Well I’ve red Uncle Ted’s manifesto and rejected that path, so I’ve decided to better understand society and how it both ticks and is manipulated and am trying to do so at the level of the puppet masters.

That requires class analysis and the video above is an excellent example. He isn’t throwing a pity party for parasites, he’s explaining the patronage aspects of modern liberal democracy’s in essence through Aristotelian political theory.

Understanding this stuff is how you can work towards different social structures where your own class isn’t the one under the boot.

Well good luck, it's still the plantation & the other slaves are the slave catchers, they'll always do it for fear of losing their scraps from the table.

And for some reason they have an aversion to others avoiding what they've had to do... apparently they see this as "unfair", they get quite vindictive.

You've no doubt seen how effective the slaves policing the slaves was in East Germany, the core areas of the Soviet Union, various others.

The people who want to be left alone & will keep their mouths shut are primarily on the fringes.

To put it in permaculture terms, the edge zone...

When was the last time you got out of your country?

You might be surprised to learn there are a lot of places where being left alone is still the default - they’re just not in the West any more.

Good for them, we're here.

With those baffled by bullshit & dazzled by trinkets...
