"One side is trying to terrify us into destroying ourselves; the other side is trying to terrify us into saving ourselves.”

This reminds me of something I saw in an interview with Mike Rowe a little while back. The conversation turned to all the CV BS and how a portion of the population still clings to the narrative as if it were April 2020. The interviewer asked him when does it end? Rowe paused and said "it ends when people get bored of being terrorized." It was extremely insightful and maps well onto the War of Stories. If a story is boring, people lose interest - they walk out of the movie theater, they don't finish the book. It will be interesting to see the reaction to the rumors of another pandemic waiting the wings - how many will say 'sorry, that movie sucked, and I am not interested in its sequel.'

That's a great way to think of it, CGG.

Mass psychological tension creates Shatterpoints, as discussed in my latest.

Excellent piece, as I’ve grown to expect from you BB! You’ve given us so many “instant classic” phrases in this War of Stories, but this one sums it all up so simply, yet thoroughly:

“Peaceful Conflict”

Such a perfect term for what we are both witnessing and participating in during this Great Awakening. Contemplating this term in the context of J6, it made me think about how much the Deep State enemy wants the unawakened but reachable masses to believe our Movement is one of Violent Conflict. Certainly, the narrative put out by the MSM, and then reinforced by the sham J6 Committee played up this picture. But this picture was painted with a brush of lies and deceit. And now, as the truth about J6 is rising to the surface (as the Truth always does), the reachable masses are starting to realize that the story they were told about J6 was, at the very least, a highly skewed picture of what really happened that day, or at worst, an outright lie.

The narrative that “America First” is a Violent Conflict movement is disintegrating faster than Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities.

We are, and always have been a movement of Peaceful Conflict with a goal of permanently changing [their] System by awakening the masses to [their] lies. The exposure of this massive lie that we are somehow a violent movement not only destroys [their] narrative, but moves the Overton Window making it OK to identify as “America First” without being tarred and feathered as a “violent insurrectionist”.

I wholeheartedly believe Donald Trump knew it would play out this way....that it HAD to play out this way.

Sometimes you can’t TELL the public the Truth. You must SHOW them. ONLY THEN WILL THEY FIND THE WILL TO CHANGE.

Paradoxical statements have always appealed to me, especially those that are NOT paradoxical once examined more closely.

The War for Peace marches on.

Good comments. Right now I am extremely troubled by the story that came out on Gateway Pundit about the horrible treatment of one of the J6 prisoners, Samsel I believe is his name. NO ONE should be treated like that, kept in a tiny cell with a bucket for toilet, no blanket, light on all the time. Pure evil. I don't care what "crimes" were committed, how can this be happening in America? These prison wardens and guards need to be held accountable and punished.

It likely will awaken many to the truth, and if not all the truth, at least generate many prayers for this young man....and the prayers WILL make a difference.🙏🙏

It’s great how in that moment we heard your words, we knew some gem had been formed.

“One side is trying to terrify us into destroying ourselves; the other side is trying to terrify us into saving ourselves.”

Resolute Hope 🇺🇸

“But like the grooves worn into the bedrock of the earth, peaceful conflict brings lasting change, change into which the future can flow over the memories of the past.”

Beautiful 🙏🏻

Let them fight indeed. Trump and the White Hats have known all along how this would play out. It was planned, and they knew that the Deep State/System of Systems would walk right into the trap. [They] have no other option.

[They] knew that despite holding on to the apparent reins of power, in reality the true power was held by the masses. Once we (the masses) realize this is true, their reign of terror comes to an end. As with the Wizard of Oz, trembling behind the curtain.

This is why their side is making so many unforced errors. They are running out of ammo (both Actual and Narrative), infighting and trying to book a trip on the last lifeboat out of port. To where? Who knows, anywhere out of range of the slings and arrows they know will be coming their way.

It's not much of a plan, but it's all they have. As with all Finite players, as the game goes on they are running out of options.

Right. They're 'unforced errors' from one angle, but in the Game Theory sense, they've been forced into the unforced.

thanks again BB, your Friday feature is one of the highlights of my week here in the UK, where there is no one I can even talk about US Politics , Devo/COG or even the Q Drops seriously ......the one person that certainly does know what's going on, I tried to reach out and he had blocked me on one of the platforms !?!!!......anyway thanks again, and God Wins......the enemy really hate the 'God Wins' saying, so all the more reason to apply it, even if you are not 'traditionally' Religious =funny that !!!!

Great article BB, again :-))

This is an Awakening that Trump and the WHs are nurturing and your statements about how our belief in our God Given Rights are being revived is spot on. We had been reprogrammed to the DS Rat Bastards world view and at least for me it wasn’t until Trump came down that escalator that I began, ever so slowly at first but faster and faster since, to understand that God had a better plan for us and that we needed to Awaken to His World!

Now we are engaged in this fight and We the People are sharing the Light in every way we can. WWG1WGA!

NCSWIC!

God Wins!

God Bless!!!

You explained the American spirit in this single statement, ‘Because conflict begets change, and because change, for better or worse, is the way of the world.’ Your ‘cage’ background that is a new revelation to me this week (different, albeit short video) does explain your clarity of the war of stories (and information) at such a young age....a time when many of your ‘peers’ are still relying on parents’ financial support, if not still in their parents’ home. You’ve obviously been blessed (through God’s gifts, parental guidance, good teachers and the ‘cage’ experiences) with clear understanding of what the US and the world is facing as the evil is moving to the last stand, and more importantly, you have the gift to explain this battle in story form, exactly the form we humans were created to learn from, to fight, and to change. All of the ‘great stories’ include a battle between the underdog and a force that cannot be conquered; yet, the force is destroyed! You, my young friend, are a great gift in this battle! May God continue to bless you and your wife; without her support you would be less successful! Please thank her for sharing you with your readers and listeners. It matters to so many of us.🙏🙏

God uses us in so many ways and my inclination is to always look for ways to support and encourage others. I consider this may be even more important to these young journalists now as they ‘go against the grain’ with their research and articles! My Mom ingrained me to never say anything about others unless it was positive! Didn’t appreciate that as a teenager (🤣) but it has certainly stuck with me.

God bless you, my French patriot friend!🙏

Quiet despair and resigned apathy are self silencers worse then self censorship - the black pilled

Passion picks a fight and is resolute. The path of the Patriot, everywhere, is strewn with fights. Fights with family and friends that mostly end with their eyebrows raised in ‘crazy’! These early seeds of opposition have been sown with the most grace we could bestow.

As the latent pressure builds that will push the paradigm of change, economic & pHARMa impacts, the memories of those fights, that irked them so, will push through and germinate.

DJT has taken every fighter under his wings and provided the lights and audience to cheer (care) for us as we put ourselves in the ring. The resolute under dogs punch on ... the 12 round bell sounds

Agreed. Perhaps another word for the blackpilled could be dispassionate.

I've been making a definite effort to sleep a bit more of late, hence a slowdown in features, but hopefully quality over quantity.

Quality over Quantity! Indeed!

Socrates was right. We should know ourselves. And, listen to our bodies. Because when we get overtired we get run down. When we get run down our immune system becomes weakened. And with a weakened immune system we become vulnerable to any bug that happens to be going around.

This fact is known by the cabal, which is one of the reasons why the MSM is deliberately negative. (It causes stress.) A key component of the Covid Psyop was constant negativity and fear mongering to stress people out and weaken their defenses. (Sinister.)

This is why it is so important to take care of ourselves and each other. Family is important. Community is important. Love and friendship and neighborliness are important. That's why part of Marxist ideology is to destroy all those things.

I'm a week behind with story time.

Started to watch Barbie last night but only made it 30 minutes in. I recognized the reference to 2001 A Space Odyssey (saw that in the theater when it first came out), but, the rest of it was very foreign and bizarre to me. I come from a disciplined background (army brat), I'm Southern on my father's side (like the Waltons on TV), and I currently live in Pennsylvania Dutch Country, so I am a combination of subcultures. When you and Chris are talking about people, I'm rarely included in your demographic. This is a problem with generalizations. Yet, it's why there were reports of the government threatening to target the South canvasing regions of the area with authorities going door to door because Southerners were the least vaccinated. Why? Because

they didn't/don't trust the government.

We are not homogenized in this country, and that's a good thing.

Vivá La differènce! (French for hooray for differences.)

But, at our core we have common sense.

I just read somewhere recently that in the 2020 election Trump actually won California. Well, if that's true, there's hope for this country. Take care and God Bless you and your family.

Good advice, KJ. I've definitely felt this myself in 2023, so I've been trying to listen to my energy reserves more closely these days.

I think you might enjoy last night's discussion on AI, simulation and God between Chris and I.

Thanks for responding.

I enjoy ALL of your episodes!

I will get to the AI one eventually.

But, I want to finish Barbie first.

Also, unless I am mistaken, AI is restricted to logic. Right? It doesn't have the capability of being clairvoyant, clairaudient, or clairsentient as human souls do.

We are multidimensional beings.

AI is just a machine. But, as I am a faithful fan, I will definitely watch. I come from a family that believes in lifelong learning. And, I'm learning from you guys. So, it will definitely go on my TO-DO list.

No matter how open minded I try to be, I can never (originally) have a male's perspective. I really am learning from you and Chris.

As I am old enough to be your mother, I'm giving myself permission to tell you that I love you! For your mind, but, of course! I've enjoyed your contributions and your perspectives for some time now.

But, I have 2 suggestions/requests :

1) that as intelligent, educated people, we stop calling the psycho/sociopaths "Elites", and start calling them what they are - "Elitists".

2) Also, use the (old-fashioned (?), British(?), Southern(?) term of "awakened" rather than "awoken".

I really don't want to give genocidal maniacs undue respect, or have anything remotely "woke"near me.

As we are in an information war (according to Gen. Flynn)?

Let us be mindful of our words.
