I restack this X one billion. The "but we need government or there would be chaos!" Cry, from the general programed population, might soon be getting a little easier to knock down. When I say to an individual, "I don't need to be governed. Do you?" The immediate answer is always, after only a moments thought, "Well, No. I don't", but you know they're thinking, "but the rest of those animals do!" With the powers that shouldn't be, showing their collective ass, the sheeple will need a plan.. Something to cling to. "Reason", may just have a chance to enter their still semi entranced brains. Maybe your words can be printed on boxes of cinnamon toast crunch. I apologize for the sarcasm. But in all reality........¿?
I'm glad someone got a laugh! I know I need one on an hourly basis these days. My 95 year old mother is just west of Tampa, I can't even get there to help pull the tree's off her, if need be. The geo-engineered weather weapon hasn't hit yet. But I don't think they will back down now. What would be the point? Those who know, already know, those who don't, probably never will. I'm ordering EDTA and vitamin C to clear the nano-tech from my blood stream so I might not get Marburgs/mind control/activated by 5g. Bleeding out of every orifice doesn't sound too pleasant to me! But if any of these things are mentioned to the normies, and that is all I have around me, they think you are bat shit crazy. The local grocery store pharmacy announced they have a "limited supply" of fresh bio-weapons, come on in and get your jab! Old people are lining up. In wheelchairs, walkers or just shuffling in, with what's left of their immune systems and I want to scream "RUN, RUN FOR YOUR LIVES"!!!!. But I suppose the time for that is over. So.... Cereal boxes it is!!
As I noted before, I find myself leaning more and more toward anarcho-capitalism. However if such became the rule of the land I suspect companies created and hired to provide insurance and security would become the rulers. In other words some such as Blackrock would end up being our master. "Nice little business you're got there Harry, be a shame if it burned down. Now it ain't gonna happen if you just sign here..."
The place I see for anarcho-capitalism is in the cracks. A parallel system, trade and evade the taxmen as much as possible. Communicate and relate via routes beyond site (That was a misspelling but I'm leaving it as such should be beyond sight of and not on sites created and controlled by the ___.) of the censors. Establish like communities but I don't have to like your likes and I can establish mine with different likes. Something like your charted above virtual with dabs of your semi-territorial escaping the state.
If such were perhaps the State would wither away. Perhaps we'd end up with Nozick's nightwatchman state.
On the other hand say nothing changes or the state apparatus keeps on growing. Assume the vast majority wants their bread, circus and deep fried cockroach. If we start building now, you, me, anybody that wants to can still be free, in the cracks. Such could end up being quite, extremely, luxurious cracks.
Again another as I noted before and will probably long be noting, I find myself often referencing an Albert Camus quote; “The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.”
Love the Camus quote. Years ago I read Harry Browne's book "How I Found Freedom in an Unfree World" and it changed my life instantly. It pulled the curtain back from the virtue signalling liars and guilt trippers for what they are, and also made clear the futility to thinking you can and must change the system before you can live the way you want. Working within a system so corrupted and disfunctional as the one we have is futile. Individual action must be taken. If you can find like minded individuals who also are willing to network to find a way off the human cattle ranch so much the better. You have to make pattern breaks and look for the cracks, decide what rights you value the most and move if you need to a community where those are at least mostly either tolerated or the oppressive rules are not rigorously enforced.
Anyone interested, Brown's book is available on Amazon including Kindle format, in paperback from sellers such as ThriftBooks, & can be found on the net in PDF form.
This North Carolina aid debacle is sure exposing the control freaks for who and what they are. "We are the only ones authorized to provide whatever relief is going to be provided, and we select who the sources are going to provide it, and anyone who tries to go around us will be arrested." They are determined to protect their management monopoly with whatever coercion is necessary. The timing couldn't be more right for these consent based alternatives to be presented.
But in any such situation, militaries do tend to split into factions. The factions exist; I am sure if it. It’s just a question of whether they act or not.
It seems to make sense. By the way, just to clarify, i meant one faction, not one person. That does happen on occasion, but with little impact other than that one person doing what's best and what's right.
Yeah, does make on wonder. There must be a few with some shreds of conscience and human decency among them, also capable of some degree of critical thought. Well, I have heard there have been whistleblowers among them disgusted with what is happening.
This is what the free cities movement is all about--voluntary, contractual governance. Right now, we have to negotiate with coercive, political governments to "allow" us the autonomy to create prosperity for their "citizens," but the vision is a world of independent jurisdictions that can experiment and compete for inhabitants by offering the best services.
They have no jurisdiction over Ones who do not consent. Yes, They can be bullies - but when enough of Us stand sovereign in aggregate, They will have no power.
And besides... What's an old, destitute, disabled, homeless lady to do, getting wherever with Her precious feline? No... I stand MY ground.
Maybe we should stop using the words "government" and "governance" going forward as well? Perhaps "Cooperation" is better. Almost anything is better than the former two words. After all, isn't that what we're trying to escape?
This is how I really think it should have been from the beginning, with each State being its own and people moving freely to different states depending on their need or life stage. I don't understand how so much power was transferred to the feds. No matter who you are, you would understand that people who live in rural or even suburban areas, with close to an acre of land each or more would not need to follow the same rules (covid) as those who live in urban human packed environments. It doesn't make sense.
Thank you Christopher for this interesting break down. The one thing we know for sure is the current mess Right or Left is Awful and what they have planned for us in the One World Order is Diabolical!
I think one must order (or put into order) their inner world before tackling the outside world. If you can realize that government and most authority is not much more than an extension of unbridled ego and arrogance, it may be easier to see a path to freedom.
Human nature never changes from that of wanting control and to always be right. This is why history continues to repeat in numerous ways. The insanity of it is that right is right only within specific contexts and in the end we can control very little.
GOVCORP gave up government status when they all incorporated, gaining access to unlimited unaccountable public money to enrich themselves and their corporations is their intention, becoming directors of for profit private businesses sucking in massive amounts of public money, creating massive public future debt and with no fiduciary duty and no duty of care, trustees have been replaced with directors who could all be arrested and charged as many corporations have been in the past.
William Howard Taft, 27th president of USA and chief justice of the supreme court, only one to simultaneously hold both positions at the same time,said:
"Don't expect a perfect government as it's made up of people and people are not perfect". Correct, in the trustees sense.
But, they're not governments anymore!
He also said:
"If they will play fair I will play fair, but if they don't play fair, I reserve all my rights to do anything I find myself able to do.
Consent makes the law, say two letters, No, what could be easier than that, you squeeze a lot more arguments into your day, just say no, simple, alternatively everybody has the right to remain silent depending on the situation, but with estoppel by aquiessence sometimes it's better to just say no, on repeat .

I was driving with my parents down the coast to San Diego once many years ago, and my dad said to my mom words to the effect of, “Hey, the houses really are all made of ticky-tacky.” I knew he was referring to a song, but I had no idea which one…until now. Thank you!
I'm sure you will cover this, but my thought is, buyer be wary. All such existing groups have rules. It doesn't take much research or time to find out if leaving/exiting is encouraged.
In truth it would be encouraged and supported as a stepping stone and seed for any & others to learn what they choose instead of cultish dogma.
true. some have & maintain first right to purchase to preserve entry. that is usually in disclosure & if introduced, it is usually informed. I'm hardcore & have & would walkaway leaving it all behind if need be. js
i have learned I can't fight the rising tide nor the winds of change. I can still make choices, although narrowing, that suit me, til I can't.
states & counties are now creating land banks, buying the land. I have to learn more about unincorporated land. Opportunities are off the beaten path so I am constantly learning & looking.
Yeah, but in a way, we all have. At some point, we have all said something that grants governments legitimacy. We have voted. We have acted as if our rights come from government. We've said, "There oughta be a law…"
Then some of us have woken up. So hopefully we can wake up some others too!
4 Men worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked, "Who is like the beast? Who can make war against him?"
8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast--all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world..
Now.
Revelation 9:
20 The rest of mankind that were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood--idols that cannot see or hear or walk.
Revelation 22:
11 Let him who does wrong continue to do wrong; let him who is vile continue to be vile; let him who does right continue to do right; and let him who is holy continue to be holy."
12 "Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done.
18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book.
19 And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
I understand. In my picture on this post, average people were making a bargain with the Devil. That is what I thought you were referring to.
Also, while I do sometimes separate myself out, I also sometimes refer to we collectively as a species. Like, we (humans in general for the last few thousand years) have been according to government a legitimacy that it does not deserve. So sometimes I also use we as in the general species-we, so it does not sound like I am claiming to be above it all, or whatever. That’s all I meant.

I keep wondering when just ONE of them is going to start questioning his orders………
This.
It's not going to happen. They're more worried about their paychecks and pensions than liberty and justice.
Yes, they have a lot of bad incentives.
But in any such situation, militaries do tend to split into factions. The factions exist; I am sure if it. It’s just a question of whether they act or not.
Perhaps i am naïve, even as cynical and “black-pilled” as i have become, but i think if ONE would stand up and show up, others would as well.
I was just thinking that same thought 15 seconds ago!!
It seems to make sense. By the way, just to clarify, i meant one faction, not one person. That does happen on occasion, but with little impact other than that one person doing what's best and what's right.
Dear Bacon commander: Please tell me there will be bacon in the new world.
There will be. But you might have to grow it yourself. Or find someone who does.
I want to be a bacon farmer! Where can I buy bacon seeds?
They grow from pig bellies, which is convenient because pigs eat cheap. They’ll eat anything really.
Yeah, does make on wonder. There must be a few with some shreds of conscience and human decency among them, also capable of some degree of critical thought. Well, I have heard there have been whistleblowers among them disgusted with what is happening.
I have too. I wonder what would make them more willing to act…

Thanks to pioneers like you!
Respect 🫡 articulate and poetically put! Looking forward to more, glad I found you 😃🤝
Glad to have you here!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻🧠🙏🏻
I loved this:
"It’s not eternal vigilance. It’s eternal Stockholm Syndrome."
Very true.
What I dispute is that They have any jurisdiction in the ground My body touches. I have a meme... It says:
"Every place I place a foot is Mine. That spot of ground My soles touch no Other may have. But once I lift a foot, that spot is no longer Mine."
From this, I take My sovereignty and seek diplomatic immunity.
Demand Diplomatic Immunity! (article): https://amaterasusolar.substack.com/p/demand-diplomatic-immunity
They have no jurisdiction over Ones who do not consent. Yes, They can be bullies - but when enough of Us stand sovereign in aggregate, They will have no power.
And besides... What's an old, destitute, disabled, homeless lady to do, getting wherever with Her precious feline? No... I stand MY ground.

If BLM were not hoarding so many millions of acres, everyone could have a chunk.
Ugh. Blech.
Thank you Christopher for this interesting break down. The one thing we know for sure is the current mess Right or Left is Awful and what they have planned for us in the One World Order is Diabolical!
But the Devil loses in the end.
Let us see to it that we do our part.
For Sure!
I think one must order (or put into order) their inner world before tackling the outside world. If you can realize that government and most authority is not much more than an extension of unbridled ego and arrogance, it may be easier to see a path to freedom.
Human nature never changes from that of wanting control and to always be right. This is why history continues to repeat in numerous ways. The insanity of it is that right is right only within specific contexts and in the end we can control very little.
Yeah. I am trying to do the inner work too. I guess I always have—wanting to be better, overcome my foibles, etc. Always a work in progress!
anyone now of any spare land that is not being used by any other people that's going cheap per chance?
GOVCORP gave up government status when they all incorporated, gaining access to unlimited unaccountable public money to enrich themselves and their corporations is their intention, becoming directors of for profit private businesses sucking in massive amounts of public money, creating massive public future debt and with no fiduciary duty and no duty of care, trustees have been replaced with directors who could all be arrested and charged as many corporations have been in the past.
Government has always been a moral problem, as I have discussed at length hereto. But yes, for sure it has gotten way worse!
Thanks Christopher.

In truth it would be encouraged and supported as a stepping stone and seed for any & others to learn what they choose instead of cultish dogma.
Yes, caveat emptor. But it is also possible for a polity to stop allowing exit rights at some future time.
Again, a problem we'd want to have, in comparison to zero consensual polities and zero legit exit rights now!
true. some have & maintain first right to purchase to preserve entry. that is usually in disclosure & if introduced, it is usually informed. I'm hardcore & have & would walkaway leaving it all behind if need be. js
More people need to be hardcore like you.
