Nope. I don't think so. The vast majority of people I know are in denial and they're way happier than I am. They still have "their futures" ahead of them, whereas we know our futures will be vastly different than we thought. Threats from the government for telling the truth, possible incarnations for same, forced vaxxes, property loss, due to new policies or vastly increased fees, on and on.

Edit: OOPS! Incarcerations! NOT incarnations. šŸ™„

I whole heartedly agree. Almost everyone I know is in this category. I listen to them talk about their future plans: trips, career moves, relationships, and remember what that joy felt like just a few years ago.

I still prefer the truth of reality and keep looking UP.

They only appear happy. Depression arises from under the surface that is so inexplicable that they keep it hidden from even their closest relationships. Peace does not exist without the peacemakers.

Ignorance is bliss. Most people prefer to remain blissfully unaware of

the catastrophe that is coming down all around us. Substack seems to be the one place where most people have an awareness of what is happening, and all are rightfully concerned. I don't know how to wake up the Facebook crowd. I have tried, but failed to inform them.
