Was talking with another user about a talk given at west point about secret military technologies, that narrative.
He mentioned that the talk was still given at west point, as if this made it more likely to be true.
And what I'd like to talk about here a little bit, is the idea of signs and symbols, and what they mean.
It could have been a talk given at the white house, or the pentagon, or the papal throne room for all anyone cares.
The fact it was at west point just means west point was the theater set is all.
And thats basically what I'm trying to highlight here.
The signs and symbols don't have their surface meaning. They only have meaning, as it were, in relation to the ascribed intent of whoever chose those signs and symbols (in this case, whoever chose west point). And to determine that you have to start by asking what you know. We don't know the 'who', so we can't ask that and get a useful answer. But we can start to pick at the edges of an answer on the 'what': whats the intention, the agenda, what agenda benefits from us assuming this is real? What direction does this move the needle on my own beliefs? What secondary beliefs are moved because of that? (say moving the overton window from impossible, to implausible, which by itself is a useful accomplishment). Etc.
The picture formed might (probably) be incorrect, but is the overall theme sending you in the right direction? Thats what you should ask about the assumptions you form from the impressions given by propaganda.
Thats how you start to observe whats true vs false.
Basically we've entered an era where nothing and anything could be true (well, disregarding the hard sciences, but even those are being distorted). And because of that, what you have to do is draw on what you knew before this era began, because without a past you have no anchor to orientate yourself to the future, and because of that both the present and your impressions of the future end up being whatever and external power decides they want it to be. Which is why it is so important for them to alter, redefine, and erase what we know about the past.
The past is all thats left of what we know about the truth anymore.
And because the artifacts of the past are mostly memory, the truth, which we can use like a sword to split twain fact from falsehood, mostly comes from within.
It's why the globalists want us all dead. We're the last, the remnant of the past that is holding back their control of the narrative over the past, present, and future.
