Internet Reformation: The Awakening Progresses Undeterred by Current Elections
By The Daily Bell
The Awakening Will Continue Regardless of This Year’s Election …
Every four years the public gets all riled up over the outcome of the
presidential election, projecting all their expectations and visions for a
better tomorrow on to a candidate in the hopes that they will swoop in and save
the day. However, the reality is that the outcome of the presidential election
has little to no effect on the direction of the country anymore. – Last

This article posted at the Last American Vagabond makes
points that build on some basic themes going back a decade or longer.
The main point in this article is the current presidential elections
will not put a halt to what we call the Internet Reformation.
Interestingly, the original Reformation was a controlled,
elite process designed to split the Roman Catholic Church asunder. But
like so many elite manipulations, the Reformation soon took on a life of its
own and moved in unanticipated directions.
The Declaration of Independence was unanticipated, for
instance. The elites of the day were horrified by the concept of a country
founded on the idea of natural rights.
There is considerable evidence that the French Revolution
was fought to bring back the idea human leaders, not God, created and
bestowed rights.
But in the US that idea has never superseded Jefferson’s initial vision.
This is one reason the US has stood at the crossroads of
world power. It is animated by a specific vision of freedom that is subversive to
authoritarianism and globalism.
This is also why we believed the Internet would have a
convulsive impact on many who lived in the US.
In the US, more than almost anywhere else, the Internet is
allowing people to discover the philosophical traditions of freedom that the country was
constructed on.
This is spawning a kind of mass awakening.
For a long time we received a good deal of push-back
regarding this point. People didn’t see that technology was a
fundamental trigger for evolution of human perspectives and psychology.
But we were confident. History seemed to show us that when
people are given truthful information they will act on it.
In the modern era, truth has been scarce. People
have been instructed from childhood that gigantic authoritarian societies are
natural.
As a result, many in
the West have a great deal of trouble understanding that in a normal culture,
people have a good amount of control over their own lives. They have the power
to influence their own circumstances.
The combination of monopoly money printing, wars, public
(state) justice and corporatism creates a noxious stew of top-down control that
gradually strips away the possibility of normal life.
One is not in charge of one’s employment, relationships and
cannot plan a professional and personal future.
Ordinarily, people wouldn’t put up with this state of
affairs. But until recently, it seemed that this was the only way to live.
People could not conceive of other options.
The lies were so
pervasive. The mind control was nearly complete. The net of untruths was almost
impenetrable. But not quite and now it is breaking down.
This is what happened after the discovery of the Gutenberg
Press. The Press did for books and paper communication what the Internet has
done for electronic information.
When people come into possession of forms of truthfulness that
contradict their current reality, they often begin to discard their illusions.
Not everyone, of course. Some cling resolutely to their
previous beliefs, but many change over time.
Here’s how the Last American Vagabond puts it:
The
world is undergoing a paradigm shift in consciousness that in many ways can be
compared to a new Renaissance 2.0. It is the development of a totally new way
of understanding all of the past, present, and future of the current reality.
There
should be little doubt that this conscious awakening has its roots in the dawn
of the Internet, which has opened Pandora’s box when it comes to the vast human
reservoir of knowledge and information.
The
access to data that the public now has all over the world at their fingertips
is light-years ahead of what was available just 50 years ago. Information that
was once incomplete, scattered all over the world, and disconnected from the
whole, is now all piling into one platform for all to see and piece together.
It really is the age of information for those who care to seek it
out.
The article makes the point that the current, disastrous
presidential elections won’t have an impact on the larger awakening. It also
seems to intimate that the current elections may actually expand this awakening
and speed it up.
What many fail to realize is that while a different outcome
may be desired in the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election, this conscious awakening
that is growing stronger everyday is not going to stop once it’s over.
Donald Trump certainly has good things to say. However, his
determination to pursue the War on Terror and his apparent lack of ambition to
do anything about central banking means he probably will not create substantive
change.
Certainly Hillary won’t either. Seeing this, people will
continue to turn away from mainstream solutions when it comes to initiating
fundamental change.
We regularly suggest that change starts with individual human action.
You need to take control of your own life before you can make a difference
elsewhere.
We will use a paragraph from the Vagabond article to end
this analysis.
Conclusion:
“It’s more imperative than ever that we continue the process full steam
ahead despite the show they are putting on to distract us. … At this point, we
just have to make sure we don’t stop digging right before we are about to
strike gold because that would be the ultimate shame. We are on the brink, so
let’s not stop now.”
