This is pretty damn spot on🍻🫡

Banger of an article.

"It seems the elites want people busy simply "staying alive," that way there is little advancement, and people are too occupied to worry about much else." They want slaves in survival mode.

No, it’s not laws or imprisonment, or elections and Trials.

It’s Civil War and the losers die, flee or are jailed.

It’s unmanly to demand others do your dirty work.

That's right.

But it's not about "manliness" how manly are the dead, and who writes their history?

We're entering "every man for himself" territory faster than most people realize.

All of the mechanisms that would allow for free people to mobilize (against an external enemy) are being monopolized (faster than their alternatives).

It's going to come down to small groups of people in the end. It was always going to come to that.

What a remarkable grasp of the future… I think just the goal of riddance of the Boomers requires Sherman’s march through the ACELA corridor at least.

As for the manliness of the dead … this remark is disqualifying from having an opinion, perhaps that should be rephrased?

I'm not suggesting that people lay down and surrender. I'm thinking that the whole idea of mobilizing effectively against a modern US/UN lead army is not really a good proposition – the idea is to never let it get to that point.

However, in the event that it did come to that, it would be mostly people in small groups working together to survive and attempt to overcome it – as large scale communications would be unlikely (or easily intercepted).

As for "How manly are the dead." Well, the dead don't write history. Therefore we'd damn-well better not be dead! That was not meant as a slight. It is just a reality.

I don't care about "generations" or "Boomers" as it were. My father is a "Boomer." But he doesn't agree with what's transpired either. This is more about people being (at least) somewhat free to determine their own lives. What’s being offered by The Powers That Be, is quite the opposite of that.

Things are going to come to a head sooner rather than later. Trump and his team are not slowing down with the whole Palantir "gather all the info on Americans" idea – it can’t lead to anything good.

Just like the Patriot Act didn't lead to a good outcome. It was specifically weaponized against Americans who disagreed with the Deep State/Permanent Government types.

People need to prepare accordingly – and that includes things falling apart.

I’m saying the dead were men if they fall in battle.

This meets 100% manliness.

Rest not as much.

All gave some

Some gave all

The future being written..,

Pffft

It’s being made. Now.

Matters what’s done, not what’s said.

As far as US/UN forces and small groups.

Small groups lose, and the US forces we have won’t follow “UN” forces.

Musk is a spoiled child. When he doesn't get what he wants after playing a game to manipulate the outcome, he lashes out. Most dems and rinos do the same. As an aside, when did he become a member of the black eye club. That should tell everyone what this is all about.

I remember reading about the black eye thing a few years back, but I never really looked into it.

There are collages with many celebrities and politicians all with one black eye. Suspicious, but not impossible, as most of the pictures were taken over a very long span of time. However, it is odd that you would have so many people in public-facing positions who "happen" to get a black eye.

I'm 45 now, and I seriously can't remember the last time I had a black eye. Sure, I've been in plenty of fights in my day, but I never attacked with my face! 😆😄😂 Come to think of it, I can’t think of the last time I’ve seen someone in public with a black eye, adult or child. Can you recall the last time you saw someone in public with a black eye?

The conspiracies run wild with the various reasons behind the black eyes. I would imagine it’s evidence of people having been strong-armed for some reason.

I have been wondering if this is why Musk steps out - he sees what is going on, how everyone makes a 180 degree turn once installed - and sure he cannot do this all alone, with everyone against him. Even Kennedy is nowhere near where he started from. They all have to dance to the tune of the Upper lords, or else. I think the only one who stood for his worth was Musk. All the rest has sunk like a souffle.

Musk is likely the most true to his conviction(s). However, I don't think that's because he's altruistic. I think it's because he's rather singularly driven – he wants to get to Mars, and there's no way that happens in the midst of a societal collapse. And there are definitely those who are driving the world towards societal collapse – which would inevitably lead to a global population collapse.

Musk is on the side of population growth *not* depopulation. He has stated before:

"We need to take a set of actions that increase the probability that the future will be good for humanity. We should increase the population of Earth, not decrease it." - Elon Musk

and

"Most people think like we have too many people on the planet but this is actually an outdated view, the biggest problem the World will face in 20 years is population collapse, not explosion, collapse." - Elon Musk

I think that his goals align with the goals of those *not* trying to depopulate the planet, but not particularly *for* any specific political goal(s).

From what I can tell, Musk is mostly about getting people, and governments, out of his way – so he can get to Mars.

It seems simplistic, but I think it really is that simple.

he did his best at repopulation ! He has quite a few children ! and he seems to truly love them. I recently read how crazy 'overpopulation' is - a person had calculated the world population could fit in Alaska and still have each a nice garden. If Alaska were a place to have a garden, that is, but still, if you see how much inhabitable, open space there is on earth, those that believe in overpopulation must 1. be blind 2. be extremely greedy
