Have you ever watched a TV show or movie and there is an issue or problem either with someone or with something? Maybe it's a bad person that is lying and manipulating, or maybe it's a problem that needs to be solved.
In either case, other characters learn about something, but they keep it to themselves. Meanwhile, other people don't have access to this new piece of information. And this keeps going on per character. One person learn something about the person or problem here, and another person there, yet they aren't sharing the knowledge amongst each other. Everyone is keeping secrets, thinking it's what is best, but it isn't.

The bad character keeps manipulating people, telling lies, and getting away with it because people aren't connecting the dots because they aren't sharing the information with each other. They aren't telling each other what other people have said or did to see if everything lines up coherently, congruently, in alignment and non-contradiction. If they did, they would soon figure out that the manipulative evil character is lying to them and manipulating them because they would connect their pieces of information and find contradictions in what the liar was saying to each of them.
The same happens with a bad scenario, where there is a problem that needs to be dealt with. From sci, to thriller, to horror and drama fiction, there are people who learn about something that is going on, but they don't share the knowledge with others who are in the same boat.
How are they supposed to figure out a solution together if they don't even share the information they have to apply a proper solution? One person has A, B, C pieces of info. Another person has A, G, X. Another has G, H, I and another has X, Y, Z. Each person has 3 out of 26 (12%) of the pieces individually, working in isolation to try to make sense of a problem.
If they all shared their information, they would all have A, B, C, G, H, I, X, Y, Z information, that's 9 out of 26 or 355 of the pieces. Not only does each persons amount of knowledge and understanding grow individually, but now they are all on the same page and able to work on the problem from more-or-less the same level of understanding.

These scenarios in fictional TV shows or movies is a lesson to learn about real life and learning to understand more about the world we share.
There is a lot of information in the world. A lot of it is noise, garbage, fodder and useless distractions in terms of making sense of the bigger picture of understanding what is happening here. To develop a bigger and more accurate understanding of what's happening, we need to collect information and make links between them to see how the pieces of the puzzle fit together. We need to assimilate and filter information for contradictions to help us discern truth from falsity.
A lie is so powerful. Anyone can lie, and even someone who says the truth as the opposite won't necessarily be believed. If a lie is said first, it's often more believed than the truth that comes later.
The Internet has opened up a world of potential for us to connect to and share information with others. This helps us all connect information bits and pieces together to create larger connections and greater understanding of what is happening in reality.

Truth is being amplified by the Internet and the connectivity in brings for all of us. Secrecy has been employed by the powerful for so long. Governments and their intelligence agencies have had a monopoly on knowing what is going on and keeping it from the rest of us. They have the knowledge that is kept hidden and secret from everyone else, giving them an upper-hand and power differential in reality. But the new technological age has revolutionized the paradigm and turned the power structure on it's head.
The new threat to the powerful are individuals who don't keep secrets but share and connect the information they all have. With this threat to the survival of the established power-dominance, we enter the "post-truth" and "fake news" hype that tries to discredit information that isn't part of the establishment's narrative and storyline.
They create lies, such as wars they engineer, like in Syria. They try to get people to accept an unreality as reality, to accept falsity and truth. So many blindly trust the news agencies and the governments that feed them the information they have about what is going locally and in the world at large. We're all being mocked as we buy into the lies they sell. It's a masterful manipulation through mainstream media like news, and even movies that purport to be historical are selling the establishment narrative to keep feeding a steady dose of unreality for people to consume.

The Internet is the last hope we have for freedom of information and the way for us to share and connect the pieces of how we are being lied to, deceived and manipulated in order to perpetuate large-scale wrong-doings against others. Share your knowledge. Let freedom reign by increasing the truth in your life and removing the falsity that allows the powerful manipulators to keep us living in an unreality. Liars and manipulators only keep getting away with their deceptions because people don't communicate and spread the knowledge about them. The Internet has changed the game for the global dominators.
I think the greatest time to be alive so far in human history, is now. We have a lot going for us to turn the tables and set things right. Are we going to be able to?
Thank you for your time and attention. Peace.
