The records nobody disputes — the trail that needs no faith at all.
The trail that needs no faith — only the documented record: MKULTRA, Tuskegee, the Guidestones, Agenda 2030, the fact-checks. For the skeptical reader first: every stop is a file you can open. The codex’s argument is that the record alone is strange enough — this trail is that argument, walked.
