Overcoming the Allure and Impact of the Bombshell

4/25/2022

The word bombshell has two distinct connotative/metaphorical meanings in English. On the one hand, it is often used to describe a very attractive woman. On the other hand, it can also be an unexpected, surprising event or news that turns out to be unpleasant. In my mind, these non-literal definitions tend to blur together to create a condition in which one is drawn toward an event or information that surprises in the negative.
 
I mention this because the word bombshell has been thrown around a great deal in the past two-plus years. These days the word relates to shocking and sensational news rather than to beautiful women. The implication behind a "bombshell report" or a "bombshell study" is simple -- the information contained in either is bound to rattle people to their cores and perhaps even get them to reconsider their previously-held convictions and beliefs.
 
Alternative media sources have been dropping bombshells all over the internet since the 2020 global totalitarian coup, but nothing has managed to rattle the masses. This leads me to believe that the masses are largely immune to non-System-endorsed bombshells and only respond to the sorts of bombshells the System endorses and promotes via its usual mainstream channels.
 
System-endorsed bombshells include the litmus tests -- the birdemic, the peck, the racial agitation movements, the trans agenda, etc. -- and any other external event or news that can be elevated to the status of "the current thing."
 
Non-system-endorsed bombshells -- such as independent medical studies revealing unpleasant data about the peck -- have no real bombshell effect because they rarely attract the masses and, thereby, rarely manage to shock them. On the contrary, nearly all end up being duds at the mass level.
 
This reveals much about what we can expect from bombshell reports, stories, and studies going forward. Anything the System controls will hit with great impact. Whatever the System does not control will have little, if any, impact at all.
 
This holds especially true at the level of personal experience. Those who rely on the System for bombshells will deny whatever sudden, unexpected, shocking event or information they experience firsthand. They will not allow anything to challenge previously-held convictions or beliefs.
 
Those who are surprised and shocked by sudden, unexpected events they experience at the personal level may drop previously-held beliefs and begin ranting and railing against some aspect of the System, but very little of this ranting and railing will expand the force of the non-System-endorsed, personally-experienced bombshell.
 
Thus, the non-System-endorsed bombshells will continue to explode. They will explode through the "the bombshell reports" released through non-System endorsed sources, and they will explode at the level of personal experience as people face sudden, unexpected, and unpleasant events and news. Yet none of these explosions will make the slightest bit of difference to the masses unless they are "picked up" and magnified by the System itself.
 
This makes me think there are some lessons to be learned when it comes to post-2020 bombshells:
  • The only “real” bombshells have been System-endorsed bombshells. Only the System has the power to rattle people to their cores at the mass level.
  • Non-System-endorsed bombshells have been and will continue to land as duds at the mass level unless the System decides to promulgate them as its own bombshells.
  • Non-System-endorsed bombshells should not shock or surprise us if we have been using intuitive and spiritual discernment since 2020.
  • Bombshells experienced at the personal level should be approached as opportunities for spiritual learning, regardless of whether or not they are connected to the 2020 global totalitarian coup.
  • To sum up, much can be learned by overcoming the allure and power of bombshells in this time and place.

Its like metaphysically there are 3 types of people.

NPCs who either know the truth but actively refuse to acknowledge it, or are just flesh robots anyway and following programming so incapable of truly knowing anything.

People who can naturally (or maybe supernaturally) see conspiracies and always suspected the truth even before they knew and who acknowldged the truth.

So-called "normies" who are incapable of understanding the other two groups. And the normies consider the other two as merely ignorant (alternating on which one they think is ignorant, based on the topic at hand, aka "the current thing") and in need of bombshells to convince them.

What happened to gut instinct? Educated out of us? Destroyed by TV? There is tremendous Evil upon us, We should sense it, like an animal before a tsunami, but all I see is obliviousness, negation and willfull blindness. God help us all.

@ Dennis - I get the sense that true gut instinct is connected to our spiritual natures. If that connection is severed, the only thing that appears to remain is reacting to external stimuli.

Hey lets adopt simple reversions? Respiritualization, Re-Humanization. Language is our tool, not theirs. And lets start thinking about a solutions based secret online society

Of course this is an extension of the faux WW3. Francis i hate to do this but we have to; De-spiritualization brought me here; lets start playing the reversal game- what can we do to re-spiritualize the world?
Lets start playing an offensive game. Not in a violent sense, but in whatever sense it requires.

Democracy is shit. I am an unemployed undercredited bum but i could replace LITERALLY every ministers post in the country, and do a better/ more efficient job. I, and you, and probably anyone reading this, could run the whole planet better while murdering less people, for sure. You would be better ministers/ advisors in that setup than any of the morons that passed around the last millenium. We could have a real democratic council debating things and not trying to fuck over the common people. But that is not what Sorath wants.

I recently watched the movie with the 3 blondes and what's his name from 3rd rock from the sun as the Fox director, cant scrub it from my mind, thats your hollyweird limited hangout i suppose.

If you would allow me to paraphrase some of your conclusions though; more trauma is required before people see things for what they are, perhaps?

Am i in a luxurious position then, having died before i am dead; something considered required back in the days, and/ or part of initiatory protocols. Perhaps very similar to what Jesus said about the narrow path; not attainable to everyone, in some cases by physical means? More and more i feel like nothing really changed in the last couple of years, but it definitely shone a light on the diversions already present. And the pretensions already there, and the positions already entered, just not exemplified as clearly; oh i care about you, but....

@ lea - I understand your frustration. Respiritualization and rehumanization are imperative, but they can only occur at the individual level in this time and place. As for secret online societies, etc., I think it's important to establish and have strong relationships with others, but these circles of relationships would have to be small and everyone would need to be on the same page, as it were.

Having said that, associations of like-minded individuals in relationships that honor the primacy of the spiritual should not strive to "change society" or "re-spiritualize" the world in the conventional sense in this time and place.

People must focus on changing and respiritualizing themselves, one at a time. Those seemingly small actions and thoughts could be amplified and could have an effect on the larger world over time, but the larger world should not be the main goal.

We live in an era of unprecedented evil. There are forces at work that will likely not be stopped in the short term. We must, of course, oppose these forces, but opposition is not enough. Being against evil is not enough. People must find something to be "for" -- and this "for" must be greater than the "against." And this "for" can't be something System-based like "real democracy" or "justice" or some such thing. It needs to be much deeper. Much "more real."

Re the thought on respiritualization, and how this can be accomplished, a quote from the mind of Lynn Harold Hough:

"God has not made us to find the meaning of life apart from fellowship with Him. In their deepest moments, all people know this. You do not have to announce it as something they have never heard. You only have to recall to their minds something they already know. Religion always begins as a memory and then becomes a power."

Bear in mind that this can only be accomplished one individual at a time. One seed at a time.

Sorry about the chainpost, i was not entirely sober and pissed off more then usual, also due to personal circumstances. We've gone over most of these subjects before, but apparently i had to release some pent up stuff. I've taught myself to hit 'cancel' when too tired/ angry/ whatever, but sometimes ill slip a bit still it seems. The teacher i did not want or ask for resurfaced in a very complex manner, and now i have to live some of the Castaneda wisdom instead of quoting it. And perhaps that is for the better because some things have no value when they never leave the pages of a book, alas.

Love that quote, i would replace religion with spirituality though. Our whole process as rediscovery seems more relevant now then in a very very long time. And let that tie into this 'little' theme again; whatever becomes inverted can be reverted too. Reclaim language, and other things will follow.
