If there is a single paragraph that hits home with me, its this one:
How has your awakening journey affected your relationships?
That's a tough one. If I read into your question a bit, I assume you're asking because “challenging a person’s worldview” can strain relationships. Basically, I avoid that problem by accepting the limits of my influence. I don’t get to choose how people think or behave. I share what I know, back up my position the best I can, and then accept that their conclusions are out of my hands. We can lead people to information but we can’t make them think. Their choices are theirs to make, and as painful as that can sometimes be, it’s better than a world where “one group” (even if I’m a member of it) manipulates or forces people to think differently.
Thank you, Unbekoming, for an unusual and unusually well done interview; with an unusual and not well known enough liberty advocate, Joe Plummer.
Joe, good to get a glimpse of your personal development.
I don’t know if you two are Voluntaryists or have visited where it mainly began www.voluntaryist.com ?
I hope you will join us for session 47.The Psychology of Power–How to Dethrone Tyrants--your U.S. Saturday afternoon, Sept 23, and my New Zealand Sunday 9AM, Sept 24
Brexit did not strengthen British national strength, it strengthened the King/Queen. It keeps pushing programming about total surveillance in its media and lies through it's Royal Institutions and Colleges. Surprised that King Chuckles III hasn't brought back the rite of primae noctis.
Aaron Siri made an interesting point about the poisonous injections, which is that the drug companies are compelled to make the highest financial return to their investors, which is legal (but not lawful) at this time. Until we fix the liability issue this will keep happening, the profit motive is too great.
Thanks as always for the useful information. Reading this passage
"The Network knows that, in order to control the world, it must maintain “secret political and economic influence” and secret control of “journalistic, educational, and propaganda agencies.”14
Everything hinges on their ability to create and control a system of “instruments” that manipulate human perception and behavior. As the orchestrated and undeserved blind faith in their system crumbles, it takes their power with it."
It occurs to me that 1) social media would appear to be an essential tool in removing this blanket of secrecy and therefore 2) Elon Musk is presumably a "network agent" who is intent on preventing that - his strangling of any material from substack or any account that promotes it being evidence of that.
It would be very helpful to me & potentially the entire thrust of awakening others to have and share a resource which describes in step-by-step "idiot's guide" fashion how to create and build an account on NOSTR which appears to me to be the (bitcoin-like, both in the open-source distributed protocols and complexity in cryptographic elements of taking part) uncensorable platform to rescue social media.
When I tip a waitress/waiter -- ALWAYS in cash, even when I am paying trhe check by credit card -- I plant some seeds. I tell him or her:
"I always tip in cash -- did you know... now it may NOT be your mgr/owner, but SOME MGRS if the tip is included on the card, are now TAKING the 3-5% credit card fee out of the tip?! So, like, I I tip you $10, thge mgr only passed on $7 to you!
"Now I understand the mgr doing that, HE has to pay the charge on the tip, but you should know about it.... Oh, and have you heard about CBDC?"
(I've YET to meet a server who HAS ever heard of it!!)
"Sorry, gotta give you a wee lecture! CBDC -- Central Bank Digital Currency -- is the NEXT control mechanism "they" are trying to force onto us! You may too young to remember: usetah be, when you were buying something on a credit card, the store's machine would DIAL-UP the bank, and the machine would ask: "is this card good for this amount"? The bank would say yes; and the checkout girl would fill out the slip and you took your food home.
CBDC is not that. Now if you want to pay with your card (and you have to, because "they" are DOING AWAY with cash-money!), the little machine calls the bank and says: This is John, and he is buying three steaks, a half-pound of broccoli, and some toilet paper. Okay?"
And the bank answers: "oh, John already bought steak three times this week. No, no steak for John. The rest is okay."
And then the poor check out girl has to say "oh, I'm SO sorry, but I can't sell you the steaks."
THAT is CBCD! Tell your friends! Start using cash as MUCH and as often as you CAN without crippling your day-to-day life too badly."

This is one of the most hopeful pieces I’ve read in a very long time. Thank you.

Brilliant work. Once again. 💪🏻

"they forgot their gradualism"
Indeed!
