Manipulation

Of the above, the manipulatable one is the most pertinent to our story.

 

There are periods in history, long-ones, where: whoppers told by those with the cultural clout to make them come true … came true … !

 

Cultural Influencers succeeded in track-jumping Reality onto a non-Truth,  alternative universe.

 

That raises some questions - if Culture can exert mass influence on its human components to create a fake reality, are we living in a Lie-averse, an Unreality

What happens to the real Reality/Time/Future - that was hi-jacked? 

 

Does that still exist?   In some parallel mode?  Can we re-connect?

In the culture/time equation,  the idea that progression=enlightenment …  it's not like that.  Yes Time can travel towards the light, but also sideways, backwards, into darkness …  It’s not a fixed-deal … well it isn’t, until it is.

 

Fixing the deal in a random world is the goal.  It's in our DNA to do that.  The more you fix it the better.  Moreover, it’s a War - against whoever you project to be a threat.  If you control the Cultural Image of reality,  you control everything, including Time, whatever that means …

 

Therein lies Culture's time-travelling trick, Orwell puts it best in 1984 (written 1948):

 

Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past

Jesus Culture is a good example of how that works - at scale -
