I started back in March 2020 to prepare for an unknown world. I understood back then we were in a war. The war is not like any I can remember. Things are becoming clearer all the time. I believe our enemies are the people who run "too big to exist" corporations. Their mechanism of control: fear and economics. I call it corporate feudalism. You may call it fascism. My most important step was to get out of debt. I sold my expensive city property with a mortgage and moved into a modest home with no mortgage in the woods with neighbors like turkeys, birds, deer, squirrels, etc. The wild life pose little risk to me or my family by outing my evil white ways. I deplatormed myself from smart tech, big cloud, big social, big media, big banking, big agra, big pharma, etc. The answer of why I did this should be obvious to most of you. As you know, "too big to exist" platforms use our data as money. This is how they survive. I didn't want to support my enemy in any way. Getting out of debt was the biggest benefit to me. Not only am I sovereign not being in debt, I am out of reach of big banks to control me and sell my data. Credit cards are convenient but also a trap to get into debt (slavery). Not to mention, credit card use generates lots of transaction data big banks use to generate revenue for themselves. Using cash eliminates a lot of data and also helps small business because they pay large transaction fees using credit cards. The banks will argue that their fees are less than people handling money. I won't dispute that, however, banks want the money and the data credit card transactions create. I want to deny that to them. Deplatforming myself from big cloud and big social started years ago mainly because I had no interest in big social and big cloud in the first place. I do recommend you deplatform yourself because, your data is valuable to these platforms. Engaging in any big social is telling your enemy all about you. Sure you don't do anything wrong, but everything you post becomes a permanent record of you. You may find yourself unable to do something years from now because you posted yourself somewhere having fun and later that is taboo. It's simply better not to leave a data trail. Not to mention, your big social engagements are how big social makes money. I want to deny them money off of my data. Big cloud is dangerous! I can't emphasize that enough. You are entrusting your private data to a "too big to exist" corporation and they will disconnect you from your data when it suits them. My solution is private cloud using any NAS products produced by Synology, Buffalo, Western Digital, etc. Your Apple device connects you to iTunes. Android devices also try to connect you to Google Cloud. Just get off! No smart devices! It's true, you can't escape smart devices. However, do not allow them to connect to your WiFi. If the device won't work without WiFi, the device is too dangerous to use. My refrigerator is WiFi capable. I refuse to allow it to connect, though. But the refrigerator will function without WiFi. Smart speakers, I avoid them like the plague! I always ask people when I enter their homes if they have a smart speaker so I can filter myself. Smart doorbells represent a target for law enforcement too attractive to resist. I once noticed the police at my neighbor's house. Curious, I asked why the police was there. They told me the police wanted them to sign a paper giving them access to their ring account. Unfortunately, this didn't surprise me in the least. I called my car company and asked them to turn my car telemetry off. I revoked any implied permissions that I may have inadvertently given them when I bought my new car. I let the "free" satellite service expire. I also noticed traffic data was always at least 20 minutes behind anyway. I returned Big Cable's interface devices in favor of my own separate devices because I don't want to be a node on their public WiFi network. I don't use a VPN because all that does is add delays and moves the point of traffic interception to a different vendor. I don't subscribe to cable TV mostly because they offer nothing I want to watch. Also, it's very expensive and they capture my content viewing habits. I want to deny them that revenue stream. Cell phones. These devices are problematic. They track me and spy on me. It's only getting worse. I do turn mine off when I don't need it. I leave the GPS disabled. Yes, I can still be tracked by triangulation of cell towers. But I want to make it as problematic as I can for law enforcement to trace me. There is no viable phone yet that isn't Google, Apple or Microsoft. Purism seems promising, but the monthly price is not within reach yet. Clearly they are having issues getting a major carrier to support them with a reasonable calling plan. I've mostly stopped going to the doctor because the doctors are all in on Big Pharma pushing their drugs. When I must go, I get offered the customary "flu" shot, which I decline. I'm probably noted as being an anti-vaxer at this point. I plan on telling Big medical that I am waiting to get the Bill Gates jab after everyone else gets it. I can't, in good conscious allow my evil white privilege to allow me to jump in front of some more needy person that can't afford the jab. Food. I've stopped buying prepared foods in favor of fresh foods. I'm not convinced that organic is any different than non-organic food. In any case, I avoid big food stores and tend to patronize local businesses as much as possible. While few venture out of their homes, I patronize local restaurants. It's actually very pleasant being to walk into the restaurant without a reservation. I tip about 30% because I know times are hard. Investments. Your wealth is your labor. Traditional investments focus on building your wealth. This is 100% bullshit. Your labor is your wealth. That is it. You need to store your labor so you can use it later. Unfortunately, the financial system is as fake as CNN and Bang Bang Biden's election. You need to know this in order to make a wise decision about storing your wealth. Federal Reserve notes are quickly being destroyed in favor of a centralized digital system. I've put all my excess labor into my primary home and an apartment. I paid off my debt as quickly as I could. Traditional investments are essentially ETFs. I won't attempt to explain them, except to say, do not put any of your labor into individual stocks unless you know what you're doing. Use index funds with low fees. I have been buying my company's stock because I know the CEO and he's doing the right thing. I wish I could tell you the name of the company, but I cannot. The criminals are running a Ponzi scheme and they don't pay anything for capital. Us deplorables do not have this privilege. This is why I can recommend ETFs. The casino will stay open as long as possible. The market will keep going up no matter what bad news is going on, because it's rigged. Eventually it will fail. If you are interested in the financial system, watch the Keiser Report. Max Keiser explains the corrupt system very well. Please do not use "Robinhood" the app. Do yourself a favor and stay away from that scam. It's not a video game. Be very cautious of Bitcoin or any crypto currency. It seems attractive to store your wealth and even to use for transactions. Unfortunately, Goldman Sachs has already started manipulating the exchange rates and the government is regulating the fiat currency to crypto exchanges by requiring positive identification. This makes crypto transactions traceable. If you store too much of your labor in crypto, the government can cut off your ability to exchange crypto to your local currency at any time. There are tax ramifications every time you sell your crypto in exchange for federal reserve notes. I've stayed away from holding crypto mostly because of my uncertainty of being able to liquidate crypto without bad tax consequences. Causing a revolution isn't me attending political rallies trying to make a difference. It's me raising my traditional family and avoiding feeding the beast. It's me recognizing the enemy, understanding how the enemy operates, not giving the enemy opportunities to see me. It's me sharing with you who the enemy is so you recognize him. It's me explaining why I do certain things so you can decide what's best for you. It's you sharing with me what you've found works for you. We won't take down the enemy overnight by ourselves. Together, we will slowly cripple him and he will fade away.
