I don't believe anything, but I have many suspicions. - Robert Anton Wilson
The present as you think of it, and in practical working terms, is that point at which you select your physical experience from all those events that could be materialized. - Seth (The Nature of Personal Reality - Session 656, Page 293)

If only this was required viewing. Brilliant doc, thanks for posting...Posted by happyuk (here)
This video is kind of off-thread, but still very relevant to the point you make about the ultimate goal of destroying the traditional family unit, and which is very much explored in this presentation.Posted by Mike (here)
...and they are both black men, which I don't think is insignificant. Huge kudos to both Marcellus Wiley and Jason Whitlock for standing up to this madness. And loads of credit to Tucker Carlson for continuing to do the great work.
Wiley, an ESPN sportscaster, uses BLM's own words on their website to demonstrate their goal of destroying the traditional family unit. And Whitlock calls them out directly as being the Marxist political party they really are

It's called "Countering The Conspiracy to Destroy Black Boys (1987)" by Dr. Jawanza Kunjufu
In this video he explores:
- When the conspiracy started
- Who is against black boys
- Why is there a conspiracy against them
- What exactly is the conspiracy.
- The relationship between black mothers and their sons
- The relationship between teachers and black male students
- Case studies
- Rites of passage - when do black boys know when they have become men?
The video is nearly an hour long and I wish I could pick out the most relevant bits but I can't, simply because it's packed with solid arguments and information from start to finish.
"It's not a conspiracy to destroy black men, it's conspiracy to destroy black boys. If you destroy as boy, he'll never become a man". Such a painful to hear truth.

Being new here Ernie doesn’t make me new to the world. It doesn’t even make me new to the truther experience. I went through my awakening over 20 years ago, very confident with who I am and how I see the world but I do appreciate you reaching out to make me feel welcome. Just don’t expect me to change. It’s not why I’m here, sorry.Posted by Ernie Nemeth (here)
I think, JustJane, that you are right. You have been fixed in your views for some time now. It is quite understandable. And not much anyone says will change that right now. Many of us came here with rigid stances as well, brought about by having felt isolated and alone for so long. And you are right.
Soon, however, if you stick it out, you will soften, and you will question your own views. Only then can learning begin anew.
I hope you hang around, your views are fresh and unique. They will alter our views as well.
Thanks for being you.

Actually, this isn’t true at all. Social organisations are not the same as churches, and they do lead to real world changes. The feminist and labour movements of old brought enormous change to our lives and communities.Posted by DeDukshyn (here)
It is not an organization's responsibility nor ability to fix the world's problems. We have several of those that have been "trying" to do that for thousands of years - non of them make the world a better place. Organizations are so prone to corruption by outside interests through the acts of funding and philanthropy. Its everywhere in plain sight to see.
So who's responsibility is it? It is all of ours and requires all our participation. If not, it is easy to sit back as a non participant and say "I wonder if BLM (the organization) has fixed the world yet?", or worse feel like they don't need to participate at all because "its the problem of the BLM organzation, not my problem to solve."
Joining a club, giving them money and practicing their rituals in the guise of fixing the world is what religions have been doing for a long time. It doesn't work. It doesn't do anything but give you the illusion it does - ad infinitum. People in their church have absolutely no idea of the corruption that has plagued their religion and would likely deny it if you told them. The group think offers protection to the corruptors.
I am speaking generally and broadly about how such organizations are most always hijacked by more private interest groups. Its risky and potentially dangerous. BLM is no different in my eyes. When I look at their guidance I see them only trying to encourage ways to promote outrage culture, find ways to make money for donations (of course), etc - instead of focusing on love and reconciliation, and small acts of kindness that go a long way - you know, the stuff we actually need.
Its up to each of us individually to influence the change, not some private clubs that have instructions for white people on how to act, etc.
This is why I do not support BLM the organization, or pretty much any organization - I didn't really learn the full truth about the cancer societies, until my father got cancer, then it became obvious that they were a front.
I of course, as indicate early in this thread support the black lives matter initiative and concept.
2 cents.
Of course their open to corruption, no ones arguing they’re not, but at this point, they are achieving some important ends. You may not agree with them but those achievements are being made regardless.

So we support black lives matter until they start to organise?Posted by Bill Ryan (here)
Exactly, and Amen to that. blm and BLM have totally different ideologies and agendas.
The following is not intended to be critical or dismissive of anyone reading this... it's just a true subjective statement for me. It's sometimes really quite hard for me to understand how smart, aware people can't tell the difference. That often truly bewilders me.... it seems so obvious.
Noted.
