Who is we? 😂

Everything went to shit before I became an adult. It’s too late for me to do anything about it now lol

I mean all of us - earlier generations but even now. I went along with the covid bs for months before I got my act together, for instance. I'm still weaning myself from the tools that give more power in general to the state and have a long way to go on understanding and getting involved in local politics, which is where I think we can maybe have some impact.

Maybe you are completely innocent 😇 (not being sarcastic! It may be that you in fact stand by all of your decisions and the tools that you use).

And maybe none of it matters post- 1913, that the effects of that will just have to play themselves out.

I don’t think there is such a thing as a political solution. You can never satisfy the political needs of everyone. It’s simply impossible. So it always ends up being majority rule. And the majority does not care about freedom for everyone. They want their free stuff. I didn’t fall for the covid nonsense once. I even reached out to my local congressman senators mayors all that shit. Not a single one responded to me. And it’s not how you get freedom anyway. True freedom is being able to do something that no one can stop you from doing. It’s not freedom if you have to ask a politician to give you permission to do that.

I agree. The only political stuff I'm interested in (besides the theater/entertainment aspect of national news) is local, because I think we may actually have a voice there.

Re the covid stuff - I wasn't talking about a political solution; more about the importance of non-compliance. Good for you. It took me way too long!

Even locally is mob rule just at a smaller scale

It’s not hard to understand that you is the only responsible for your life and property. Give that control over you for another one in any scale is slavery.

Yes, but the rulers at the head can be held accountable, which I think makes a huge difference.

Not really. One person can’t be accountable for a small city. Like he can’t financially compensate everyone for damages he’s caused.

I'm talking town, and I guess it seems to me that humans have always - and will likely continue to - organize themselves into groups. One of my goals is stay more connected to what is happening near me so that I can't complain about changes that I didn't even try to fight.

If you vote then you can’t complain. But if you don’t vote then you’re not a consenting party.

They dont want to be responsible for their own actions and choices. Its convenient have someone to blame, but nobody check the cost.
