Sound of Freedom Is Hard to Watch. Here’s Why We Need to See It Anyway.

We had only been to one movie in a movie theater in the last five years. But, when the regime media tells me not to see a movie because it is based on a Qanon conspiracy theory, I know it’s my obligation to see it. We went to a showing this afternoon and the the theater was packed. By the end there wasn’t a dry eye in the theater. An extremely moving and depressing film. The level of evil and depravity in this world, mostly among the rich and powerful, must be fought with all our might. Seeing this movie is a first step, but then we have to do whatever it takes to expose these vile degenerates and stop this wickedness.

P.S. This movie was finished five years ago and DISNEY refused to release it. Shocking that those woke pedophiles didn’t want to expose the truth about child trafficking.

The movie Sound of Freedom was both one of the best and worst movies I’ve ever seen.  Best because the story was interesting, the protagonists were likable and engaging, and the plot moved quickly. But the worst part is that it was also very hard to watch because I went into the theater knowing that the movie is largely true.

The movie starts off with the kidnapping of a brother and sister from Honduras by a young woman posing as a talent agent.  You then see the American Homeland Security agent, Tim Ballard, recover the little boy.  After the little boy’s rescue, he asks Tim if he can find his sister, too, and most of the movie involves Tim trying to find out what happened to the little girl.

It’s an action story of a man trying to put a family back together; it’s also a story of Tim Ballard’s personal journey in leaving the security of a government job to do what he believes is right.

Here’s some background.

I watched Jordan Peterson’s interview with both Tim Ballard and Jim Caviezel, who plays Tim in the movie, and I recommend it because it adds a bit of depth to what was going through Tim’s mind.  Tim’s wife is only a very minor character in the movie, but in his interview with Jordan Peterson, Tim tells Jordan that she was actually one of the major drivers behind his actions.

 

Tim is a devout Mormon and had six children of his own at the time he was trying to track down the little girl from Honduras.  When it became clear that trying to find her would mean leaving his government job, he tells Jordan he almost wanted his wife to tell him to just come home.  Instead, she asked what he’d do if one of their children was missing, and told him, “I’m not going to allow you to jeopardize my salvation by not doing this.”  Tim’s wife said she was willing to live in a tent if that was what it took for them to live with clean consciences.

Here are some key takeaways from Sound of Freedom.

This movie provided so much food for thought it’s hard to know where to start.

The movie, combined with the Jordan Peterson interview, struck me in that it really shows what a strong marriage between two people firm in their beliefs can accomplish in society.  I’ve been divorced for a long time, though, so maybe that’s made me more impressed by the couples who do get it right.

More than this, the movie shows how easy it is for little children to be dragged around, unnoticed, through seedy harbors and party towns and sometimes into the background of American living.  The little boy is rescued at a checkpoint between the U.S.-Mexican border when it was more secure.  Tim Ballard says in multiple interviews that this is how it actually happened; they had a photo of the little boy and his sex-offending “guardian,” and so were able to throw the offender in jail and reunite the little boy with his dad.

But this event took place ten years ago. Our borders are a sieve now, and things have changed.

In an interview with Redacted,  Tim Ballard talks about how our border policies under Biden have made the problem of child exploitation so much worse.  Because the border has been so much more open, more people are willing to take risks in heading toward the border.

Many smugglers work with “sponsors” in the U.S.  They write down a name or phone number and pin it to a child’s shirt.  When they arrive in the U.S., government employees turn the children over to these “sponsors,” who will put the children to all kinds of work.

Tim Ballard is not the only person making these claims. Tara Lee Rodas, who worked at an intake site in California, came forward and testified to Congress that this was happening.

We think that we’re being nice by letting everyone into the States, but we aren’t.  There is absolute chaos at our southern border.  And chaos engenders atrocities.

The thriving business of human trafficking

Human traffickers have been making more than $14 million per day smuggling people through the Mexican-American border. Human trafficking is the fastest-growing international crime trade, generating about $16 trillion per year worldwide.

Some places are trying to tackle this.  A great deal of prostitution-related crime occurs in hotels. In 2019, Florida required hotels to watch out for trafficking schemes, and in 2023, they cut the time for hotels to get into compliance in half before issuing fines.

Other places just won’t admit it’s a real problem.  California is one of the largest sites for human trafficking in the United States, and yet California Democrats just killed a bill that would make human trafficking a felony.

Human trafficking is big business, and it goes to the top of society.  Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislane Maxwell are probably the most famous, and they were known for hobnobbing with the likes of Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew.

And maybe that’s why the MSM hates this movie.

Which probably explains why this movie ran into so many problems.  It took five years to be released.  The script was actually written back in 2015, and they finished filming in 2018.  After the movie was filmed, the producers made a distribution deal with 20th Century Fox.  However, in 2019 Disney purchased 20th Century Fox, and they sat on the movie.  In 2023, Angel Studios obtained distribution rights, which is why we can see it in the theaters now.

Now that it has been released, audiences love it. Sound of Freedom has a 100% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.  It even has a 77% critic score, which is somewhat surprising given all the negative press attention it’s received.

CNN claimed the movie fed into QAnon conspiracy theories despite the fact that human trafficking is a well-documented problem.

Oh, wait, CNN fired high-level employees Chris Cuomo, John Griffin, and Rick Saleeby after they were all arrested for crimes involving children.  Maybe it’s not so surprising that the network is trashing a movie that portrays child molesters as the bad guys, after all.

It makes me wonder what Rolling Stone has to hide. They called Sound of Freedom a “superhero movie for dads with brainworms.”

 We are at a strange time in American history.

When I was young, being in a homosexual relationship was scandalous.  You could lose your job over that.  When same-sex marriage was legalized nationwide, most people didn’t have a problem with it. I think a lot of us knew gay people that had some legitimate complaints surrounding health insurance and power of attorney for their partners, and it didn’t seem unreasonable to allow them access to the same kinds of benefits heterosexual couples enjoyed.

The trans movement’s been weirder.  There’s not a specific set of legal privileges they want access to. Instead, they want other people to recognize their ideas about gender identity and play into their fantasies.  The destruction of women’s spaces by letting biological men into women’s bathrooms and women’s sports leagues has turned the issue from ideological to physical.

And it’s still not stopping.  It hasn’t been enough to destroy sexual norms and women’s sports.  Have you seen the drag marchers chanting, “We’re here, we’re queer, we’re coming for your children”?   They’re not joking.  People with a wide variety of sexual preferences have always been around, but for a long time, behaviors were limited by cultural and religious norms.  Those have been destroyed.

As I child, I had limited experience with some people that just assumed, “Well, kids that age don’t really understand anyway.”  There are more perverts out there than most people want to admit.  The majority of the population is not particularly violent or perverted, but they will just look away when confronted with ugly things.

Sound of Freedom begs people not to look away.

In case you were concerned, there are no scenes whatsoever of violence against children in the movie.  They just do a really good job of having Jim Caviezel look upset at the right times, and the child actors also do a good job of looking scared at the right moments so that you can tell what’s going on without actually seeing it.

At one point in the movie, when Tim Ballard is trying to convince some wealthy individuals to help him, he tells them that child sex trafficking is the highest growing international crime syndicate, already passing up weapons dealing and soon to pass the drug cartels.  He also tells them that, if it is not stopped, the pain of these children will spread until it reaches everything until it touches even the people that think they cannot be touched.

You really should see it, though you might want to buy your tickets early.  I went during the middle of the week, thinking I didn’t need to worry about finding a seat, but the theater was packed.  If you get inspired to take some kind of action or support Tim Ballard’s charity, that’s great.

If not, it’s still a really good action movie.

Have you seen Sound of Freedom?

Have you seen the movie? What did you think of it? If not, do you plan to do so? Why or why not? Do you have any thoughts on why the MSM is so adamantly opposed to the movie?

I see this is a movie that many are seeing and are very emotional about it. The movie is clearly designed to pull heartstrings. (I understand why.)

There are those trying to censor the movie…which creates more demand, usually.

Normally, when you have an advocate create a piece for awareness there is some kind of Call to Action.

Those who saw the movie….please tell me what the Call to Action was in this movie. Be specific please.

That’s an excellent point. My mom said there was a QR code that if you scanned it brought you to a site where you could donate money so other people “who couldn’t afford to pay” could see it. She donated $75. I question whether it was a scam or not, but I don’t know.

Own Benjamin says that many girls (read: young women) who enter the sex trade and pornography were sexually abused as children, so the adult film industry could be said to be based on early sexual abuse. Maybe.

But in any case, if there were one single thing that we could so as a people/country together that would begin to make huge difference in the world with regard to sexual abuse and the sexualuzation of women, girls, and children, it would be making pornographers subject to immediate execution along with those who distribute, finance, profit, and assist them.

Pornography is the energetic trap where healthy sexual polarity and energies gets monetized- turned into money and profit – and the healthy sexual nature of women gets hijacked from motherhood to prostitution, effectively.

It would be here that I might note that the political group we are supposed to demonize and hate (the NSDAP government of Germany) was the only one in my memory to:

1) value and honor motherhood for women.

2. End all pornography.

3. Execute abortionists.

4. End usury and Rothschild Central Banking as well as destroy Freemasonry Halls.

5. Lots more.

Any serious Call to Action would focus on pornography, sex trafficking, OnlyFans, which all are mockery and insults against God and both sexes. They weeken and destroy the prime energetic driver – the sexual polarities which make boys into men and girls into women and couples into families. Immediate execution would be reasonable, IMHO.

Any other “Call to Action”, i.e. donate money, lobby for new laws, expand federal agencies, pray for the children is complete bullshit. Action is the answer, and God provides for those who take action.

Emotional ism for its own sake is just manipulation and catharsis. I think a possible call to action could be “become cohesive and form a Nationalist Western Restorative Traditionalist movement that uses applied force.”

Where are the lone wolves we hear so much about?

Very, very interesting. So, no clearly defined Call to Action other than to get your info & money to make the movie available to others? Very strange for such an important cause to not have a clearly defined CtA.

Maybe they’re new to advocacy?? 🤔

(I know your mom has a heart of gold, btw.)

Ep. 1050 How State and Society Invented Adolescence, and Screwed Up Young People

.
Adolescence is a relatively recent thing in human history — a period of years between the constraints of childhood and the responsibilities of adulthood. This irresponsible period of adolescence is artificially extended by long years of education, much of it wasted on frivolities. Tenure extends adolescence even further for teachers and professors. ~ Thomas Sowell

“I’ve noticed a fascinating phenomenon in my thirty years of teaching: schools and schooling are increasingly irrelevant to the great enterprises of the planet. No one believes anymore that scientists are trained in science classes or politicians in civics classes or poets in English classes. The truth is that schools don’t really teach anything except how to obey orders. This is a great mystery to me because thousands of humane, caring people work in schools as teachers and aides and administrators, but the abstract logic of the institution overwhelms their individual contributions. Although teachers to care and do work very, very hard, the institution is psychopathic — it has no conscience. It rings a bell and the young man in the middle of writing a poem must close his notebook and move to a different cell where he must memorize that humans and monkeys derive from a common ancestor.”
― John Taylor Gatto, Dumbing Us Down: The Hidden Curriculum of Compulsory Schooling

“Our form of compulsory schooling is an invention of the State of Massachusetts around 1850. It was resisted — sometimes with guns — by an estimated eighty percent of the Massachusetts population, the last outpost in Barnstable on Cape Cod not surrendering its children until the 1880s, when the area was seized by militia and children marched to school under guard.”
― John Taylor Gatto, Dumbing Us Down: The Hidden Curriculum of Compulsory Schooling
https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/516764-dumbing-us-down-the-hidden-curriculum-of-compulsory-schooling

Excessive arbitrary authoritarianism from self-professed experts prevents real education by the living source of knowledge. All of this is institution-based, and institutions are maintained by imperfect, non-omniscient, and criminal humans. The single greatest action necessary is withdrawal of consent to the institutions in our lives, which only act as amplifiers for the ambitions of the sociopathocracy:

“Tim’s wife said she was willing to live in a tent if that was what it took for them to live with clean consciences.”

I would ask if anyone here is willing to live in jail for the rest of their lives in order to have a clean conscience? What should we all do if/when confronted with evil? IMO, that is the only way we clean this place up. Can you do it? Can I do it? We will only know if/when we come face to face with this evil.

You spend any time in jail at all and you’re definitely going to be confronted by evil, so that doesn’t seem to be the answer.

You’ll be confronted by evil the second the cops arrive on the scene. Lather, rinse, repeat.
