Glenn, I don't particularly like Trump, but I agree with you completely about what is going on. I struggle to process my own fears of this. I try to tell those I know, mostly family, what is going on. I have little success at that, even among my grandchildren, most of whom have been co opted by technology and declare that they don't care who is watching them and refuse to believe they are not going to be allowed to do what they want to do. I can stand up, write, talk - but what PRACTICAL steps can I take to protect myself and possibly make a safe place for those I love should they want to share it? If I talk about that with others, I am simply told that wherever I go, whatever I do, "they" will come after me because "they" cannot tolerate any dissident no matter how quiet or remote. Please, offer suggestions on practical ways we can prepare. My own instinct has been to form community and learn to live within that community sustainably and self-sufficiently (growing one's own food and making one's own energy). Alone, I cannot do that, but maybe others who have like minded friends can. Those who just want to lie down and die (and so many people are exhausted) tell me that's no use, everyone will be hunted down. Please reply. Elizabeth
Thank you, Glenn. I've done my own research so I don't need to be convinced. What I'm NOT hearing (anywhere) is what, EXACTLY, do we need to do? I think there are a lot of folks like me, who see and understand what is happening but unsure what steps we need to take. Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Debbie. As I see it, there are three things that we MUST do…
FIRST, we need to wake up. We need to see through the propaganda and we have to stop letting others make us scared. Stop watching the big networks because it doesn’t matter how strong you are, you will fall prey to their propaganda. The propaganda arm of media and social media is extremely sophisticated, and it’s personalized to you. Watch the documentary “The Social Dilemma” to see how deep this propaganda goes. You need to purge all forms of propaganda media and stop believing the crap that they are telling you. Be skeptical. Do NOT trust the media. Don’t trust governors who are trying to scare you into giving up your rights. Instead, find small, independent journalists and commentators that you trust. I recommend Ben Swann, Glenn Greenwald, Anomoly, Ron Paul, Tom Woods and of course, me. Also, stop using Google. I will warn you, it is very hard to get away from the propaganda.
SECOND, you need to spread this message. Convince others on a one-on-one basis. Don’t worry about trying to spread the message on FB. Instead identify the people you know who will be open to this message and forward this article to them.
THIRD, and most important, do not allow the government to take away our freedoms. We must stand up for our freedoms. The Constitution protects our freedoms, but only if we protect the Constitution. We must cherish and stand up for the Constitution. I recommend that you reacquaint yourself with the Constitution, and I recommend that you listen to Tom Woods and Ron Paul, and buy books from the Tuttle Twins to teach your children about freedom and the Constitution.
Well said. I felt for some time the abuse by FB and Twitter and their subsequent censorship resembled China's social credit scoring. Totally underway in the U.S. sad!
