The reason why we should not just trust people immediately is because the stakes are high! We are headed in a very bad direction, and some people call it Communism, and I am not sure what the proper word is or if we need a proper word. How about Serfdom?
We can see that a system is being put in place right now that is terrifying. But consider the possibility that this is just early days and we will not be alive to see the actual worst parts of it because they will candy coat it until they don’t have to anymore.
I still think you need to take the time to consider though how Communism was installed in the USSR to understand where I am coming from regarding trust.
Operation Trust was a counterintelligence operation in Russia that ran from 1921 to 1926. Operation Trust had operatives who would infiltrate the resistance to the installment of Communism in Russia.
So keep your eyes open to this, as you vet people who join your group. Remember we are the underdog. They have a lot of weaponized money to use against us. So I have to ask questions about the people who I meet who say they want freedom. I have to look carefully at their actions and consider the possibility that they are being paid to sabotage the resistance to this new serfdom.
Things that I have noticed about a person in my own community:
They start fights. They have started fights with a lot of people who are on our side. Of course fights sometimes happen, but when someone has fights with a lot of different people that does not make me trust them more.
The language they use is suspiciously what you hear from woke people. Here are some examples:
“we need to be like a think tank”
“we need to think things through and we should only really proceed if we feel confident that we will succeed” and in this case while this person used the word “we” in the sentence, it feels more like they mean that only when she feels confident.
“In business this is how we do things” I don’t think any training you had in college in business management makes you into the “expert”. If there’s one thing I don’t want in my life is someone who is pushy and considers themselves an “expert”. You know who else has training in business? Blackrock
Finally
Finally to end this before it is too long. A lot of people seem to think that we need to be very, very careful because, if we can get it just right, all the world’s problems will be solved. I do not agree. I don’t think we were born here to find paradise or to create paradise for the next generation. I do not think that we can get rid of suffering.
I think we should do our best to make things better. But if you are constantly worried that an action will not have results, in my opinion you will never do anything. No matter what you do, it might fail. And so just stop with all your trying to be perfect. Let’s try to make things better, but let’s not be unrealistic.
I will definitely be writing more about this because it seems especially important!
Thanks for reading.
Outstanding article! I've been trying to get the same message across in my Substack publication. One after another, hitting subject by subject, trying to wake people up to what's really going on.
Roger that on the Germs And Genes meme. I take full responsibility for my health.
Then again, heart disease and diabetes doesn’t run in my family, so that makes life a little easier.
