I had an epiphany that I will attempt to share.
One of the tangible things I’ve learned from the pandemic is when someone figures stuff out, way before you, you follow them.
I mean, if someone shares information tangential to staying alive, you keep them around yea? I do.
You may not like everything they stand for or say, but you listen when they speak & read what they willed to write.
I mean, folks, this is basic survival 101.
[until they lead you vastly astray by changing course or principles or back-stab 😝]
There can certainly be more than one leader. Everyone who has devoted effort here has led.
They may be a full-time academic in the field of study, or a retiree with nothing but time and curiosity.
But that’s not what I came here to talk about.
I came here to talk about the epiphany.
There are so many folks on here that have acquired levels of information relevant to survival that you just haven’t been made aware of.
Like the black belt with 20,000 hours and secret techniques, there are levels to this thing.
At some point, you’ll reach the level that many of us have where we said to ourselves, “Oh Shit!” And then we carry on and continue to try to warn others.
But the thing about gaining new insights is that it comes with a burden. You have to make sense of it so you can break it down to others who all vary in their levels of understanding.
The act of breaking down information into a digestible form can dilute it which means there’s still higher potency of knowledge among those who are doing the heavy-lifting.
These folks have insights you can’t imagine because they dug in, day 1.
Lots of meatheads and stuffy academics will refer to Novids, Long Covid survivors and anyone interested in learning how to avoid the plague as “a cult.”
It’s as much of a cult as those who enjoy Goonies.
Also, sharing information about survival is mostly bad news. Get used to it because you’re in store for a lot more.
Oh the epiphany.
There are things I’ve learned that I had to hold onto for a few days or weeks or years because I knew that to say them would sound
C R 🤪 Z Y !
That’s the challenge. It’s that sometimes there’s so much information we have to distill it and it dampens the signal.
