Morning all.

Those of us who no longer believe a word of what any establishment or mainstream media outlet tells us, for whatever reason, find ourselves having to assemble our own truth from events that occur around the world.

And these events, as presented on twitter can also be faked especially when they come from a single source.

Where they come from multiple sources (peoples phones for example) they are more likely to be true.

Heuristics

Humans are very good at making mental shortcuts that allow us to solve problems and make judgments quickly and efficiently – this is called heuristic thinking and it is thought to have evolved in us as a survival strategy.

Occam’s Razor

Also, linked to this is Occam’s Razor, a principle that states that if you have two competing ideas to explain the same phenomenon, you should prefer the simpler one.

Be sceptical

So we should all be adequately prepared to make some sense of the world around us by applying the above, yet many of us choose the convenience of being spoonfed what the establishments and traditional news outlets around the world decide the truth is.

And they all tell us different stories and yet we choose to generally believe the words of our countrymen and their allies!

This contradiction alone should inform us that someone must be telling lies. So when you come in here berating us for questioning the narrative be aware that we are past capable of being shamed in to quiescence.

Many are now awake from this societal slumber, our evolutionary instincts have kicked in and unlike you we are now much better equipped to survive the environment we are now in.

Being skeptical these days may save your life.
