I call it the “Green Volvo Syndrome”. Say you buy a green Volvo. All of a sudden, you notice all the other green Volvos that you never really noticed before. Simply put, our eyes cannot see what our brain does not understand. Once you learn the corruption exists, it is much easier to recognize the corruption. As a Bible believer and amateur scholar, I know that God gives us “eyes that see” and “ ears that hear”. Of course this is on a deeper level that the green Volvo. Suffice to say, “ The Knowing is knowing you know.

The official term is the Baader–Meinhof phenomenon or frequency bias. Once you see something, you become aware of seeing it again. Your term is more Normie friendly though. I hope you will forgive me if I make use of it from time to time.

Personally I believe that the Divine gives us the *option* to see and hear, it is up to us to develop our awareness by choosing to confront the illusions around us.

Think of the "almost stories" that could have gotten out. Comet Ping Pong Pizza. Seth Rich. The men caught with vials of CV19 in Boston and Seattle. Assange. The list of ALL the people who travelled to Epstein island.

Every one was covered by an intricate obfuscation back story.

They say millions of kids go missing each year. Eight hundred thousand in America alone. Where do they go? Are they all dead? They say underground tunnels & cities are filled with biolab experiments against humans & off-world there’s slave trading of humans. The reports are very bad. Why is all this allowed? Our military knows about it. Are all these things being stopped now because of the awakening? Or Are we constantly gaslighted? How can anything aliens say be trusted? We are in a spiritual war & only God is true & trustworthy. No one else. If half of what they say is true, it’s still far beyond reasonable. It’s unforgivable.

Not too long ago I had a conversation with 5 work acquaintances along these lines. I made mention that there are a lot of kids that go missing each year in our country, raising eyebrows when i quoted the number. Disbelief, till I showed them the stats on my tablet. Then amazement, then rejection as they said those stats had to be wrong, most were likely runaways that eventually come back home, etc.

So I showed them more stats that separated returned runaways and reporting errors. Since all of them were fathers (I'm the lone weirdo who doesn't have kids or watch sports) they got more interested and started asking questions.

To keep this brief-it ended with me not being able to give them comforting answers, but left them with a list of very disturbing questions to look into. Only 1 of them really dug into those questions, and the only support he found to push back at what he uncovered was from his local church.

A while back he came to me with good news, his congregation had come together on things and had become more active on several levels. He wanted advice on how they could become stronger in protecting their children and dealing with crime. I introduced him to a good Muslim friend of mine who had done the same with his own community. Long story short, they're good friends now and have firm allies in the other's community.

Maybe they're releasing it a little at a time, or we'd be overwhelmed. We'd be likely to scoff it off as too absurd to even contemplate. I mean, even with all the rumors swirling about the Clintons, back in the early 90s, did anyone actually believe they were responsible for all those people being "arkansided"? Sure, we knew they were shady, but killing people? I remember seeing that list and being amazed at all the coincidences, but did I really think they could be responsible? No, I didn't. Do I now? Hell, yes. And they've let us see a lot more, which I readily believe, bc I was primed for it. Do I believe most of the politicians in our government are child molesters? Yes, I do. Do I believe they perform human sacrifices? Maybe, but it's only a matter of time, before I allow myself to accept that truth.

Good article Erik!

It shows the trick the deep state uses of "look over here" and "not over there."

Everything that can be used to garner attention instead of take down the deep state is "leaked" out to absorb the attention of the masses. While the real issues are kept under wraps because that is what the deep state loves to indulge in.

It is my hope that this article really opens peoples eyes!

Totally agree. If we want to know the whole truth, we need to focus on what is being censored or labeled as a "conspiracy theory." That's where we'll find it, along with a lot of garbage that isn't true, either. I long for the day when truth is easy to find and hard to ignore.

GMoney said something that gripped me. "Not everyone cares about children being tortured. Everyone cares about their money." He is right. I doubt the whole truth about children would unite everyone, but our monetary system crashing? Dollars become worthless? That will unite us.

I find myself eagerly awaiting the next bank crash. And then the next. Because as long as the cabal controls our money, they control the courts, the police, the military, the media, our jobs, our food, everything.

When the Fiat currency fully collapses, and we can no longer feed our families, people will begin to wake up at an alarming rate. Sadly, money is what will bring us together.

I think your correct. Little babies being aborted is demonic sacrifice. Pedophilia sex with little kids is the most reprehensible act an adult can do. To literally shake the normies awake Adrenochrome is a Bomb 💣 that is a good start. Any adult of sound mind if understanding that they were lab rats being tested all the while

Very well written and most certainly thought provoking. I have not finished reading all the comments yet, however, the ones I have read, I agree with across the board. Recently I have seen or read a couple of things that simply makes me pray even more, one is that the state of Minnesota is wanting to "normalize" pedophilia which boggles my mind wondering what has happened in that state that harming children would be considered acceptable let alone protected! The second thing is the recent "satanic" celebration held in Boston complete with Bible destruction. I could add the state of Washington among others that are now considered safe haven for child gender harm procedures as well. Nonetheless after reading and rereading this well thought out and researched article, I applaud all who take the time to dig deeper as they say. I did know about atrocities committed by the Japanese well before the "official" start of WW2 especially those done in Manchuria and then China. I did not, however, know about Unit 731 and am not surprised on what was done in the name of science. There are fictional books I've read as well as a few shows I've watched wherein the "bad guys" are up to no good doing experiments on people all for evil. I recall one show's episode where the heroes come across a secret lab deep in the Himalayas where experiments were done in the 50's on children, hoping to create a bioweapon similar to the 2020 virus. Fiction? Hmm, after reading Mr. Carlson's writing here, it seems most fiction which we think is unfathomable and unbelievable is based on the truth from way back!

I wholeheartedly agree with the comment(s) from M.Phillip posted below, "If half of what they say is true, it’s still far beyond reasonable. It’s unforgivable.

Thank you Eric Carlson and all the other writers on Badlands for exposing the darkness. We stand in the Light and know full well, darkness cannot stand the Light of truth. Well done, indeed!

In my opinion we’re dealing with extraterrestrials who lived on several planets before the creation of mankind who want a prior reality to return & they want us to fund their dream. Everything about the Star Wars multi planet stuff is rather demonic in that it shows a continual problem with evil vs good. God’s plan is to remove all evil at a final judgment so the extraterrestrials can’t treat us as slaves and murder us or use us as food. The only answer is to reject all costly off world activity. None of it is to benefit humanity. None. It’s all gaslighting for the fallen ones who are all liars.

At first I was thinking 'here we go, another Neil' he's a guy who LOVES the aliens sight unseen. He expects them to give him a life of no work, just sit back and have everything done for him. Sorry that's too much for me to swallow. Now your take makes a whole lot more sense! Ever see "To Serve Man." I think it was in twilight zone. Same thing as you are saying gaslighting and the to serve man book was really a cookbook. I'd love to put this on Pro America Only.org about everyone would agree with you.

Many new age people are in love with extraterrestrial beings & naively believe they’re all good. Some of them are even channeling them which is demonic. They’re being lied to & used.

Maybe Neil’s in that group. Most normal people seem to have some sense.

It’s clear things aren’t good & never have been good for humanity. The devil never comes along & tells the truth about himself. He says he’s our friend & he’s helping. What’s the big secret in Antarctic & why did nazi’s go there? Is it the devil’s base on earth? Leaders used to go there for directions/all evil leaders who are criminals. Something much bigger is going on & the children have been the victims. It’s not right. The book of Enoch, scripture & some ancient text speak about the fallen angels being left here & they are very evil. They have greatly advanced technology. They are against God & they murder us.

I think the antarctic might be. Before I realized the Marvel comics/movies were woke I used to watch them and the Nazis were based there. You'd be surprised, most normal people stun me.

The question that comes to my mind is, if [their] pedophilia is something that could take them down, what is it about that pedophilia that is so important to them to risk their entire existence?

Any insights? Perhaps it is because I'm not and never have been a pedophile, nor had the least interest in becoming so inclined, but it just does not make sense to me that any group as powerful as the Cabal would risk everything in this way.

Bill, if you go back and research the Cabal you will find that their religion used to worship a 'god' called Ba'al. This 'god' loved the smell of baby fat burning. It was an aphrodisiac to their kind. And he demanded Child Sacrifices regularly. It's interesting, there is mention of this same 'god' in the Old Testament of the bible. Not in the translations that you get from your Churches though, those have all be tweaked to control the Narrative. But there is a man who has translated the oldest Hebrew of the original Old Testament for both the Vatican and the Jewish Council. His name is Mauro Biglino. A few years back he decided to start telling the truth about what the bible really says,....and he lost his job because of that. But I recommend it. It's called 'The Naked Bible: The Truth about the most famous Book in History". It's an interview of him and what he has found in this famous book. It's very interesting.

Apparently it was, before it was turned into The Bible that 3 religions were based on, a simple History book of 12 Tribes and their brutal Overlord. Somewhere back 2000 years ago, the same crime families that we are fighting today took that History book and changed it. They turned it into a book that would gather the pagan tribes together under one Religion and one Master. They needed ARMIES and they needed them to fight for them, and a group gathering Religion worked very well. (Crusades etc.) They added all kind of mystical things, like gods and angels and red seas. But if you read the very first copy, they aren't in there.

The book is on Amazon Kindle for $10 if you don't want to buy the actual book,....it's well worth looking at,....you will see a whole different world from what we've been told for 2000 years. This Cabal of elite have been working on this plan to total domination of the planet for a very, very long time. Here is a great bunch of video's too, that go into the History of the Cabal.

It's a series, of many short videos that start at the very beginning of the Cabal's story and follow them until today. Here is a link. https://www.bitchute.com/video/BRizDPuLs8c4/

I am aware of quite a bit of the old history of the Cabal: Ba'al, Moloch, Enoch etc. A good substack on this subject is here, for anyone who hasn't seen it:

I believe it too, because of the evidence that can be discerned through careful observation, some my own but much by others whom I respect. And it must be multinational, because [they] are everywhere. I wrote this on a Burning Bright substack 'Restore' back on April 30:

"Amongst the various rabbit-holes down which I have ventured in the past couple years, one was related to the history of the group we call the White Hats or Patriots.

My conclusion after reading a number of articles is that this group began shortly after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy as a reaction against the US CIA/MIC responsible for the assassination.

The group originally comprised about 200 command officers of the US Military, generals and admirals. Over the intervening 60 years, it has grown to nearly 1000 and come to include officers from many other nations, some of which might surprise you (because whenever the MSM talks about them, they are 'enemies').

This group has been working on plans to 'break the back' of the international cabal that has been controlling most of the world's nations and banks, and responsible for pretty much every war since the 19th century. They selected and groomed Trump to be the 'face of the nation' during key parts of this operation. Trump was selected for his intelligence, his integrity, his loyalty, and his courage -- exactly the qualities any command officer looks for in a leader of a key part of an operation. The fact that Trump is a street-fighter and a well-known celebrity certainly did not hurt.

Trump coming down that escalator in 2015 was something that was a long time in the making. That was the opening act in the penultimate (next to last) chapter of the White Hat operation. The final chapter has yet to play out, but Trump's return ('The Return of the King,' for the LOTR fans out there) is a key part of it, or so I believe.

The war in Ukraine is the Cabal's last stand. [They] hoped to actualize WW3 between Russia and the USA, their two greatest enemies, on the land of Ukraine where their ancestors were largely annihilated ca. AD 1200. But, because of Devolution/COG, they are not able to get the US Mil to start this war, because the White Hats actually control most of the military, especially Space Force, Special Operations and importantly the launch codes for the US nuclear forces. And the Russians will not start it.

So that is where we are today. Russia is the vanguard in this operation (read BB's 'Righteous Russia' series for much more detail), the only reason Ukraine fights on in what is an obviously losing effort is that their Cabal handlers won't let them give up and settle the war. Ukraine is [their] last stand. If (i.e., when) they lose there it is all over for them. The White Hats know all of this, in fact had much of it planned at least in general terms. The White Hats have forced [their] hand, and [they] are losing. They know it, but there is nothing they can do to change the outcome. The only question is how long this goes on, and how many more innocent Ukrainians and Russians have to die before it ends."

And I agree with you, even once the key battles are won, cleaning up the mess will take some time. But once people begin to experience true freedom, the enthusiasm will be so contagious that I'm not sure it will be decades. We won't know of course until it happens.
