But at this point, after caring my whole life, I'm completely out of fucks to give.
And these latest revelations indicate to me that there was another game going on that even further separates the government and the governed. Or call it the Elite and the Plebs, or the normies and the satanic - this has gone on forever in history.
Whatever the case, I will never again allow a body to rule. And I'm done trying to convince anyone.
I believe there are two distinct species of humans on Earth. One plays by the rules and the other cheats. I don't see any resolution of that ever coming to pass, or any change of heart for those who get by through lies and leverage.
I salute the younger generations who are willing to work for it. But I am done.
I think we're all sort of screaming into the wind on here, in some sense. But we obviously WANT to effect change, otherwise we wouldn't be doing so.
Sort of a tangent, but one that's worth discussing ... Whom are we trying to reach and/or persuade, and what do we have to do to ensure that we aren't just screaming into echo chambers? (I'm thinking beyond Substack, here ...)
I feel similarly in one sense -- I've utterly stopped caring about Human civilization. I still care about many other things, but that isn't one of them.
What I do care about is stuff like this:
"I believe there are two distinct species of humans on Earth. One plays by the rules and the other cheats."
I think that you're onto something there, but that the truth is much weirder, and far more complex. Realizing that we are talking about different *species,* however, rather than mere variation among one of them ... THAT is a crucial first step that most people have not been able to take until now.
The Epstein file dump may be one big psyop, but at least we can thank it for that.
If there’s a psyop involved, I believe it’s to normalize and herd perception into neat little categories that override the vast depravity and “demonic” exercises that were happening on a widespread basis.
For me, nothing will ever return to normal. And for those of us with awareness, know what you know, and act accordingly.
Most people will not have the mental and emotional ability to fully understand the extent of the deception and utter lack of humanity.
But it is clear to me that there will be three distinct camps - those with awareness, those who have no regard for life, and those who are captured who cannot break free from their programming.
Words for me consistently fail to convey the decrepit nature of what is being revealed. I find myself reeling, but am intent on remaining aware.
This is a moment in our history that is beyond anything we have ever experienced before.
The battle lines have been drawn. Now it is time to choose where you align, or it will be chosen for you.
"If there’s a psyop involved, I believe it’s to normalize and herd perception into neat little categories that override the vast depravity and “demonic” exercises that were happening on a widespread basis."
Perhaps ... But what I'm really afraid of is that this is yet another *limited* hangout. In other words, they're showing us yet another piece of the puzzle, but still have not gotten to the big reveal (which may never transpire, unless we force their hand somehow). They've shown us something horrifying, yes, but they always show us "something." If something THIS BAD is now being shown, imagine what they are still hiding.
"But it is clear to me that there will be three distinct camps - those with awareness, those who have no regard for life, and those who are captured who cannot break free from their programming."
I COMPLETELY agree with this. 100%. Disturbingly enough, the middle camp -- those with no regard for life, or basic decency -- can be found at all socioeconomic strata, not just those with the actual power.
"This is a moment in our history that is beyond anything we have ever experienced before."
It is ... But then, so was the so-called "COVID era." I did not think that anyone could even remotely contemplate things "going back to normal" after that debacle, and yet, here we are.
I just finished reading this article. Quite relevant to the discussion here. I don't necessarily agree with the last third or so -- perhaps because he and I use very different verbiage, and approach things from a very different perspective -- but the first section especially is well worth the read:
"There is no true separation, so they may be onto something."
This is actually the part of the author's premise that I jive with the least ... I won't rehash my wheel here, but take the crass step of reposting my initial musings on the subject:
I have been giving this topic a lot of thought over the last year.
A certain percentage of us hear "freedom" and we're bought in to win. I am not sure what that percentage is, but as you correctly note, it ain't everyone.
And in fact, even those of us for whom "freedom" is a higher-order good still want >some< amount of order. No one wants chaos. No one.
It has occurred to me that what you and I and other freedom-loving people really want is to live in a condition of CONSENSUAL ORDER. We want order, but we do not want it imposed upon us by a violent monopoly. We want to be free to CHOOSE how that order is created, and by whom.
I think that right off the bat, that is better messaging than what the freedom movement has been putting out.
But then, another question has been beating in my brain: what mission would truly motivate people for generations to come? Not merely the act of escaping from nonconsensual systems, but the positive act of building something. What transcendent mission would people truly fall in love with?
I've learned that I can positively motivate people around me, and by doing this, create more freedom and trust, while chasing away the opposite. It works. However, it requires a stand, and a working toward common goals with the idea of community. We've lost that, and we've been sold on the idea that the Big Dog Top Dog Government is the way. It's not. It starts small, and grows bigger. The Big Dog is bankrupt on all levels, and we'd best go ahead and do a better thing by getting out of Dodge and finding people of common mind and circumstances we can support. In the country, you'd be amazed at how much easier this is. In the city, you might as well forget it. Immigrants from the city are often a problem in the country, but they will either sink or swim along with you. Consensual order is the key! Debunking useless fear is right up top with that too.
I think it all boils down to not knowing who we are, not having a steadfast conviction in values that define us. And we can trace this issue to generational abuse, imo. The more nurturing we are to children (not to be confused with permissive, spoiling parenting), the closer we get to a truly higher civilisation.
Lots of really good points here. I'm going to have to sit with it for a little while to formulate a really meaningful response. I think that your core premise is excellent, however ... Anarchists have a messaging problem.
Yeah, I know. Amazing how such a good and honest word has been coopted to mean something totally unrelated to its root origins … Sigh.
It also goes to show just how entrenched the love of the state is in the general population, that a word that literally means “without rulers” is now synonymous with “chaos” …
Thanks and good question. I meant recorded history. I also suspect it may have not always been the case. History is just a collection of fake news of the past.
Don't give up, completely, quite yet. Yes, I too decided to wake up and walk out. [#WTFU #WTFO] Rebuild and reimagine. It's done and I've completed the alternatives. Twenty years in the making. It's now up to the rest of us to move forward with parallel systems. Demand better and completely ignore extraction of resource based identity and ideology. We've seen the results of perpetual extraction on the human aspect of existence. It is destructive, disgusting, oppressive and evil.
You've made some great points and I've had similar arguments with many anarchists/voluntaryists to no avail.
The solution for statists and non statists is staring us in the face but it's either being ignored or people are disuaded from looking at it.
The question is, 'how do we govern ourselves equitably where we are all equal under the law so accountability is not an issue'.
The answer is our ancient common law constitution of trial by jury. That's how the people govern themselves by judging on all acts of law enforcement! So, we sort stuff out ourselves and live in alignment with natural law but in the event of a crime or a dispute, the matter is passed to the jury to conscientiously deliberate and deliver a verdict according to conscience, thereby protecting the community from crime and the individual from arbitrary punishment. It will take psychological maturity for people to realise that a nation actually governs itself through it's justice system because with the power to punish comes with it all power and that power is always invested in the people. Trial by jury is how the people exercise their sovereignty. The role of 'government', in its original form, was simply to maintain the framework by which the people govern themselves by being the judges on all matters of justice in jury independence.
So many people are trying to reinvent the wheel and I used to be one of them. All we have to do is restore authentic Constitutional common law trial by jury.
There is actually currently a campaign to universally restore trial by jury by Democracy Defined on Substack.
That's another thing. People don't actually know what democracy is! It's trial by jury - demokratia! Nothing to do with majority opinion (voting). Statism actually started in 1688 with the Dutch coupe detat and the treasonous Bill of Rights and my colleagues have documented it.
We could write tomes on just the points you bring up here. So much to analyse, so much work to be done. I’m glad more people are catching on to these. Thank you
Great article and totally correct. Of course, this fact is known to "them" and because of that, they portray anarchism as chaos. Therefore, the immediate thought that springs to mind of the average person is a Mad Max world. And yes, it can lead to that, sure.. It takes a mature and relatively smart populace to carry a world based upon the principles of voluntaryism, but the most important thing to make it work is a fairly complete understanding of the problem and a sincere will to make the alternative work.
Right now we are in the age of revelation, but not in the fairy-tale, biblical meaning of that word. Everything is being revealed, be that when it comes to the pyramid scheme we call our economy, the corrupt and depraved world of our politicians, the pharma scheme, the lies within the dietary advice, the true face of Israel, organised religion, cultures and so on. None of that is organic, all of it by design and much of it is lies with a bit of truth in it. Yet it does not matter what is true and what is not, what matters is what they show us and what our reaction OUGHT to be (always wanted to use that word in a serious comment, love it!).
The only reaction to all these revelations should be to remove yourself from this cancer on earth. But, because the cancer comes with sweet treats, too many people look away from that weird growth on their body and pretend it is not there. Yet.. The treats are slowly taken away and in the end, they'll be left with no treats and only cancer. That is the sad reality.. Most people don't want to look at what people like you and me are saying because they understand that it will cause them to give up a life of relative comfort and a feeling of belonging to a group, however depraved that group might be. And that is exactly why the depravity is shown more and more; "they" see themselves as gods showing the ignorant slaves what is what and.. what will happen if they don't change.
To put it in fairy-tale terms; we are the character of Noah, but sadly most can't comprehend that very obvious clue.
I get what you're saying, and you may be correct.
But at this point, after caring my whole life, I'm completely out of fucks to give.

I’m done too, man. Writing this doesn’t mean I have hope. It’s just Nietzschean coping: writing to forget.
Please don't lose hope.
I suppose still writing is still “having hope”. Just not expecting anything at all.
I think we're all sort of screaming into the wind on here, in some sense. But we obviously WANT to effect change, otherwise we wouldn't be doing so.

Great article and all seems very reasonable to me.
Consciousness is the exploration of all things, good, bad and ugly.
There is no true separation, so they may be onto something.

Thank you. Hope it reaches the right people.
Thanks again Sotiris.
Question: when you say human history what do you mean? Written? The whole of? Something else?
I strongly suspect that it may not have all been as brutish and ignorant as you seem to think.
As far as I have been able to find centralized authority has only been around in pockets (of increasing size and number) for a short 8k years or so.
Thanks and good question. I meant recorded history. I also suspect it may have not always been the case. History is just a collection of fake news of the past.
