Isn’t it amazing how “15 days” of sacrificing freedom has led to a downward spiral into the abyss?
Benjamin Franklin did warn us when he said: “They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
Was he not clear enough?
When you give up your Liberty, you give up your life, for they are one and the same. Humans have the inherent freedom to choose. We are not automated robots. When you give up your freedom, those who assume it will attempt to turn you into an automated robot…their automated robot.
They say. You obey.
The wolves must get your consent first. So they dress themselves up in sheep’s clothing and present you with a sweet and innocent opening wedge: “Just give us 15 days…that’s all.”
You can give your freedom away on the cheap. You get the sale price. Give your freedom away for a measly “15 days.”
Once that opening wedge is granted your consent, the dam is broken and a deluge of tyranny is unleashed on you.
The deluge of tyranny is extremely fast and furious. You’re tossed around, banged around, and battered like a car swept up in a tsunami. Nothing makes sense anymore. Everywhere you look, you see and hear lies, and you’re completely disoriented.
Now that your freedom has been compromised, the tyrants dangle it in front of you like the rabbit in a greyhound race.
They’ll have you chase that rabbit, and make sure that it’s always out of reach, no matter how fast you run.
“Oh, you want your freedom back? Meet this condition, and then you will be free.”
So, naively, you meet the condition. You obey.
But guess what?
The tyrants were lying.
Why? Because tyrants lie. You should know that.
Sure, you met the condition…You obeyed. But the terms of the deal have changed. Now a new condition has been added. Now you must meet another condition in order to have your freedom back.
Go ahead, chase the rabbit.
Naively, you obey again.
But once again, your freedom is denied. Another condition has been added…and another…and another.
Eventually, enough time passes by that your obedience becomes a habit. You’re being trained to obey. You start to realize that you’re not getting your freedom back. 15 days becomes another week…another month…another 6 months…Then you start to hear that it’s forever!
Benjamin Franklin was right.
The lessons of history were correct.
Freedom doesn’t come from other human beings, but slavery does. Government can’t make you free, but it can make you a slave.
The Declaration of Independence was right: Freedom comes from our Creator.
Downward the spiral goes, and another mile marker into the abyss is reached…
In America’s largest city, New York City, freedom is to be determined by the Big Pharma contents of your body.
What you can and can’t do in America’s largest city will depend on which Big Pharma corporate chemicals are flowing through your bloodstream!
The Big Pharma chemicals that flow through your body are not to be determined by you, but by the government.
If the government deems that more Big Pharma contents are necessary, then in order to have your “freedom,” you must roll up your sleeves again.
This begs the following questions?
Is it even your body anymore?
Have you lost the sovereignty over the one (and only) body that the Creator has blessed you with, and given you complete control over?
The answer, sadly, is yes.
Control over the contents of what is in your bloodstream has been granted to other human beings. They are out of your hands now.
Go ahead, chase the rabbit. Roll up your sleeves.
Is this what the inhabitants in the “Land of the Free” want?
Are Americans willing to become automated robots, with no control over the contents of their own bodies?
Are Americans willing to become playthings for the amusement of other human beings?
This writer is optimistic that the answer is “NO.”
This writer believes that the burning desire of Life to be (and remain) Free cannot be completely conquered. It can be battered, beat up, and bruised, but not conquered.
If this writer is correct, then Americans better open their mouths and learn to speak the word “NO,” as loudly and as clearly as possible…and they better do it fast!
“Isn’t it amazing how “15 days” of sacrificing freedom has led to a downward spiral into the abyss?”
Not really.
Did anyone expect otherwise?
I suppose most people tend to be stupid and simply accept what they are told without thinking things through to understand the real purpose of it.
All things done by politics have both an overt and covert purpose, never fail to look for the covert one since that is the real purpose in spite of what you are being told.
Chris,
I believe your optimism is flawed.
This strategy has been going on for over a century. Our children and grandchildren have been indoctrinated into the liberal one world order mentality. Half of our country is filled with white guilt oozing liberal fools and American haters, The media is bought and paid for – education is a communist enterprise – Big tech, big Pharma are controlled by China.
I by DNA am a fighter – but I do not see a winning path ahead for America – we have gone pass the tipping point.
Best advise is to prepare – ammo up – organize
Jarkartaman. I look for your comments on the articles. And I know your heart is strong and noble.
I’ve put my kids in private school because I know there is a battle. I speak boldly about my convictions. Hope is what we have, Brother. Never, ever lose that. If you lose hope, you lose.
Ammo is handy but faith in human kind as the image of God is handier. And regardless of what happens, chin up and eyes bright because spiritually speaking, you’ll live forever. Love Mary
Ok, now it is time for those who love freedom to lead us back to it. We need to identify and expose the tyrant’s and remove them from office. We need leaders who will not use their office for gain but restore the power to the people. We need leaders who will dismantle the monster and stop it from feeding on us.
They’ve already identified and exposed themselves.
And they’re proud of it.
We not only don’t remove them from office, we put new ones in that are just like them, and sometimes even more so, if they are among the few that do end up removed once in a while.
There really isn’t much we can do about it, but if we’re nice to them maybe they won’t hurt us too much.
There is speculation that an emergency alert can force open your cell phone, to record it’s contents and download malicious spyware, fyi. Scheduled for 8-11, supposedly.
Mine’s barely used, turned off and put in a shielded situation, fwiw.
Although, grouchy, unconditionally-patriotic shitposters are trying to run off the Doomers from some platforms, today. Maybe, they’ll tell us whether they got updates.
To LIVE is a process God gave us. Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of happiness.
The Tyrants and their devil helpers took over and made things BACKWARD,
LIFE spelled BACKWARDS IS EVIL.
Life spelled backwards is elif.
People gravitate towards information that reinforces their own beliefs.
If the information doesn’t reinforce their beliefs they cancel it.
Makes no difference if the information is credible or total BS..
Just as long as it reinforces their own beliefs.
That’s not a good thing.
excuse me, efil, not used to writing backwards while ignoring spell checkers.
Lol you get the point English nazi
