Are keyboard warriors improving the world? Or are they just sabotaging true messages & issues, and adding to the systemic dis-eases that the boots on the ground and the strategists behind them are trying to solve?
By Nikki Wall
A few years ago, I said that I feared all of my psychonautic work had opened my mind TOO MUCH. That already being so disconnected from the world by existing in a population of humans where I am one of less than 2% of the people on the planet with the same or higher IQ, consistently being thirsty for and pursuing greater knowledge, and adding that much psychonautic work was damaging to my psyche.
The truth is worse than that, however. It is not my IQ, knowledge, and psychonautic work that is the problem. It is the systemic oppression that exists that puts me in such a rare situation. It was a finger pointing to the moon. I didn’t damage myself and I am not damaged. Our system is.
Yet, it is making this world more and more challenging to exist in without entirely insulating myself and avoiding interactions with other humans. Truly, I haven’t ruled out the possibility of ending up like Howard Hughes (with green juice instead of milk). Those who love me should just hope that my beloved outlives me to prevent this from happening.
What has made the past few months so torturous is just how many people are screaming about the fingers that are actually pointing to the moon, and acting like dogs barking at leaves falling from trees… and they just don’t understand. It’s happening in so many ways. So many.
I will give credit to the #BlackLivesMatter movement for at least addressing the whole systemic issue, as well as RepresentUs. Of all of the movements I’m familiar with at this time, those are the two off the top of my head that I can think of that are legitimate and diving to the roots of the issues. This is why, in addition to my agreement with their causes, that I support them.
What I’m having a hard time with right now is the rest of it. The fact that people are creating social media storms out of hashtags that aren’t addressing the issues. They’re empowering undereducated and irrational minds to believe that their keyboard warrior mentality is valid when it’s most often just sabotaging the true messages, issues, and adding to the systemic dis-eases that the boots on the ground and the strategists behind them are trying to solve. Those are the ones screaming at the fingers and barking at the leaves.
So, let me say a few things for those who think they are righteous and are actually causing MORE harm. Your noise does nothing. Your words are useless. You’re not a vigilante, nor should you attempt to be one in a physical sense. At best, you’re virtue signaling and the levels of general cognitive dissonance you display when confronted with actual facts are resulting in epic displays of Dunning-Kruger and simply outing the levels of ignorance and hypocrisy you live and breathe. You are physical manifestations of existential incongruences that are destroying the world… I’m not saying this figuratively… I mean it QUITE literally.
And, as a wise woman in the jungle said to me one time while I was going through a massive awakening, “I’m not even angry with you. I’m angry with the people who lied to you and the ones that did not teach you right.”
But, I still wish most of you would shut the fuck up, get off social media, and start reading books. Non-fiction books and academic pieces. Ones that teach you how to identify fact from manipulated fiction. What an ARG is. What science is and isn’t. The history of fascism and dictators on our planet. The history of colonialism, slavery, and what flags actually mean.
Authors that explain what true political corruption is and how to see it on the surface. Ones that teach you about the most common tactics used to deceive and control the masses. Ones that will help you understand why you berating others for being ‘sheeple’ and ‘pedo protectors’ or ‘reverse racists’ actually shows how you are – in fact – the sheeple that have been manipulated, poisoned, and programmed as a psyop that sabotages the real causes that will bring true peace and true justice to the world. The ones that the tech industry refers to as ‘persuadables’ because your minds are so easy to mold into whatever they want it to be.
I wish you would study philosophy and the history of the religions you claim to be a part of. Learn to become scholars of the things you say you believe in. Do exercises and play games that build your logic, ration, and reason in greater ways. Learn how to read statistics and medical reports, and figure out the difference between a peer-reviewed and fake paper.
I wish you would study the actual facts of the issues you THINK you’re fighting, but you’re actually supporting. The ones that make you look like an idiot when you talk about them because you have it all wrong.
I wish the conspiritualitists of the world would step back from the keyboards and phones, breathe, and do the real work that will educate, inform, enlighten, and inspire them to remember what the true battle is and get back on our team, instead of creating more reversion in the world that supports fascism, racism, environmental destruction, mass loss of human lives, the degradation of our education system, the furtherance of colonialisation and harm against BIPOC, modern-day crusades, furthers duality, crimes against humanity, and is destroying so many sacred things.
But, again… I can’t blame you for being the victim of a declining ‘education’ system that failed you, a digital world that brainwashes you, world leaders that lie to you, shady ‘doctors’ that care more about their popularity than people’s health, corrupt corporations and the politicians that they puppeteer, and for hundreds of years of devastating efforts to further the idea of white supremacy and western power.
I can blame you for your wilful ignorance and refusal to become a better human. I can blame you for not getting your mental health in line, educating yourself now, and taking responsibility for what you say and do in the world as it is burning down in more ways than I care to list right now. I can blame you for the harm you continue to cause others in spite of knowing better. I can blame you for propagating unrighteous hate and spreading your programmed anger out into the ethers… and if you’re really afraid of what AI will do to humanity… maybe you should think about how much it’s learning about each of us RIGHT NOW.
The likelihood of you even having the ability to actually comprehend this post, let alone the attention span to complete it, is low… and to some this will sound insulting, but it is just another sad fact that pains me… yet, maybe… just maybe… someday I will learn how to laugh at all of you screaming at fingers and barking at leaves, and drown out the sound of your collective madness.
I have one question though… how does it feel to be the modern-day men in the horse?
