The evidence for that has been decisive for several years.

The mind control matrix, while pervasive beyond Orwell's dreams, is also about a millimeter thin and getting thinner. Doesn't matter.

People have made their choice (actually, I suspect most had made it by the 3rd grade), and our fate is bound to that of a zombie suicide cult.

I realize how dire that sounds, and I hesitate to mention it, as I have no desire to dissuade attempts by others (even those operating in an insane fantasy) which carry the potential to truly ameliorate the situation. But it is an honest answer to your question.

As for "how to break through", I believe the trick will be to consciously anchor truth between generations (which is precisely what the controllers have done with manipulative falsehood). Those with the vision and means must somehow lay the groundwork for this inter-generational approach, and must do so in the face of nearly universal denial.

Why "inter-generational"? Because once you've "done the numbers", and I mean truly done them, you realize that the phases and finitude of lifespan has been very much to the controllers' benefit. It's one of the main things that enables them to run the same scams over and over.

edit to add:

Petty, ego-based consciousness, as you observed upthread, is the obstacle of all time. Nothing can be substantially addressed without confronting that reality. We face a profound psycho-spiritual crisis, not a lack of information.

It's interesting to witness the theory of a grass-roots truth movement being articulated and disseminated. However, while I don't wish to disparage the efforts of those who struggle and have struggled valiantly, I do not share the autor's optimism. The pace is glacial (moreso than the glaciers themselves these days), and while tiny inroads are made over a period of years, whole generations die out and new ones born to be manipulated before anything approximating "truth" takes sufficient root. It appears to have been this way for a very long time, and I see no indications of the state of things changing sufficient to inspire optimism.

It seems the most we can aspire to in this life is not truth, but the least pernicious fiction that does not fundamentally challenge the psychopaths in control. To those who would protest such a statement, I agree it is a pathetically low aspiration, and goes against all conscience. But I'm not the one who decided on it. In fact, I resisted it greatly. That struggle, however, does not change the larger reality. It doesn't change the timelines. It doesn't change the numbers.

In short, the theory of a grass-roots truth movement, while completely rational, assumes facts not in evidence. People (as in anything even remotely approaching a critical mass) do not want to know. And even knowing, will not change one iota. Therefor, at least for the foreseeable future, we are left with advancing the least pernicious fiction, knowing we are powerless before wholesale enslavement and murder.

How to break through the chaos, the "new realities"? That seems to be the central question for any genuine truth movement. The premise behind the truth movement is that widespread truth would empower people to act in enlightened self-interest. The denial of truth is inherently disempowering.

What has vexed me to the limits of human endurance, is the unwillingness or inability of people to return to and proceed from first principles, ie. 2 + 2 = 4. We surrender our autonomy (and some might say, soul), in our refusal to assert a basic mathematical truth in the face of the relativist nightmare that engulfs us (on which liars thrive). Curiously, many on this very board pride themselves on their ability to perform advanced calculus, but assiduously eschew simple math. This approach ultimately only keeps the game going.

It has long been demonstrated beyond a reasonable doubt that the corp-media Beast is the mother of our destruction. Yet the majority still will not cut that umbilical cord and assert their autonomy. With respect to the "It is what it is" tautology and its grounding influence, I'm very much in agreement with you and NuttyFluffers. It echoes something I've been saying for years now, which includes an implicit declaration of autonomy -- "Everything is exactly what it looks like, outside the perception management matrix."
