I turn 52 today 🥳

As a gift to myself I want to share the following with you:

We are smack in the middle of a war of ideas, and I'll tell you why this is good.

The battle is between us - the people - and the political class.

And winning requires that we constantly learn new, actionable ideas.

However, this isn't just an imperative.

Once we throw ourselves into the battle, we develop a passion for it.

You may have experienced it yourself:

Meeting new people and sharing and developing new ideas together with them is wonderful.

You discover that when positive, creative people get together, 1 + 1 is never 2.

When we meet, physically or digitally or we just read each others' writings, we often identify ideas that the other person didn't have before, enabling us to create new knowledge and more understanding together.

And sometimes, when you and I combine our ideas, we develop things that the world hasn't seen or heard before.

It might not be a gigantic innovation, and normally it's just a very, very small thing.

But it's our joint appreciation of the process itself that is so immensely rewarding.

Because we realize that 1 + 1 in the social and intellectual domain more often than not is 3, 10, 1000 a million or more.

Magical is the only way to describe this process, which is reserved to us alone, the humankind.

When this happens, you also realize that there isn't any limit to what we can achieve with more knowledge and understanding.

Immersing me in this form of social interaction gives me a constant dopamin rush.

I'm addicted.

Don't you ever force me into rehab.

Have a nice day ❤️

GM = Dzień dobry!

Why we will win

When the political class of the West shifted its focus from the combination of

monopoly on religion

+

mopopoly on money

to the combination of

information control

+

mopopoly on money

they also began digging their own grave.

Without the ability to control our fundamental belief system with a well defined religion, with a singular deity, centralized locations for worshiping, and one chosen group of religious leaders, they are IMO doomed to lose this battle with us, which very well be the last one.

Now, what should you do?

- Fight the battle of ideas

- Fight for freedom and sovereignty, and against the master/slave mentality

- Fight for your right to use the money you like best

Let's win this.

And remember:

Truth is the brightest light.

This is not people being locked out of a free speech platform, it's people being locked out of Musks coercive agenda propoganda machine, and learning tools exist that transcend private interest and heavy hand of state.
