[If you’ve not yet read Part I, or Part II, it would probably be best that you read these previous entries first - Admin]

In Resistance Parts I and Resistance Parts II, I presented several points. I’d like to expand and reiterate on them here and perhaps clarify a few:

a) you cannot change the system from within, all you’re doing is playing musical chairs as it is too entrenched and has too much inertia to effectively be changed;

b) departing from the system is the first critical step, you must stop feeding the beast;

c) leaving the system will not starve it or harm it, it won’t even make a dent in reality. But you cannot defeat what you continue to support;

d) leaderless resistance is the only effective (and remaining) method available;

e) you’re already a “terrorist”, and a criminal, everyone is, because in truth, this can be redefined to mean anything that they claim it to be, if they presently lack the definition, they can always just make one up;

f) real freedom is only dependent upon you, and how far you are willing to go to be free. There are inherent restrictions to true freedom in this world, but even so, most of these are only applicable if you choose to allow it. Most of us have chosen the easier road;

g) changing yourself is the key, it requires you to act upon (take action) of your belief, belief without action is useless and is not real belief, it is illusion and self-deception;

h) outcomes are entirely unpredictable, but they’re not always unpreventable. There are things that can be stopped, but not everything can be stopped. Outcome based “results” is a poor choice for ethical human behavior or action, as it destroys as much as it tries to create, therefore “results only” oriented actions aren’t really that useful and can actually be self-defeating. Realize it is the process that matters more, even if it’s just incremental;

i) joining a group or a movement is an exercise in futility, all you will have actually accomplished is to stay within the system and hope for minor or incremental change at best (arrange the deck chairs) within the system;

j) every organization and movement has long since been infiltrated and monitored, those that still operate and function are under tight scrutiny; those that aren’t, will be, therefore you’re better off simply avoiding membership or “joining” anything;

k) resistance is always personal if it is going to be the least bit meaningful or effective. Inversely, tyranny doesn’t require of you anything at all and can easily flourish by those who will do nothing and accept everything;

l) joining something isn’t even necessary anyway and ill-advised. Existing groups are trying to change the system from within, which if it actually worked, we’d see the results today. By remaining independent, you’re remain autonomous (and anonymous);

m) most “movements” are simply steam valves permitted the people, vents for their frustrations and anger, but they’re not accomplishing much and generally, never have. Abandonment of movements means you’ve eliminated a poor (personal) choice, removed a point of leverage and surveillance, and become autonomous and empowered (no longer beholden to the movement);

n) conformity never accomplished anything, real change only comes when we have changed, which is to say YOU. The status quo does not recognize or respect the individual and most movements don’t either, but YOU should, because it is YOU after all that must live this life. Therefore, non-conformists are the true seekers of this world and your generation. If you don’t know this already, you should learn to help them once in a while. Those that oppose them are engaging in suppression, freedom-killing, life-stunting coercion by force and threats of force, this is how they ALL operate. Recognize this for what it actually is, and stop supporting efforts to destroy the individual, which is the ONLY place true freedom can reside;

o) don’t expect someone else to do what you should have been doing all along, the truth is, what I’m expressing here and in many blog posts I write, is that you, all of you individually, are the responsible ones for “how the world is”, either through a lack of interest or awareness, or by applying yourselves in the wrong areas. You can do this by “blind support” of activities that are ultimately self-defeating (your “job” for example), or by pretending that past efforts are actually working when they clearly are not, or by refusing to stand up and put at stop to the evil in our world. Accept the responsibility for all of this, which is to say the sum total of your lives, and identify why we are where we are today;

p) if we really wanted personal freedom, or true justice, or anything at all, we would have it already. But it is rather clear, we don’t really want it. We’ve been quite willing to settle for less, as has every generation before us. And less is indeed what we got, year by year. Now we’re facing some hard choices — let it go on, or actually do something about it. If you let it go on (or keep pretending that there isn’t a serious problem), then you’ll just pass the problems on to your kids. If you do something about it, then you’ll have to wise up and fully accept what this means, and what works and what doesn’t work and why;

q) nothing is free in this life, everything comes at a price, even the smallest choices. Most of us have been presented with few true choices, what we have instead is a smörgåsbord of sanitized selections, preprocessed and pre-approved for our consumption. These are not choices, therefore learn to think outside of these little boxes you’ve been permitted to gaze upon;

r) anything you “choose to do” is entirely up to you and always was. Nobody else can take or accept the responsibility for your actions or inactions. The double-edged sword here states that you will be cut to ribbons either way. Stand still and silent and you’ll be sliced to pieces anyway. Take action and charge of your life and you will still die. Most will choose the former, under the illusion that this is the “better” or safer path, never realizing that they’ve guaranteed their own destruction and that of everything else. They’re sheep, and they live in a slaughterhouse. The latter path is the unknown outcome in reality, no one can truly say what the results may be, but the illusion even this holds is that it will establish something better. This may not be true, it would only be different;

s) people are predictable, so is history, events, actions, results, consequences and so much more. Different can be good and sometimes so very, very necessary. But what we need to ask ourselves is simply this, “are we on the path that we want to be?” If not, then change something, because only you can do this;

t) the next time you’re confronted with evil, do something different then you’ve done before;

u) life is not about “just getting by”, or “go along to get along”, it’s about actually living. This caricature of existence that we have today that is commonly accepted as “life” and the argument that many make to “get used to it” needs to be categorically rejected for the lie that it is, because if this unfeeling, uncaring and uninterested existence of human drudgery and endless repation is the “life” that so many embrace, then we are already dead within and simply await our fates;

v) nobody is going to respect you for telling the truth or living the truth, you’re going to hated, ostracized and outcast. If you need to “get used to something”, let it be this — tell the truth and don’t stop telling the truth. Now you’re finally living;

w) don’t assume or even believe that anything you do is actually going to make “a difference”. It might, but probably not, as there is too much going on, too much inertia, too much deadness, too much lifelessness and too little interest in whatever it is you’re doing or about to do to change much of anything at all. However, this is absolutely irrelevant, because you’re now living a life worth living, by accepting your responsibilities and the truth that comes with them;

x) do what you have to do without asking, nobody needs “permission”, it’s your life after all, come to accept it and what it means to be a live;

y) don’t worry about the “difference” you are making or aren’t making, the truth is, this is irrelevant, do what is right, proper, good, moral and just, but realize that those terms probably don’t mean what you may have been taught, because you and I were taught to abdicate the responsibility that those terms convey to someone other then yourself, this is a lie;

z) when you do the right thing, oftentimes you’re going to be hated for it, because our world is so twisted and warped it cannot even recognize rightness anymore, moral reprobates abound everywhere and are found in all walks of life these days, especially in the halls of power and ‘authority’. Don’t expect them or anyone else to thank you or support you, they won’t, their vested interest is to do the exact opposite to you.

Stay true to your principles and make sure you’re on a firm foundation when you step out, because it is very easy to lose your way if you are not grounded and clear thinking. Be careful who you talk to, you’ll need to keep your own counsel most of the time, and you will find that this is not only safer for you, but you’re the only one who is capable of even keeping up with the change going on within you. Trying to explain this to someone else is exhausting and at times, frustrating. Just be true to yourself in all things, the rest tends to fall in place as a result of that.

Due the nature of humanity, true freedom and liberty can really never be truly achieved, but this changes nothing. Liberty always requires a constant resistance to the gradual encroachments against it. Resistance is the only abrasive that slows down this gradual slide to tyranny.

The United States is now a full-blown fascist nation that will practice whatever levels of tyranny and abuse it deems fit. The media and the government and big business are all in collusion to keep up the pretense that “the land of the free” is yet still a nation of laws and justice, but countless tens of thousands of examples can be brought forth to expose the factual accounts of how this claim is a complete farce.

When tyranny flourishes, resistance needs to becomes more and more abrasive and will always find a ready cause. Resistance would not be necessary if there was true liberty. This is not a fight we started, but one that was placed on our shoulders, simply because those before us refused.

One resistance activist winds up doing all the work of a million sloths, he is the real freedom fighter, a modern ‘insurgent’ that can no longer tolerate injustice. He is no longer chained by the illusions of ‘freedom’ or material excess, he is as free as any man (or woman) can ever be.
