RE: The truth about truthers

in #news7 years ago

This was a good read. I've considered myself a truthseeker for a few years now and it's been quite the rollarcoaster as my old world or what I perceived it to be has crashed and basically disintegrated. I grew an insatiable appetite for a good amount of conspiracy and alt news info. I'd download and convert YT videos to MP3 so I could stream them all day during my daily routines to try and grasp of bit of the truth, sort the crazy, and I'd dare to share some of the info with the ppl close to me. Most of them didn't want to hear and thought I was losing my mind. But I realize now, I needed to experience this and to learn how to have discernment. This was quite a time for me--a major time of transition. And it was very dangerous. I'm an adult and when I think about how all of this alt news that may have 2nd and 3rd motives are accessible to the youth--that is scary. The well of information - lies, truth, half lives and such are all so easily accessible. So just as you laid it out on here, it's so important to be objective and as rational as possible in this big ride of crazy. Wild times we are in...Wild times.

Sort:  

It's very scary, but it's good that it's out there. It will harm a lot of people, but it will also do a lot of good. People like you and me learn from it, it's a learning process that wouldn't otherwise be possible.

D'accord! (Agreed!) 😉

I know a little bit of French, i understood that one at least ;)

truly interesting times we are living in!
