Strange Epiphany Today

I was listening to an interview where the history of rebellion was discussed. It dawned on me that early in American history any discussions or efforts that were pro-liberty or pro-freedom were done under the cover of secrecy and conspiracy...due to the threat of getting caught. We've had a good run. But, at times lately it feels like we're getting back to having to hide under a rock for many of our discussions. Look at those who speak openly of promoting freedom and see how they're treated and labeled. Anyway...maybe I'm missing the mark. But, history does tend to rhyme.

    My proposal wouldn't need Pi's or anything other than the phones in your hand. There is the hub thing I'd have to design out but the phones are all controlled by big tech, you need their permission to publish and application as well. So, it really isn't doable. Ham radio and packet radio seem like a method but its slow, very slow.

    One thing that might be a seed for more of your brilliance is a product called the Helm. It hosts an email server locally at your site. It's not the ultimate answer but it could serve as a clue.
    My mind as a hobbyist says make your server a distributed environment on a Raspberry Pi "server farm". I am very impressed by your proposal.
    Another suggestion is using Starlink as the ISP. Elon Musk would be less likely to pull the plug on a free speech platform, maybe.
    Again I'm of fan of what you are proposing but I think you have the expertise not me. I'd be glad to help though. IMO the open source tools are the ones that could make this happen. I'd like to see Linux put some glue in Gate's plan for world domination that started with Microsoft.

    That's why I refuse to use Siri, Alexa, or any of those spyware programs.

    Just got done reading another article where Amazon admitted that they were giving Ring doorbell footage to authorities regardless the presence of a valid warrant.

    Had to endure a conference call today where the "consultant" was talking about the inevitable and not-so-future release of mandatory ESG scoring by the SEC. It nearly made my head explode listening to that crap.

    As per Tytler we are about at the end of our run - our 200 hundred years are up. Sadly, history is not taught in public schools as it once was when I was growing up. My favorite high school teacher is Randy Peacock. Mr Peacock taught Modern History which I found fascinating. He started with the French, then followed by the Russian, Chinese, and American Revolutions. Political correctness had not been invented. I am sure Mr Peacock is rolling in his grave uttering "WTF happened to people?"

    The Great Reset will resemble the great depression of the 1920's.If we let it get that far. But why are Republicans turning against Trump? He has the track record to mobilize across race with success. I keep hearing that he is too divisive. Media is putting that into people's ear. The fact that "they" are so afraid of Trump is what makes him the best hope for anything to turn around.
    I like Desantis but if he is chosen the political media complex will put all their effort into destroying him. If they succeed then who's left?
    Some of the old proverbs have some truth, like the one about horses and streams.
    And don't forget about Ran Paul, that guy has some stones. I'd like to see him involved more in national politics if Trump gets sidelined by the likes of Cheney and Mitt the twit.

    Growing up I lived in East Falls, PA. The Italians in our neighborhood grew plenty of food in those tiny back yards. You'd be amazed!

    I think all cellphones come from the factory hardwired for spying. I'm not certain if you crack the phone and load Linux or anything that you bypass the Permissions when using "free" apps. Apps are written to work only if you let the host rape your phone for data.

    I was looking at Linux phones but what is the use... Nearly all that I have asked the same of has responded with a similar experience.

    These people will remain anonymous, no need to expose oneself if they can pull the strings of another to take the fall.

    Look at the people that visited Pedophile Island, these are the minions. The people that need to be controlled, this was a method of control, willing or not. We need to find out who bank rolled Jeffrey Epstein.

    Once we start using the public internet, it's hard to do this. The FAA owns the sky, so carrier pigeons are out. The only way I know to be completely internet-safe is to rip the cable out of the wall.

    Where I moved to yes... Would you want to grow food in the intercity? How about next to the city? How far would you have to go to escape people that are hungry?

    We work together now, it's called capitalism, this is why they are trying to destroy it. I'm not being overly negative here, just aware of what is a head and being prepared is important. Remember that history repeats itself...

    Absolutely, I had not watched, searched, nor spoken of the Pulp Fiction movie in years. I love it, and I rattle off the movie quotes to my Dad because he cracks up when I do it. So anyway, I finally started impersonating the characters to my Dad and we were laughing. I go home, turn on my computer, and there's a banner advertisement to buy Pulp Fiction. Technology isn't free. I have an app on my phone Date in Status Bar. I like to have the date up there. Why is it 100 MB??? To display one number???

    Without electricity how can you access, without connectivity to your wallet, how can you spend or receive?

    I think a small portion of our population still believes the covid crap. The ones that do, are a problem.

    Solution for monkeypox – don’t have homosexual sex with a man.
    Ebola – Its not transmissible enough
    Watch for smallpox, which monkeypox is a variant. I think this will be the fall scare to vaccinate.

    By the way, the solution is the vaccine, not the illness. The funny part of this is the prime video service released a TV series on this same topic on April of 2020, it was already filmed and waiting when the pandemic became reality. Watch Utopia…

    Not only communication. The CCP is buying up farmland in the mid-west. If they control the US food supply.... we're DONE....
