Trusted wisdom for an upside down world.

Hi from Glenn!

I hope you are having a fantastic day!

Please forward this newsletter to all of your friends and family! 😀

Here are the five points I think you will like today...

👁️ FIRST, please share my privacy webinar replay!

Last Thursday I held a free online webinar to teach people…

1) WHY online privacy is absolutely vital in today’s world,

2) HOW to properly think about online privacy,

3) FIVE THINGS you can do right now,

4) AND I held a live Q&A session in which I answered people’s questions.

I’ve decided to keep this webinar up for another week so you can share it with your friends and loved ones. Please take this opportunity right now to share it with your friends, family, church friends and business associates! This is vital information!

Watch the webinar replay here!

🍳 SECOND, watch this valuable interview.

I am friends with one of the gurus in the emergency food industry. He’s actually one of the very early creators of the industry. I had a quick interview with him to discuss a different strategy for emergency food that you may not have heard before. I think you will find this interview to be quite interesting.

🧸 THIRD, another look at death rates (hint: they’re not nearly as bad as you think).

As I said in my last newsletter, the VAST majority of people overestimate the danger of this illness, especially for people under 50.

This is an interesting interactive graph.

Here is a rare article from mainstream media that questions the fear mongering.

One of the leading thinkers who has the pulse on the real truth about the virus numbers is Tom Woods. I recommend that you listen to him and sign up for his newsletter.

And yes, of course, people who have previously had the virus are much more protected against reinfection than people who have received the vaccine. This is common sense, and it has been known for a long time by people who are open to looking at the real science (source one, source two).

✏️ FOURTH, here’s a great video about decision making.

😇 FIFTH, beware anger.

We are facing global propaganda on a massive scale right now. One of the requirements for propaganda to work is that people’s emotions have to be worked up.

If you are level-headed, you will keep a balanced perspective on life. If you are angry or fearful, you are easy to manipulate.

In my opinion, this is why the propaganda has been so effective over the past year and a half. Many people, including most people in entertainment and the media, were furious over Trump. They didn’t just dislike him. They hated him with passion.

This made these people more susceptible to propaganda, fear mongering and lies, while people who were less emotionally worked up were better at keeping perspective. Yes, of course, I am making generalizations and of course there are many exceptions on all sides, but here’s how to tell if you have fallen into the propaganda trap…

• If you believe that the virus is much more dangerous than it is, you are a victim of manipulation.

• If you believe that Conservatives are primarily (or even a significant number) white supremacists, then you are a victim of propaganda.

• If you believe that people who don’t obey the government should be treated as second class citizens, you are a victim of propaganda.

• If you are not aware of the tremendous censorship that is going on right now, or if you believe that the censorship is justified, you have been manipulated.

The keys to stopping propaganda are…

1. Turn OFF the news. It’s very difficult to resist the propaganda trap if you listen to the news. Instead, question what you hear. Listen to investigative journalists who are actually truth seekers. Some examples are Glenn Greenwald, Jordan Schachtel, Alex Berenson, and Tom Woods.

2. Don’t turn against your fellow man. Live and let live.

3. Don’t get too emotional. I’m worried that people are getting emotional about the Afghanistan issue right now, and this will cause people to become more susceptible to propaganda.

4. Be grateful. Love life. Spend time with your loved ones.

To help you do this, I created something that you can print off and put on your refrigerator. I call it the Relax Into Life Manifesto. You can download it here.

🔒 PRIVACY ACTION PLAN. The Privacy Action Plan is an online course that teaches you how to get private and secure online. Getting private and secure can be an overwhelming process because there is a lot to think about, which is why members of the Privacy Action Plan receive a couple emails each week with small, bite-sized actions to take. Instead of focusing on the big picture, just focus on the task in front of you and before you know it you will have your privacy and security figured out.

💧 WATER PURIFICATION. We live in a toxic world. One of the most important things you can do to protect your family's health is to ensure that every ounce of water that they consume is as pure as possible. Read an article I wrote about water here, or go here to invest in a premium water distiller today! 

🙋‍♀️ HOMESCHOOLING. When it comes to teaching your children about the enduring principles of freedom, many parents don't know where to start, so I recommend two resources. First is the Ron Paul Curriculum. For his entire life, Ron Paul has been one of the leaders in liberty education. I strongly recommend his curriculum! The second resource is the Tuttle Twins book series. This book series is wonderfully presented and it helps you introduce the ideas of liberty to your children and have meaningful family discussions about them. I have purchased all of the Tuttle Twin books myself, I love them and I recommend them to you.
