Campaign: Amnesty*?

Further to the Déjà Vu -Times II post of October 2, 2022: Should We Forget?**

Has anyone noticed the increasing frequency of:

• “We didn't know.”
• “We were learning by experience in a crisis and made mistakes.”
• “We made the best decisions / judgments we could at the time”?
• “We had the best intentions.”

Not exactly a plea for forgiveness, but more an appeal to not hold “inexperience” against the authorities / experts; to not dwell on past actions or current data; to just move on without memory. But here is one man's take on the “amnesty” idea (begin at minute 1:30):

The COVID Tyrants Want Forgiveness. They Should Get ... | Ep. 1053

oops, sorry! (Paul Joseph Watson | Nov 1, 2022 | Time 9:13 min.) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmFY2PB-1xM]

So, the question: Do we pretend all this never happened?

• police brutality
• threats and coercion
• lies and gas-lighting
• hostile rhetoric and targeting
• fear-mongering
• unethical human experimentation
• massive human rights violations
• censorship
• cancelling licenses to practice
• massive profiteering by Pharma and insider big-corps
• long-term costs in lives, livelihoods, mental & physical health
• irreparable education and career disruptions
• COVID and vaxx blame-shifting and data corruption
• elite infractions of their own mandates
• and on and on

Are we to forget while most of the above are still being practiced and pushed in various ways — even as the “amnesty ” narrative is surfacing?

Did the powers and authorities really not know what they were doing? Or was this just one more tech-driven trial-run to bring about the WO that has been the dream of narcissistic / psychopathic powers for generations? Both the science and history of power-abuse plus the prolific evidence of the past two plus years, should leave us in no doubt. “Amnesty” is just the latest fraud in the relentless pursuit of WO.

Amnesty is amnesia and the world has already suffered too much of that. Perhaps after trials and convictions, we can be asked about individual forgiveness. As it stands, we have no right to forgive on behalf of or as assumed proxy for others.

Let the trials begin.

Added November 9, 2022: When all the facts and deceptions are revealed following investigation and trial, then each individual will have a choice to forgive or not the injuries or harms they individually suffered, but to forget as a society or to not pursue truth is to invite egregious repetition. JPSears has, perhaps, said it best thus far:

*Although this is the usual definition:

Amnesty (from the Ancient Greek ἀμνηστία, amnestia, "forgetfulness, passing over") is defined as "A pardon extended by the government to a group or class of people, usually for a political offense; the act of a sovereign power officially forgiving certain classes of people who are subject to trial but have not yet been convicted."[1] Though the term general pardon has a similar definition,[2] an amnesty constitutes more than a pardon, in so much as it obliterates all legal remembrance of the offense.[3] Amnesty is increasingly used to express the idea of "freedom" and to refer to when prisoners can go free. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amnesty

Amnesty is now being used to suggest that people who were injured by the acts of government or government p-p partners, agents, or devotees should agree to forego trial and / or conviction for offences and injuries; in essence, to “obliterate all legal remembrance of the offense.”

Revolving Accounts

"The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us." (Old Testament Ecclesiastes 1:9-10)

"Dwell in the past and you'll lose an eye. Forget the past and you'll lose both eyes." (Old Russian Proverb)

“No Comments” Rationale

1) Time & more needful priorities;
2) Problems observed with many open-comment blogs as so bluntly expressed at http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/comment-policy/
3) People are free to post divergent or convergent views on their own blogs;
4) Learning from comments here would be preferable, but— (see 1, 2, & 3).

Brief note to the OFFENDED: Just because allowing "comments" is a blogger's option, it does not mean every blogger must conform to the "expectations" of others. Every soul can consult the Spirit and decide what is best and right in their circumstance. And if one has a blanket policy not to read another's work because there is no opportunity to comment, it seems one has closed oneself off to potential guidance of the Spirit. Besides, in this world of "overwhelm," the guidance of the Spirit is the best resource we have to lead us to things of importance in our unique life. So, if you have found your way here, perhaps there are a few things of import for you here. I try to trust the Spirit to lead me likewise to things of import within my purpose and priorities.

My World / TransWorld View

▪ Truth is knowledge of things as they are, and as they were, and as they are to come; (Doctrine and Covenants Section 93:24)
▪ If we have the truth, it cannot be harmed by investigation. If we have not the truth, it ought to be harmed. (J. Reuben Clark)

▪ Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. (New Testament 1 Thessalonians 5:21)

▪ No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.(New Testament Matthew 6:24; Luke 16:13; 3 Nephi 13:24)
▪ See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.(New Testament 1 Thessalonians 5:15)
▪ For that which ye do send out shall return unto you again, and be restored; ... (Book of Mormon Alma 41:15)
▪ Believe in God; believe that he is, and that he created all things, both in heaven and in earth; believe that he has all wisdom, and all power, both in heaven and in earth; believe that man doth not comprehend all the things which the Lord can comprehend. (Book of Mormon Mosiah 4:9, emphasis added)
▪ ... the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. (New Testament 1 Corinthians 1:25)
▪ For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. (Old Testament Isaiah 55:8 - 9)
▪ ... the Lord doth grant unto all nations, of their own nation and tongue, to teach his word, yea, in wisdom, all that he seeth fit that they should have; therefore we see that the Lord doth counsel in wisdom, according to that which is just and true. (Book of Mormon Alma 29:8)
▪ The Bible is true, as far as it is translated correctly. Some things are to be understood literally; others metaphorically or symbolically.
▪ God is neither a Republican nor a Democrat; a Liberal nor a Conservative, just as Christ was neither a Pharisee or Sadducee. [For God doth not walk in crooked paths, neither doth he turn to the right hand nor to the left, neither doth he vary from that which he hath said, therefore his paths are straight, and his course is one eternal round.(Doctrine and Covenants Section 3:2)]
▪ Life is an escalating series of tests.
▪ “...we will be asked again and again to release the parts of our lives that mean the most to us.” (Caroline Myss, Sacred Contracts, p. 76; also preview lives of the prophets and saints.)
