The media is increasingly (& irresponsibly) covering vaccine polarization, portraying people as either pro-vaxx or anti-vaxx... neglecting the entire nuanced range of perspectives in between.
Sure, both of those factions exist. Vax lovers & vax haters are incredibly vocal; expressing equal amounts of premature certainty, waging very public strawman arguments & ad hom attacks against one another.
These interactions dominate our social feeds, increasing our cortisol levels & manufacturing feelings of hopelessness. Leading us to believe that we either forfeit our questions & subscribe to one of the extreme tribes, or we accept our fate as pandemic orphans & continue our solo efforts to make sense of it all.
Interestingly, actual people are telling a different story. A story of a silent majority without a voice, without a leader to advocate on their behalf. A story of sovereignty, unity, empathy & curiosity. A story that is being ignored, along with unprecedented displays of solidarity across the globe, in favor of polarization, fear, compromised data & propaganda.
You don't divide people to lead them, you divide them to rule them.
The supply-side of information is organized & riddled with agenda. The demand side is fractured & we are being misled.
Don’t fall for it. Don’t believe the hype.
2/3 of Americans say they cannot express their beliefs for fear of offending others; but as the mania peaks, more of the silent majority are beginning to speak.
Humans are deeply connected on a cellular level. It’s not a choice; it’s our quantum truth.
We don’t abandon our kind. History has been dominated by the consequences of asymmetrical power & the agendas of a few.
This is our time. Our beautiful & unique opportunity to unite over our values, claim our sovereignty, & curate an accountable, transparent, & reliable information ecology with which to inform our collective decisions. This is our time to create a world that people don't want to leave.
We can do it #teamhuman, but we've got to connect with one another like never before. You cannot solve a problem with the same level of consciousness that created it.
A population, united by their values, cannot be ruled or deceived. Let's pledge our allegiance to humanity & course correct toward the infinite game. Game B. Let’s go.
