I feel lazy creating a Substack that is going to consist almost entirely of what someone else wrote but what I’m going to share is powerful and goes to the title above. I do understand that in my podcast much of what I present to the audience is people who have information they may not have a chance to hear elsewhere so I’ll just consider this as such.
Many reading this own firearms. Some of you may own many. One thing I know is that most gun owners hide how many they have more jealously than they do their net worth. BUT, if those in charge of this ‘anarcho-tyranny’ just make it illegal for you to use those guns, even in a defensive manner, then they may as well be scrap metal. Especially if in the process they are making it legal for their apparatchiks to use all manner of violence that a firearm is best suited to defend against.
This is a series of Tweets by Nate Fischer that summarize this subject better than I can. PLEASE read and digest these!
My takeaway from this brilliant Twitter thread is something I catch shit for mentioning from the anarchists/libertarians living in Ancapistan in their heads; politics is about rewarding your friends and punishing your enemies. The Left has been in power for some time now (yes, even when Trump had the Court and Congress) and they are maneuvering to make sure their power never reduces and only increases no matter who controls the White House, etc. The good guys don’t like that and think it’s immoral (wahhhhhhhhhh). That’s how politics is played and it’s not going anywhere.
With the rise of digital currencies that can be turned off on you at any moment, anarcho-tyranny continues to grow. This is the part where people ask for answers. Here’s an idea, how about those relying on answers from content creators try to come up with solutions and tell ME. There are alternatives to digitally controlled currencies that most people can mention quickly. What is the solution to anarcho-tyranny?
All of these things should always be looked from the friend/Enemy distinction since politics is War by other means. The Left is Not Anti Guns since their Entire ideology revolves around forcing people to adopt their beliefs by any means and if it requires Violence so be it. The answers to this is not universal Gun ownership like every LoLbertarian wants but have it so where the left is banned from owning firearms & organization that speak against firearm ownership. While rewarding Organization & individuals that are friendly to us & Advances the Rights stance on firearm ownership as a absolute right that should never be challenged ever again. This is how you win. Permanently.
Well, the obvious answer to currency replacement is the barter system. It has worked for thousands of years, and there is very little that can be done to inhibit it. It works everywhere. I deliver bread for a large company. Bread that doesn't sell is donated/discarded. I glean product that is not damaged and barter it for meat from a meat cutter. Sometimes I can barter that meat for honey from a friend with an apiary. My wife and I mark public access areas where we can harvest wild asparagus. When we bought property, we searched for one with mature fruit trees, which also features rhubarb, asparagus and horseradish (which we don't care for, but it has tremendous health benefits and is nearly impossible to eliminate once it is established).
Start saving heirloom seeds folks. Building capacity in ourselves by learning trades and technical knowledge is going to pay great dividends regardless of the drama that surrounds us.
