Voting is Futile!

David published this short but sweet article yesterday about Voting, and right out the gate the first comment stated that we needed to continue to vote. I just don’t understand anyone still preaching that we have to vote. Telling me that we need to keep using avenues available to us to fight TPTB even though it is futile is maddening. Listen to yourselves for a moment. Why would you continue to participate and give legitimacy to a corrupt system? All you are a doing by voting is making yourself feel good by saying “hey at least I tried.” It keeps you complacent. It keeps you saying “we’ll get them next time.”

I’m tired of being told that I must continue to vote for evil. If voting mattered do you really think these evil people who stole our Republic from us would allow us to vote? It still amazes me to see written and spoken word to the effects of voting, needing a third party and so forth. I for one have been done voting for lesser of two evils. I have no intentions of voting ever again. The only vote that matters now comes out the barrel of a gun.

THERE IS NO VOTING OUR WAY OUT OF THIS!!!

I’ve tried working within the system. I’ve tried all your suggestions. You have no idea how corrupt this government is, right down to the local level. Sure there may be bright spots here and there, but they are few and far between. Evil is winning, and we are doing nothing but voting at it and hoping for the best.

So what if Republicans take back the House? So what if the Republicans take back the Senate? What difference will it make? It’s sad that the vast majority on our side are still putting faith in just one more “most important election of our lifetime.” Voting is being used to justify inaction plain and simple. Those who advocate for voting in a rigged system are delusional and afraid of the real action that is needed to restore Liberty!

Let’s quit trying to delay the inevitable by continuing to vote. We all know what needs to be done. It’s time to man up. TPTB have destroyed our Republic. Therefore there is no reason for us to continue to follow the “Law”, for it is dead. We are free to fight these tyrants. We just need the courage to act!

Choosing the lesser of two evils is evil. How will you answer Jesus on judgement day for that sin?

In 2003, when we moved to our current state, I prayed before registering to vote. I was asking God whether to register in a political party or as an independent. God answered: “Voting for the lesser of two evils is still voting FOR evil. Why would you do that?”

I say a nationwide call to muster, we have been out of choices for a long time. There is only one way to restore our liberty and freedom, and it is the bullet box, I will not waste my time voting for this evil to continue. I will not be swayed by the tyrants’ threats, they have classified me a domestic terrorist in the country I was born. Well then, recently the uniparty called for a civil war if they lost in the upcoming elections, bring it scumbag.

How do nations slip from greatness to obscurity?

  • Fighting endless wars, they can’t or won’t win.
  • Accumulating massive debt far beyond their ability to repay
  • Refusing to guard their borders, allowing alien hordes to inundate their nation.
  • Surrendering control of their cities to mob rule
  • Allowing indoctrination of the young
  • Moving from a republican form of government to an oligarchy
  • Losing national identity
  • Indulging indolence
  • Abandoning faith and family – the bulwarks of social order.

So … done and done. We can fix this by voting? More? Harder? I think not.

It must be similarly understood, sir, that these circumstances are not new… It was ever thus, especially here in Canada where no person now living has ever known freedom, truly.
The situation here is so transparently dreadful, now that the government has decided that there is no longer a need to be surreptitious, that only the completely blind, utterly stupid, or those that benefit from the status quo would continue to advocate for something that is so routinely shown to be pointless.
‘They stood around, like voters the morning after an election…right back where they started without any idea of how they got there’.
I, for one, will now take my leave of this carousel of madness. Enough. Let us decide what must come next, and how best to comport ourselves to the work ahead.

I will respond to this post as I responded to the last one. Every tool in the toolbox needs to continue to be used. You seem not to have noticed the rise of conservative citizen activism, nor the increasing pace of their minor but important wins. My philosophy on this point has not lulled me into a state of complacency -- I am taking actions on many fronts for my farm and community. Nor would I hesitate to use other tools in that toolbox. For you to assert that you know what is in my mind or heart or what I am doing, is arrogant.
Let me turn a mirror in your direction, so perhaps you recognise this in yourselves. This entire post started out as a blast at me for my beliefs and some of the actions I am taking. This post was no less an example of ‘Cancel Culture’ than what the left routinely does to people they don’t agree with.
There are MANY new political candidates arising from the ranks of conservative citizen activists. They deserve our collective support -- and you never know when someone of that nature might take an action that makes a difference. You cannot know when or how God will use an individual to deliver his will.
The Constitution is still the law of this land. When you affirm that it is not, you are doing the work of the enemy. Certainly acknowledge that many people are acting against the law and against the Constitution -- but in my opinion, the correct response is to vow to change that situation by every action and using every tool in the toolbox.

Voting is no longer a tool in the toolbox. It’s the foolish belief that simply putting the “right” people inside the system will “fix” the system. Voting also will not “fix” the corrupt parts of the government that are unaffected by who is voted in or out. Voting is a fools errand plain and simple.

I cannot speak for Wes, but I can speak for my articles concerning voting. These articles have been written for years and were not predicated on your comment(s).
I remember being invited to meet with Thom Tillis when he was in charge of the North Carolina House. He wanted to meet with Tea Party “leaders” in the state. I was not allowed to record or film the meeting. I was allowed to listen to him regale the three of us with his accomplishments. When I left, another “leader” asked me what I thought. I responded that I liked him: he was the first politician who did not lie to us as he made sure that we understood the party and its power were his priority, not the people.
I saw Tillis’s vision come true when Dr. Brannon was kicked to the side of the road in favor of Tillis for the US Senate. The Republican leadership decided Tillis was more electable than an honorable candidate. And now Tillis is one of the Senate’s top RINOs and leading gun control legislation to restrict the 2nd Amendment.
I do not know you or seek to influence your life. I only want to ensure that our children are free. Voting in rigged elections is a narcotic and I do not gamble or use drugs. If you think the Constitution is still the law of the land and that we do not have a two-tiered justice system, I suggest you educate yourself on the J6 political prisoners.

David -- I have all respect for what you are doing, and have followed you for years. But the tone of this article was wrong and destructive.
Quoting from the article itself “… and right out the gate the first comment stated that we needed to continue to vote. I just don’t understand anyone still preaching that we have to vote. Telling me that we need to keep using avenues available to us to fight TPTB even though it is futile is maddening. Listen to yourselves for a moment.

That paragraph was aimed directly at me, as the first commenter to that article. The enemy wants us divided and savaging each other. Picking up the cancel culture techniques of the left is not a good sign.
I haven’t said there is not a 2-tier justice system, that situation is self-evident, but I will say I’m not ready to give up on the Constitution, on the concept of The Republic or on the fight to re-establish what it stands for. I am well aware of what we need to fight ‘against’, I’m just apparently sitting at a different campfire from the rest of the commentors here, when it comes to the vision of what we should be fighting ‘for’.

Mary, i have been following this site for almost a decade. I have learned and have seen evidence that the Constitution is dead. I am right there with you not wanting to give up on it. When I say evidence i mean physical evidence like historical document’s proving the NC State government was surrendered too the US Army during a time of peace. And the acts of Congress back then can not be justified by any enumerated power delgated to Congress. The Constitution is nothing more than words on a peace of paper. It takes Good men and women standing up and enforcing it. Also, the Constitution states how many Representatives there should be seated in Congress. They are no where close to that number. So, according to the Constitution we do not have adequate representation.
It seems like about 8 or 9 years ago i attended a town hall put on by the Moccasin Creek Minute Men. They hosted several of the local area Sherriffs. It was at that meeting I realized what the swamp looked like. I interacted with those Sherriffs to state that guns had already been confiscated by the government during Hurricane Katrina. And the Sherriffs acted like they knew nothing about it. They then proceeded to exert their authority and make the claim that “it doesn’t matter how fundamental a right we think we have , that no right is absolute.” Seems like i heard that stated again here recently. The point of that is that those in govt have a common understanding that mine and your rights do not matter. I realized at that meeting that the Republic has fallen and that i have been lied to all my life. And that is a sad fact of life that all us Americans are going to have to accept.

You’re under the delusion that voting is meaningful and legitimate. It is a sham. You’re under the delusion that you live in a sovereign republic. It is a corporation since 1871. The only reason they continue to run the so-called elections every 2 years is to keep slaves believing that they are free so they will never rise from their couches and do something about it. I’m not encouraging you to take up the gun in your “tool box”, but I am saying (and have been saying it for 12 years now), it’s time to turn away from everything that calls itself government: to stop legitimizing it and giving it life; to stop interacting with it in every way; to shun it. Stop feeding the Apocalypse Beast and it will starve. It’s the only way to win.

If anyone wants to win, they need to view the situation as it really is. Optimism is fine for raising morale, but it must be tempered by ration. I want to see the globalist technocracy come to ruin as much as you all, but fighting the way your enemy wants you to fight will guarantee your defeat. Strategy is needed, not bravado.

I recall in 1993, here in Canada…. there was a great move on the part of the Conservative opposition to institute what they called ‘The Right Of Recall’, wherein a sitting MP that screwed up could be fired by their constituents mid-term, triggering a snap by-election. The ruling Liberals, with Chretien at the helm, were determined to ensure this idea went nowhere, but fast.
At dockside in Newfoundland one rainy morning in that year, the Hibernia Project structure was launched, and Chretien was there for the ceremony. He was asked his opinion of the Right of Recall idea, and his response has stayed with me since:
“Well, you know, the Canadian people have the opportunity to express their will every four- or five years, and that should be enough’.
Voting is nothing but theatre.

James, no fear, I will continue to do things in my own way, and continue to resolutely act out, and act on, what our Republic is supposed to be. I believe I have a part to play in this drama but that it is not yet my time.
I haven’t a clear view as to what or when my part will be. One clue at this point is the strong realisation that in the near future there will be many unvaxxed orphans from vaxxed parents that will grow up to become a generation mentally and intellectually prepared and determined to restore our world. That generation will need nurturing within our survival communities. We need to prep not just for ourselves, our families and communities as we know them today, but to also make ready to take in that generation of kids.

Henceforth, I will be abstaining from voting because I refuse to legitimize this rotten system.
This govt is illegitimate, and as such, we must realize that we are not beholden to it… or its illegal ‘laws’.

Europe is an Empire UNDER God, but the oath breaking vassals usurped their imperial goods/fiefdoms (refusing to pay imperial tribute, stealing from the church, murdering bishops, raping nuns etc……) and became little warlords/tyrants like *before* Charlemagne. These are the guys people remember when they (falsely laying blame) despise the Feudal System…making it almost sound like a curse. The HRE was not much better. From this greed driven cesspool America was then conquered.
Normally, if an empire conquers territory, that territory becomes part of the Empire. But no, especially wanting freedom from the above mentioned cesspool Europe, the USA was formed in essence as a “democracy”. That political system is of course absurd and already failed long before Christ and His steward Charlemagne.
Here is why (Maund):
I have told you on numerous occasions that democracy is an absurd self-defeating concept.
The reason is simple – you cannot have a system where (also morally) ignorant stupid people have the same vote as intelligent discriminating people, who they vastly outnumber.
The result is mob (or psychopath….) rule and politicians getting voted into office not because they are conscientious individuals who will work for the betterment of the lives of their constituents, but because they kiss babies and promise the mob the Earth.
The result is the current unsavory collection of shameless gangsters and opportunists who now run Western societies and who milk their constituents on the one hand, while serving as compliant stooges for their NWO Masters on the other.

Agreed, up to a point. The average IQ of an American is 100. Double digit midgets are not very good guides for anything, much less a country.
What is needed are voter qualifications; high school education, which is free, payment of income tax, however little (means one is not a welfare parasite), honorable discharge from the military (means the same), or any other of several minimal achievements contributing to the country. Chose several, then cause several, not all, to be qualifiers.
Discrimination ? Hell yes -- against lazy, uncaring parasites who have dragged America into the ditch with their unqualified, unearned welfare sucking votes… the lifeblood of the Democrat Party.

Repeal the 19th, first. Then have men, who own property be the ones who could possibly vote.
Disband most if not all “agencies” at the fed level and have what needed function they might provide done at county level.
Term limits, and proper number of reps alluded to in another comment.
Do that, and I might ballot vote again, otherwise I am out as I have been since Billy Jeff’s second go….

I will not be voting, it is an exercise in futility and insanity. NONE of the candidates are going to help us little people, we are too far gone for that, the globalist powers that control the world want he old ways back. They want less people on the planet to be their slaves and will control them via electronic surveillance, via your smart phone and by chipping you. The WEF/CFR goons are in control. I agree with most, the only way to get it back is to fight for it, the ballot box is going to do nothing for a spiritual problem.

I agree with Mary. You fight with what you have. The sentiment that is expressed by the rest of these people who believe voting is futile is the same sentiment that sent the Jewish people into the concentration camps. Perhaps it will come to civil war, but in the meantime, I am going to participate the best way I can and that is to vote. As for the rest of you, what are you doing to change the system--just stockpiling guns and ammunition? Maybe you might have a greater impact if you actually participated by attending school board meetings and making your voice heard, since the corruption has infiltrated all of our institutions and is quickly corrupting the minds of the youth. Sometimes it only takes one person who is willing to lay his or her values on the line to change the destiny of a nation.

What I’m saying is that indifference sent the Jews to the camps. Did the public challenge the discriminatory laws against the Jews at the initial stages? No. Sometimes we have to fight against the ideas being proposed; we have to raise our voices. Voting is one way, but it is only a small part of it. Get out in your community, and actively engage with the policy-makers. We cannot hide until the apocalypse comes. Think about Rosa Parks. She challenged the segregated system with one small act. The schools are a place to start because a generation is being lost with all this woke propaganda. If you are silent, how will these children ever know the truth?

I was going to keep my dog at home on this one but changed my mind. With few exceptions, every candidate is backed by financial interests in need of an advocate. Hence, though I voted for Trump twice because he spoke the words we often thought, he was in reality one of the chosen to play the role given to him for the express purpose of creating a brown shirt base that could ultimately bring about the situation we face today. He is still playing the role for which he was chosen by tagging the MAGA supporters for future indictments. Jan 6 was the beginning. DC continues the deception by constantly tagging Trump. He is and always has been one of theirs. We have many democrats who switch sides to get elected for the purpose of fooling the people into thinking they will have a savior. We have always been duped. The only way out is to clean house whether from the bottom up or the top down. Having said this, it should be noted that my approach does not always agree with that of some others here. But I do not necessarily disagree with them.

Thank God, many reforms are being made and good candidates are running and getting elected. I will continue to fight to implement voting reforms for no machines, one day tally, bipartisan hand counted, verified currency grade paper ballots hand marked by picture identified lawful citizens alive in the district, except for rare approved request for absentee ballot (like for away military) all this while residing in an occupied state since it is run by one awful liberal county with major election fraud.

I agree on the futility of voting. In NH the GOP sent out a request for Election Inspectors and then of course never replied to offers from people willing to help. End result; the GOP can claim they tried to stop the fraud but couldn’t get any help.
To end something one must change the environment in which the action is occurring. Pulling weeds is futile, they just grow back, but smothering them or poisoning their specific environment makes it impossible for them to grow. Want to stop cars speeding; putting up signs is useless but putting in speed bumps or allowing potholes to remain in the road slows cars down.
Change the environment to change the outcome. How to do that is an individual choice. No one is coming to save you. Prepare accordingly.
