Articulation of truth has its own power.
That power is significant in the context of the global war that is underway.
Homo Sapiens are biological programs. Their intelligence, for what it is, involves an energy system that processes or fails to process inputs in its own way, within the biological and genetic limitations of the species.
Confirmation bias is a limitation of the species caused by genetic engineering and manipulation.
Generally, homo sapiens follow the rules of their social contracts, or at least attempt to be seen to be following those rules insofar as they understand and perceive them. Unfortunately, given the idiosyncrasies of the species, they are often perceptually blind to what is contrary to their social or economic interests to see.
This affords certain elements within the species a form of dumb innocence. Certain more enlightened species, who do not fail to see what the less enlightened see, are corrupt and exploit this dumb innocence.
More often than not, political, social, and religious leadership becomes overwhelmed with infiltration by such corrupt forces.
Their power is maintained by perpetuating, promoting, encouraging, and contributing to the very ignorance and blindness that enables them.
Generally, these corrupt beings do not seek truth, harmony, peace or justice, for the sake of the same, but rather seek first their own limited and short sighted self interests at the expense of truth, harmony, peace, and justice as long as they can get away with doing so with plausible deniability.
Plausible deniability is required because their reign of greed and exploitation cannot be sustained without the assistance of lesser worker bee beings whose loyalty and devotion to their service is, at least in part, rooted in a belief that they are acting in accordance with a sustainable social contract that does not defy the order of the universe or unduly oppress their fellow beings without justification.
The intellectual processing inferiority (limitations) of the lesser beings is such that they are blinded by confirmation bias when self interest requires it, but not completely or permanently blind. They don't see what they don't want to see, until it is presented to them in a way that they cannot avoid. Generally, this is achievable in degrees, for most of the lesser beings. They do see what is laid out for them in a way they can understand and in a non threatening context that affords them the ability to relax their intellectual resistance to truths that are not convenient.
Corrupt exploitive social "leaders" fear that their own staffs will become so enlightened, because their reign of exploitation requires the devotion of their staffs.
The right articulation strikes at the heart of the staff of the exploitive corrupt leaders. This is the Achilles heal of corrupt exploitive leaders. They will often yield to an argument of justice if it is unavoidably clear to their subordinate staff.
For this reason, artificial intelligence, mind control, and robotics have become the hot pursuits of the exploitive corrupt leaders. They mean to replace staff that can be enlightened with staff that either can't or won't be enlightened, whether by robotics, or artificial intelligences that they can manipulate and control to their own advantage. Also, they are developing (have developed) the technology to seize control of the human mind and manipulate its perceptions with external energy pulses. This they intend to use, not for justice or the common good, but to eliminate the resistance to their power and control that arises from awareness and enlightenment.
