I know really good people who are intentionally ignorant about world events. Good people whom I trust with the key to my house and with my life. They seem a lot happier than the more informed people. It is hard to say which choice is better, especially in the short run. I do envy them often. As far as the long run goes, time will tell.

Ecclesiastes 1:18

"For with much wisdom comes much sorrow, the more knowledge, the more grief."

God wants us to know that not all truth is pleasant. Evil exists. The choice is ours whether we want to be informed or not.

The tragedy is that if anyone chooses not to be informed, they cannot help anyone else wake up. Instead, they would prefer keeping their personal pursuits of pleasure as the priority in their life. Sorry, I want people I come into contact with to have a chance to wake up.

I agree! I would love to wake them up. But I know they would hate me for it. I think they all have some vague sense that there are bad things going on all around them and they really do not want to know more. I myself can be that way sometimes. My husband will read about some despicable thing that Satanists are doing and he tells me just to trust him when he says it is worse than vile but he will not provide any detail because he knows how despondent I would become for a time and I thank him for sparing me. So, I get it.

and the scriptures also tell us to stay awake and to keep on the watch...

remaining silent IMO is being an accomplice in their crimes.like the German population who was fully aware of what Hitler was doing,hey have blood on their hands IMO again...does not mean I am right it is just my opinion

I hear you, and ponder such things daily. In defence of being informed, (and all mental the plagues delivered there-in), I also ask this question, "Who or what has the authority to suggest that "ignorant bliss" is that to be sought?"

Further, what true, lasting price is attached to the temporal bliss?

I too am either blessed or cursed with the "blissful sect" in my own life. The vast majority of the "blissfullers" in my life seem to have been distilled from the programmed narrative.. via mainstream, corporate, culturally approved media sources.

I expect the bulk of them adorned an array of deltoid bandaids that coincided with wallet sized passports, demonstrating their complicity to The Science du jour. Most of them, (in fact I personally only know of one exception), have no interest on any level of rehashing the events that exploded upon us in late 2019.

I may well die younger than many of my "blissfuller" connections, as a result of duress and concern...but even so, I willfully chose that over intentionally shrouding the world from my mind so I can enjoy a faulty version of ignorant bliss.

This is not a lecture, simply the musings of an at times...tortured mind.

Fortunately, for me, in my blissfully ignorant circle of friends, they are very mistrustful of government, and so they ignore everything government says, and did not get the jab and did not wear masks and do not listen to MSM.

The same way Tylenol blocks the exits of purging cells endotoxin wastes, and contributes to Autism, cancer tumors seem to be the result of a blocked process. Once unblocked the tumors disappear.

To the writer...

I think most people know what you say....

But, enlisting catchy words do not solve issues..

Try enlisting solutions along with attention seeking words..

That way people might open up to your catchy articles

If you were in the slightest, physically, mentally or spiritually prepared you would not be saying that. The most natural response when things go down is to kill the messenger

Being more diplomatic would help you to... What the Robin is being to your attention is that dangerous attitude the sheep and NPC's have...Normalcy Dias.. Meanwhile normality is gunna be not remotely normal Monday morning. If you bank at one of those big banks now underwater because of COMEX shorts your life will not be remotely "normal" either...

Normalcy bias is a mild way of saying it. Deer caught in headlights?

I'm well aware of things...

Solutions?! Are you after a Savior?

I am glad that I am not the only one being treated like crap on social media. I am so very careful, but careful is not enough. A person can misconstrue just about anything, so am not commenting any longer. This is it for me. Not because of you Robin because what you do I respect. People are really on edge and I get that, but being a nasty person isn't helpful on any level. We need real solutions, but the problems are so massive it seems impossible. Growing a garden and getting to know my neighbors, and serving on the school board is wonderful when things aren't blowing up every day. Not sure I have heard one good solution yet. And no voting does not mean anything any longer.
