Flipped

Normal problems are being labelled as mental illness when what appears to be real mental illness is being heralded as ‘normal’. It’s causing quite a stir as you would imagine. The lunatics are running the asylum as the saying goes, but quite literally in this case. And this is where you might feel a bit like Alice did, falling into a topsy turvy world where up is down, backwards is forwards and left is right, nothing making sense while at the same time making perfect sense. It could also be likened to the character of Sarah in the Labyrinth, with twists and turns, a strange deadline and demonic distractions leading you into someone else’s odd perverted game.

Where reality as you knew it, gets flipped and turned on its head and what isn’t becomes what is, and what is becomes what was. And really is a bit more than just having the rug pulled out from under you, it’s actually like having the whole damn floor removed and everything underfoot. With the added concern that anywhere you then go to place your feet, is whipped away as quick as you can settle, as is meant to happen. Being grounded and rooted is not on the cards for the future it would seem. Trying to dislodge and disconnect reason, logic, nostalgia and familiarity in all its forms, and replace it with a loopy and sinister ever changing and interrupted existence. I don’t know about you, but so far, it’s looking more haphazard than anything we have ever witnessed, with a streamlined digital society seeming more far off now than it ever has. Which is odd in a way, because before the ‘pandemic’ was rolled out, it looked as though it would have been far easier to get everyone on digital if they had really wanted that. Systems were slowly being tied in, they could have gradually implemented it for travel, money, education and lastly for health.

But it would seem to me, and many others, that it was never about digital, or I.D on their own, there was something else they wanted. Which is why I can fully understand why people may think something was in the jab, the insistence on everyone having it, the systems they then wanted for it, the possible Bluetooth ID’s of people etc. And even now, when it should be a slam dunk that it has been an economically and medically catastrophic decision which has caused untold harm and misery on millions of people. But it seems the wheels of corruption move on at pace, continuing the destruction and treachery, for their 30 pieces of silver one must presume. Because when it all goes to shit, the people who helped to pave the way, will have been promised something surely, to make them be the good little middle men and women, believing they are safe, and like the special pets of the ringmaster. Why else would someone saw off the branch when they are standing on it? It may well be that the numbers are so gradual for losses, and with all the people replacements happening, there will be no ‘moment people realise’. Statistics and data are now so corrupted and people have been so saturated with them, they probably don’t represent the real picture anyway. You won’t see them disappear; they will just be someone else. Like in Dark City when they inject new memories and personalities into people, just a seamless changeover of lives to carry on with a new task and purpose.

Just as the population grew, infrastructure was needed and people to maintain it. If they want to eliminate this phase of the experiment, or let it run through to what many suspect is the goal and conclusion, there won’t be the need for such an elaborate infrastructure. And it makes me wonder if that is what happened before, when we find what we say are old abandoned cities, or civilisations. Speculating on what is left behind, not quite realising that they too, may have been instructed to ‘dig their own graves’ too and destroy everything around them. I think of Dark City again here, as part of the opener of the film was about the fact that they made the doctor destroy his own memories, so they could use him as a doctor, but so that he would not be a threat with any knowledge of the past. And they do say, knowledge is power, and seems to be so very important in the play unfolding currently, what was, what is, and what shall come to pass…

Rocking The Boat

Another of those classic sayings, in its varying forms. But the main one being ‘don’t rock the boat, especially if you are in it’, which most are probably familiar with. And if you have ever been one of those people who have indeed rocked the boat, what happens thereafter may have given you a different view of the saying. Because once you have rocked that boat, you begin to see who benefits from that boat staying steady and stable, and being told not to rock it insinuating that you are a problem that will disrupt the smooth sailing of life and that steady heading.

But we aren’t all going the same way or with the same purpose, and you may end up finding yourself in the same vessel as someone else anyway, and when it isn’t working, it seems wholly appropriate to rock the boat, or just jump out of it altogether. They have another little saying too to help hold people back and imagine how bad it will be ‘out of the frying pan, and into the fire’. At first they seem like useful sayings, to give you wisdom and understanding of situations, but as with much they then can get used as a tool by some to give hesitancy to people or to interrupt their thoughts and ideas, with ‘words of advice’.

And that’s where you realise that life is like a boat for this analogy, for each of us, and sometimes you step into or you get pulled into someone else’s boat because they need the ballast, or company, or have a use for you that you aren’t aware of yet, and they need you to stay in their boat. So, will do what it takes to make sure you stay in there, telling you there are sharks, no land, only that boat, no other routes etc. All sorts of sayings, ideas, worries and anxieties to make you dread the thought of ever leaving that boat and being in your own.

There are also the other occasions where it is in fact necessary to rock it, throw people out of yours and perhaps capsize it altogether depending on what circumstance may befall you. Where some people will take whatever action and consequence is necessary to adjust their position on the ‘boat’. And what if it starts sinking all around you, like I have mentioned in Poseidon Adventure, but this would be further along, where there is no longer a boat, but what remains are the shocked inhabitants who can’t believe it’s not there anymore. And even when it may appear you are sailing on calm waters, or drifting along in life just being you, completely unaware that something may be just about to take that boat from under you…

Ownership

A system of legal ownership over something or someone. Funny really to think that in order to ‘rightfully’ take things from people, you first have to tie them into the same definition and system of ownership as required.

Land agreements for example, they seem to be about fair apportionment, or dividing up something so people can ‘own’ it. Swiftly followed by ‘legal’ means to take it from you. All sorts of things this applies to where there is a certificate, or deed, or treaty. By signing into their ownership scheme, you then fall foul of their ‘ownership’ enterprise. Where It becomes about a Monopoly, rather than fair and free trade, but people wouldn’t have fallen for it so easily if the words fair and free meant just that. But under that guise, it became unfair and heavily restricted, regulated and a ruthless conglomerate gradually swallowed and crushed any competition or complaint. My article The Digital Doomsday Database looks at that a bit, and why it was they started compiling data on who, when, what and how much for more than just tax purposes.

And the thing is with ownership, if someone doesn’t think they own anything, you might think it’s easy to just come and take it away from them, and in a way that is correct. But, with no sense of ownership, how exactly is it that you make them then recognise it is yours once you decide that? You see, there needs to be a two way understanding for ownership to work, otherwise it doesn’t. This is where I find the new phrase being touted for the future of consumerism and sustainability, which we all must be familiar with by now. You will own nothing and you will be happy. And in principle, I can see how that might work, and maybe did once upon a time. Because owning nothing and being happy only really works if everyone owns nothing, and doesn’t want to own anything. Being possessive over things and driven by desire for more seems a trait some in society say they want to get rid of, while doing it on a grand scale. So make of that what you will.

But a personal sense of ownership is important I feel, not for material things and money, but for yourself. As it may well be that while you are distracted by things, and how much you have, someone is installing ownership over you and your personhood. It’s not just land, money and food that is up for grabs in the corporate play unfolding, people are a massive commodity and always have been. What they can do, what they can offer and how much a person and family actually generates for the system throughout their lives is probably more than we would like to think. Give thought to how much they interfere from birth to death, and how much money is made from both of those things and each step in between. And they make you think you actually cost money for them to ‘look after you’, which they then take from your slave wage contract you were taught to believe was a choice. Groomed from birth to be part of that system of worker for your whole adult life. Shunned and treated as an outcast if you chose to not take part, and things then put in place to make it harder and harder for people to choose an alternative. Telling you it’s your choice but only giving you one option kind of thing, and hounding you if you then pick the one that doesn’t give them a very intimate control over your life. Threatening legal action, and financial penalties upon you as a professional tantrum, making it appear to everyone that it is ‘for your own good’, and sadly many people have fallen for that over the centuries.

But learning to own yourself before material things is important, and understand who may want ownership over you. There are many institutions in place to tie you in by way of contract and legal agreement, to keep you beholden to the system and constantly having to come back. They own you. You’ve heard that phrase before haven’t you? But do people give thought to who is the owner, and who is the owned? It may that they are trying to break down someone’s personal sense of ownership over themselves and their possessions, because now the need has switched from Consumerism as we knew it, and moved into the ugly phase of us truly being the product as mentioned in The Mark of The Beast. All they want you to ‘own’ is debt, so they can say yes, no, jump higher and so forth. But their weakness appears to be that sense of ownership, because without it, no-one would care if you were trying to show off with more. So they need you to want to own money and things, so they can own you…
