"There is also a bifurcation of shared realities." Exactly! That so many people can not see what should be obvious is a continual frustration and stressor. That the narrative holds strong, even when evidence is stacked against it. That you can not even discuss the evidence with most people because what they know to be "true" isn't true.

Yeh the eggshells
Perth seems to have been hit very hard by the denial and head in the sand attitude. Maybe it’s because we lived with the anticipation for so long before the actual virus hit.
I was extremely upset about this ostrich like attitude when I encountered it on Christmas Eve. I find it completely astounding that people refuse to look at the evidence that they were wrong.
I have always valued truth even when it hurts. I cannot understand when people completely refuse to look at evidence
This is somewhere I should really comment, but words would not suffice, another great article from you, and I am in permanent exile now, maybe in the same or similar place you were for a short while. The injustices, torture and suffering I endured, at so many levels, in Australia, were too great and too many to even write about, there are so many lessons in them all but I don't have the strength, even though I survived all manner of abuses that I know only few would survive, but the strong are tested more severely. When I returned after growing up overseas, I woke on the aircraft while everyone was asleep, including the stewardesses, though I can't say if the pilots were asleep, I presume not. I thought, that's unusual, I was a frequent flier in Asia, Africa, Americas and Europe, it is rare to find everyone asleep. I looked out the window and my eyes fell right onto Uluru, with the first rays of the sun just coming up on the horizon. I knew it had or has a profound meaning. When I arrived I found the entire country asleep, and I knew what bad things would come, and this was some 10 years ago. I had no idea, that I, who always struggled for rights and freedoms throughout my life, would face the worst abuse again and again from so many quarters, and be surrounded by so many without hearts nor brains, and yet I know that there are still good people there, but I did not find them near by.
This what Australia is going through, since we speak of Australia in particular, is necessary and the result of not caring about justice, not even knowing what justice is. Modified through food, chemicals, media, and the pathocracy (worth looking the word up, it describes systems such as Australia), education, entertainment, etc, the result is what we see among people. Without taking any responsibility, this is the outcome. Many are "waking up" but almost no one is working on solutions, and people are not ready for those solutions. They'd have to throw away so many false comforts, such as prejudices about Arabs, Africans, Muslims, Qaddafi, before they could be able to accept any truths. The solutions are out there, were practiced before, and with great results that the usual mafia parasitic elite censored, but nevertheless whoever could throw off any blinkers and fears, could find. You cannot unfortunately simply deliver it, it has to be fought for with blood, sweat and tears.
Don't give up, you are surely helping a great many, and I shared your blog with an independent journalist who is also on the path of seeking the truth. The entire system needs to fall down, it cannot be modified, reformed, to do so, would be to prolong the illness. People need to face the consequences of inaction, surrender, outsourcing their power to others. What you do not control, for example high technology, can and will be used against you. A return to reading books, especially from the aforementioned "other" is all it takes, and an open heart and mind -- with firm principles and values. Those without are like the froth on the waves.
Let's take the plandemic as one clear example comparing it to a tree. People look up and see the leaves: yellow and clearly sick. They grab a microscope and examine the leaves. Oh look, this leaf, the pfizer leaf, look how it is poisoned! And this leaf, AZ, and this one, Moderna! And they examine these small details to convince themselves, or prove, that the leaf is poisonous. But they're going about it all wrong. The logic is, the leaves are on branches. Since those branches, the lockdown branch, the media branch, the economic branch, the education branch, etc are also all poisoned, how can the leaves not be so? And why are all the branches, concealed from sight by the leaves, poisoned? Because the root of the tree itself is poisoned! This is the plandemic tree. And what is the root???
The root is simple, the "PCR test". Without it, the rest of the plandemic tree would not have functioned according to its poisonous purpose. And the root, why could it even grow on the soil? Because the soil itself, was poisonous, and only sick things can grow, nothing healthy. The soil is the mind of the people, or the people, and their consciousness.
So obviously the cause of everything is at the root of the tree: without it, the plandemic tree would not exist. It can be cut at its root. But the solution is the soil itself: it needs the right nutrients, pure water and sunshine, and it has to be tilled with good intentions. 💚
And karma will definitely come to the evil one who murdered the innocent defenseless cat. Everything has a consequence. The amount of evil and resulting injustice in Australia, which punishes and abuses the good and innocent, and tolerates the unjust, if it could be seen how ugly it is, where even neighbors in small cities and suburbs die alone, unknown, and the vulnerable are abused and preyed upon, murdered in old age concentration camps... and loving *everyone* is not the solution, we must love what is good and right and hate what is unjust and evil, and take action based on knowledge and firm principles, to rebuild everything.
Hope is not a safe or effective strategy. What you described here is similar to some degree everywhere. The global population moved acceptance up the list to the first reaction. That allowed the oppressors to proceed, unconstrained. They will continue only as long as we accept it. When a strategy fails continually for three years, the only rational action is to change tactics. If we do not become more assertive, each of us, individually, and stand up to depose the tyrants, we well become increasingly oppressed. Submission is contagious because it produces the depression that has become so common. Courage is contagious because it's an actualization of hope. It won't be easy, at first, but it is necessary.
I hear what you're saying, but I don't equate 'acceptance' with 'surrender', I'm thinking of it in the classical sense of the grief model set out by Kubler-Ross and Kessler. Here is Kessler's explanation:
Acceptance is often confused with the notion of being “all right” or “OK” with what has happened. This is not the case. Most people don’t ever feel OK or all right about the loss of a loved one. This stage is about accepting the reality that our loved one is physically gone and recognizing that this new reality is the permanent reality. We will never like this reality or make it OK, but eventually we accept it. We learn to live with it. It is the new norm with which we must learn to live. We must try to live now in a world where our loved one is missing. In resisting this new norm, at first many people want to maintain life as it was before a loved one died. In time, through bits and pieces of acceptance, however, we see that we cannot maintain the past intact. It has been forever changed and we must readjust. We must learn to reorganize roles, re-assign them to others or take them on ourselves. Finding acceptance may be just having more good days than bad ones. As we begin to live again and enjoy our life, we often feel that in doing so, we are betraying our loved one. We can never replace what has been lost, but we can make new connections, new meaningful relationships, new inter-dependencies. Instead of denying our feelings, we listen to our needs; we move, we change, we grow, we evolve. We may start to reach out to others and become involved in their lives. We invest in our friendships and in our relationship with ourselves. We begin to live again, but we cannot do so until we have given grief its time.
So essentially, acceptance is what allows us to reorganise ourselves into a new response to what is the new reality... I think that makes for much more effective push back against the order of things that we find so abominable. I don't agree that acceptance implies an absence of courage.
Anyway thanks for your comment, you've made me aware that I assumed shared understanding of the 'acceptance' concept, but I need to flesh it out more.
People are getting very nitpicky here - often "grief experts" like to bicker. I liked your piece and you are right. You MUST accept what is happening because people must accept reality. When I finally accepted that I couldn't save people from the jab, a huge weight was lifted from my shoulders. When I accepted that I couldn't stop McGowan persecuting me for being unvaccinated, again, a huge weight lifted. I still fight the good fight and won't rest until we see the ultimate justice, but acceptance is simply looking at reality and going "hello, I see you."
Kessler was talking about losing a loved one to a random event, and acknowledging the loss.. This was an orchestrated attack. Accepting that acknowledges defeat. When a superior force destroys an opponents ability or will to fight, that opponent is defeated. Certainly, accepting defeat can have degrees. In combat, withdrawing from a fight is not surrender, just retreat, unless the decision is made to not fight again. That is typically done to regroup and resupply before the next engagement. Another form of acceptance would be accepting that victory is not possible in conventional battle, so the lesser force retreats to begin unconventional warfare. Acceptance of defeat with no plan to continue fighting is rationalizing surrender. Hopefully, enough of us won't surrender. If we do, the assaults will continue.
I think the differentiation is a spiritual one. I still maintain that acceptance does not imply defeat. I might write more in this soon to elucidate. Anyway thanks for engaging, it's interesting to see how people interpret these concepts.
Spiritual considerations can be useful when we have time to contemplate them. But the problem we all face is much more tangible, and making it stop should be our focus.
That is all so. But we're talking (this is my understanding) not about accepting defeat, were talking about acceptance of circumstances, of others' perceived shortcomings etc. Instead of continuing with hurt coming from inability to understand/comprehend others' stance you come to accepting it as a fact and try to move on.
More to the point, we were talking about mourning the travesties imposed on us by the pandemic mania. Isolating a few personal losses and separating them from the evil that caused it won't fix the problem. Those who are focused only on their own losses should prepare themselves for many more. They won't stop until we force them to stop.
that's true, but i am not sure i want a part of it, it's totally corrupted, i envisage 2023 being a year of increasing numbers of people waking up, particularly in OZ, we have been too lazy for too long and blinkered by a lying deceitful MSM and political system.
Fabulous post, Rebekah. It encapsulates so many of my own feelings these past few years. I, too, have my eyes wide open now to the reality that unspeakable darkness lurks in some people. This knowledge makes me feel stronger somehow. I am so sorry about your beloved cat.

Very important. The amount of grief and interrupted adjustment reactions, are really underestimated in our society, even before covid, but the levels of betrayal and silencing of the griefstricken due to the covid response, and the uncaring, will have damaged lots of people. According to Bonnie Badenoch author of The Heart of Trauma, healing requires us to be accompanied by supportive others. Even this was taken away. The collective grief and trauma is massive and will have repercussions for many generations to come.
Not only are/were the tests a huge (intentional) misapplication of a technological procedure (because they had nothing else that would do it for them) and psychological demon trick script, there was/is no sars pathogen to prime any of their 'evaluating' (evil-uating) procedures in the first place.

In the final stretch of 2022, I jostled with bouts of depression, anger, despair, and hope. During the year, I made new friendships with people who are willing to talk about hard things. I retained friendships with people who were willing to let me be where I was at, and vice versa. Those relationships have meant the world to me.
Yes. We made the painful break from our church where we couldn’t talk about our pain post segregation, and joined a home church group where we can all voice the hardest things. And the friends who stuck by without fully getting it are gold.
Thanks for talking about the abuse we’ve suffered, and the slow (and probably not linear) healing.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I pulled myself out of a very deep well, with no help. Knowing that it's shared experience helps me keeping strong. In a way, now I see it as enriching my life journey although, I wouldn't want to go through
10 Jan 2023 chat to a testing worker - she is not even a nurse; just a nose picker
an islander woman.
She started to parrot some lines. I told her whatever views people have, I only ask that they don't try to "snow" me.
She started with "covid". Could not answer what it was. I noted that now something that looks like a duck, quacks like a duck is called a chicken! No replies.
She tried some fluffy arguments and excuses. I asked if she noticed the two lines of holes in her N95 mask. She did not answer. I mentioned that warning on a packet clearly said that the masks were not effective against covid!
She kept saying she only works there. I said we are having a discussion; nothing personal.
She had three. She said of course I had none. I told her about the vaccine vs bullet thing. She paused!
As we were about to end our chat, she invited me to come in to do a PCR test! I gestured that she could test my butthole! She recoiled slightly. Then I reminded her that was what China wanted us to do. She realised that I had been reading!
Told her: safe, effective and necessary.
I pointed to people still wearing masks. She said it was their "choice". I asked if "no jab, no job" was a choice! No answer.
She mentioned about having to travel overseas to meet family. I said except for those who *needed* their jobs, any other reason was voluntary. And volunteers assume the risk. No response!
I repeatedly pointed to the contradiction over people having to be isolated for 14 days over a case at a childcare - I mentioned economist John Adams - whilst the nose pickers did not have to! She tried to say they had to test negative. I also reminded her people had to isolate for 14 days even if they tested negative. She had no reply! She tried to use that close contacts, living together nonsense. So I had to set her straight!
I sensed she was surprised that I picked and pounded her on that contradiction!
We wished each other the best. She even wished me the best of health.

She tried to use that close contacts, living together nonsense. So I had to set her straight!
I sensed she was surprised that I picked and pounded her on that contradiction!
We wished each other the best. She even wished me the best of health.
