One of the things I’ve naturally loved is good thinking. That includes being clear on what is a fact (in other words, what is needed for something to qualify as a fact), vs what is a fact-claim.
Why pay attention to this? So many fact-claims are presented as if they were facts.
Here are fact-claims - which may or may not be facts.
The injections are safe and effective. FACT-CLAIM - meaning, this claims to have a basis in reality.
Religion is the root of all war. FACT-CLAIM.
The core of all religions is the same - love. FACT-CLAIM.
The injections are dangerous. FACT-CLAIM.
Religion is NOT the root of all war. FACT-CLAIM.
The core of different religions differs - for instance, some have love at the core, and some don’t. FACT-CLAIM.
A fact-claim is anything that claims to be a fact. If it is substantiated, it can be categorized as a fact (and of course it still continues to be a fact-claim).
Substantiation. Evidence. Proof. That’s needed for something be a fact. Of course further evidence may come in, disproving or disputing the fact-claim.
Most people, however, utter a wide range of favorite fact-claims as if they were facts:
You are where you are meant to be.
Everything happens for a reason.
You create your reality.
Islam is a religion of peace.
All opinions are equal.
Only whites can be racist.
The planet will overheat in 12 years no matter what.
The end is near.
Again, why bring up the difference between fact-claims and facts? Because most people ACCEPT fact-claims, and STATE fact-claims, as if they were facts - without any awareness of what they are doing.
My guess is getting people to spout nonsense fact-claims as if they were facts is one of the achievements of the mind-controllers.
Why do I believe the mind-controllers are involved?
What many people hold makes so little sense - religion is the root of all war and love is the core of all religions - that I find it hard to believe all these people really are that out of touch with reality, unless brainwashing is involved.
Next I expect these people to state, straight-faced: Yes, there is a sausage growing from the end of my nose - right after they claim: Yes, everyone is where they are meant to be.
Of course some people may go: No, that’s not a fact-claim. It’s my OPINION, and I’m entitled to my opinion.
The answer. Yes, you’re entitled to your opinion, but then make it clear this an opinion that is utterly unverified, that you might as well hold that monkeys have 3 anuses, plus there’s a sausage growing from the end of your nose, it’s just your opinion, nothing to do with reality.
One big thing. People have generally not been taught to think, to reason.
Another big thing. We’re in the midst of a huge multi-layered psy-op.
If it were just a matter of people being misinformed, when fact-claims were identified as something other than facts, people would just nod and say something like: “Thanks for pointing that out. You’re right. I just said something that doesn’t make sense. How silly of me.”
But this isn’t the typical response. Instead, people tend to hold on rigidly.
I see that as a clue. A clue about what, you may ask?
As I’ve said, my guess is that if you follow the clues you come to the mind-controllers.
And then: what can you do if you spot, in yourself or someone else, a fact-claim given as a fact?
A jiffy next step. Say: Hmm, that’s an interesting fact-claim masquerading as a fact.
If the fact-claim is made by someone else, you could continue with: Could you tell me where you picked up that fact-claim? And what makes you accept it as fact?
And if it’s a fact-claim you’re making, you could continue with: Now where did I pick up that fact-claim?!?! And whatever made me accept it as fact?

About Now where did I pick up that fact-claim?!?! And whatever made me accept it as fact?
It’s much easier to undo the hold of fact-claims with group support, especially if the fact-claim has a hold on us.
Should you want to explore more in a group, here’s a invitation to learn more about AWAKE in a World Gone “Woke.” Support group. Think tank. Place to explore and implement effective strategies. And place to explore our own less awake and non-awake areas.

Thanks Elsa. Food for thought indeed.
Good one. I like the importance of self-reflection to see if we have caught any mind viruses.
