I have observed that many of the greatest rebellions that altered the course of history have started in mountainous areas.  It is not surprising that there are protests in Washington State within view of Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Rainier, Mt. Adams, etc.  People living in areas like this have known freedom and individual responsibility and are unwilling to relinquish their rights.

Societies are tribe-based.  Tribes provide an identity, protection, and community for an individual.  Thus one&amp;#39;s cognitive biases are huge and often blinding. Lots of emotions. Tribes; Vaxer, Anti-Vaxer, Trumpster, Orange-Man-Bad, etc. The Power That Be (TPTB) understands this and plays people against each other.  Keep people divided, fearful, and destabilized (to control-first destabilize).  Critical to understanding TPTB create their “Pseudo-realities” with Corporate &amp;amp; Social media via their; gaslighting, narrative, gatekeepers, and algorithm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We need people to the tribe of; reason, logic, and truth. The tribe where reality is “common sense and truth.”   It appears to be a very small tribe. Action item: Get a sheet of paper, divide it into two columns with the headings as such: 1. Pseudo-reality of COVID-19 (Dr. Fauci)    (1st entry - “Conformist”) 2. Common Sense.   (1st entry – “Critical Thinker”) 1. Pseudo-reality of COVID-19 (Dr. Fauci)    (2nd entry – Fear, control, &amp;amp; coercion) 2. Common Sense.   (2nd entry – Life, liberty &amp;amp; the pursuit of happiness) 1. Pseudo-reality of COVID-19 (Dr. Fauci)    (3rd entry – “Jab” only solution) 2. Common Sense.   (3rd entry – Early treatment saves lives) 1. Pseudo-reality of COVID-19 (Dr. Fauci)    (4th entry – The science is settled) 2. Common Sense.   (4th entry – Open discussion and discourse lead to the best solution)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Continue to fill in the columns.  (And no, I have not tried this, can&amp;#39;t get them to turn-off the TV) Individuals are being fired (many from taxpayer-funded positions), losing their lively hood,  because they made a choice they consider in their best interest.  These brave and courageous souls are FREEDOM FIGHTERS!!  I salute you – WSU Football Coach Nick Rolovich!  And is the Pseudo-reality working?&lt;/p&gt;

In fact I&amp;#39;m amazed at the number of Americans, ( including members of my family) who practically obey every command given them by those in power. It&amp;#39;s time Americans wake up and realize that they will lose every shred of their freedoms if this continues on as it is. At 85 y/o I consider myself well informed on what&amp;#39;s happening day to day, but feel that too many people are trying to &amp;#39;go-with-the-flow&amp;#39; too much instead of realizing what&amp;#39;s really happening to this country and the world. That attitude is going to cost them the loss of most of their freedoms.&lt;/p&gt;

We know that the totalatarians attempt to gain and maintain power by creating a dominant singular narrative from which dissidents’ views are excluded. The Covid sham had momentum because of the co-ordinated and collaborative corruption of the central institutions including most media. Hence it &amp;quot;seemed&amp;quot; that almost everyone agrees with the relentless propaganda. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Protests are a natural response of the dissendents, and though it looks/feels that nothing changes,  these demonstrations/ protests empower people by showing them (dissenters) that there are thousands/millions perhaps of people who think the same things. People realise that they are not alone, they then feel inspired themselves to take action, even if just posting comments on Mercola.com, sharing information, maybe even joining a protest march. Change is then internal, (psychologically/emotionally protective) though not evident externally, YET!&lt;/p&gt;
