Spiritual evolution is seeking satisfaction in free will. We are deceived about how we feel and what we can do with ourselves. We are set up to have dependencies on others through imbalances. Balance occurs when we know the truth and observe all of the relevant pieces as we make decisions. Feelings come from our beliefs of what is real. It all starts with correct perception. That's why we're set up to have incorrect perception. Knowledge is power to make more competent decisions. We may have a free will, but it is in a soup of deceivers that know what we don't and endlessly exploit us for pleasure and control.

It seems to me that we're being set up for proving ourselves inadequate custodians of Earth and even our own race to outsiders and ourselves. This sets up an environment of increasing pretexts to take away our free will on a long term basis. It's a multifaceted approach, like a mean game of chess. They're aggravating us to de-animate us from tell all the relevant truths, having all of the relevant feelings and carrying out the relevant actions to fix our own problems. They want to appear legitimate as they end our free will. They're all over the chess board. They are using humans to set up an panopticon with technology to effectively control our decisions. They're controlling its opposition too. They want some form of control and they can compete for our consent. What they don't want is our informed self-determination, because we don't want them and we'd kick them out of our lives.
