Breaking News: The Verdict Doesn’t Matter!
I don't care... and neither should You
Yesterday, Trump was convicted in the current case he is in. I don’t know much about the details, but between yesterday and today, this has been the number one topic floating through the zeitgeist. I’ve had three different stacks lead with this story this morning alone.
The first thought that comes to mind is, “Why do I care about this?” But then you realize there’s a reason for stories like this, and these are just the first two things that come to mind.
This Story Sucks Your Attention.
I’ve already written about the Four Reasons Not To Watch The News, and the biggest takeaway is that the news reports on stories and events that have little to no bearing on your actual life. Instead of worrying about what you have to do, where you have to go, and your surrounding bodies, your attention is taken away to a vast land far, far away — that you have no control over. Whether it’s Israel or Ukraine, the News’s goal is to suck your attention and take it far, far away.
This whisking away of your body and mind is what we’re seeing now with this Trump case. Let’s face it: he will still run for president, and this will be the story told, as
mentioned in his article. “Convicted felon for President!” But, again, there is nothing we can or should do about this.I just released a podcast yesterday about:
our brains,
how we think, and
how we need to be aware of our brain’s different thoughts and states throughout the day.
I would argue that knowing how to improve our thinking and how the devices place us in a trance state mode of thinking is more important and vital to your day and life, but instead, the News says, “Let’s talk about Donald Trump instead.”
This Is All A Narrative
As William mentioned in his article, we might have a convicted felon as a presidential candidate. If you’ve read my article on why we need to stop voting, you realize that voting is more of a ritualistic practice than anything. Millions “cast” their votes as if they were “casting” spells; there’s so much more to this practice than the average man knows.
That being said, the narrative that is going to be spun is going to be outlandish. From a dementia-ill patient to a conspiracy theorist to a convicted felon, this is going to be a story-filled election for the years. Here is where I want to bring to your attention the power of narratives and how they play a vital role in shaping world events in the future.
2024 is only six years from 2030, but instead of worrying about the narrative that is being spun at the global elite level, maybe we should worry about how we’re getting ourselves ready with our seven pillars of life — and how this lines up against the invisible timeline they’re plotting towards.
To conclude, this is what the News does. This mass-wide trace is their goal:
one, to grasp the public’s attention so the public doesn’t pay attention to their daily lives, and
two, to create historical pieces with narratives and stories.
Maybe a convicted felon in Trump leads to the invasion and destabilization of America from within, or maybe Biden must win so we don’t have a convicted felon in the White House—while the demoralization of America continues.
Either or, I don’t know, and I don’t care. All I know is I have to go to work in the morning; I’ve got to plan for my family and friends. Plus, I have to work on my vision for my future, such as my life, where I want to live, and so forth. Nowhere in there does Donald Trump come into play, and hence why I make the argument that I don’t care — and I’d argue that neither should you.

There was a great turnout on your article the other day Franklin, well done my friend.
I couldn’t care less about trump’s verdict. Either way, we’re getting played by both sides of the political aisle. The real people in power have much more sinister plans for us in the future
