Paulette Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I'm so glad to finally be here among you all. I'm almost 41, flat out obsessed with freedom, and looking for a safe place to explore dangerous ideas. Nice to meet you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsayers Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Pffft, that's like saying you're obsessed with oxygen after being nearly strangled to death. I mean... Welcome! Tell us more please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulette Posted March 19, 2014 Author Share Posted March 19, 2014 PREEEEcisely. I actually was born into a dictatorship...a real one outside the home as well as one within it. And a rebel out of me it made. But a terrified one. If that makes sense.... Because of that upbringing it makes me hyper sensitive to the violations of freedom that are now common place. I am most mystified by the rather "voluntary" relinquishment of those freedoms because of the ridiculous, nearly transparent propaganda. I discovered Stefan's work through Joe Rogan and now I'm here because I'm...well...lonely. It's nice to find a place where I can join in a conversation that will further my thought process instead of being torn down and accused of "insanity" for the conclusions I have come to simply by paying close attention. Also, it's nice to be around people who are intelligent and value that instead of finding it threatening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsayers Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I want my conclusions to be threatened. Because it would mean they're faulty and there is an opportunity to improve them. Or because they're right and they threaten something that needs to be threatened (propaganda). I am extremely grateful that Mike got Stef to hook up with Mr. Rogan. Stef has done a great job of networking and cross-sharing access between communities. This is the exchange of ideas that help us figure out which ones are right, which ones don't make it, and why. Viva la discussion! You mentioned a dictatorial home. Have you processed all of that yet? I've listened to a lot of Stef's call in shows and learned a LOT about the lies we've been told about familial connection, what constitutes abuse, how it shapes up in ways we really cannot escape until we are honest about that part of out lives. Self-knowledge, is that something you're into as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
