What's fascinating is watching the increasing concentration of "power" in pro-state hands - as you describe well in your post - alongside the obvious collapse in the function of the institutions they now control. The tighter their control becomes, the more obvious the failure becomes.

What's tragic is that so many people are so destroyed by following the dominant philosophy faithfully - believing the rich and powerful when they promise "a better world" - that they are no longer capable of recognizing that it doesn't have to be this way. Their capacity for critical thought, and for critical moral judgment has been gutted by the abuse they have suffered.

I wish I knew how to reach people who genuinely do not understand that their saviours are the problem.

I wish I knew how to reach people who genuinely do not understand that their saviours are the problem.

Likewise. I do have the belief though that the majority of people aren't motivated by reason, but rather by the social networks they're a part of. I think this is the only thing that explains why so many will do a 180 on their former beliefs they moment they're no longer accepted with their group.

I have a friend who went from libertarian to socialist, and I believe this is the reason why. He is huge into Reddit and when the culture of Reddit changed, so did he.

So really, reaching them may not be the goal, unless you can find a new and better social group for them to join. A better option would be building up alternate communities and social groups that will gradually appeal to these people and take them in once they're large enough. Or changing the culture of existing large social groups.

It is not just conservatives who are not getting the jab. It is literally anyone who thinks for themselves. This is a purge of independent thinkers.

I don't care about vax mandates, at the end of the day THEY CANNOT FORCE YOU TO TAKE A VAX and I'll tell you why and how you can be guaranteed to not have to do it with 2 simple words:

"I'm allergic"

There isn't a pharmacist, any doctor or any health care provider that would risk giving you anaphylaxis for a flu vaccine. You can tell them you had a flu vaccine when you were 9 years old and it almost killed you. They can't demand you medical records to prove you're allergic or not, considering any record from when you were 9 were even to still exist.

THEY CANNOT FORCE YOU TO TAKE A VAX

Yes they can. In the future you will have to scan your QR code vax passport to have your power turned on or order groceries.

good theory yeah it's true

starting our own businesses is hard even during normal times as most small businesses fail. Even harder now as economy is failing. But, never give up.

I wouldn't recommend that people go out and spend a ton of start-up capital. Rather, it's best to begin something as a "side hustle" that takes very little initial investment but can be scaled up if there's potential.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

it all depends. a lot of times a small business isn't going to succeed unless the owner puts in 80 hour weeks for it at the start. It takes a lot of work and you probably can't hire many employees starting out. Time is money of course. If you have a good job already yeah keep doing that and do a side hustle for a minimal amount of hours. Lot of people don't already have a great job, should they focus many hours on their own business or on working at mcdonalds.

tyrant-wannabees outing themselves - made obvious to the 'Conservatives' (and anyone sane) and once the target is in view then the countering of them is far easier.

the lefties think they can steamroller everyone, but they will hit a mountain that will drop on them.

Yep. It is a different means to othererize their enemies. The same outcome happened pre WWII though the means were totally different and more overt.

this is a textbook classic shill tactic, it is explained in detail on my site.

http://ummnca5kynfahjes6jd4hfny7hwcloicsjxpo5abp4cfm4hhtis6k4qd.onion/

the majority of the shills are very shallow homosexuals.. internally, they are very empty and unhappy people.. the majority of them are addicted to narcotics and are also addicted to sex.

be very careful around these types.

the vaxx will be used to eliminate the people that were vaccinated.

every person that i talk to about their vaccine tells me of disturbing things that happened to their body... remember eric clapton? eric clapton got the vaccine and he couldnt use his hands to play his guitar and go on tour.. these vaccines are more than they appear to be.. DO. NOT. TAKE. THE. VACCINE. UNLESS. YOU. WANT. TO. DIE.
