The average man will not join any resistance or revolution until his property is threatened.
“A prince must be careful not to make himself hated, even though he is feared; to do this, he must keep his hands off his subjects’ property and their women. People will sooner forget the death of a father than the loss of an inheritance”

Short of actually killing people I’m doing about all I can or am willing to do.
Once open warfare commences I have a plan but I’ll be playing it by ear and adjusting as needed.
The best plan is to stay out of it and be ready to step in and take over once the two sides have decimated each other and can’t resist you doing it.
There are a lot of people, including some very, very powerful people, planning on doing this.

Why did God wait 100,000 years to send Jesus? Why didn’t Jesus tell the Truth about the 1,000 year old Sumerian Tales turned into Jewish Myths? There are many “Superman” Myths in the Gospel that damage it’s credibility; why didn’t Jesus prevent that?
100,000 years? Well he probably had to wait 94,000 years to create da Earf then wait 4000 more years (minus 7 days of course) for his son to be born, then, either Haysus lacked discipline or………the bible is bullshit used to control people who think that following the edicts of govt is a bridge too far but following the edicts of some ethereal sky spirit isn’t. It’s hard to say but worth pondering if you don’t have any belly button lint to mine as an alternative.
jr,
you know you shouldn’t drink-you always become melancholy and begin asking questions for which we have no answers.
Now drink a warm cup of milk and go to bed.
“Hey, let’s get serious…
God knows what he’s doin’
He wrote this book here
An’ the book says:
‘He made us all to be just like him’,
So…
If we’re dumb…
Then God is dumb…
(an’ maybe even a little ugly on the side)”
That sort of came up in one of my classes when I explained that the universe was way over 7000 years old because we can see the light of stars that started it’s travel billions of years ago. A kid said God started the light close to earth. I asked if he knew any other examples of God trying to pulled a fast one on us.
You are assuming a few things that can lead to error, among them that the speed of light is constant throughout the universe, or even that light actually has a speed, and things like quantum theory and even actual lab experiments suggest this is not necessarily the case.
If something odd is going on with light out there, it is a really big odd. If you doubt the billions of years, there are reliable tests like K-Argon decay in rocks.

It’s all a controlled burn and then suddenly, a flameout. Not much to do in the controlled burn phase and then in the flameout, things will happen too fast to organize. So yes, playing it by ear will rule the day.

As much as I hate most every motherfucking politician in D.C. let’s hope that no more nut-cases shoot at them again. They will just vote themselves presidential levels of Secret Service protection. Costs be damned.
They will parade before their constituents in a bullet-proof popemobile like they are Caesars. It would be a wet-dream for them.
If they wanted to go further and cancel the elections because of “emergency circumstances”, the new eunuch officers in the military would probably let them get away with it.

I can remember when I was younger.People would notice something that put them out,and say “They should do something about that” Well “They”did. Problem was no one ever bothered to think of who “They ” were”. Now “They” control everything.

Which brings up a question I had wondered–“What type of specific event must occur for you to recognize or start fighting a “revolution?'”
If somebody a**acked the Fed? Simultaneous a**acks on the F(e)d and C F R ? A few “superstar” sports players and rappers getting mysteriously sniped?
What would let you know that someone had begun and it was time to put up or shut up?
Perfect comment from a non-working Puerto Rican truck driver, if they had any introspection.
I am not watching thursday night football.
Well at least you are doing something
Lol!
The revolution starts when the bread and circuses stop.
In other words, when the EBT cards stop, the average person has no food and goes hungry, and the electricity is off with no entertainment.
The average man will not join any resistance or revolution until his property is threatened.

So what you’re saying is your contribution is restraint? 🙂
Part of it anyway! 🙂
Open warfare. In Spokane. LOL.

Where do you get your information?
I suspect you have fallen victim to deception, and maybe willingly.
