I think we're at the stage where the quiet withdrawing of consent must become loud dissent, which must in turn become active, constructive dissent. If enough people had quietly withdrawn consent in 2020, I don't think we'd be in the mess we are now, quite frankly. They didn't, and that was the signal for the psychopaths to go in fast and hard. The most serious challenge we face now I suspect will be deciding what is constructive, and quickly.

French farmers tore up the pavement on roads into Paris, so the government backed down on their farm destruction, just a little bit. However they used that back down as distraction to pass a law criminalizing saying anything bad about the covid shots. We are decades past loud being effective.

Gooder!

Don't be surprised if your cynicism, no matter how well-developed, finds it hard to keep pace with reality.

Note how "climate denial/denier" is designed to piggyback off of "Holocaust denial/denier", the same way opposing Zionism/Israel is falsely equated with, and portrayed as "anti-semitic/semitism".

Any "science" that cannot be questioned is, by definition, anything BUT science. The fascistic climate-catastrophist and bio-pharma cartels are, of course, at the forefront of such anti-scientific effronteries.

Special thanks for that Lowkey video.

Thanks for the great post.

The path I choose to render the plutocrats obsolete and become increasingly immune to their various attempt to oppress, lock down and meddle in my life is the path of the ancients who blended their life, wealth, health and food cultivation systems with that of the Forest.

As I shared in my recent note, the abundance that we are offered when we ally with trees and share their seeds expands exponentially, empowering us to withdraw our support from corrupt institutions, feed ourselves and our loved ones, while also helping to heal ecosystems and provide for future generations.

I began my journey of withdrawing consent twenty four years ago in a twofold manner: one, to storytell in my local community of the importance of small scale mutually dependent self reliance, and two, to produce everything I eat in a closed loop system. My very condensed conclusions are that 'industrial' farmers are completely dependent on external inputs to maintain their toxic torture and that to stop them would require a managed transition they are unwilling to undertake (for example, there is no store of seeds that can replace Monsanto's currently, and we also don't know how long it would take to regenerate chemically denuded soils to grow them in,) and two, why bother, from their perspective, since the flow of taxpayer / corporate funds is a given gravy train one would be 'punished' for trying to 'get out of' anyway. Conclusion regarding growing my entire diet. Completely successful except for the requirement of money for things like property taxes and other items I wasn't wealthy enough to be able to set up to go otherwise off grid and so still had an electric bill, gas and a vehicle which, had I been successful in storytelling in my local community I could have bartered to stay out of 'money' with the sole exception of those property taxes I couldn't deliver a load of turnips in exchange for. And couldn't convince my local community to stop accepting 'government' 'assistance' because they COULDN'T as they had nothing to replace it with. So they CANNOT 'withdraw consent.'

A few years into this journey, during the Bush Cheney reign of terror and seeing their war crimes and learning about the complete dependence of my local community on either 'government' or punishing, threatening corporate contracts, and the rest of us unable to 'take care of our neighbors' long enough to get them out of it all, I came to my mega conclusion. Once and once only, we pacifists / empaths MUST become bellicose just long enough to remove Cluster Bs from positions of 'power' from which they generate our torture on purpose because our mental anguish, confusion, real or perceived lack, etc. is THEIR 'food,' and we know this because in the 21st century we've learned that they no longer need our money since they just print it up or hallucinate a new 'crypto,' lovely and descriptive word that that one is, and have all the lucre they require, endlessly. So why otherwise continue to tinker with us? Our misery is their food. WE need to starve THEM.

I'm working on becoming a better storyteller.

This is the first step. What happens after that is beyond our control but we MUST do it nevertheless!

Hi there Paul, just found your stack and plan to check it out in the coming days!

I was wondering: do you find that your readers are ready to talk about the You-Know-Who-Ish control of our governments and media and everything, frankly, or do you get pushback?

You may be misinterpreting my position as I make it quite clear that my criticism is of the Rothschilds and other authoritarian globalist zionists, not of Jewish people in general, many of whom share my views in this regard. And yet, inevitably, the system still deploys its tired old smears... https://paulcudenec.substack.com/p/targeted-and-smeared-by-the-fake
