Why It Matters
On most pages of this site, you’ll find a section entitled “Why It Matters.” If you’re a truth-teller, this section is primarily to remind you to be very clear with your audience about why this subject matters to you, and why it might matter to them. It may seem obvious to you, but consider making the case succinctly and clearly since some people may be so distracted or indoctrinated as to be unable to see what you see. If you’re a truth-seeker doing research, we offer information for your consideration.
As for the Enemies of Truth… why does it matter that we identify these techniques and defend ourselves from them? While most people can answer that for themselves, here’s a particularly powerful consideration in this 6-minute video by Graham Hancock. Although he is highlighting the criminalization of consciousness-enhancing plants, he explains the vital importance of personal sovereignty (that does no harm to others) and why human consciousness and human potential are being so violently suppressed.
Why should it be the case that a society is afraid of realizing human potential? It comes down to special interests. There are those who run things in society and there are those who are there to serve them and to serve their ends… Once we realize our potential, we don’t need elites anymore. Who needs elites? Who needs to be led?… We do not need leaders… over us telling us what to do… They have no right to do that. The moment we begin to wake up and start asking really profound questions about the nature of reality and about the society we live in, their power is instantly diminished.
– Graham Hancock
Note
Many people avoid giving attention and energy to issues they perceive as not affecting them or as beyond their control. That’s a crucial and effective strategy that preserves our energy for things we love and that we can directly impact. Topics such as the ones on this site may seem to fall within the dark underbelly of society, beyond our actual daily lives and our influence.
However, the subjects on this site have been chosen because the evidence demonstrates that they are, in fact, widely influential and impact our daily lives. In other words, nothing here is presented just because “you should be aware.” Rather, these typically hidden subjects are brought to light, bringing more awareness to how we can dismantle dysfunctional systems and replace them with healthy, sustainable solutions. By making informed choices and by joining with others, we can create positive change that will uplift and empower the many good people seeking to improve our world.
