"Normal"
With all of the talk about going back to “normal” I needed to mention something:
Mandated medical devices (masks), medicine (shots, pills or procedures), or any other coerced thing is not normal. And no “emergency” gives anyone the right to change the definition of normal. Ever.
I have news for people who have been complying with insanity in the hopes of going back to something that they *thought* they had prior to said insanity. Your compliance has destroyed any chance of going back to any kind of normal we may have once had. The only way we would have had a bit of a chance is if we would have said no to all of this madness from the beginning. But, alas, very few did. Phrases like, “It’s just a mask” and (from a friend I spoke with) “I like the lockdowns as I’ve been able to get a bunch of stuff done” and from a supposed liberty-minded podcaster I USED to listen to: “I want people wearing masks because I don’t want people coughing on me” became commonplace and somehow we started liking the self-directed tyranny we were imposing. I say self-directed because nothing being “mandated” was lawful. Everything was just rules being made up by politicians, for the most part. Going along to get along, shaming, distrust, fear and dystopia became addictive for many.
We have no one to blame but ourselves (those who have played along anyway) for where we are now. And it’s going to get more and more difficult to climb our way out of this the longer we continue to do what the tyrants say (and a tyrant doesn’t have to be from the government, it can also be your neighbor or some nosy person in a store) simply because they say so and simply because “We saw it on the news” without one iota of honest research.
The best we can hope for at this point is to stop complying in hopes that the “new normal” is something we create for ourselves and not have imposed on us by our controllers. Let the normal that we create not be one that power hungry, greedy, fear mongering devils create for us! We have an incredible opportunity to build a normal that is inclusive, peaceful and full of hope. But it has to start now. And it has to start with each of us deciding for *ourselves* what kind of future we want to live in. We can’t decide that for each other. Yes, we are in this together and that’s great. But, when it comes to our individual future, that can only be decided by being just a bit selfish and a bit brave. And, we might even have to be willing to be inconvenienced.
Personally, I didn’t ask for this, but I am willing. I am creating an incredible new normal for myself, my loved ones and my community by standing firm and saying NO to insanity whenever I can. I hope you can do the same. Our very lives depend on it.
