Toxic Masculinity and Feminism’s Great Lie

I recently ran across a video of Dr. Jordan Peterson taking questions from an audience on a college campus when a young woman asked Dr. Peterson what his solution to ‘toxic masculinity’ was. Before responding to her question, Dr. Peterson asked her to define the term. He claimed he wanted to ensure he was accurate in his response. That being said, I am 99% positive that Peterson did this simply because he knew she couldn’t. And he was right.
She stuttered, she faltered, her face went blank. As I watched her trip over herself trying to answer an unanswerable question, it hit me:
In the micro, not only was this mal-informed woman unable to define a term she herself just used and it was damn funny to watch her struggle. He stopped her premise in its tracks by one simple question.
But in the macro, her inability to define her own term implies a larger truth: that Toxic Masculinity doesn’t exist at all except as a limp rhetorical bludgeon to hammer away at the values of Western Civilization (ironically which includes universities, ffs). It’s a term that feminists simply cry out like ‘racist!’ or ‘bigot!’ or ‘homophobe!’ but never think very deeply about.
But why?
Leftist women have come to believe through unending feminist brainwashing since birth that, among other ill-founded tropes, what defines a man somehow resides within a framework defined completely in feminine terms. This is wrong on its face. Men and women are different animals. I believe John Gray once made a tiny fortune explaining this little nugget of wisdom.
This is why I laugh when women decry the double standard between men and women regarding their sexual histories: Yes, Virginia, there IS a double standard. The standards are different because men and women, and the expectations placed upon them since 10,000 B.C., are different.
Not to put too fine a point on things, but Feminism, feminists and those who pull their strings have lied to women for generations. It is only now that many women are waking up to their lie, which is extremely gratifying to watch.
Now, as I was creating the first draft of this essay and almost as if on cue, I received a letter from a woman who attempted to silence my masculine and unafraid manner of expression and cage it within her feminine framework. The irony here is that feminists HATE femininity but are all too willing to attack maleness being expressed in a masculine way.
I present her letter, unedited, to illustrate my point:
I’m a patriot and a fan of KrisAnne Hall who has info about your app on her website. So, I was interested in reading your ‘Articles’ on her website. I’m a Judeo-Christian and a US Patriot. While I do believe your app is a good idea and was initially interested in downloading it, I don’t appreciate you calling people ‘assholes’ and degrading people for their not being a Patriot. I strongly believe in what the Bible teaches us about ‘loving your neighbor’ and ‘loving your enemies’. We should beat our enemies through kindness, doing what is right in God’s eyes which He teaches us in His Word, and following our US Constitution, Declaration of Independence and local laws. We should not stoop down to the enemy’s (Satan) level with ‘name calling’ or making fun of them. We should state the facts without colorful commentary which is what our spiritual enemy (Satan) uses. I hope you have a blessed day.
Please allow me to retort (h/t Sam Jackson):
First, what the hell is a ‘Judeo-Christian??’ Do Judeo-Christians go to church or synagogue? I mean, holy hell. Does she really think we’re all this stupid to take this statement and let it pass? Spoiler alert, yes. Yes, she DOES believe you’re that stupid.
Secondly: I don’t believe for a second that this person is a patriot, nor that she values Liberty or Freedom. Instead, it is my very strong conviction that she is an enemy of Liberty and is attempting to cloak herself in the trappings of our movement to hide this fact. Yes, she uses all the buzzwords like “Constitution” and “patriot” but these are merely tropes to falsely establish her patriot bona fides. She might as well tell me how un-racist she is because of all the black friends she has. There are other little indicators in her letter that give away her game and reveal her true thinking, but I’ll keep those to myself.
And I’ll tell you right now that these toothless wolves in sheep’s clothing are exceedingly easy to spot if you’re paying attention. Any time someone is about to lay some bullshit on you, they always preface it with why their opinion matters more than yours. There is a loose script that all good communists follow, and they even use it when their different victim segments are squabbling among themselves! This woman’s email is no different.
The script goes like this: “Yeah, well, as a [insert victim label here], I’m uniquely positioned to tell you that you’re wrong and you’re not allowed to have a different opinion because you’re not a [insert victim label here] like me!
If you read closer in this person’s email above, you’ll notice she uses this script no less than three times! Consider the following:
First she establishes her bona fides (sheep’s clothing):
  • “I’m a patriot and fan of KrisAnne Hall…”
  • “I’m a Judeo-Christian (sic)…”
  • “I believe your app is a good idea…”
And now she makes her argument (the toothless wolf’s bite):
  • “I don’t appreciate…”
  • “We should beat our enemies through kindness…”
  • “We should not stoop down…”
Ronna McDaniel, is that you? I think we have all learned now that we are at war and invocations to respond with limp wrists, comity and losing strategies are long invalidated. Which makes this person’s letter all the more interesting.
The tactic that the letter’s author advocates (comity and being ‘above the fray’) are exactly what the RINOs would have us do. I’m going to go out on a limb here and estimate that this person is NOT a dyed-in-the-wool communist, but rather a Never-Trumping, RINO foot soldier (The NeoCon’s Antifa, as it were) who noticed my presence on a previously identified target of the regime (KrisAnne Hall) and took me as a target of opportunity. No dice, sister. I see you.
Secondly, this person attempts to leverage what she assumes as my Faith against me (Saul Alinsky would be proud) but fails. She parrots platitudes such as ‘love thy neighbor’ to strong arm me into weakness. Understand, dear reader, that when a RINO, communist or feminist is quoting the bible, it is only meant to neuter your righteous defiance against their tyranny. Rules for Radicals enumerates this specifically:
“Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.”
Yeah, well, her use of ‘turning the other cheek’ as some form of limp resistance to tyrannical rule is merely an attempt to get Christians to live by our own Book of rules. Unfortunately for her, she was wrong.
You see, our enemies mistakenly believe that Jesus was some sort of sandal-wearing, 30-something hippy preaching rainbows and unicorns that just ran afoul of the power structure 2,000 years ago. I’m no theologian, but while Jesus preached love and forgiveness, he also flipped over moneychanger tables at the temple, didn’t He? If memory serves, didn’t He also recommend that we ‘sell our cloak’ and buy a…what was it He told His followers to buy again? I daresay that Jesus could be a badass when he wanted to be.
The author of this well-timed letter also tells us that we should revere the laws and ‘follow the Declaration of Independence.’ Excuse me? Follow the Declaration of Independence? Are you kidding me? Have you ever heard any patriot utter such nonsense? Only a RINO or communist could be so ignorant and stupidly assume that we are as ignorant as they!
So, no. I think I’m not going to pay much attention to your email, writer. You have been weighed and measured and found wanting. But I DO thank you for helping me illustrate a point I was already making in a very useful and timely fashion.
Our enemy’s desire is to weaken our resolve and they are attempting it both from within and without. One of their tools is the toxic masculinity trope that only masks their hatred for anything truly masculine: the inherent instinct to fight, conquer and protect.
Refuse to accept their premise, dear reader, in all its permutations. Never allow our enemies to define our nature by falsely (and insidiously) applying a feminine metric to our actions that is only meant to weaken you. Stand Fast.
Sincerely,
R. Altomare

A Useful Idiot Blows His Cover

They Are Still Out There

As many of you know, the BreathEasy app has been live since the summer, and we’ve had great success in spreading the word about this new tool in the Patriot’s arsenal to fight tyranny and illegal mandates. As you well know, the BreathEasy app allows its users to vote on businesses on how well they respect your rights. Being a BreathEasy business is an invitation into the Parallel Economy given by the customers’ own votes.

Does a business force their employees to wear a mask?

Are they a leftist organization that supports evil?

Vote them down and spread the word about them. Our votes starve the beast of our hard-earned money and redirect it to businesses who share our values.

For much of the summer as BreathEasy has grown, we haven’t had many detractors at all; everyone instinctively understands the true value of creating a network of likeminded businesses and consumers united by common values. Together we become unstoppable. It’s not a hard concept to explain.

But this week was different. BreathEasy received its first ‘limp shot across the bow’ by one of those useful idiots we saw burning down cities last year in “mostly peaceful protests.”

And just like all domestic enemies and FBI agent provocateurs, he was clothed in the trappings of a Patriot pretending to be interested only in advancing the cause of Liberty.

Unfortunately for him, however, he simply couldn’t hide his simmering hate emblematic of the foot soldiers of despotism. Let’s take a look at his email for your entertainment.

[All typos and profanities left as received. Does spell check not work for Communists?]:

You’re site is supposed to let me vote for shit bag businesses that people need to hear about. When I try to down vote I get a stupid ass message saying- ‘don’t be shy mac, get closer and speak your mind”. WTF is that? I’m trying to speak my mind, and I’ve sent them a detailed breakdown of why they are a piece of shit business! So, does your app work, or not?

Sorry, but I wasted my time signing up and giving you my information, it pisses me off that it doesn’t work.

Dear reader, I can tell you without reservation, this individual was not a Liberty-loving compatriot in the trenches with us fighting for the Rights of Man. This was a basement-dwelling, keyboard-wielding, cheeto-dusted Social Justice ‘Warrior’ attempting to poison the reputations of Patriot businesses by fraudulently downvoting them from the comfort of his mother’s home. And he also gives up the game when he mentions that what he truly regrets is ‘giving me his information.’ He now knows his cover is blown and he is now a known quantity. Our enemies only prosper in the dark and his shield of anonymity has been ripped from him, and he knows it.

Unfortunately for our lazy enemy, he soon discovered that my feet were on Freedom’s Battlefield well before he was born; He failed to account for the fact that I fully recognize that we are at war and, as such, I designed BreathEasy to play both offense and defense.

The BreathEasy app plays offense by taking the fight to the enemy. We will create a united front against illegal mandates and summarily IGNORE them. BreathEasy businesses do not enforce illegal mandates as agents of the government and when a BreathEasy business is targeted by our enemies, the call goes out to the network to render support.

The BreathEasy app plays defense by disallowing the tired tactics of lazy thinkers and fraudulent actors. Today’s most recent useful idiot thought he had an original idea to fraudulently downvote patriot businesses and thereby ruin our network from the inside. He’s optimistic, if not hopelessly naïve.

“These people are stupid.”

They constantly underestimate the unconquerable Human Spirit that is grounded in Liberty and intrinsic to our being. So little research did this mental midget do, that he did not know that BreathEasy users must be physically present at the business to render a vote!

He quickly learned that he must put down his Xbox controller, get off his cigarette-burned couch, dust off the Cheeto crumbs from his scraggly, adolescent ‘beard’ and march his sweatpanted ass down to the Patriot’s place of business to make his Karen voice heard.

Friends, I can tell you that I have received legitimate criticisms from well-meaning patriots that I should loosen up this rule and allow people to vote from home on the internet. These folks are easy to identify as well-intentioned patriots. But just as easily identified are the ‘Insider Threats’ such as the most recent run-in with Antifa’s JV team. I provide this as an object lesson that while BreathEasy is experiencing significant growth and support by our friends, our enemies are not yet vanquished.

Here’s the irony of it all: Sam, the Social Justice Failure attempted to pervert the Patriot Economy’s Ballot Box called BreathEasy just as his ilk have done to the Electoral ballot box with mail-in voting. I swear, there’s not an original thought in the whole bunch.

And, for your reading enjoyment, I provide my reply:

Relax. You must be within 250 feet to vote on the business. This prevents Basement Dwelling, Antifa snowflakes such as yourself from voting maliciously from their couch.

Additionally, you don’t vote from the website, you vote from the app. Or didn’t you know that?

Curious: How is it you sent a ‘detailed breakdown’ of why they are a woke business when the only option is to tag the businesses with prewritten descriptions?

Gosh, is it possible you’re not exactly as you claim?

Quelle Surprise….

Sorry, Mac. You’re gonna have to leave your parent’s basement to do your “damage.”

Sincerely,

R. Altomare

PS: While this week’s example of failed adulthood was the first attempt to subvert the BreathEasy App, he certainly wasn’t the first naysayer to appear. Unfortunately, the individual who claims this ignominious title was a former friend that came out of the woodwork who believed that writing anonymously would protect his identity. It didn’t. He was as transparent as Spooky Mulder.

Come now, Mick. You must certainly know by now that there are ‘no more secrets…’

The National Dog Fight – The Mental Damage

I will be the first to admit that no matter how optimistic I am for our guaranteed victory over the echelons of usurped power and nefarious influence, I still grow weary of our war. “Doom Porn” is a word now and it inundates us on a daily basis, and, because of our constant connectedness, bad news is inescapable.

In any war, it is incumbent upon soldiers and generals to count casualties and try to determine who “won.” But beyond these metrics, another method not typically commented upon is the fortitude of the citizens themselves; How willing are they to continue the fight? How committed are they to victory? Do the people continue to support their political leaders in their fight? These can be the more significant metric than any others. As the saying goes, “It’s not the dog in the fight, it’s the fight in the dog.”

There is no clearer or more obvious marker for individuals who have lost their will to fight and who have been mentally beaten by our war than the unmandated wearing of masks (aka ‘slave muzzles’). We all see these people who every day. Even down here in Free Florida people continue to voluntarily wear these instruments of subjugation. But why? 

Here in Florida, the government mandates have ceased and will never come back. And the requirements by businesses to wear a mask or show your vaccine status have also ceased (and the BreathEasy app ensures that no business will EVER dare mandate such foolishness again). Add to this the general disappearance of the perennial busybodies (‘Karen’) who enthusiastically acted as government overseers for uppity slaves all sum to a ‘win’ for Freedom. Absent these loudspeakers for oppression, why are there still individuals who continue to subjugate themselves by wearing masks to, literally, nobody?

The answer is because these people have been mentally broken.

Our fellow citizens who bought into the Lie might be forgiven for being fooled by liars. But they will never be forgiven (by me, at any rate) for attempting to enforce their own delusion on those of us who saw through the Lie. They were falsely righteous in their attacks on us thinking they were doing the Lord’s work and “keeping people safe” when in fact they were doing the Devil’s work, acting as de facto overseers on behalf of globalist plantation owners. And now that the lie is crumbling and many are learning of the lethality of the injections they have received, they are now asking for amnesty. Patriots, no quarter must be given on this issue. Never forget how they treated us.

But it is those that suffer the illegal mandates in muted, accommodating silence that are the untold victims to the mental violence of our time. During the lockdowns, these people (we all know at least one) wore the slave muzzle without question and do so even now! We see them every day in shops, in grocery stores, at our local Target. 

But there are others who are so damaged, so far gone, that it will take years of de-programming to ever bring them back from their mental edge. And let’s be honest, these mentally weak people were always out there but it took a Lie so massive and compliance so total to bring it out and show how degraded our people’s fortitude (in general) had become.

Last week, I was at a stop light when a car pulled up beside me. As I looked over, I realized that I was presented with an example of a person so totally, mentally broken that I was inspired to write this essay. (the air freshener was a nice, ironic touch)A Broken Man

This poor devil was in his car, alone, wearing a mask, with the windows up, in Free Florida. But the coup de grace was when I looked closer.  When you zoom in on the picture you will notice that this poor soul has poked a hole through his mask to allow him to smoke his pipe

Imagine: This man was faced with the choice of which addiction to feed his addiction to nicotine and his addiction to subjugation and, God bless him, he found a way to feed both. There are a couple of lessons contained within this living, breathing meme that I witnessed that day:

  1. Even in the most heinous circumstances, people will create ridiculous justifications and contortions of logic to accommodate insults to their personal freedoms and attempt to maintain some semblance of comfort. And, 
  1. Some people have been so mentally broken by this war and to such an extent that all mental faculties for critical thinking or understanding of what ‘Freedom’ truly means have been erased. They have forgotten, or never learned, their heritage as an American.

I’m sure the soldiers in the Continental Army were also surprised at how many ‘loyal subjects’ there were who did NOT support their cause for Freedom and Independence. I’m sure they asked themselves how it was possible that anyone couldn’t see the absolute insults to personal dignities the British Crown was imposing on their own citizens/subjects. To one man, it was merely Common Sense that the Colonies should divorce themselves from their mother country. And, as Mr. Paine likely learned, common sense is not as common as it should be, equally so in the 18th century as the 21st.

The tolls of this war extend beyond lost savings accounts and broken supply chains. It is exacting a cost on a much more intimate and personal level.

My recommendation is to pick a day, Sunday perhaps, to completely disconnect from the electronic world; leave your phone at home, bake bread, walk your dog, grab a coffee and read a physical book. The battlefield is your mind, don’t cede an inch of it.

Fort Sumter In Arizona

By R Altomare, Founder of BreathEasy
The Patriot’s Tool of Non Compliance
Download it today!
 

When looking at the big picture of our ongoing national crisis, the fight for a fair election in the State of Arizona is strikingly similar to South Carolina’s ejection of Federal forces from Fort Sumter in 1860. Let me explain:

In case your high school history class was more than a few years ago, six days after he removed his State from the American Republic’s contract (the US Constitution) in 1860, the Governor of South Carolina enforced the sovereignty of his nation and removed American federal forces from a South Carolinian fort when they refused to withdraw from the (now foreign) territory of South Carolina. After several refused requests, the SC governor was forced to open fire on the federal forces to enforce his demand.  This action was marked (even at the time and not just through history’s lens!) as the first shots fired in the First American Civil War. We are seeing the same in Arizona, but merely of a different form.

I have long held that the United States is in the midst of its Second American Civil War and, while no shots have been (formally) fired between State and Federal forces, we have engaged the enemy in an increasing number of legal, informational and memetic skirmishes over the last 6 years nonetheless. And we are winning.

And it is the protracted legal fight for fair elections in Arizona that mark a formalization of hostilities against corrupt transnational forces who have seized control of this southwestern State which make it stand out as our generation’s Fort Sumter moment. No longer are corrupted elections a thing of whispered conspiracy theories. As of this writing three counties have ‘delayed’ the certification of their elections and, by so doing, have stymied our enemies’ steal of yet another State.

Our enemies have already declared defeat in Florida and they cannot brook another Florida in Arizona. They will fight like the cornered animals they are. So STOP being surprised and depressed when these animals fight to maintain their position of privilege! Expect the cur to snap at you and you’ll never lose a finger.

When (not if) the Kari Lake election win is finalized (however it may happen), an alliance of States will form by default.  Arizona, Texas and Florida will form the backbone of formalized, State-Level resistance to the American Federal Empire.  And, as this backbone forms and solidifies, more States will join the cause. There is no need to secede when 45 of 50 States speak their values in unison!

From where I sit, I see a brushfire of Liberty spreading on two different levels.

  • First, at the county level. One by one, individual Arizonan Counties are refusing to certify a known-corrupted election. They have seen the reports that greater than 60% of vote machines had problems on election day. These brave county officials have learned the lesson of stolen elections.  As counties decide to ‘delay’ certification of a questionable election, more will follow. Soon, only Maricopa County itself will be the only county invested in their steal of the will of the people.
  • Secondly, on the State level. Just like the small rural counties in Arizona, Florida was the vanguard to prioritize election integrity and actually put teeth in its laws. Hard work by many grassroots organizations all throughout Florida have pushed accountability and actual laws to shore up voter integrity in the State. Later, Florida was joined by Texas and soon, Arizona will join this Alliance against Evil and corruption.

Friends, as I wrote in a previous essay, our victory is assured. The hard work is being done, our neighbors’ eyes have been opened and now we are really in the mop up phase of the Second American Civil War.

The cynics in our ranks would point to the ‘loss’ in Pennsylvania as evidence we are losing our country.  WRONG! Sloth was the very best candidate they could come up with! This is an unmitigated win because the American Communists were forced to cheat to levels so overwhelming to drag their brain damaged candidate across the finish line that the steal wasn’t even subtle at all.  Did you know that over 50% of Sloth’s votes were mailed in? Our enemies in Pennsylvania won a skirmish only. I predict Sloth’s ‘win’ won’t survive 6 months.

How can I be so certain of Kari Lake’s win and a reversal or similar invalidation of the Pennsylvania ‘election?’ Because lies are forever and people are looking for them.  The evidence already exists to completely invalidate these ‘elections’ and the American public is fully aware of the theft of their vote.

We are in uncharted waters, friends. But that doesn’t mean we don’t have the wind at our backs and a divine navigator at the helm.

Does Lance Armstrong Have the Solution to Fair Elections? 

 Written by: R. Altomare, Founder BreathEasy App
 

Serious question: Has Ashton Kutcher come out with a new ‘Punked’ show aimed at Conservative Voters that I haven’t heard of? Does Lucy Van Pelt now intern for Ronna McDaniel?  

Controlled opposition shills such as Ben Shapiro tell us we need better candidates to win elections.  Our so-called ‘elected’ officials tell us to ‘vote harder’ next time. This is naïve at best and absolute gaslighting at worst.  They are asking Conservatives to essentially “bring a vote to a cheat fight.” I will no longer participate in good faith in a contest where cheating is occurring. You know and I know that Sloth did not beat out Dr. Oz for the US Senate in Pennsylvania (on what planet did you think that sentence would ever be spoken?). 

Oh, And Spare Us Your ‘Analysis’ 

When I see talking heads and other propagandists talking at us, their so-called ‘analysis’ tries to explain to us plebes “what went wrong.” But it is the framing of their questions that reveals the lie. They ask, “Why didn’t Republicans perform as expected?”  But this implies that the failure was somehow our fault (e.g. bad candidates or not voting hard enough).  

Here’s what you’ll never hear: “How in the hell did Democrats win with enthusiasm on the Right rivaled only by the Left’s rank criminality?” or “How is it possible that candidates who couldn’t fill a high school gym won so overwhelmingly…again?” This is the tell, patriot. They cheated, they KNOW they cheated, and this is why they frame their rhetoric the way they do. 

Give us your over-taxed, over-regulated, your deplorables yearning to breathe free. 

Here’s what we know: It simply does not matter how many voters participate when your enemy counts the votes.  ‘Voting harder’ is not a strategy to win a fixed game. ‘Better candidates’ don’t win elections (just ask Dr. Oz how that worked in his rigged contest against Sloth).  

One solution by Governor DeSantis was the implementation of a variety of election integrity measures which appears to have had great success. This, combined with refugees from California and New York, culminated in a successful election. How many accusations of cheating have you seen coming out of Florida as compared to Arizona? 

Others such as Gab CEO, Andrew Torba, agree with my own thinking that we must create a parallel everything to combat the rigged system. It is the ultimate nullification. Who cares if Alameda, Portland or Chicago try to shutter your business when you are mobbed by Patriots throwing money at you when you ask for help? BreathEasy calls this a “BUYCOTT.” Talk about “power to the people…” 

But isn’t there a third choice? If the Communists insist on cheating, their cheating removes any requirement for us to abide by the rules of the contest also. Their cheating has given us permission to join them in the cheat. And it is this choice that goes completely uncommented upon by ANY on the Right. If we truly want to wrest control from our rulers, shouldn’t we turn our elections into a ‘may the best cheater win’ scenario and beat them at their own game? 

How to Create A Level Playing Field – The Lance Armstrong Stratagem 

In an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2013, Lance Armstrong admitted to doping to win the Tour de France seven times. While his admission sent the world into a tizzy of scandal and comeuppance, Armstrong made two interesting statements that were completely uncommented upon by anyone.   

Let’s see if you see now what I saw then: 

“…Winfrey asked Armstrong whether his actions felt wrong, or whether he felt bad or whether they even felt like cheating. His answer to each of those questions: “No.” 

“I viewed it as a level playing field,” he said. 

And this gem: 

“…He also said he didn’t believe that it was possible to win seven titles without using drugs “in that culture.”” 

Do you see it?  

Lance implied that he was not the only athlete cheating. He asserted that in order to have a chance of winning at all, doping was absolutely required.  It was the “culture” of the Tour de France that required doping in order to be competitive at all. All poor Lance did was accept the premise. 

Therefore, if we apply Armstrong’s choice to the criminally compromised elections of the American Empire, there is an argument that says, if you want to win a contest where your adversary cheats, you must join the criminals in their criminality. This, at least, would ‘level the playing field’ and turn the contest into a ‘may the best cheater win’ scenario. This solution states that we MUST cheat if we are to continue to play the game. 

Many of my brethren on the Right will (and should) instinctively wince at such a suggestion. They would rightfully say, “cheating will make us no better than criminals” and “two wrongs don’t make a right.”  

My cynical follow up to this would be: Sure, but how bad do you want to win? 

Let’s look at why Lance made the choice he made.  Lance claimed he doped because of his 

“… ruthless desire to win”  

Would we say that conservatives have a ‘ruthless desire to win?’ I think it’s obvious we have a STRONG desire to win, sure. You might even say we have a RIGHTEOUS desire to win.  But we most definitely do not have a RUTHLESS desire to win.  

However, the Communists unfortunately do. You and I both know that stripped of their power and influence, our enemies would find it mighty hard to get their (our!) chauffeured limos and private jets if they didn’t feel entitled to leverage any and every tool at their disposal to keep the shrimp cocktail flowing. It’s not like that Gender Studies degree from Vasser qualifies them for anything other than flipping burgers and organizing riots. 

But here is where we find the flaw in Lance’s self-justification. His desire to ‘win’ at any cost (which included his honor) was what forced him to compromise his values. Looking from the outside in, the more honor-preserving choice for Lance might have been to simply not participate in a compromised contest.  

So am I in favor of cheating harder than our Communist enemies? No. Above all else, we must maintain our honor and our right to hold our head up high. Our wins must be airtight. However, I am certainly NOT in favor of holding our head up high enough for it to be lopped off by the mob during our own American Reign of Terror that is most assuredly likely with this crop of latter day Robespierres. 

But in a contest that is irreparably corrupted, there is no valid argument to continue to compete. 

Our solution lies in pouring gas on what Governor DeSantis has recently merely toyed with. The 10th Amendment is, by a mile, the strongest of the Amendments contained within the American Constitution. It is also the small exhaust port on the Empire’s Election Fraud Space Station. Dare I say it is the BreathEasy solution implemented at the State level? 

For those newcomers to Constitutional thinking, the 10th Amendment states quite simply: 

“The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” 

We have seen that criminals absolutely rely on the centralization of power within the Executive Branch to maintain their cheat. The 10th Amendment is the Patriot Governors’ tool to nullify federal criminality, illegal mandates or other usurpations and insults to a Free People.  

Yes, they will rage and they will whine. They will call it a Constitutional Crisis and defend their central authoritarianism even if it means ruling over ashes afterwards. They will also demonstrate their belief that ‘might makes right.’  

But the Free States of America will summarily ignore all of it.  Every State in this Union of American States is a sovereign nation unto itself. We must relearn the notion of American ‘dual sovereignty.’ Our solution is not held in one election or a single savior individual. Our solution is generational and will take time until their criminality crumbles into a heap and nothing is left of it except for a footnote in a far-future history book and the echoes of long dead harpies. 

We have our solution; in fact, we always did. We know that the Communists cannot and will not allow a fair election. It is time to leverage the 10th Amendment to its fullest expression and declare in one voice that we are not mere subdivisions of a federal empire. We are States, sovereign nations in our own right. 

And when these newly minted ‘leaders’ attempt to exercise stolen authority, it will be met with a deafening indifference as we live our lives within our State borders and watch as our crops and our children take root and grow to feed our future, rooted in republican government, a Constitutional Rule of Law and a cherishing of Individual Liberty.

Force Our Enemies to Live Their Hypocrisy – A Practical Guide

Friends,

Last week, I ran across an article by some talking head/propagandist who told us that Latin Americans, by their very nature, are racists. Yup! I couldn’t believe it either. It came about when they attempted to cover for the LA City Council’s recent (secretly recorded) racist remarks by attributing their racism to “latinidad.” 

In case you hadn’t yet heard on your local Big Brother Outlet, several LA City Council members have resigned when their objectively racist remarks during an official meeting with Labor were secretly recorded (likely) by the very people they were meeting and then leaked online. 

Now, for my readers who do not speak Spanish, “latinidad” basically translates to “Latin-ocity” or “Latin-itude.” “Latinidad,” just like it’s English approximations, sounds just as invented in Spanish as it does in English. It’s a made-up word that roughly translates to ‘all things Latino.’ 

In the article that I ran across the other day (and I DO apologize that I can’t find it again), the writer was trying to downplay the abject racism that these elected officials displayed while conducting official business by attributing their racism to “Latinidad.” In other words, this propagandist tried to play off racism by his tribe by saying, “that’s just Latinos being Latinos.”  Next thing we’re going to hear is, “Puerto Ricans are ‘passionate.’”

So, if you’re following along, this guy just painted an entire hemisphere as unreconstructed, uncivilized racists who are incapable of functioning in a modern society without letting their inner bigot-flag fly. If there were a broader brush with which to paint a people, I can’t imagine it.  The giant irony here is that this ‘pundit’ exposed and confirmed his own “unconscious bias” when he demonstrated that racist birds DO flock together. 

So, taking this crypto-racist seriously, why not take his idiotic statement and run with it? Stop ignoring their obvious spin and force them to embrace it and everything it implies.  By his own statement, he claims every Latino is racist. And because this is a de facto disqualifier for participation in civilized society, did he just inadvertently disqualify every Latino from ever holding public office ever again?

His statement about latinidad was a throwaway statement never meant to be taken seriously or remembered; he had to say something to protect his tribe.  But instead of letting his statement drift away and be forgotten like so much smoke in a mild breeze, we should start holding these zealots accountable for their statements and force them to LIVE their spin.

Here’s what I mean:

During the next selection election in Los Angeles, why not ask the Democrat Latino candidate, “it’s been said that all Latinos are racist. How will you overcome your racism and represent ALL Angelenos?”  When they huff and puff and refuse to ‘dignify your question with a response,’ remind them of the LA City Council’s episode of official, casual racism now on display. Force them to confront the hypocrisy of their tribe and ball them up in knots as they try to extricate themselves. Don’t forget to laugh at them, the comedy writes itself.

And in case you thought democrats’ racism was limited to just Los Angeles elected officials, let me remind you of a speech in 2001 where Justice Soto-Mayor said,

“…Justice O’Connor has often been cited as saying that a wise old man and wise old woman will reach the same conclusion in deciding cases…I am also not so sure that I agree with the statement…”

“…I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life [emphasis mine].”

Notice that where former Justice O’Connor explicitly stated the equal capability of both men and women, Soto-Mayor disagreed with the premise!  Instead, she inserted race into a non-racial discussion and said that “Latinos” are inherently ‘better.’  Not only did she explicitly claim that a Latino woman, by virtue of her race, would render a better judgment, but she is apparently casting herself in the role of this ‘wise Latina.’

My God, the hubris. Is it any wonder these people thought they could mandate that the entire world to wear a worthless surgical mask slave muzzle at their local Piggly Wiggly? This is how these people think.

So, how do we make Soto-Mayor live and defend her own stupid claim?

Soto – Mayor should be publicly and loudly asked this question at every possible occasion: “How can you judge ANY case or pretend to be impartial if you are a known racist?”

Or here’s another one, “Can you point to any decisions where your ‘latinidad’ produced a better decision than your white or male counterparts?”

Don’t forget: these aren’t our definitions; these aren’t our rules. These are the definitions that our enemies have offered themselves. We must force them to defend their hypocrisy. And as you’ve seen in recent years, they twist themselves into Gordian Knots defending the indefensible, and it’s hilarious!

Here’s another case illustrative of the larger point:

During her confirmation hearing for SCOTUS earlier this year, Katanji-Brown was asked and couldn’t answer what a woman was. In spite of the fact that she, herself, was equipped with the requisite equipment indicative of the gender, she was still unable to define herself.  She answered by saying that she “wasn’t a biologist.”

Who knew?! Who knew that one needed a bachelor’s degree in the natural sciences to figure out which clothing department at Target to buy its clothes (you know she ain’t no Walmart grrrl)!

Now you and I both know that her stupid answer was nothing more than a dodge to avoid the wrath of the Alphabet People.  But to this I say, “fine! Good!” We now have a SCOTUS justice who testified that she is so ignorant of…of….geeze, I can’t even describe how BASIC the information is that she claims ignorance of.  Katanji-Brown claims ignorance of something so basic that 3-year-olds have figured it out. 

To be honest, I think the confirmation committee really missed an opportunity here to force her to live her non-truth.  Some great follow up questions could have been,

“OK, I understand that you would like to avoid answering questions so broad and expansive that you risk offending someone; that is very polite of you.  So, let me ask you: Are YOU a woman? Are there any justices on the Court now that you suspect of being a woman?”

The irony here is that we, again, have their own words to declare their stupidity and obtuseness. We aren’t ascribing or speculating at all. Our future dismissal of literally any opinion she renders will be answered with, “yeah, but can she tell me what a woman is?” as we laugh at her.

Again, to this I say, “fine!”  Why? Because she has absolutely disqualified herself from rendering ANY opinion at all, ever, inside the courtroom or out, that has even the slightest sexual component. 

These justices give interviews, so why don’t we take it upon ourselves to make sure we make it through the call screener with the Communist-friendly (and obviously falsely premised) question, “You are so brave! What’s it like to be the first POC on the court?” and then, when you make it on the air, you instead ask, “I loved how you handled your confirmation hearings! But how do you know you’re not a man?”

These people not only should be mocked, but they should be mocked mercilessly, publicly and at every opportunity. These animals and anti-civilization zealots absolutely seek the limelight and adoration of their tribe. We should infiltrate that tribe (you know, like the K-FBI-GB infiltrates domestic terrorist groups that they themselves create) and cause absolute havoc.  The bonus here is that because every value they have, every special sub-group that exists for them (infinitely sub-divided to create specialness out of people who are uniquely not special at all), when they attempt to use logical gymnastics to defend the indefensible, they will invariably insult or sleight some other sub-group. This is how internecine warfare is fostered; blow on that smoldering ember.

We are at war and going on the offense is NEVER a bad idea. No army has ever won a war playing defense. These people are absolutely ripe for mockery and ego deflation. Let’s help that along, shall we?

With You In The Fight,

American Communists In Favor of Small Government!

There’s just something about Leftists that, if they weren’t so dangerous, they’d be hilarious.
The one defining characteristic all woke Leftists share is their unending narcissism that (counter-intuitively) never leads to any sort of introspection or self-awareness. How is that even possible? How can these earnestly blindered individuals gaze into Narcissus’s’ mirrored lake and rejoice in their glorious wokeness, yet never even suspect that they might have been lied to and turned into a useful idiot by truly evil men?
Now, don’t get me wrong. I’m not mocking fools for being fooled. I am mocking them for NEVER questioning their certainty. We see an unending list of Communist agitators masquerading as politicians who pervert laws and regulations in the sorry hope of ensnaring Conservatives. But in spite of Leftist politicians’ fancy suits, big words and scary regulations, all I TRULY see is Wiley E. Coyote trying to wrangle the Road Runner with some new contraption doomed to fail. Despite his best efforts and seemingly unending credit line with Acme, every snare Wiley sets not only fails, but backfires and boomerangs on the poor Mr. Coyote in spectacular fashion. And the same goes for the Communists currently ‘in power.’
As best I can tell, I think Acme has begun marketing their contraptions to the Communists now holding office, These poor fools are always coming out with some new fangled regulation, agency or law that they are assured will finally lead them to ultimate power and hegemony. But, just like Wiley, when they eagerly open the crate of their new toy in a doomed effort to lasso Liberty and bring the Human Spirit to heel, it fails spectacularly and, as we’ve seen in recent years, boomerangs on them only multiplying their failure.
Consider the election of 2016. If you remember, the Democrat Primary became a race between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton. But Bernie wasn’t in the club and Hillary bribed ‘the man of the people’ with (at least) a house in the Hamptons.
Now with Bernie out and the “Bernie Bros” forced (forced!) to support the Demo(n)crat Hillary, Trump wiped the floor with her and beat her easily. The utter irony of Hillary’s loss was that it was her own corruption that lost it for her. Bernie would have beaten Trump. Talk about a boomerang. Not only did she lose the election, but she has been playing defense ever since.
And it’s happening again. In an effort by the Left to dunk on an obviously competent Florida administration in the aftermath of a Hurricane, they only dunk on themselves for anyone who’s mildly paying attention.
Consider where the Communist Wiley Coyotes have currently maneuvered themselves over the last several years: When Hillary removed the political version of Pete Seeger and hero, Bernie Sanders, from contention, their corruption ushered in the single most popular President since George Washington. Ouch!
This in turn led to an unmitigated rout of the Deep State, Energy Independence, an expansion of the middle class, a reduction of the Administrative State and a Conservative Supreme Court, among many other things.
Winning! (h/t Charlie Sheen)
Further, the election of their sworn enemy and the results he produced also led to a massive awakening of the population to their evil at the least opportune moment possible: the Information Age, and this awakening has been accompanied with the awakened citizenry taking up the gauntlet that DJT provided and has taken the fight (decisively) to the enemy. Talk about bad luck!
Which brings us to present day. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, Free Florida was hit by the powerful and devastating, Hurricane Ian, recently and our 5th Column dutifully lined up to hurl accusations of incompetence at America’s Governor, Ron DeSantis. But of course we all knew they would do that, so that’s not the story here. What the real story is, is how their own corruption boomerangs on the Communists and only serves to weaken their own cause.
So again, the Communists’ corruption is ultimately leading to their own destruction, just as it did in 2016. They have colluded and selected ‘Joe Biden’ to be their patsy so they may wield power behind the throne to enslave the world. But in their desire for total control, they never considered that putting forward a dementia patient only emphasizes through contrast the absolute competence of the governors of Texas and Florida. This inescapable comparison only FAVORS federalism and the primacy of the State over the Federal.
By their corruption, they have made the argument implicitly that LOCAL government is superior to CENTRAL government. Like I said, if they weren’t so dangerous, these fools would be hilarious.
And now we’re back to the Wiley E. Coyote boomerang effect. In their desire to centralize power into a King-President, they have inadvertently made the argument for smaller government and a State-centric focus. These fools believed that in order to create centralized power, they needed to install an actual dementia patient. Fools leading fools.
All I can say now, as they make the slow realization that they have utterly destroyed their movement once and for all is, “meep meep.”

It’s Time to Recognize the Elite’s Excellent Leadership

It’s time we recognize and accept who is really in charge. It’s about time we get on board with the current ‘leadership’ and I can’t think of a better time than NOW to do it.
 
Our betters have demonstrated through their actions that they know what’s best, they have identified which laws are ‘must follow’ laws and which laws are optional. Too long has their example been ignored by we, the great unwashed.And kudos to Governors Abbot and DeSantis for also accepting the Communists’ proper leadership and example.

 
In case you’ve been living under a rock for the last couple of months, Governor Abbot took his cue from President Brandon and began shipping illegals present within Texas’ borders into the interior of the country; an act that was exactly what the Brandon regime had been doing for months if not his entire ‘presidency.’
I applaud Governor Abbot in recognizing the wisdom of simply accepting that the unlawful entry into the country should not only be ignored, but facilitated and expanded with free plane tickets to every corner of our fruited plains. By Governor Abbott’s actions, now we truly are ‘all in this together.’
 

Not to be outdone in seeking the favor of President Brandon, America’s Governor, Governor DeSantis followed suit and similarly began shipping sanctuary seekers directly to self – declared sanctuary cities of NYC and Martha’s Vineyard. It seems that Governors Abbot and DeSantis have decided to take the Goose/Gander theory and put it into action.Surely, now, boons and laurels from the Capitol must begin to shower upon our once recalcitrant governors!


Now, the Hidey/Hoe administration should be ecstatic that two of the most conservative (and popular) leaders in the country have gotten onboard the Communist Reset Train by employing the exact same resettlement plan that was instituted at the federal level.But I wonder, have we missed previous opportunities? Have we misinterpreted brave leadership by the Communists within our country for simple rank hypocrisy?Consider just a few short years ago when Speaker Pelosi demonstrated her brave leadership when, by her actions, she summarily declared the pandemic over and all masking and business closures were hereby cancelled and rescinded.What? You don’t remember that? If you don’t remember, that’s understandable since it was inexplicably buried by the fringe media (NBC, CBS, CNN and ABC). So, let me remind you of what happened.Two years ago, almost to the day on September 7, 2020, after our beneficent ‘leaders’ (and certainly not per se criminals, at all) decided to halt the engine of the world, Nancy Pelosi decided that this was not necessary at all! 
 
In order to rescind this lockdown, she made a ‘public’ and brave demonstration of the safety of walking around maskless and ignoring her own proclamations by making a special hair appointment with a salon that was shuttered by the knee-jerk (but now, I see, fully reasonable) mandates to close down. This decision was bravery in action and I was humbled and proud in that moment to be an American. Hero, thy name is Nancy.
But! Our conservative leaders failed us in that moment!
Instead of following Pelosi’s lead, instead of following her brave leadership by opening all businesses, conservative leaders across the nation were ‘stuck on stupid’ (h/t General Schwarzkopf) and continued as if the Speaker had NOT just declared the mandates unnecessary!WOE to the masses suffering under such blind conservative leadership!

All caught up? Great.

Recently, the Florida Governor, Ron DeSantis decided to help Sanctuary Cities ‘live their truth’ by transporting approximately 50 ‘sanctuary seekers’ directly to Martha’s Vineyard and the personal homes of the Federal Empire’s royal courtiers.But it now appears that perhaps Governor DeSantis may have mis-stepped or misinterpreted the intent of our betters. Instead of the self-declared Sanctuary City of Martha’s Vineyard welcoming these huddled masses yearning for a free Obama phone, the city ‘deported’ these pawns in the space of 48 hours.

(I’m still struggling with understanding when the term of art changes from ‘transported’ and ‘evicted’ to ‘trafficked’)

And, coincidence of coincidences, it appears that the residents of Martha’s Vineyard took their cue from another Democrat, President Roosevelt, when they ripped these people from the welcoming bosom or their tiny island and moved these undocumented workers (or as one Martha’s Vineyard resident put it, “garbage”) under military escort to an internment camp on a military base on Cape Cod. No word yet if American citizens of Japanese descent were also present. So, yet again, we have been provided not only permission to forcibly remove people inside the country, but we also have an example to follow, provided to us by those brave Americans on Martha’s Vineyard.Governors Abbot, DeSantis and other leaders now have direct and implicit permission to leverage military force to protect our borders, and we have the Brandon regime and its sycophants to thank for this glorious example. Who knew there was such an America First sentiment in the deepest Blue enclaves of our country?Will the conservative Governors of our great nation now take Massachusetts’ example to heart and do what the Martha’s Vintners have already determined MUST be done? The American Revolution was born in Massachusetts and it appears history is repeating itself. The Martha’s Vintners are leading the way on not only the importance of legal immigration but also how to deal with illegal immigration.If anyone reading this essay has the opportunity, I call on you to present this piece to our leaders as evidence that
 
We the People DEMAND that they follow the example of the fine people of Massachusetts and the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi.

Let’s Go Brandon!

An Open Letter to the J6 POWs

My fellow patriot, 

Many years ago, the military taught me techniques to help me survive captivity as a POW. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever contemplate that I would later rely upon those skills to maintain my sanity in my own country. If the last couple years tells us anything, it appears the world is saying to all of us, “Hold my beer…” 

Your incarceration now, during the second American Revolution, grants you the unofficial status of POW. Because of this, I want to take this opportunity to provide what help I can to help you survive your POW status and return home alive and with honor.  

These techniques are not meant to argue your case to morons or to ‘tech your jailers a lesson.’ Instead, they are meant to do one thing and one thing only: carve out a small piece of control for yourself and expand your radius of freedom, even as a prisoner. Both things will assist you in keeping your spirits up and hope alive until such a time that we can get you freed.

Rule #1: Your enemy is not your prison guard 

guard1

Your enemy isn’t your jailer. Neither is Nancy Pelosi or that ignoramus in a mini-skirt, AOC. Your enemy is also not any of the other random communists or colluding and corrupt federal agencies whose actions caused you to be where you are for the moment. 

Your true enemy now is hopelessness. Learn this. Your isolation starves you of the wins and good news that our Cause is achieving on a near-regular basis. How can you maintain your spirits if you are kept in the dark about the successes our Cause achieves and your actions demonstrate? We on the outside watch the news, scan social media or communicate with friends and neighbors to maintain our collective fiction that we are ‘in the know’ and informed. But your current situation doesn’t even allow that.

To this I say: Let your Patriot brothers and sisters handle these criminals from outside the prison for you. Trust that we, on the other side of your prison’s walls, are tirelessly working to obtain your freedom and bring the true criminals to justice; Winter is Coming. But for now, all we need from you is to survive your captivity. The only thing that can turn your temporary situation into a permanent one is if you allow hopelessness to convince you to do something that is irreversible. You have an entire country supporting you, the only problem is that you can’t see it from where you sit now. That doesn’t mean we aren’t here and things aren’t happening! Your trust will feed your spirit and keep hopelessness at bay.

Just as important: Be absolutely confident that what is happening to you now is temporary and will end. Once it is over, you will have the mother of all lawsuits on your hands with an army of Liberty-loving lawyers absolutely salivating to take your case. Kyle Rittenhouse just settled with The View for over $20 million for how those harpies slandered him.  You situation will be no different. Your status as a POW of the Second American Revolution is illegal and temporary. The game now is to simply outlast your jailers to the finish line. Every day you stay in the fight is one more day you win. You are not forgotten. 

Rule #2: Make your jailers work for your compliance 

guard2

Stated another way, beating your ass to force your compliance takes physical effort on their part. Forcing your jailer to tire himself out to enforce his rules is a sneaky and counter-intuitive way to create more freedom for yourself. 

Remember, people are lazy, and your jailers are no exception. You can turn that laziness to your advantage. Your jailers will always look for a way to make their own jobs easier or take less effort. They manhandle you out of your cell today in the hopes that you will comply immediately with their orders tomorrow. 

They do this because the more compliant (hopeless) a prisoner that you are, the easier you are for them to manage.  So instead of allowing them to train you into compliance using beatings and abuse, your goal should be to train them. It’s not hard to do, it just takes a little gumption.

Here’s how:

  • When they tell you to stand up, make it a challenge to yourself to be the last person to stand.
  • When they tell you to sit down, make it a challenge to yourself to be the last person to sit.
  • When they order you out of your cell, be slow to respond. 

Every second you delay (and we are measuring in seconds) is one more second of freedom you carve out for yourself. THIS is how we measure success in a POW situation, and this is how we take control and create agency for ourselves. The POWs from the USS Pueblo capture in 1968 spoke extensively about how important it was to take even just a little bit of control from the North Koreans for themselves through these techniques.

Count the seconds until your captors come to beat you into compliance; keep score! Here’s the trick though: Once they come to beat you, test to see how much abuse you can absorb. And once you have absorbed as much as you can, you now have permission to comply. The contest is with yourself, not your jailer. Can you increase the seconds over time that it takes before they respond to your slow compliance?  Every second that you quietly defy their orders is an extra second of freedom.

The point here is not to openly defy their orders and scream “NO!” to every demand they make. That is pointless resistance and only earns you a beating with no upside. Instead, the point is to force them to expend their own personal energy to force your compliance and tire them out. Over time, their natural inclination to be lazy will eventually override their desire to ‘do a good job’ and it will be at that moment that YOU will be in charge. Even as a prisoner, you will be in control and control equals sanity.You are not forgotten. 

Rule #3:  Learn the power of saying ‘no’ to special favors 

the model prisoner

Remember how your parents enticed you with ice cream to get you to eat your vegetables? Imagine the power you could wield as a 5-year-old if you told your parents that their ice cream didn’t interest you anymore. They would be utterly powerless to bribe you to eat your broccoli and would have to come up with some new way to control your actions. Your jailers are no different.

Your jailers’ power over you resides exclusively in their power to withhold comfort or inflict suffering. That’s it. If you can recognize these slim incentives for what they are, a means to obtain your compliance, you can find power in refusing them.

Generally speaking, a normal person will do almost anything to return to their previous state of safety and comfort when knocked outside of it. This can be a significant weakness in their ability resist and stay sane. They will be tempted to comply with any demand for just a whiff of their old normal life; a can of coke, a cigarette, a piece of candy, sunshine on their face. If a prisoner’s compliance can be bought so cheaply, this makes him a model prisoner.

But if you can undercut their ability to offer you positive incentives (such as a can of coke or a phone call with a loved one), they are left with ONLY negative incentives. But we’ve already discussed how you can handle those. And once you become adept at these techniques, you may even be able to bargain for your compliance.

“I would be happy to comply with your order, but I’m very thirsty, can you get me a coke?” 

“I would be happy to accept your offer to speak with my lawyer, but only if the other POWs can speak with their lawyers” 

Do you see now how, when applying these techniques together, you become incredibly powerful, even as a prisoner of war?You are not forgotten. 

Rule #4: Find Little Wins and Celebrate Them 

Remember, you are fighting on a completely different battlefield than you have ever experienced before; You are fighting on the battlefield of hope. Your aim is to survive your captivity with honor. Your goal is not to simply score points against morons with single-digit IQs. 

The way you capture ground on the battlefield of Hope is that you must find and celebrate the “Little Wins” you have during your resistance using the techniques above.

When you defy your jailers in little ways, these small acts certainly don’t win the war against the Globalist Deep State or buy your freedom. Remember, you are imprisoned for political reasons, not criminal ones. Being a good little prisoner will not buy your way out. So instead, you must resist and celebrate the Little Wins as you go to keep you from losing hope and keep your sanity. 

So what do “Little Wins” look like?  Simple: If a guard orders you to stand on the red spot on the floor, you will employ rule #2 above and stand literally anywhere but exactly where he tells you to stand. When you do this, in your mind, celebrate that act of defiance! For every second you are NOT on that red spot, you are winning. Over time, you make a point of moving farther and farther away from that red spot until you aren’t complying at all with their orders.

If a guard orders you to raise your hands above you head, maybe you raise your hands just up to your shoulders. For every second that your hands are NOT above your head, you are winning; celebrate that victory!

And, in all these examples if, by your non-compliance, you force your jailer to come over to you and physically force you into compliance, you are forcing them to expend their own energy and enforce their own rules (see rule 2). That is another win.  Trust me, ‘pretty soon, you’re going to get tired of all that winning.’

The added benefit of these small acts of sanity-preserving defiance is that it forces your jailer to do his job, a job that he would much rather be easier. Remember, a hopeless prisoner is a compliant prisoner and that’s all he wants; for you to do what you’re told. If you are able to defy his orders, even a little bit, you force him to choose: “Do I enforce the order to the letter, or do I let it slide?”  Force his natural laziness to make that decision for him.

This is the exact position you want to be in because by forcing him to make this choice, YOU are now in control, regardless of whether you have shackles on your wrists or not. YOU have forced him to make a choice and if he chooses the lazy route (they all eventually do), then you have just created MORE freedom for yourself than you would have had if you had simply complied mindlessly.

Trust me; you have MUCH more power than you realize.You are not forgotten 

Rule #5: Forgive Yourself 

Patriot, if by some miracle you read this letter, you may be thinking to yourself, 

“These techniques are fine, but I’ve complied so much already that it would look weird if I started defying their orders now. It just won’t matter.” 

Wrong!

The fact that you were ill-equipped to resist your captors before you read this letter is perfectly understandable. Until now, you may have been complying with your jailers’ orders because that’s what you were ‘supposed’ to do. You may have been complying with your jailers’ demands in the hopes that it might earn you some measure of comfort or release.

This is false thinking. Our country is experiencing a new kind of Revolution, but it is a revolution, nonetheless. Your current/temporary situation is so far off the map that the old rules that we all grew up with simply do not apply to your situation. Embrace that knowledge. You are not a criminal in jail awaiting trial, no matter how they dress you up. You are a political prisoner held incommunicado by criminals attempting to hide their own crimes. 

You are not just a prisoner, you are a Prisoner of War.  Start acting like it.  You have a duty to resist your captors.

When you falter in your resistance, and you will falter, you must forgive your temporary failure, and renew your spirit of resistance. Remember, you are playing the long game here and your job is to outlast your captor. You are running a marathon, not a sprint. Forgive your momentary compliance as necessary and move on. That’s old shit. In all cases for the rules outlined above, you have permission as a prisoner of war to comply when it is necessary to your survival or severe bodily injury. Only you can judge where that line is and nobody has the right to second guess where your line is.

Yes, you may feel guilty for yielding to a demand by a mouth-breathing jailer. This is natural, this is normal. We all feel weak or intimidated from time to time. But I can speak for everyone with similar training that they will not think less of you for your temporary compliance. And those who have never been through this very intense training? They have no idea what you’re experiencing and are not qualified to comment; ignore them. You are not forgotten  

Patriot, it is my sincerest hope that this letter reaches you, or perhaps only its ideas. You are undergoing an unprecedented assault on your rights as a Free American. You are not alone in your torment nor is your plight forgotten. The Cause endures outside of your sight and we are experiencing significant wins, whether you hear about them or not. We can’t know how much longer the struggle will last, but the tide is turning in our favor. And as the tide washes away the flotsam and jetsam of the evil holding you now, you will be freed.

Remember, the techniques that I have given you above revolve around the central point that resistance means never volunteering to comply with orders or rules. As a POW, the rules your captors lay down only exist insofar as they can be enforced. Ignore them at all other times.

The Pendulum

We were all lied to.

The lie, of course, was that Americans are Free (capital ‘F’). Those on the Right have been mildly to acutely aware of this lie for many decades now. But with the overturning of Roe v. Wade, the lie was finally revealed to our fellow citizens on the Left as well.

Lest we forget, the same authority that lied to us that Saddam had WMD in 2003 also illegally ‘mandated’ that we wear surgical masks and inject ourselves with an unapproved substance. All this was done to ‘inoculate’ us from a disease later discovered to have been manufactured by our own government. If they lied to us about WMD in Iraq and (what is now apparent) lied to us about masks and injections, might they also have lied to us about abortion? And if so, how and why?

After the Dobbs decision, the left told us that women (whatever those are) lost a right to control their own bodies. And boy, howdy, can I sympathize! As soon as we were ‘mandated’ to inject ourselves in 2021, the mythical veneer of freedom to make the most intimate of choices was unceremoniously ripped away. So, yes, over the last two years we all discovered we had no bodily autonomy or ‘right to choose,’ so casually authority made its demand on a Free people.

I’ve long held that Goodwill and Planned Parenthood share a very similar business model, but merely applied in different sectors of the economy. Consider how eerily similar the two are:

  • Both pretend to be charity organizations when in fact they are profit-motivated businesses (nothing wrong with that, but don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining),
  • Both pretend to serve the poor when in fact the poor serve them, acting as inputs/raw material for their inventory (when was the last time you saw a Tiffany lamp or Rolex Watch at Goodwill?),
  • Both take unwanted items and resell them with zero compensation to the donor (yes, you took the receipt Goodwill gave you, but have you EVER included your donation receipts on your tax return?).

Interesting, wouldn’t you say?

Now, we already know that abortion as a ‘service’ was instituted and lobbied for by Margaret Sanger in the early 20th century. Lest we forget her immortal words,

“Colored people are like human weeds and are to be exterminated.”

That’s a tough corporate legacy to forget, even 150 years later. I wonder if our fellow citizens on the Left wish to be counted among the foot soldiers of a movement that has its roots in such heinous and naked racism and bigotry? Advocating for abortion while trying to distance oneself from its origins, the apologists are essentially saying, “yes, Hitler was terrible, but he invented the Highway System.” Really?

Now, I can’t say when baby parts themselves, the inevitable by-product of the act, were recognized as a commodity to be sold, but I CAN tell you that those aborted fetuses (aka “clumps of cells”) are not simply incinerated as medical waste at the end of the workday. They are carved up, brokered and sold to any number of eager buyers (stem cell research doesn’t spring from nothing, you know).

If body parts are being brokered and sold, and Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers are the mouth of this baby parts funnel, is there possibly a financial incentive apart from the right ‘discovered’ by SCOTUS in 1973? Is it possible to estimate how big the financial incentive is to perpetuate abortion?

Let’s do a little back of the napkin math and try to figure just how big the baby parts marketplace is.

First let’s establish some basic numbers:

Yes, you read that correctly. The estimated market cap for human body parts in the United States alone is estimated to be nearly 9 billion dollars. That’s a lot of cheddar, and let’s not forget that this is limited to abortions only and not organ donors as sources. And if I were to hazard a guess, I’d bet that estimate is easily off by a factor of 3 or more. The most interesting part of that calculation? I’ve never seen it calculated before. I wonder why?

If we expand this number to include the entire world, then the numbers get truly stupid. According to worldometers.info, there were an estimated 21,800,000 abortions performed in the first six months of this year. Annualizing and multiplying this by the average cost/fetus of $13,005 we get $567,018,000,000; half a TRILLION dollars…PER YEAR. For a little perspective, the United States defense budget for 2023 is $773 Billion.

Turns out, trafficking human body parts is a pretty damn lucrative business; who knew?

I can hear the apologists’ response now:

Sure, there might be a lot of money involved, but I’m not talking about that! I’m talking about my right to choose!”

To this, I would say that YOU may not be thinking about all the money to be made, but those who rule you and suddenly deigned to ‘give you’ a right to kill life certainly are. Madam, your naivete is showing…

Look, if we take a more sophisticated view of things, we could argue that women lost their bodily autonomy at least 50 years ago and not 15 days ago. How? Because women (whatever those are) have been the victim of an unceasing propaganda campaign meant to convince them that their only value was sexual. This propaganda removed free choice and replaced it with the single choice of ‘having it all’ and packaging it within the wrapper of a ‘right.’ Do you see how this is?

A choice without consequence is not a choice.

Abortion allows a woman to ‘have it all’ and we are meant to believe that it is only the most casual coincidence that that ‘clump of cells’ is worth half a trillion dollars. Subjecting women (whatever those are) to unceasing propaganda is the epitome of the removal of choice and it was all done to turn them into nothing more than baby parts assembly lines.

Ladies, you have been lied to since you were (luckily) born. This lie taught you that sex need not have consequence and, thanks to modern techniques, you can fix your whoopsie with a quick visit to the free clinic and 500 bucks. You have been convinced to suppress your natural tendencies to create and nurture life so you may provide raw biological material to the Goodwill of international criminal enterprises with a supra-massive financial incentive at play.

Now, don’t get me wrong. I don’t blame you for believing the lies from authority. Hell, we’ve all been lied to for years. Is it so hard to believe that the same criminal organization that would lie us into war with lies such as:

  • “The Spanish sunk the Maine in Havana,” (1898)
  • “The Japanese ‘surprised’ the U.S. with their attack on Pearl Harbor,” (1941)
  • “Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone,” (1962)
  • “The North Vietnamese attacked the US Navy in the Gulf of Tonkin,” (1964)
  • “Saddam had WMD,” (2003)

might also try to convince us that the US Constitution (written when abortion was illegal nearly everywhere) somehow contains a RIGHT to extinguish life without due process? I can tell you, when at least half a trillion dollars is on the line, you can bet your ass their lie is worth it to them.

So, I hate to break it to the women among us (whatever those are), but you have never had control over your own bodies. Removing your free will to choose through lies is the removal of choice itself.

And I hope you will notice that my premise does not rely on any sort of moral judgment on the correctness of extinguishing a pre-born child. States vary on the cutoff when an abortion may or may not be accomplished. 4 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, 36 weeks. Take your pick; these are lines drawn in the sand attempting to determine the indeterminable: when does a Human life begin? You might as well ask how many angels may dance on the head of a pin.

I’d argue that merely putting a hard and fast number on it at all is an insult to life itself. But that is an essay for a different time. Suffice it to say that literally nobody is arguing that that ‘clump of cells’ you are feeding isn’t alive and anyone who thinks they know when Humanity begins is lying to you. Everyone agrees that no matter when it occurs abortion ends life.

But where is the lesson in all this?

The little bit of math we did above does nothing more than to simply illustrate the scale of the financial incentive (which is Earth shatteringly massive) for keeping abortion legal. However, it doesn’t get to the core of what many on the Left are learning right now, which was the whole point of this essay in the first place.

Our fellow citizens on the Left are now learning that NONE of us have been truly Free for a very long time, that a right given may be taken away and that centralized power (centralized in 9 robed individuals) can only be a ratchet that only turns away from Liberty and your Right to choose, literally, anything.

The loss of our personal sovereignty, no matter WHAT side of the aisle you abide, happened a long time ago.

Speaking to a dear friend the other day who was very distraught by Dobbs, I explained to her that, in practice nothing had really changed from an access-to-abortion perspective. The State where she lives allows abortion; it allowed it before the Dobbs decision and it allows it after the Dobbs decision; the time restrictions enacted by her State remained in effect.

But what I told her next truly blew her mind and rendered her utterly speechless; so counterintuitive it was that my statement appeared to be absolutely nonsensical. I told her,

The reversal of Roe v. Wade does not take rights away from you, it expands them”

Let me explain:

The fundamental piece of information many on the Left lack to properly unpack this counterintuitive statement is that the States (capital ‘S’) are not mere administrative subdivisions of a federal government (as in the Canadian model).

The British colonies on the American continent, then States, existed before the federal government; the States created the federal government via the US Constitution and was created to limit what the Federal government may do, not its citizens. All non-enumerated responsibilities for governance were retained to the States to handle as they saw fit within their own borders, as any typical nation would have. To simplify this idea, just think of the individual States as countries unto themselves who have simply entered into a treaty called the US Constitution. It really is as simple as that.

All the recent Dobbs decision did was to undo one example of the illegal centralization of power that occurred in 1973 (creating a de facto monarchical presidency in that area of the law) and returned the right of self-determination to the States. South Carolina may not dictate to California its values. This is the expansion of rights that I informed my friend of. It is an inherent Human Right to rule oneself and, relative to the abortion question, this error made in 1973 was corrected. It removed the unconstitutional precept that one State or group of States, acting through the federal government, may impose their values on any other State (again, capital ‘S’).

Stated another way, the Dobbs decision simply says that it is simply none of the federal government’s business on how a State may administer its internal affairs. That’s it.
