    I don’t say this to brag, but I’ve been at level 5 since probably ~1997. It’s been incredibly lonely , isolating & frustrating for me. It’s nice that more people are starting to get it, but still frustrating because I get no extra respect for being further down the rabbit hole with maybe some wisdom to impart. No matter how far down the rabbit hole you go, the people behind you will never believe you in real-time, only a decade later when they catch up, at which point, they forgot you told them a decade ago. It’s a lonely life.

    Level 6 is Julian Assange; when you reveal the mechanisms of the machine so it tries to kill you for it.
    Level 7 is when what you know threatens to destroy the machine, and then you wind up dead.

    Also, a large part of this is psychological. The whole trick with this THING is that people have been emotionally manipulated into having feelings on issues, their political stances have been enmeshed with their sense of identity, and that's why they're so intractable - changing their views is too damaging to their psychological well-being.
    Only lived experience can make these people realize/feel that their beliefs are incorrect. No amount of facts, reason, logic, or evidence will change their minds, because this is psychological/emotional. And this is all be design.

    I've had this understanding since somewhere around the 1990s when I started really following the news.
    I've just called it
    lvl1 - You believe the news
    lvl2 - You are tribal about politics
    lvl3 - You understand everyone is lying to you
    lvl4 - You understand that it's just a bunch of rich people playing political warfare and we're just the pawns. Game Of Thrones.

    The trait that Scott is referring to is wisdom (ie that corresponds to how far along on their “journey” the person is). He mentions that some people at level one are very intelligent. I’m sure this is true. But they are unwise/foolish. Intelligence multiplied by wisdom can reasonably be referred to (see John Vervaeke’s work and extrapolate from there) as rationality. In other words, there are plenty of intelligent people at level 1. But there are zero rational people at level 1. Respect (and surround yourself with) rationality (ie high IQ/standardized test scores combined with the capacity to not be deceived), not intelligence.

I knew that Dilbert should have been the FIRST comic on the SF Chronicle's Sunday Funnies Page instead of Doonsebury by Gary Trudeau. Im also at a level to know that Doonebury is NOT that sophisticated as a political cartoon as those that used to be found on or IN the "Editorials" page of damn near ANY newspaper.
    Vietnam is over now Mr Trudeau, and Note to SF Chronicle: Charles Shultz is dead, may at least put CANDORVILLE as the first comic (If not "Pearls Before Swine") Heck....Bring back "Cathy" for THAT matter???🙄 Beetle Baily??🙄🙄
