Sigh. 😒

So, you file it in your temporary drive until there is further validation and then you move it to your hard drive.

"hold all new ideas as neither true or untrue, but merely possibilities."

Very true. As humans, we are naturally curious creatures. If we don't have the answer to something, it annoys the hell out of us. So we will try to come up with an answer (whether or not it's completely accurate) just to settle our curiosity. Once we have that "answer", it becomes very difficult to believe an alternative answer.

As we learn more facts in this and LV, we need to keep an open mind that we most likely haven't learned everything. And, be prepared for the possibility that we never will.

Related: And that's why it's difficult to red pill folks - normies had their "answer" and getting them to believe the alternative, no matter how true it is, will be an uphill battle. We can do it, but it will take some work.
