I know it's all the rage these days in US politics, but I don't really care what someone's race, gender, orientation, or identity is.

I just care whether they are based or not. Like what expertise or other skillset they have, or how much I can reason with them.

In other words, as someone famous once said he would like to see, I judge people based on the content of their character.

fighting defensively 100% of the time leads to defeat with 100% probability. being based, unfortunately, is defensive fighting. it is reactionary, and can only lead to defeat.

yes not fighting at all will lead to defeat much faster, but both will lead to equally certain defeat.

to have any chance of winning one must fight offensively at least some of the time. this means having your OWN vision of the future, not merely opposing somebody else's.

if all you can say is that WEF is bad, Communists bad, Jews bad ... then you can't really say much at all. because resisting the powers that be only slows their march but ultimately doesn't change the course of history.

if you can't offer an alternative vision for the future then you may not have anything to offer at all. simply going back is not the answer to anything. you can't age backwards ( as much as everybody would love to believe that you can ).

tragically when i develop innovative ideas for the future - nobody is interested - not because the ideas are bad, but because cattle class doesn't care about ideas. they just want to "resist" ...

when i start talking about ideas they call me "schizophrenic" ... they just want everybody to identify " whose side are you on ? " and then go and hurt " the bad guys " ...

for example lockdowns were meant to cool global economy, but the long term solution currently pushed by WEF sphere is 4 day work week ... this would have same effect as lockdowns but be orderly instead of chaotic.

so i proposed that instead of working 4 days on, 3 days off we simply work on alternating days. 50% population works on odd days and 50% on even days. this will completely eliminate rush hour traffic and double office capacity. AND NOBODY CARES.

because people can't be asked to do even the slightest bit of thinking. they just want to bark at each other like dogs. they don't want anything to change - they just want to complain and act "based" and feel righteous indignation and so on ...

Unfortunately, DissidentSound, you are quite correct about most people's reactions.

For politicians, politics is something you announce that brings in the lucre, likes, and lays.

For writers, activists, and people who bicker on forums, politics is about solving problems and building a better world.

For normies, politics is about putting on a team blazer and shouting yourself hoarse for a few hours every few years.

This problem isn't going away, and all political programs need to allow for it. :-/

I like sound money and mutual acceptance. And I recommend both.

People can pick their friends and can pick their money.

I don’t fight defensively 100% of the time. I get aggressive in response to attacks on key rights. If someone says it’s illegal to memorize twelve words for sound money, well, they can go fuck themselves. I’d try to help finance every legal battle and civil disobedience there is. There is good precedent for this in the 1990s with the likes of Phil Zimmerman. I’m on peaceful offense.

The best part though, is that once you have the right tech, offense gets easier.
