Disinformation vs. Actionable Intellegence
I like your summation. You are human and you exhort us to live to our full human potential. Question everything everyone and all sources. I am always disappointed if someone takes what I say at face value. I like to preface it with- I am researching and learning and what I am telling you now may not add up. Let’s work together to seek, find and apply TRUTH in action steps.
These are conversations we have with trusted allies- plus we have lots of cocktail party conversation fodder as well.
I made a small sign I have taped to my computer monitor- “We must keep coherence.” Thanks to you mentioning that- it inspires me each day to think and to do the things in the world that lead to more truth, more love and to “self care while caring for others”. -
The trouble with identifying disinfo, is it is usually wrapped around kernels of truth. And, at least for me, my experience and what I would have called expertise two years ago, is wholly inadequate. My confidence in figuring things out is shaken. I am way out of my depth in economic matters and have erred on the side of being cautiously conservative with where I parked my investments. And then I learn BlackRock manages the TSP… which was never disclosed as far as I know. I’m alarmed by both the potential loss of those funds or them being used against us if I leave them there and being unable to extract them without an outrageous penalty that still aids those who continue to build the control grid. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. I have only a couple family members who will even entertain discussion about how bad things may be and what we should change and do differently is elusive -except for holding and living into out values. No one from work or my neighborhood is open to discuss… have been largely isolated working from home for 2+ years. I know for certain I am reliant on other experts for determining how to map my course. How do I vet them, and even you as well, without sifting through the disinfo as well? How can we collaborate on vetting, reliable sources, and actionable intelligence? I have more questions than answers, but maybe I have puzzle pieces others may need? How would I contribute them? Maybe we could post our key intelligence questions and try to answer those where we have experience or expertise??

Maybe we need a Ray Dalio style “dot collector” on smaller subjects and on individuals that we can vote on?

I haven’t missed a Money & Markets since the beginning. The most valuable #1 lesson is “follow the $” along with vetting. Listening to all your material and partners like Dr. Farrell and Jon Rappaport saved my life since I lost everything (homes, investments, health etc.) to deep state tactics and divorce fraud in 2000. When your ex is the CEO of a company that provided software security to the White House and all federal departments but served by the SDNY a year prior for illegally running a fraudulent “cabal” relative to an IPO your reality is shattered. Being a successful businesswoman and good Catholic girl from Buffalo I’m glad I am alive, happily remarried over 20 years now living back home in Western NY which is as far away from technocracy as I could get. Your advice helped me make that move after 34 years in Mill Valley, CA in 2018. I also believe your focus on culture, nature and reconnecting with spirituality helped me. I answer to God, the divine. Solari is like a university you can trust. I know you are humble but you and your team haven’t been wrong once. Thanks.

High praise from you, Sandra. Thank you very much. There is so much intelligence in this network – we can steadily and slowly help each other create the power and endurance to turtle through this. Never know what is possible until you try.

What comes to my mind is something along the lines of your unanswered questions, a topic that you regularly come back to in the wrap-ups. (By the way, the fact that you talked about what isn’t answered is something that endeared me to your work because no one has all the answers.)
So maybe a list of disinformation that is currently going. Or perhaps a deeper breakdown of the examples you gave here, and specifically what red flags you saw in them that told you they were disinformation. Teaching people how to be better at spotting as such, because it is not always easy.

Very good suggestions. Will think about how to do this.

where are the asian elders when you need them!!
two other forms of disinfo are the survivalist consumer and the secret potion / diet / ingredient to solve an ailment / condition etc.
both unhealthy extremes of important topics.
survivalist consumerism turns disaster prep into a lifestyle full of the next thing to buy.
x is the next miracle food / pill / diet turns good food + nutrition into a novelty. this new herb from amazon works miracles. this diet, this food combo, this pill / powder etc.
both can be marketing by someone with a product to sell. the products are different but prey on the same basic instincts of people as the other scams － insecurity / fear and the desire for a simple solution to a complex problen.

Thank you for pointing out the survivalist meme. Buying food prep buckets was suggested to me with the-end-is-coming mindset. I do not care the focus of that way of seeing the world; it takes you away from the true issues of life. I almost did buy the product but realized I’ve developed my relations with the local farming community where I buy all my food. So that’s my fall back.
