there aren’t many must see videos; it’s more of a mosaic that becomes more revelatory with more inclusive data points (news that adheres to the story, or demands attention outside thereof) — that said, watch the following video at the link on
the art of a grand narrative with intricate details ;
the map / reality relationship:

fractions -> covid -> ukraine {<– link}
f[r]actions – it’s about the organizational structures, and leverage points;
the movie disclosure and the departed especially – what are the competing factions/loyalties/motivations/etc. — for 95% of the people [?] it is money, security, minimization of being uncomfortable [confrontation, hassle, do the paperwork (but complain about it with work “friends”), etc.]

fairy tales
all around
[all unbound ? abound ? ]
people simply don’t like [and have been conditioned not] to think for themselves
they’d rather pick the narratives offered
[ through consensus solidify or contra-indicate ? ]

what faery tails are you chasing ? what fair-y narrative am i in spell to ?

Ankhon Dekhi [movie] is fantastic

it’s the milieu

it’s the operating system behind the curtain
but,
what do i know,
hercule poirot ?

from: https://robertglazer.com/friday-forward/stockdale-paradox/
many addictions stem from just this: helplessness / powerlessness – not seeing any options or agency to escape the milieu …
and this is how it proliferates throughout a society, gets entrenched – everyone is looking for differences rather than similarities – shared humanity – coached in terms for warring sides that are both the “good guys” in relation to the other …

another gigaohm video, here a presentation by meredith miller on the psychology of the last few years …

“You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end — which you can never afford to lose — with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.”

–James Stockdale

the lengths people will go to in order to avoid having to think for themselves; and, ***gasp***, act on their own convictions? even with imperfect data, and in the face of uncertainty?- and this certainly applies to mySelf, well, through first-hand experience [know thySelf, and all … nothing in excess, surety brings ruin] …

Once the operating system is set up, sit back and watch how people back-fill and reiterate stories in alignment with the goals of the operating system that most people run automatically in the background, and which are protected through trauma – trauma that is constantly “re-triggered” through one’s interactions with _______ media, people, society, culture, etc.

With algorithms and ChatGPT/bots as operating system parameters – i.e., narrative gate-keepers, the system is kept “on – target” – This is cybernetics par excellence – coupled with man’s desire to fit in, appease others, go along to get along, etc.

An example of the back-filling and story adaptation to perceived unmovable narratives [the science is in, and has been settled] – fan-fiction ? one’s childhood [define love vs. safety/providence] ? politics ? government ? world-government ? rothschilds ? jews? russkies? immigrants? muslims ? climate change ? religion ? vaccines ? evil corporations [profit] ? guns ? energy? malthusian thinking ? breathing ?

The desire to extinguish life – conscious and unconscious –
to live back-words => evil / live

give people the operating system, and the system mostly runs itself ….

“the world tried to catch me, but did not succeed”

Troublemakers are easily flagged in such a system – canadian convey, twitter, a whole litany of data accumulation (etc.) ⇝ emotionally tinged, ai selected news stories to overwhelm any grand narratives and cement limited hangouts (i just learned of the memphis pd [james baldwin-black police-twitter], pelosi video ‽, project bs/veritas, california shootings g[al]ore, ukraine war [w/ iran/israel] … welcome to the quickening [music outro]:

“Disinhibited by the incipient disaster, everyone at the missile base becomes euphoric. …
The implication of the scene is clear: The only time we are really free is when the missiles are in the sky, on their way to obliterate everything, all possible consequences and disappointments. Lurking behind that is the idea that endless consumer desire is more dismal than actual apocalypse, in which (in fantasy, anyway) we can at least effortlessly get what we want for a glorious moment.”

tldr: YOLO , so make the most of it in trivial pursuit of nothingness !
[interestingly, Jordan Peterson credits his work/passion to fear and wanting to understand the MAD concept discussed in the article] MAD = mutual assured destruction, or how a fear story controlled world politics and a general milieu of nuclear Damocles

Carl Jung once warned that Western people who take up Eastern spiritual practices run the danger, first, of doing those practices inauthentically, since they are not beginning with an Eastern psychic structure; and secondly, of using those practices to avoid the real psychological work they, as people with Western psyches, need to do to ever become ready for higher spiritual practice”

“the Ministry of Education decided to create a festive atmosphere, and allocated 100,000 rubles for the task. The ceremony was to be led by Ukrainian actor, producer, and public figure [Vladimir Zelensky] Mykola Sadovskyi. Under his leadership, the city was adorned with national flags, Ukrainian drawings were hung on the balconies of homes and institutions, and on light poles rose the coat of arms of Ukrainian regions. Sofiiska square, where the Unification Act was to be declared, was particularly lavishly decorated. Solemn prayers and a military parade were planned.” …
“Nataliia Polonska-Vasylenko [report on the next day]: “The helplessness of the leadership influenced the general mood. Ukraine, squeezed between two great powers – the Entente from the south and Bolshevism from the north – didn’t have the strength to fight. Soldiers fled, and riots spread. This was the situation in which the union of the UNR and WUNR was proclaimed…but under the pressure of these joyless events, it passed by dryly, quietly.”
“After the Bolshevik coup in 1917, two of the Entente’s founding members – Britain and France – split the territory of the former Russian Empire into spheres of influence. Ukraine fell under the French zone.” – [L’viv does like to refer to itself as the Paris of the East]

Dostoevsky on the Slavic Question [<- also a link]
“If nations do not live by superior, selfless ideas, and by the superior aims of serving humanity, but only to serve their own “interests,” then these nations will certainly perish; they will lose feeling, grow impotent, and die.”

“Acquire a peaceful spirit, and around you thousands will be saved.”
“The devil is like a lion, hiding in ambush (Ps 10:19, 1Pe 5:8). He secretly sets out nets of unclean and unholy thoughts. So, it is necessary to break them off as soon as we notice them, by means of pious reflection and prayer.”
“It is necessary that the Holy Spirit enter our heart. Everything good that we do, that we do for Christ, is given to us by the Holy Spirit, but prayer most of all, which is always available to us.”

the link aforementioned – compare with The Slavic Civil War currently taking place …
e.g. Boris Johnson flying out to Kiev as soon as Z hinted at peace talks with Russia, twice …

and the armaments; and the money; and merkel and poroshenko admitting the Minsk agreements were meant to give time for digging in for war …

The Spanish Civil War is considered to be a prelude, and testing ground, for World War II —
My argument: Syria was the testing ground for the current Slavic Civil War, where Russia and the United States tested their weapons and battle strategies for the current conflict [theatre of operations; the dress rehearsal beforehand] let us pray that World War III does not escalate further – alas, I agree with many that World War III has already started.
