The number one question raised is how to unite the general population of normal Americans and find a common way to push back against the radicals who have taken control of government and the domestic power structures aligned with the public-private partnership.
There have been several discussions centered around the use of federalism; factually, there is a good argument to be made that tactical civics can have a strong impact on the overall dynamic of a detached, disinterested and yet weaponized system of government. However, the flaw within this process is thinking the power center operators care about what is happening at the boundaries of our defenses.
Factually, the state elected officials and those sent to DC are part of the same system. They are detached from us. Try to contact or use the process of “constituent services” and you will quickly discover how you are viewed as a simple annoyance to those who unilaterally decide how they will participate in ruling over you.
Not only does this UniParty assembly mean our applying electoral federalism (aka tactical civics) results in a slower march toward the same cliff, it also means we are comforted by a sense of something that ultimately provides little value.
We need actionable steps that can be taken.
Additionally, we already know if Donald Trump can take the MAGA fight back to Washington DC, the entire apparatus of government, and yes that includes your elected representatives, will fight to destroy him at every opportunity. So, how exactly do we: (a) support President Trump, (b) push back against the weaponized state, (c) confront our government abusers.
There are more of us than them, yet each of our efforts seems to face the full force of “them” against a divided sense of “us.” One of the ways we have discussed direct push back is a modern version of a workers solidarity movement. Essentially the creation of a system where targeted general work strikes can have an impact on the system that is targeting us.
It is one thing to discuss the Polish Solidarity Movement in esoteric terms of endearment. It is another thing entirely to think about the application of a labor strike process within the United States where 370 million people live. However, if you apply the concept of tactical civics simultaneously, you can make an argument the tactical civics are the shield (EU truckers), and the labor strike is the spear (EU farmers).
One of the advantages we have in the USA governmental structures is the “Republican Form of Government,” or the constitutional republic and the ability of states to determine their own interests.
Think about targeting now going in reverse, where WE THE PEOPLE now target the non-compliant system operators and/or politicians. A Senator or Congress person aligns against Trump’s interests, our interests, and instead of gnashing our teeth, we immediately begin a targeted work stoppage in/around the representative’s district. In this scenario we don’t need tens of millions to make an impact, only a few thousand can completely change the dynamic.
How does it work? How is it possible? How did the people of Poland pay their bills during the solidarity strikes? How do you organize that process so that everyone can participate, and yet no one individually needs to carry the risk of losing? These nuts-and-bolts questions are part of my research mission.
How effective would a Congressional District (CD-??) “sick-out” be? Perhaps timed for every Wednesday, beginning on the {fill_in_the_blank_day} and continuing until the representative understood that he/she alone was the cause of the economic trouble in their district. You see, the general labor strike doesn’t need to be scaled to the size of Poland circa 1980’s; instead with modern communication, it can target very specific places and create just as big an impact.
The dismantling of a weaponized government first begins with a set of political representatives who are willing to take apart the institutional tools that government uses to weaponize their power. As we saw with the hyped and yet failed Congressional Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of Government, once the public appears to be satiated with false hope from yet another created assembly, the representative group does nothing.
The urgency of the committee silo might look entirely different if the trash was not getting picked up in the committee members’ districts. Or the lawns were not getting mowed, or the cooks stayed home, etc.
You never realize how strong you are until being strong is your only option.
I will have much more to share on this issue as we will likely have a lot of support from ordinary MAGA-minded people in a multitude of countries. The Dutch, German, Polish, Romanian, French, Spanish and Irish farmers/truck drivers are figuring out how effective it can be if they push back with strategic solidarity. We can learn a valuable lesson.
Whether Donald Trump wins the 2024 election or not, the same practical process will be needed. If Trump wins the election, it will be to provide support under the auspices of unavoidable pressure. We don’t wait for primary races; we trigger the financial consequences immediately.
More to follow, soon….
Remember when those big trains formed out of Africa and surrounds into Europe. They have integrated. Never to be seen again. Those big trains are in your country.
Government creates the problems it seeks to resolve.
As government grows, the problems do.
I think we need smaller communities and local stewardship over our lives and livelihoods.
The only enemy is the one within. Each of us should make him an ally prior to seeking to change outside circumstances.
Then the idea of the US gov can be replaced. And that’s all it really is, an idea.
Been lurking here for a couple years reading the blog.
I am frustrated and the thing that pisses me off most is I am not doing a damned thing about it … NOTHING!
What can I do that would actually make a difference.
We need to start doing for our selves.
There is no law anymore. There’s only what some DC judge says.
And under the radar, when possible.
Simply put, this is awesome! For three years now, we’ve been told ad infinitum what the problems are, with very little if any attention paid to a workable solution. This targeted approach, IMHO, if we/they can collectively get off our/their figurative asses and actually do it, will work.
Begin by identifying what the individual political animal values most. Next, devise and execute a plan to threaten it with being taken away. Fear of loss is a great motivator and effective. C.O.I.N anyone?
The only individual right now with the cachet to “unite the clans” of the right and call for targeted or even national strikes is President Trump (who frankly should have done so after The Steal of 2020).
We need to somehow get Sundance to persuade him to Go Galt when necessary.
WhoWHERE is John Galt?There is no only option.
The left are removing our past and hence our future.
Those we choose to protect us, well they take the left’s dirty money and step aside.
And we pretend this is not happening.
We need our most trusted Patriots to collaborate on a Patriot’s Pledge, and then share with reckless abandon. A list of a few dozen things to encourage:
You are getting the picture… maybe not this exact list, but a similar list of guiding principals and some expanding knowledge underneath them on how to implement and sustain them individually. We need to all be working and pulling in the same direction. Not everyone will implement every idea, but every idea that is implemented will advance the cause in tangible ways.
There are thousands of “good ideas” floating here and other similar web sites. Bringing Sundance and other like-minded patriots together to create the most impactful actions to build into our daily routines seems like a good way to get the party started.
4. Using cash and/or barter and/or gold/silver whenever possible.
This is fine. But as the #J6 prisoners have shown; you will also have to surround the jails and get people released because any movement like this will be determined by the DOJ to be an insurrection and treasonous.
This is a subject that keeps me awake at night. It’s the best tactic to prevent/reduce whack-a-mole violence from the disparite parties who feel ‘cornered’.
The millions of young military age men that are “walking” through this border from every country are here for a reason. The evil deep state knows that the millions of us that have had about enough are ready to take back our country. Mini groups or patriots taking over districts isn’t going to be enough to give them a lesson. The evil judge in New York that is destroying Trump and the rest of us is a big example. If the Cops had stood up, walked in and handcuffed the judge it would have shown the country wt the left can no longer do. Biden should be handcuffed and thrown in jail for treason. Hunter and his Dad sold this county and nothing has happened to them. ThPoland and Hungary are the only countries left to help us. Musk and Tucker have tried – J6ers are dying in prison. There should be millions surrounding that jail and demanding they be let out. The only answer is if 81 and more millions of us decide on a certain day to march and once and for all take our capital back and our county. That is the only way. groups here and there aren’t going to do it.
So today… Truckers are going to start a BOYCOTT of driving to NEW YORK… due to the Legal abuses against TRUMP….
NYC is going to suffer terribly –
This fighting back… this is how we ‘sock it to them’….
“You never realize how strong you are until being strong is your only option.
I will have much more to share on this issue as we will likely have a lot of support from ordinary MAGA-minded people in a multitude of countries.” Yes, Sundance you are correct. I listened to a portion of C-PAC tonight and was amazed at the contributors from around the globe. We are stronger than they realize. Be prepared! Be ready!
