Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
/“Why prove a man he is wrong? You can’t win an argument, because if you lose, you lose it; and if you win, you lose it.
You will feel fine. But what about him? You have made him feel inferior, you hurt his pride, insult his intelligence, his judgement, and his self-respect.”
- Dale Carnegie
What if everything we knew, everything we based our lives and choices upon, was a lie? What if the “science” we were taught was mostly a lie ? What if this world’s history was a lie? What if this was all done on purpose, not for us, but to us ? Well then, we would need to start to accept a new reality.
This piece of writing sat in my “to publish” file for a long time, in fact, the better part of a year now. But just in the last few weeks has a peace come over me, where being called crazy by so many friends, no longer triggers anything in me, or has me inhibited to share some thoughts and my beliefs. So here we go.
What if Einstein was a shill, and E=MC squared was wrong because he purposefully omitted the ether variable ? What if gravity wasn’t really what we think it is, possibly a lie as well? Why did no one teach us about toroids and toroidal fields and Nikola Tesla’s genius work? What were they hoping we would not learn about and discover more deeply? What if most of our physics we were taught, and based our understanding of the universe upon, was filled with lies ? What about biology ? - what if most of what we have moved forward with in research on the human form, human biology and physiology , even “evolution” was wrong, intertwined with lies? What about our religions, history, geography, climate change, wars and our politics ? What if this was all about control? Lies upon lies, for control. Corrupt science layered on top of corrupt science. Corrupt history layered on top of corrupt history. Corruption on top of corruption. At some point the pot boils over if left on the heat long enough, and I think we are at that moment in time, soon at least, very soon. Our present reality may be about to abruptly change because there are too many glowingly obvious cracks in the foundation (well, for some of us I suppose). Like the water of the Fall season, creeping into the cracks of our foundation, then the freezing winter cold, enabling the water to expand and crack open even the largest and apparently firmest of rock-solid foundations.
“A man convinced against his will, is of the same opinion still.”
“Science” as we know it, with many of it’s lies about to be exposed, has shown us that even in the light of facts that contradict firmly held beliefs, a man often tends to ignore the facts, and sadly, a significant number of people will become event more entrenched in “their beliefs” even when presented with further mounting evidence. Hasn’t the pandemic year 2020-2021 shown this clearly enough ? The facts are right in front of us all, but many, largely because of fear and conditioning, and the principle I have laid out above, will disregard the facts. This is the principle of cognitive dissonance. This lets evil easily slip in the back door. Tainted persuasion is a powerful tool. Little by little, like Fall’s droplets of water seeping into the cracks, waiting for the winter freeze, where water destroys rock; water and evil tainted persuasion often win if given enough time.
“Why prove a man he is wrong? You can’t win an argument, because if you lose, you lose it; and if you win, you lose it.
You will feel fine. But what about him? You have made him feel inferior, you hurt his pride, insult his intelligence, his judgement, and his self-respect.”

And what is more, we may have put a chink in the armor and bubble of someone’s reality, a reality they depend upon to feel good about the world they have created and feel safe within. This is why WE ALL resist change, fight back, insult or challenge family and friends who only mean well. It is so often difficult to save us from a firmly entrenched reality, because our sanity depends on defending that reality, our job and income depends on that created reality, our pride, judgement and everything we know that is comfortable in our world, is based on that false fragile reality.
So, in all seriousness, what if it was all a lie ? The reality we were all taught was a lie, the science, the physics, the medicine, the laws, the politics, the religion, the psychology, what if they were all lies ? To me, and for many, for a long time, something has smelled bad. I believe we are about to find out what stinks and find out that much of everything was a lie. The good thing is, that if so, truth will shine through, and we can start fresh. New beginnings are always good, often hard, but good. The truth never stinks, but it often stings.
Look up, deep into the day and night skies, it is not what it seems, well, it is actually, - it is just not what we were taught.
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
Even if you stand far down wind, if you stand long enough, you can smell the rot a mile away. You just have to pay attention and think logically.
That is where many have failed. Because,. . . . . . . . . . . . it was all lies.
“Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.”
Hamlet (1.4), Marcellus to HoratioSpoken by Marcellus in Shakespeare’s Hamlet. this is one of the most broadly used quotes in history, and it serves us well now it seems.
Shortly before midnight, Hamlet meets Horatio on the battlements of the castle. They wait together in the darkness. From below they hear the sound of the men in the castle laughing and dancing riotously; the King draining his "draughts of Rhenish down" (10). Hamlet explains to Horatio his dislike of such behaviour. To Hamlet, drinking to excess has ruined the whole nation, which is known abroad as a land full of drunken swine.
Horatio spots the Ghost of Hamlet's father approaching. Hamlet calls out to the Ghost and it beckons Hamlet to leave with it. Despite the pleadings of Horatio and Marcellus, who are afraid that the apparition might be an evil entity in disguise, Hamlet agrees to follow the Ghost and the two figures disappear into the dark.
Marcellus, shaken by the many recent disturbing events and no doubt angered (as is Hamlet) by Claudius's mismanagement of the body politic, astutely notes that Denmark is festering with moral and political corruption. Horatio replies "Heaven will direct it" (91), meaning heaven will guide the state of Denmark to health and stability.
