RE: The Media.....I gotta get this off my chest

First things first: I do realize nearly every single person who visits GLP knows there's a battle being raged through the media.

Secondly: I do not raise politics, religion, money up above my family and friends. I love my mother and brother very much, and I can't imagine hating on them for their beliefs....but they are a challenge. It's like coming up to a brick wall you can't "fly over"....heh, I always flew over brick walls when I dreamed or OBEd. I have broken through "glass ceilings" in my life by being persistent for my better well being.

My family is my immoveable brick wall I have to face....and it's not fucking easy. They both watch mainstream media, exclusively. Neither of them own a computer, nor know how to even use one. All their information comes from the "News."

I was trying to have a phone conversation with my mother about the election, was telling her about the elements of the steal - because she did not have a clue - and after a few minutes of talking, she stopped me and asked where I was getting my information from, and I said from a forum group I belong to that has many videos and much information about it....ffs, she screamed at me that there isn't anything on the Internet that can be believed in, and what was wrong with me?....

So, my brick wall is that I can't send them any videos or any links about the truth of what is happening, nor will they even listen to what I have to say because of God Media....I'm a poor little waif believing in what's said on the Internet. My brother laughs at me, my mom screams at me....and I'm just trying to help them to understand that not all is as it seems, while they've got the media's blinders etched onto their faces. Lawdy.

....we're supposed to all three of us get together later this Spring or the Summer. I'm already dreading it, as much as I am excited about seeing them both. My mom is 82 years old. I will always want to get to see her one more time before she goes "home."

I'm not sure how I'm going to handle the "ignorance" though. The way things stand, we're pretty much going to have to have most of what's going on in the world of people at large tabled, least it gets ugly.

For me, it will be very hard to not be sarcastic about something, if my back does get put against their wall by the two of them. I will have to ask them, both of them devout Christians, how they could vote for the political party that believes in, has voted for and passed, legislature that allows FULL FUCKING TERM ABORTIONS....and I won't regret it.





Orange Man bad, so full term abortions okay.


I'm so fucking sick of the hypocrisy....


Ahem, if but only my family had access to all the information....if but only.

Have you considered that they want to alienate families? Communism loves that as a prelude to seizing countries. They don't want you protecting mom, dad, and Aunt Susie.

You should show them one of the clips where every news station in the country does the same reporting with the same story.....

I just heard from my guidance, "Let go".

I can't let go of my family, I respond.

"Not your family, what your feeling. You are spiraling down."

Not to care about them?, I respond.


Silence.


Of course silence, because I'm spiraling and can't be talked to....


This is some real fuckery, this indelible love.


I suppose I can plant my feet firmly in that indelible love....and let go of the rest of it. Maybe. That'll be a first, and I'm a letting go artist.


They are adults....just really ill informed adults. I am indeed able to inform them....heh, "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them to drink it".

I don't think I'm even able to get them to the watering hole....:shrug:

let go that which you cannot change... and you will stop swirling in it.

Thank you for posting this. I can’t get through to my parents either. My dad is the most disappointing, because he really should be smart enough to know better. But my mom is neurotic, and he does whatever she says.

With the rest of the world, I could just say, “Let the stupid people euthanize themselves,” but I really, really don’t want to see my parents die this way.

And there is nothing I can do. I used to text videos and articles to my dad, but I know after one or two of those, anyone would start ignoring them.

So now I just pray that they will be ok. Even though I am not big on prayer. I will include your own family in my prayers, for whatever it’s worth.

And thank you again for this thread.

Why script your visit
go with the flow, be you
they are being themselves
so be you

it might take years for some to get over, at the very least you won't feel entangled in their web (bundle of timelines)

you share history, use that to help them relate to parallels, you might find that easier than them trying to swallow the latest (which they missed)

Quite frankly, I find it hard to believe you can have anything to do with them because they believe in killing babies. I see that you can love them, but why do you want to be around them. You know evilness usually rubs off on people much easier that goodness.

I guess I am blessed that all my family believes in the sanctity of life as do my friends - except for one former friend who I called out stating that if you encourage people or say it is OK to have an abortion, you are encouraging sin and God does not look lightly upon that.

I will pray for you but even more so for you family.

First time posting, but what you said got to me. My mom is 80 and lives across the country. We were talking about Covid and she believes everything the media says. I mentioned Hydroxychloroquin(sp?), and she said if something like that existed, that would mean the government and the media had been lying. I said 'Bingo', she didn't believe me, and won't talk about it. Didn't want me to send her the information I've collected. I love her and hope to see her again, but at the rate our government is going, I'm starting to doubt I ever will.

I finally realized that if my friends and loved ones haven't got it by now when it seems do obvious then they will never get it. It takes all my strength to stop myself from bringing it up. I don't see any value in upsetting an 82 yr old. They have been in a different paradigm for way to long.
That being said. You gotta do what you gotta do.

I would urge you to go. You can't control others only yourself and that is so powerful. Peace to you cosmicgypsy.
