Help For Normals (Sharing Is Caring)

Dear _________________,

Hi, my name is _______________________. Nice to meet you!

Our mutual friend, _______________________, mentioned that you seemed confused about the realities of the modern world and suggested that I reach out since I’ve had extensive life experience in helping individuals discover their own back door to The Truman Show.

In the spirit of good neighborliness, please allow me to clear some things up for you.

I know this will be hard to believe, but please bear with me.

The truth is that you have been told many things that are not true by information sources you deem to be prestigious—schools, colleges, media, politicians, experts, etc.

You were seduced into accepting these sources as authoritative after being conditioned to deem them as reliable.

You are led to believe that news items appearing on your TV constitute everything you need to know in order to be well informed.

In reality, the CIABCNNBCBS news network selectively withholds key information that they don’t want you to know, thereby creating the illusion that you have been told the entire story, while nothing could be further from the truth.

By keeping you in the dark, those who hold themselves out as your benevolent overlords can extract your labor (through taxes and inflation), your loyalty (to their political parties), and even your very life (as a spear catchers in their armies).

You have been told so many lies, half-truths and distortions that your mind has become shaped as a potter might mold a vase.

By isolating you from true history, your mental model of the world has been made to rest on a floating foundation of consensus reality.

Your government could, provably and for a fact, be run by multi-generational criminal syndicates and you wouldn't have a clue.

Indeed, you would likely deny the possibility of a such a state of affairs as being preposterous or outright impossible.

Your ego would not allow you, at least not easily, to admit that you could have been so readily deceived and manipulated.

After all, it is far easier to cling to the reality you “know” than to be forced to adopt an entirely new one.

But the fact is that no one forced the pieces of your reality into place.

You drew them in, accepted them and internalized them.

But don’t feel bad; we all did.

Until we woke up, that is.

Each new unexamined idea and unquestioned assumption was put into place by you.

All your secret rulers had to do was to make sure that the inventory from which you construct your reality is kept stocked with only those parts and pieces that you are allowed to access.

Frame by frame, scene by scene, the movie being projected into the theater of your mind has formed your personal hologram of reality.

And who is responsible for this?

Why, you are.

You built the sound stage, you approved the scripts, you direct the movie, you star in the leading role, you run the projector, you serve the popcorn, and you watch the show.

Are you still watching it today?

My personal lifestyle suggestions would be the following:

• Unplug cable TV.

• Homeschool your kids.

• Memorize the Constitution.

• Move to an all-red state (WV or OK).

• Make friends with your county sheriff.

• Read this entire list of 371 libertarian books.

• Join a local militia (real guns, not paint balls).

• Buy a home in the boonies and get some chickens.

• Stockpile two years’ worth of food and cash ($20’s only).

• Prepare for The Great Reset, Civil War 2.0 and World War 3.0.

I hope this was helpful.

On second thought, this might be overdoing it a bit.

So skip the part about unplugging cable TV.

You’re going to need some of those meds.

Your Friend,
