The Living Force
I'm truly sorry for your loss, Yupo. Having lost my own father several years ago, I know how deeply that hurts. Fortunately, things were politically and culturally calmer back then, so when my family gathered it was purely to console one another and remember him. As it should be. Politics has no place at a funeral.
Regarding their acceptance of the Narrative, despite their being paper-smart: this is also a familiar experience to me. My colleagues are extremely intelligent people; you have to be to work in the field we're in. Yet they all believe the rona is as dangerous as claimed, despite the evidence conclusively demonstrating the opposite. There is effectively no correlation between intelligence and resistance to the narrative, because the narrative does not rely on subtle distortion so much as it does on psychological conditioning achieved via emotional torture and indoctrination. In effect, people have been hypnotized, and susceptibility to hypnosis is predicated on strength of character, not on intelligence.
Basically, people are weak. And that goes especially for people who have been highly educated, because the educational system selects for, and indeed cultivates, insecurity and neuroticism. The result is that the educated have very little confidence in their own capacity, but are constantly seeking reassurance from authority that they really are officially smart ... and they know in their gut that that approval can be withdrawn at a moment's notice, so are constantly vigilant of the boundaries of approved opinion, lest they transgress those boundaries and lose their smart status.
I think to understand why the majority of "paper smart" individuals lack critical thinking ability when it comes to issues like covid or other "conspiracies" we need to take a holistic view of existence.
We need to understand that officially, God is dead, spiritualism has no basis in objective reality and notions such as the soul are ridiculous. The world is material.
Such individuals have a very strong intellectual centre but all the other centres are probably not functioning anywhere near the level they should. We should also realise such individuals lack "B influences". I for one initially thought this covid was the real deal and never had any strong misgivings about vaccines. Through my interactions here, and what I came to learn about vaccines since Mr Gates opened his big fat mouth, I've done a complete 180. Also I've had many years of being exposed to the sort of influences present here.
In short, without "B influences", a decent enough period of being exposed to such influences and an inner openness to accept one may not be right, including holding a view of the universe as taught by Laura then I think one has their work cut out in figuring things like this out.
The paper-smart people may as well be low functioning AI as beyond their intellect (which AI will surpass), given their (material) world view, there's nothing else. What then is the difference between them and AI other than they were born and inhabit a carbon based body rather than created by software engineers?
