Having the same thoughts and opinions as the majority locks you into some sort of mental pattern where you can’t deviate. You become locked like an npc, but it also becomes easy to route around you.

Or perhaps the majority opinion is held by the majority because that's the way most peoples' brains work, and we're generic sports that Nature allows for, to give humanity a way out of mental traps.
Like the prophets of old.
I personally don’t like to conceptualize myself as special in any way. Probably an American thing. We all want to view ourselves as self made people who pulled ourselves up from the earth and carved ourselves out of clay.
That said you may be right and it’s possible that neurotypical people are actually just incapable of changing the world or even their immediate environment.
Nah, you ain't special. Funny AF at times though. Merry Xmas A.Hodl. :P
They have other talents. It's not as if prophecy is always a pleasant occupation. Arguably the worst, of the talents.
Think of Jonah, who preferred to risk drowning, than tell people things they didn't want to hear. Remember what Christ said, about the thankless job of being a prophet.
Prophecy , though I’ve never made it an occupation could have easily been my way.
But as one, I knew the future of the #USA & let’s be honest … #Christians fight enough amongst theirselves , as if they haven’t continued to kill humanity too.
The danger of refusing the label of "specialness", exceptionality, or being set apart by Providence, is that you are still left to explain the chronic dichotomy, and you will tend to accuse everyone else of simply being inferior and to rage at them to become more like yourself, even though they might not be able to.
God made you the way you are because He thought you would be useful for Himself and to others, by being that way. Humility is not found in denying this, but in acknowledging that it comes from Him and that it is meant to serve some purpose.
If you are a prophet, what purpose does your prophecy serve? Have you done all you can, to warn others? I think, we can never have done all we could do, and that is the misery and the tragedy of the prophet. Prophets perpetually grieve.
I think I believe this to be true, but for some reason still find myself resistant to the idea of thinking I am special or unique in some way. Maybe it’s cultural conditioning. Maybe I just think I’m still not living up to my full potential and so don’t deserve the classification. 🤷🏻♂️
I have a rich friend who always says things like this to me. “You’re special, you were anointed” etc… and I always recoil at it. Feels smugly congratulatory or something. Like if I believe it I immediately lose my edge.
Well, Jesus was very special and they nailed him to a cross for it, so your mileage may vary.
It's possible that you're subconsciously afraid of the terrible fate that oftens awaits the anointed. I also fear it, but I am doomed to prophecy.
Probably so. I do have and always have had an overwhelming sense that my life is building to something large. Not sure what, but I have an internal sense that it’s about 20 years away still. Right now I’m sort of wandering the desert. In my case both literally and figuratively lol 😂
None of us are seperate from the all that is. At our highest level, we are all God. When you feel that power & play with it, you can experience feelings of being special. You've remembered who you are but everyone else seems to have forgotten or not yet remembered.
I'm convinced this feeling causes a great deal of confusion for many. They become unable to function, to walk unnoticed among the cardboard cutouts. The people around them get worried for their & others safety. Many end up in mental institutions which do nothing for their confusion.
Yes you are special. You've remembered who you really are. You are One with everything & not seperate. It is everyone's destiny to awaken & remember/rediscover this. Your job is to know & to feel you are God without seperating yourself from that oneness. To experience the pain & joy of forgetting & rediscovering. To hold the frequency of light & love.

To change your mind—to learn—requires a willingness to venture into the unknown. The unknown is where all the monsters and dragons live, which is why most avoid it, but the hero knows that behind the dragon there is treasure (knowledge).
Important to remember that you can still be a normie in a subset of humanity that is non-normie… I.e. the unthinking simps in the bitcoin community that simply parrot the talking points. I think on a relative basis there are fewer among us. I think it’s also true, and perhaps more of a risk when you find yourself in a successful heretical movement, that at any point you can begin sliding into the normie mold. Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom… on both the individual and macro scale
