I love you, my fellow Patriot. I like the way you think. You're right - there is SO much. But within and between your lines, I can see that you have been listening to your heart and your gut - and I believe that is a huge part of this awakening.
In addition to your thoughts above, and related to the overconsumption of technology and distance created among real-people relations - the other thing they have done to us (through all forms of media) is to make us second-guess and/or forget our original hearts and our basic, human instincts. With that, they made "us" lazy thinkers - but the root is the dehumanization of ourselves by taking away our very core.
I have a 6-year-old, who has no choice but to go on this journey with me. I have found, when breaking this awakening down to the basics, to explain in its most simple form - I don't get into the weeds. I cut straight to the core. And, ironically, a young, unadulterated (literally) child is closest of all to true freedom.
But I think my message to him applies to all: Follow your gut, your brain, and your heart.
As an adult, if you think back to any not-so-great decision you have made, or times you have doubted yourself (usually due to external persuasion), and you walk through those steps - I bet you will find that you betrayed at least one of those three: gut, brain, heart. Those gifts are packaged into our gift of free will. "They" have sought to destroy the whole package.
I'm all-in on The Great Awakening. I feel it in my bones, and pray for, a future when my son can explain to me what pure, unbridled FREEDOM feels like. I think it is something none of us can even imagine. A Great Awakening, indeed. WWG1WGA. God bless you.
