State of the Union Address

Some of my readers are disappointed I have not commented personally on all the fake tragedies of the past two months. After all I have said before, no comment is required but this: they are fake. All of them were faked in the past, they are all being faked now, and any you see in the future will be faked. I have no desire to comment on an endless string of fake events, since that is just a waste of my time and yours. All I need to do is point out the pattern. All you need to do is see the pattern. It hasn't changed in centuries, except for an acceleration of events. If something extraordinary happens in the future, I may choose to comment on it, but I may not. I am far more interested in studying the past: filling in the gaps in my research so that you can have an even fuller picture of the con. We now have a pretty good idea of the extent of the lie, but I am always seeking the next step down the rabbit hole. I am looking for something I haven't seen before, something that will move us forward in our search for the whole truth. History is a canvas far larger than the current one, and we are far more likely to trip across something important or previously unseen there. Which is exactly why the governors want to keep our eyes on the present. That is one of the primary goals of the current fake events: keep our eyes off bigger things. Their overarching gambit is and always has been misdirection, and you have to remember that at all times. They want to control your line of sight, and you cannot let them do it. You have to follow your own nose and ignore their carrots and sticks. You have to make yourself the opposite of suggestible, impossible to hypnotize.
Mostly you do that by saying no. You start by saying no to peer pressure in school, then say no to your parents, then say no to your governors. You do that by listening to your Muse. You were born knowing what to do. We all were. The difference between me and most people is that I listened to my Muse and said no those around me. Most people ignore their Muse and say yes to those around them. In some ways that is easier, since your Muse is far more subtle. She doesn't use the carrot or the stick, the bread or the circus. She just tells you the truth, with no honey or pepper, no beatings or awards. But those around you will constantly play you, one way or the other. Don't be played. Flee all cajoling. You will never be cajoled by the truth. The truth is normally far quieter than the lie, and far less sparkly. In this world the truth has been made difficult, so you can often judge it by that alone.
Salesmanship rarely accompanies the truth. The lie needs a salesman, the truth does not. The more something is sold, the more it is advertised, the less likely it is to be true. Your government is always packaging an expensive lie for you; it is always fresh out of the truth at any price. The university is an arm of the government: always remember that. It is not a promoter of knowledge, much less wisdom. It is simply another supplier of propaganda. It “teaches” you the approved set of lies, nothing more. The rising price of a university education is the perfect sign of its demise. In general, the more expensive something is the more useless it is. If it rises quickly in price for no apparent reason, you can be pretty sure it has just lost its original value. The rise in price is meant to mask the loss in value. The value is then in the price, and nowhere else.
Never allow your children to be taught lies, because you think it is easier for them or you. It isn't. You may think you are doing them a favor by allowing them to “fit in”, but you aren't. You will just ensure they are confused like everyone else. They will become the same liars and dupes as everyone else. They will not thank you for it. Your parents may not have known any better, but you will not have that excuse. I will be told that even in home schooling, you have to teach the kids certain things. The state tests them. Well, your kids will have to become revolutionaries at an early age, won't they? That will prepare them for their future of freedom, won't it? No one said it would be easy. Resistance is never easy, no matter what age you start. You will tell me they will be ostracized. Yes, ostracized by dupes and liars. There will always be others like you, so join them. If you need community, you can always find it. The Amish and Mennonites found it, or created it. So can you. This new community of resisters is a requirement of the awakening, so go gladly and rapidly into it, with full heart. It is a far larger community than you think, and far more powerful. Literally millions of people are looking for a way out of the current mind prisons, and that is just in North America.
And, conveniently for most of my readers, North America has a lot of room for these communities. Remember, it was just a couple of decades ago that Wendell Berry was recommending a repopulating of the countryside. He told us what was pretty obvious: the cities are too crowded and the farms need people to work them. Especially if we get rid of most of the chemicals and some of the machines. Do you see how the solutions start to dovetail? Not only do the small towns and farms and ranches need you, many of them want you. Land and housing is cheap there. They are patiently awaiting the revolution. The only ones who don't want you there are the bankers, the pesticide companies, and those people. They want you in the cities doing jobs that don't need to be done, so that you can buy stuff you don't need and make them rich.
Some will answer me that they don't wish to be Amish, or even farmers. Well, I am not advising you to become Amish, or a farmer, unless you want to be. Do you think everyone in the past was a farmer? Do you think everyone before the Industrial Revolution or before the rise of the big city was a farmer? No, the necessary jobs are varied, almost as varied as in any modern city. Unless you really love sitting in a cubicle, shuffling papers, or talking on a phone all day, or selling widgets, or staring at a computer screen. But even if that is your thing, you can support the revolution. Even those jobs will remain, they just won't dominate society like they do now. You can talk on the phone all day for an organic farm, instead of for some den of evil bankers or pharmaceutical pushers.
Some have called me Revolutionary #1, but others are saying I can't be Revolutionary #1000 since I haven't called for the revolution. But these latter people aren't paying attention. Every paper I have written for the past 20 years has been a sort of call for revolution, and a roadmap to it. It is just that the revolution doesn't begin with a rock through some window or a meeting of guys in hoodies at night. It begins like everything else: in my head or your head. It begins by changing your ideas and your desires. It begins by knowing the truth. It proceeds by saying no to the lies. It proceeds by talking to your neighbor. It proceeds by seeing a set of problems and then a set of solutions. It succeeds when people begin acting on those solutions. Since people are already acting on those solutions, the revolution is already succeeding. It is not just proceeding, it is succeeding. So there is no reason to call for it. There is only a need for encouraging its proliferation and acceleration. Everything I do is that encouragement, so it doesn't really matter how I am ranked in some mythical hierarchy of revolutionaries or truthers. All that matters is that I do what needs to be done. All that matters is that I listen to my Muse, and that you listen to yours.
I have been told there aren't enough people for a successful revolution, and if you mean by that an overthrow of the government, that is true. I see no hope of that in the foreseeable future. But as I just showed you, the revolution is already successful, in the sense that people are disconnecting from that government and the programs it is selling. If even one person frees himself of those shackles, the revolution is successful, and many people are. In this day and age, revolution isn't about overthrowing the government or seceding from the union, although they want you to think it is. It is about seceding from the banks and pharmaceutical companies and pesticide companies and media and worldwide propaganda machine. It is about seceding from the lies. It is about telling all the salesmen and programmers to take a leap. It is about not working for the enemy. It is about saying no.
