It seems like the majority of people have no clue what is going on right now in this country. They just go on about their lives as if nothing at all is happening. I definitely get not stressing about this full time, but, at least for me, it has been hard to pay attention to much else.
Apart from people being oblivious, when they are shown information or told about what is going on, many just seem to shrug it off as if it is no big deal, like it won't affect them.
It has made me feel like I'm completely losing my mind. Most people that I talk to have no idea that the President is likely going to enforce the insurrection act or martial law. Many have no idea that China has heavily invaded our country.
And even when they are told about it...they still just shrug their shoulders.
Am I the only one that is dealing with this?
Have totally felt that same way.
I think it is because once you see, you can’t unsee it. I tell myself to take a chill pill, that I am overreacting, but then something else happens to show me this nightmare (unless God intervenes miraculously), is really happening. A lot of people just don’t have the capacity to face the truth.
I’ve noticed that I have to willfully throw out whatever premise is being spouted to me by the news and the more I notice the efforts of them to shape the way I think, the more infuriated I become. It is an effort even for me and that is one of the reasons why it is so hard for someone who hasn’t seen to face the truth.
We falsely believed we didn’t need God in our day to day lives. We falsely believed we were Nationally safe. We falsely believed that what government did didn’t really affect our day to day lives. We falsely believed we could fill our minds with trash without their being a consequence. We falsely believed that self-reliance and not needing anyone was the ultimate goal. We falsely believed we could replace real friendships with less messy virtual friendships.
And that is just the beginning of the lies we told ourselves.
If Truth is our goal, we have to list the lies in the light and in the same breath counteract them with truth.
Bottom line: we trusted the political class not to betray us. And that was a mistake. A big one.
