But it is a dispiriting feature of 9/11 Truth and similar movements that they devour themselves sometimes with in-fighting and factionalism. When I look back at this period I don't think I will greatly care whether Greenwald turned out to be a phoney. I will remember what he revealed. If 5% of it is true it would appear we are living in a world in which all the cliches of a B-movie sci-fi dystopia have come true. What a depressing thought. Even more depressing, I really don't know what can be done about it. Does anyone?
I couldn't agree more, Malcolm. The regular in-fighting, the bursts of ego swaggering, blood letting and ritual seppuku of our community drives me to despair on a fairly regular basis. As I keep saying, the powers that be don't really need to worry about this community, as we'll assassinate each other for them.
All I can say is that, eventually, the tide will turn and then reverse. It always does. Night changes to day, winter to summer etc. But I agree it looks pretty bleak at the present.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
