Voting Is The Opiate Of The People

I can go on and on with numerous quotes from our founding fathers about rebellion and resistance to tyranny.

People that are continuing to vote are holding out hope because they are afraid of not being right.

People will believe in and support a corrupt system if it means it will allow them to continue to sit on the couch watching sportsball and “reality” shows.

If Trump wasn’t on the ballot, you’d be just as excited to cast your vote for Nimrada Haley, just because of the R by her name???

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.”

We are free to fight these tyrants. We just need the courage to act! However, I can’t do it alone.

Wes

The delusion is just as strong in the people that still believe in fair and secure elections, it in my opinion is like a baby’s pacifier, go ahead and vote then. If you do not believe that they have already selected the winner VOTE. Our founding fathers also gave us the 2nd amendment, at this point means about as much as the vote, if we are not willing to stand up against the tyranny, again TINVOWOOT.

Stupendous article here. I agree. I am abstaining from voting. I will continue to push back against AI and other forms of tyranny put upon us. I stand! I know what hill I must die on.

I stopped voting several decades back, when I learned the globalists (most live in the E.U.) control the politicians, making them puppets, incl Congress and many state governors. Trump has too much baggage now, legal issues with several women, and bloviates, pushing the COVID shots at his MAGA rallies, and is inconsistant. Besides this country is too far gone to matter now who gets in office. Borders remain open gangs, drugs and child trafficking, cities lawless.

Voting has never been an opiate with me. Have only voted for president one time, and this was against what was in there. Some individuals vote for many different reasons. This is ok, it is their right. There are many ways to fight evil. Diferent roads for diferent people, one would think that people fighting for individual and personel freedom and liberty could understand this. Individuals have different skill sets and will each serve as they are called to do so.

Pity is Tom, where is the NON-Pacifist ACTIONS?

Even MSN and CNN are posting pictures of the well-tanned “Amish” that are doing the dirty to Americans.

I bet any Non-Pacifist ACTION from “Patriots” would not be hidden but Front-Page News.

Maybe the Powers that Be are SCARED to mention successful “Patriot” actions…

Yeah, that’s it…

At least I’m honest enough to say me and mine are preparing to survive the chaos that will be engulfing our once fine Republic.

Thanks Tom. To me Wes seems to be static. Refuses to see the whole picture. Can only see the value of the gun, nothing else matters nor is noteworthy. If your not placing a bullet in someone at this moment you are doing and accomplishing zip. So yes i must disagree. This does not make me nor anyone else a pacifist.

A static posture (unchanging) isn’t what the forefathers chose, they acted, otherwise the American revolution would have never happened. Follower is in the majority today, the “do nothings” who will accept any type gov. incl a dictator. That’s how dictators of the past took over a gov., they first become a cult type figure, speaking lies. The people complied simply by being passive. Hitler and Stalin were good examples. The majority obviously endorse Agenda 2030 by not taking a stand on anything. They will get chipped, be tracked 24/7, and eat bugs and own nothing.

I live in a very conservative town in NW Az, our sheriff is a constitutional sheriff, the PD here do not allow any tents or homeless camping on the streets. Still I am armed at all times, your demonized if you mention the militia, to them it is all about surviving the coming storm and it is coming. I will not stop calling for us to stand and fight, the usual comments are you first and so on, I 100% agree with Wes on his articles, we do not have a choice if we are survive. And hiding out and just trying to survive will not work either.

Wes was pointing out a fact in the link. You are obviously a beta male like the majority of men are today and those who won’t speak out and stand for anything vital. City leaders and pastors in most churches compromise values if they have any, are man pleasers, who choose to remain silent and focus on social activities.

I vote by writing in “withdraw consent” -- anything else, IMO, is playing their game.

The rest of my vote is spent declining new taxes and bonds (local level)

Voting is the public-school democracy of Schoolhouse Rock “I’m just a Bill” Civic Nationalism.
Voting (R) is the “good schools” neighborhood of the uniparty..
Don’t say the other part out loud or you might get kicked off Facebook.
I get the appeal to feel like we are part of something greater but there comes a point when our own desire to pursue something that is no longer real is just as absurd and evil as the commies and globalists and other peddlers of the pretty lies and dangerous delusions.
When living in post-Heritage America where all of our institutions have been either destroyed or skinsuited by globocapital, the marxist bunch, and invader tribes -- who somehow have not been required to sublimate their identities and culture and corresponding morals, values, and preferences for that same civic nationalism, we have to question the entire premise.
I suppose if I was cashing SS checks or a pension or otherwise riding out the ponzi of FUSA’s printing to the moon I would be more “invested” in kicking the can, the status quo of exercising all my “rights” within the System that lets me as long as I have the right permits and haven’t said anything to edgy and followed all their rules and paid all my taxes etc.

I really object to those who deride SS recipient’s. I served 6 years in the NC NG during the Reagan Administration. It resulted in lost income and inconvenience . In addition I involuntarily paid in 500k (me and my employer) to SS. Then how about 1 million in taxes over 48 years working 10 hrs a day six days a week. I have never got a dime in government assistance buying my homestead and raising 2 children. We older patriots are not the problem. I cannot run around with a M-60 + Ammo like I did in my 20’s.Something must be done I agree. We are not the problem.

If you are referring to my reference to SS try taking a step back from your exceptionalism for a moment to reflect upon the thrust of what I am saying.

Which is that there is a strong correlation between those who want to “vote” and then go back to the couch, or otherwise keep the System going, to “not let them divide us”, or pursue “law and order”, all while they claim to hate the “tyranny” and abuses of that same system that is designed to leverage that goodwill against us, because they are enslaved by it.

A man who draws his paycheck, status, and tenuous sense of purpose from the beast is highly unlikely to turn on the beast when it is needed in order to free his brothers. These are the Ordinary men who keep the beast going.

My business was destroyed during “Covid” while others got free money. And still others bent the knee, abused their kids, and made it all possible by going along such that they could continue to draw paychecks and comforts. Many were exceptional people in all those same matrices you list.

This “get mine” individualism coupled with the insidious ways in with our economic and political beast entraps us is a huge problem because before all the pipe hitting patriots can go all spicy times there are legions of Everymans who must withdraw their support from the system. Which will mean walking away from money, status, comforts, etc.

Every time this is raised peoples instinct is to do just what you have done and flex their individual creds to prove they are the exception without considering the wider implications. This kind of solipsism is also why the 19th was a terrible idea.

That’s the reality. No matter how many exceptions I keep finding among your generation, somehow we still got to here. And to my point, we aren’t getting out of here until that changes by exogenous pain or by force of will.

Wes my schools don’t have Drag Queen story times, we fired a few problem officials, teachers and a librarian who thought they could push their views on our children.

We voted most of them out.

So how are you protecting your children?

Your 100% spot on Wes, I mentioned the baby pacifier in relation to voting, the baby thinks he is being fed, but he actually gets nothing, so to all you that expect something of your vote, what will you say when the results are in? We will get them 2028.

Laura a good suggestion.

Might want to look up what legislation our “fav Democrats and RINOS” (sarc) have tried to propose and are proposing again and again.

Seems the Uni-PARTY doesn’t like non gov approved schooling.

Almost like they study Lenin and Stalin who both said:

Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.

Destroy the family, you destroy the country.

When has Defense won a war?

The main reason why it is taking us so long today to act, is the lack of alpha men of fighting age, and that over 90 percent of people remain uninformed, scoffing at the informed giving out info. Most don’t even know the borders are wide open because they never read alt. news or even watch corp news. Nihilism is the new religion of the masses, dumbed down and most will comply when families are rounded up and loaded onto buses to detention centers for extermination or when gangs of illegals go thru towns assaulting, killing and pillaging when given orders and armed. Very few will stand and protect families or fight for community. America has been taken down without a shot fired.

Yahuah Alahim (Yaweh) is Alpha,
The One and only Alpha in my view. i know what the world says and means yet something is amiss.
men and women have their roles. Not many seem to abide by these. we read them and our eyes glass over and we go on. (‘we’ many.) The world leads us astray in many ways.
Perhaps the reason it is taking “so long to act” is He is in absolute control and many need this time to learn, and have some new revelations, serving His purpose, His Will? How patient has satan been to accomplish his goals (long game) ? Mashiak (Christ) has more patience than satan will ever begin to have!
The Bible warns us of these days and times, ours is to adapt and persevere through this.
America i to believe has been taken over by evil entities and will most likely get worse, ours is to Stand strong and Speak and do the opposite!
i have never said do not defend!

organize in our community, talk to sheriffs and other officials. Certain parts of the country are over run with illegals and lawlessness. They need to wake up and form groups to protect their neighborhoods.

How am I obligated to live under or follow what another person or person(s) version of freedom is for me? Is this not what your voting amounts to?
Bill of rights, common law…..Ratified Dec 15th, 1791…..Earned in blood, there is no authority over free American Nationals.
