a. Truth
---------------------------
"Once you realize everything's an illusion you'll find the truth. Once you find the truth you realize everything's an illusion." - Unknown
“The pre-Socratic Greek philosopher Parmenides taught that the only things that are real are things which never change... and the pre-Socratic Greek philosopher Heraclitus taught that everything changes. If you superimpose their two views, you get this result: Nothing is real.” - Philip K. Dick
"People don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed." - Nietzsche
"The masses have never thirsted after truth. They turn aside from evidence that is not to their taste, preferring to deify error if error seduce them. Whoever can supply them with illusions is easily their master; whoever attempts to destroy their illusions is always their victim." - Gustav Le Bon
"An illusion it will be, so large, so vast it will escape their perception. Those who will see it will be thought of as insane." - J. Michael Thomas Hays, Rise of the New World Order: The Culling of Man
"They wanted me to live in the real world, but, to me, it’s the fakest place of all.” - Unknown
“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.” - Philip K. Dick, I Hope I Shall Arrive Soon
"... Even people who know we're right still want us to go away and STFU. Like the movie said they'd rather remain in the Matrix even though they know they're eating gruel." - Unknown
"The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists." ~ Hannah Arendt (1951), The Origins of Totalitarianism
"The masses prefer to be comforted with lies, rather than hurt by the truth." - Unknown
"Truth is treason in an empire of lies." - George Orwell
"The scared, timid and blind embrace deceit. The propaganda slavers are more than willing to oblige.
The honest and courageous will accept nothing but the truth, and call out every lie regardless of consequence." - Unknown
"Their most powerful weapon is the control of the 'truth.' And they are willing to fight, lie, smear, destroy, censor, confiscate, print, and do whatever it takes to maintain and increase their control over 'truth,' and everything, and everyone." - Nayib Bukele
“There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad.” - George Orwell
“If a truth burns down a relationship, a family, a community, or a society, it was only ever held together by lies. And to that I say, let it burn. I never want to live in a world where our need for 'comfort' supersedes our need to stand on a foundation only truth can provide.” - Mark Groves
"Remember, the bitterest truth is better than the sweetest lie." - Unknown
"My love for the truth outweighs my fear of offending you." - Unknown
"When your feelings matter to you more than the truth, you become a prisoner of lies." - Brendan Schmidt
"You'll know the truth, and the truth will set you free" - John 8:32
"When the truth comes out, do not ask me how I knew. Ask yourself why you didn't." - Unknown
"When it gets serious, you have to lie." - Jean Claude Juncker
"Believe nothing you hear and only half of what you see." - Edgar Allen Poe
"Belief is the enemy of knowing. Belief takes zero seconds to figure out. Checking takes time and effort." - Flat Earth Dave
"Don’t say you believe it until you know what it says." - Unknown
“Do you _believe_ in Jesus? You can only believe in what you don’t _know_. Believing something automatically means you doubt it. You can only believe in what you don’t know. Cause you don’t _know_ Jesus…" - Unknown
"And then will I profess unto them, I never _knew_ you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." - Matthew 7:23 KJV
"When you know that you know. Then you know." - Pastor Dean
"Who are you going to believe, me or your own eyes?" - Groucho Marx
"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth." – George Orwell, 1984
"The eyes are useless when the mind is blind." - Unknown
"One of the most cowardly things ordinary people do is to shut their eyes to facts." - C.S. Lewis
"The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.” – Hellen Keller
"God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear; unto this day." - Romans 11:8 KJV
"Truth is like a Lion - you don't need to defend it, all you need to do is set it free and it will defend itself." - St Augustine
“Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.” – Gautama Buddha
"There is nothing hidden that won't be revealed, and there is nothing secret that won't become known and come to light." - Luke 8:17 KJV
"Increasingly nothing is real? No. Increasingly everything is being revealed." - Unknown
I suggest more people become philosophers and make truth their religion, and make the pursuit of reason and evidence the practice of that religion. If we must believe in something, we live our best lives through belief in the power of truth and the religious pursuit of it.
"Truth passes through three stages: first, it is ridiculed; second, it is violently opposed; and third, it is accepted as self-evident." - Arthur Schopenhauer
"The further a society drifts from the truth, the more they will hate those that speak it." - Selwyn Duke, teller of truth and leftists' worst nightmare
"What ails the truth is that it is mainly uncomfortable and often dull. The human mind seeks something more amusing and more caressing." ~H. L. Mencken

“When you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.” - Sherlock Holmes, in The Sign of the Four by Arthur Conan Doyle
“Our lives improve only when we take chances - and the first and most difficult risk we can take is to be honest with ourselves.” ~ Walter Anderson
"I cannot teach anybody anything. I can only make them think." - Aristotle
"If you're not seeking the truth, sorry, you're not getting the truth. TRUTH isn't pushed to you on your iPhone, it isn't found on the front page of Yahoo, and it certainly isn't on network news. Keep this in mind: Convenient news that drops into your lap is AGENDA, not TRUTH." - MJ DeMarco Millionaire Fastlane
"You got to look deep to find the deep things. If all you ever do in your life is stay at the surface, you'll never find anything worth exploring." - Unknown
"Sure the truth is out there and there’s an awful lot of it. But a bit like the Holy Grail, which is only visible to the pure of heart, it can only be understood by those who have made the heroic journey." - James Delingpole
"Those closer you get to the truth, the closer you get to the Christ. This was my personal journey. I wanted to know the truth, and the more accurate facts I learned, the more faithful I became. The opposite is also true: the more you stand up for Christian moral values, and don't embrace the way of the world because it's fashionable or easy, the more truth reveals itself to you. The people who seek truth find Jesus." - Unknown
"We were created by truth. We will all answer to truth. Truth exists with or without our acknowledgement. It does not need us to believe in it. Truth has always been and always will be. That is Jesus Christ. That is the word of God. So if you want to know truth you have to respect truth. You have to humble yourself." - Dalton Gray
Until the masses let go of the lies and start to seek the truth, trying to wake them up is futile. Just as the Bible says: "For this reason, God sends them a powerful delusion so that they believe the lie, and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness." - 2 Thessalonians 2:11 KJV
Remember, the truth doesn't require conspiracies. The best way to eliminate conspiracy theories is to just tell us the truth. But then they would implicate themselves…
"Maintaining lies is an expensive proposition. The truth costs much less. Lies provide a brief tactical advantage, but the deliberation of truth slogs on certain of its final, strategic and glorious victory." - Unknown
b. Consequences
--------------------------
“The dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed." - Unknown
The elite know the truth. Conspiracy theorists have a vague idea of what the truth might be. But for the masses, most have no idea. Unfortunately, denial of the truth has consequences. Without a spiritual anchor firmly in place, finding absolute truth is hopeless. The consequence of ignoring reality for society is chaos and enslavement.
"Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you want." - Howard Marks
"If you can't make them see it, make them feel it." - Ronald Reagan
"Boy, if you don't listen, you're gonna feel." - My Dad
"Pain will be repeated until lessons are learned." - Unknown
"Lessons in life will be repeated until they are learned." - Unknown
“In the Klondike lessons cost money. Good ones cost lots.” - Tony Beets from Gold Rush on costly mistakes made by rookie miners
"We're sorry, but we're all out of cricket mcbuggets and soft kill clot shots. The next item on the menu is available by that brick wall. Just walk on over to it, stay real still, and someone will bring it over to you shortly. ~ your loving benevolent unelected overlords." - Unknown
"I look both ways before crossing a one-way street. That's how much faith I have left in humanity." - Tom Hardy
"Dead people receive more flowers than the living ones because regret is stronger than gratitude." - Anne Frank
"I Squint at the Sun because it is Bright.
I Squint at People because they are Not." - Unknown
"When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. It is difficult only for the others. It is the same when you are stupid." - Unknown
"Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize, half of all people are even dumber than that." - George Carlin
"Smart people learn from everything and everyone, average people from their experiences, stupid people already have all the answers." - Socrates
"We note further that people who have isolated themselves from others or who live in solitude manifest this defect less frequently than individuals or groups of people inclined or condemned to sociability. And so it would seem that stupidity is perhaps less a psychological than a sociological problem. It is a particular form of the impact of historical circumstances on human beings, a psychological concomitant of certain external conditions. In conversation with him, one virtually feels that one is dealing not at all with a person, but with slogans, catchwords and the like that have taken possession of him. He is under a spell, blinded, misused, and abused in his very being. Having thus become a mindless tool, the stupid person will also be capable of any evil and at the same time incapable of seeing that it is evil. This is where the danger of diabolical misuse lurks, for it is this that can once and for all destroy human beings." - Bonhoeffer on Stupidity
"Those whom the gods wish to destroy they first make mad." - Daniel, a Model for Young Men (1854) by William Anderson Scott
"Hell is the impossibility of reason." - Platoon
"Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing." - George Orwell
"The goal is to Divide, Demoralize, and Destroy - Mao's 3 Battles." - Unknown
"What most people don't realize is that the ENTIRE GOAL is to have a society that has:
1) The government and those that work for it
2) Huge corporations and those that work for them
3) The unemployed and those dependent on handouts" - Unknown
The basic concepts are perennial in their attraction to those who seek to dominate:
1) Create an upper class of those who are highly positioned in both industry and politics.
2) Cripple the middle class economically, so they no longer have the power to make their own life decisions.
3) Offer dramatically increased dependency on the State as a relief from the economic hardship created by the state.
4) Remove freedoms in trade for the promise of generosity from the State.
5) Institute a police state and totalitarian rule to ensure the new paradigm will last.
6) Once controls are fully implemented, and the populace has become dependent on the new system, begin to remove the promised entitlements.
The idea behind this final bullet point is that once the population is thoroughly dependent upon the state, they will have lost the power to object or rebel if entitlements are removed. They are then fully dominated.
It is just as the Bible prophesized in Revelation 13:
1) One world government -> World Economic Forum
2) One world religion -> Abrahamic Family House
3) One world currency -> Central Bank Digital Currency
