Non-Violent Means To Change US Government

in politics •  8 years ago 

I know some of you are frustrated, believe me, I am too, but I am pretty much to the point of not caring, so there is that. I truly believe there is not a chance for true liberty and freedom in my lifetime. Maybe at some other future point, through ideas, we can learn to deal with each other without forcing our opinions on people at the point of a government gun and violence. If we can't learn, maybe we can transcend that.

I also, believe that government is the culmination of our sinful nature, and our internal desires to control other people and steal from them, instead of just letting them live their life in prosperity and peace.

Also, people will always be sinful, and no amount of government is going to change that, in fact, the more sinful the people, the more government you will get under our form of government, and the more government will control and steal to satisfy those sinful people's urges to legally control and legally steal from other people. Taxation is theft, not just so the government officials can steal more from the people through corruption, but also, so people can get their government check, and that has manifested itself in a million welfare type programs, and yes, that includes Social Security theft.

Education

As much as nobody on this forum likes to admit it, children are subtly indoctrinated over a decade to this belief in government authority in our schooling, public, private, no matter. Young minds are so impressionable, and once they get indoctrinated, few can actually ever shake these beliefs they have put into their heads and hearts. I saw it with my daughter when I first dropped her off at K4, and now she's heading into the first grade. She is taught to trust government officials in her school or the cop is always the perfect good guy, he's infallible and is impossible of wrong doing. This is what she's being taught, although subtly. She brings home little cop badges that she gets at school from meeting these government officials and cops that come to her classroom where they teach her this stuff. They are already telling her to rat out her parents to school officials if she sees her parents litter. Fairly sure more is coming down that line. Global Warming, immediate destruction of the planet and death if she doesn't recycle, the whole alarmist Eco-Fascist line of BS. Saw it in public schools with an older family member of mine who is now 16YO. Maybe even if your parent has an illegal gun one day. Anyone who denies anything they are told in school is up for public ridicule, maybe worse.

First off, if you really want things to change, everyone that believes in freedom and liberty from the government must take over school positions. You must fight how wrong this is to teach our children these things, to indoctrinate them like this in the schools about government officials and authority. It is wrong. The statist and authoritarians have infiltrated and taken over, they've infiltrated every level of government, ever teaching job, every controlling position over school boards, school books, lesson plans, the whole 9 yards for many decades. So this is where we must start if we want to try and change this country for the better. As far as the parents of these children, they reinforce it, where did they learn this? Their compulsory education, private or public. We're going to have to train the youth in this country to think for themselves, to question what they are told, and to hold freedom and liberty to be the highest thing we can strive for. This must be taught over blind obedience to authority figures. Freedom loving teachers may be one in ten right now, if that.

Main Stream Media.

Most people on this forum know we can't trust the media, just on how they treat us legal gun owners, and their lies and propaganda so this doesn't really need explaining. Statist and authoritarians have already infiltrated and taken over the main stream media at all levels for decades. Just look at the cozy relationship Obama and Hillary have had with the media and those before them, and you see how bad this is and how bad it has gotten. Thank goodness there is alternative media that is willing to really report the truth and the internet is helping that.

With that said, if you want this country to change for the better, we're going to have to start to infiltrate all levels of the main stream media. We're going to have to bring a different message to the masses, one the government doesn't so well orchestrate and control as well. We also have to try to keep the internet as free as possible to continue to get this message of freedom and liberty out there.

I believe these two would be great starts for trying to take this country back, and I believe its the only way to take it back. If we don't do this, we're done as a country. Eventually, our economy will fail hard due to increased theft and welfare, socialism, communism, fascism, corporatism, whatever.

Violence accept in rare and few incidents of actual self-defense is completely immoral. Learning about the Non-Aggression Principle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-aggression_principle has further solidified my belief that all initiations of force, except in rare and few incidents of actual self-defense is completely wrong and immoral.

Let the government officials be seen to be the violent and immoral ones. Let the statist be the ones who support this immoral force of violence against non-violent people. Let people see how awful it is. Let people and the world see the freedom, liberty loving non-violent people as the victims of these violent enforcers. No matter what anyone says, it worked for the Civil Rights Era, and I believe it can work today on other issues as well. The Civil Rights people won. I believe we can similarly win today, even against this ever growing more authoritarian federal government. There are always going to be the naysayers, but I believe it won then, and non-violence can win today in similar circumstances. You have to get the education and media on your side, though. If you do not, you are literally doomed to fail. That's what gun owners don't understand about what is happening to us today. We have to control the education and the media.

Further researching Voluntaryism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voluntaryism has further shown me how immoral the initiation of force and violence is to ones opinion.

Also, research Agorism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agorism on how to have a peaceful evolution or revolution in this country without the need or use for the initiation of force of violence. Especially, not from the tip of a gun.

Let the government officials be seen to the violent and immoral ones. You take the moral high ground. First, though, we must get education and the media on our side. Without it, we're doomed to fail.

I understand many of us are already set in your careers and changing careers right now might end marriages and send your kids starving, so I can understand and relate. However, talk to your children about it, see if they are willing to sacrifice themselves to help take over education and the media to try to change this country for the better. There may be a chance.

This isn't a tomorrow type fix. This is a fix that would take multiple generations and it would take maybe 100 years, 4 generations or more to right this country, but I believe it can be done.

If we don't, this country is doomed. All our freedoms will eventually be taken away and the economy is going to be crap. Right now they are content just imprisoning or killing a very few when they want to.

With that said, if you try to get enough people on your side to violently take over this government at whatever levels you are talking about, all I see is you playing into the hands of the authoritarians and statist, because that will give them all the justification they need to clamp down, take away all our remaining rights, and plunge this country into a very dark place. They have all the control right now. You seriously cannot do much to immediately change that. Not to mention, you will be living a life on the run, a really uncomfortable life, you won't see your families or your wives, and you will not complete your goal, which is more freedom and liberty. Not to mention, randomly killing government officials violates the Non-Aggression Principle, as well as every other principle of freedom and liberty. Its also highly immoral to do, beyond it being illegal.
