Yes I do and I'm thankful you do too. I really appreciated the first 400 words of this, Peter.

Your enemy feeds off of resistance. Understand the greatest generals of history Christ and Lao/Sun Tzu and dont give them resistance. Better to retreat. Our enemy is radicalizing people to our side. Let them and show them how easy it is to leave.

What the localist would advocate is a scaled-based state, with the majority of power at a local level. It is a big divide to overcome in consolidating the decentralization advocates. I believe a monopoly in any regard carries with it risk to the rights of individuals, one sure to grow with time, not decrease. Is it enough to disregard the label of a "state" if there are multiple entities competing against one another for the support and function a populace? Certainly the big tech cartel in current existence would indicate a no when they work in concert to further their own interests at the expense of individual or group liberty. If a set of groups control all the functions of a state in an area with the inability to opt-out of their authority, are they not a state?

My back is fucked up from serving in the terror war era with multiple Afghan deployments. It is a daily problem that will not get better. It is a nice reminder of the past, as the years go by and the memories get fuzzy. As function declines, it effects my ability to interact and play with my children. It definitely feels like my patriotism and desire to be a protector was taken advantage of to make sure resource flow and geopolitical stayed constant to enrich oligarchs who control the state. In 2007 when I joined, it was complete taboo to denounce the wars. Now they are denounced by a large majority of my peers. However, they are not quite at hating "the state". I personally believe it needs a new name, if not only for decades of propaganda efforts about its necessity. I don't think anyone would argue it is a bridge to far to get a majority of people to adopt the "hate the state" in our lifetimes. But, I do believe any motion in the direction of liberty is a positive no matter how imperfect. I am lost at messaging to reach these people, most need a daily reminder.

When they started restricting breathing the public air in Rockland County NY over Jews literally Jews not carrying their measles papers (night as well call it measley papers), I saw the writing on the wall. It was the perfect test ground to see if people would support the govt targeting Jews for breathing outside their homes. The public was primarily unaware and didn’t care. Now, no one can breathe the public air and in many places the private air. More govts around the world encouraging people to wear masks in their cars and at home. But no one draws any line. They just keep saying “that’s not my line in the sand.” Then the testing to receive any medical service. Wonder why the hospitals are backed up when you just doubled the workload for even the most basic otherwise in and out patients??? But everyone complied with testing and having their fucking face raped hard by these sobs for a test that if done right might be 50% effective but it’s usually done in such a way as to render it 100% “insignificant” -Fauci’s word- not to promote him but to point out the irony here. No one is holding their line in the sand and if the default for most conservatives is whether or not a private business demands it means you should (as one self described left libertarian said to me yesterday) “just shut up and do what they tell you” is required for entry... Uh, no, bro! I will neither shut up nor shall I give that business my money. I guess you missed that most important lesson in the free market. I don’t have to give them my money and I am free to advocate others do the same based on my experience. It’s called word of mouth and it isn’t just for good reviews. It’s what keeps any business free and honorable.

The vaccine is BAD news from what I can tell. It literally overwrites your natural immune system which is 99.9% effective. They might try to mandate, they might even try to force it without even telling you (giving it during tests).

Thought experiment...You have certain politics (pure peaceful christian anarchist) and your enemy is pure tyranny as symbolized by the covid lockdowns etc. Lets say you are right, and they are left, i mean wrong. Lets say they foment wars and manufacture cov19 just to have the public willingly accept complete tyranny in the purest form a vaxx. And lets say this vaxx sterilizes or outright murders people with no liability. Is it funny who is asking to take this vaxx?
