Building A Freedomist Movement

Bill Collier July 7, 2021

Basically what we want to do is to gather, equip, mobilize, and support a countrywide network of Freedomist Teams and Groups in every US Congressional District, every US County above 5,000 people, every State, and within each of 29 regions of around 12 million people each.

We are over the target, and the target is the freedom-taking “woke” cancel-culture agenda!

These Teams and Groups will interact with key officials, track and report on their activities, and organize virtual and physical activities to make the cause of freedom and the ideals of freedom visible.

In 2009 the Freedomist destroyed Obama’s plan to take over the internet by mobilizing hundreds of bloggers and activists. This is our pattern: we want to make it a regular and more powerful occurrence wherein whoever thinks they can attack our country or our freedom knows we will raise the alarm and mobilize against them.

Having people ON THE GROUND to actually mobilize other people, to show up and make freedom visible, is a vital part of this plan. A virtual-to-local activist network of Freedomists can reach and mobilize over a hundred million people and make the cause and ideals of freedol visible to almost every US citizen.

As a private network powered by subscribers and sponsors, this network is not politicians or insiders, it is people reaching and supporting other people for the cause of freedom.

Today, the battle is CRT and the cancel culture woke authoritarians, and we must engage that fight in two ways.

First, we must gather Freedomists in every US Congressional District as soon as possible. Our present email lists reach 450,000 voters, our goal is to find people who want to build their own District and State groups, using our platform.

Second, we must organize these Freedomists into 29 Regional and 435 Congressional District Teams of 5 or more people who take charge of their area.

Third, we must mobilize these Teams, which become Groups of 120 or more, to take decisive online actions and engage elected officials, the media, and corporations.

Fourth, as these Groups subdivide into specialty Teams and Groups, entire Freedomist Communities of people will emerge until there are hundreds and thousands of Freedomists influencing tens of thousands of voters in every Congressional District. The strong areas will support the areas that are presently authoritarian strongholds. But the days where a freedom-loving American is afraid to come out for fear of the leftwing authoritarian reprisals must be ended.

There is more to it, like pushing self-reliance and mutual support, creating legal defense cooperatives, and establishing local Clubs which are organized as Clubs and allow for social activities.

The Freedomist Movement is, if possible, going to be a free-market supported movement with the backing of paid subscribers and sponsors who wish to reach our 450,000 free email subscribers and our 80,000 activists.

We have taken the first steps, but we have far to go and WE NEED YOU!

Biden’s Actions Betray The Right Things He Says About America

Bill Collier July 7, 2021

For the most part, excepting the bit about us being a democracy, what Joe Biden said about how we define being American is essentially true. Here are his words:

“I’ve often said that America is the only nation in the world founded on an idea,” Biden said. “Every other nation in the world is founded on the basis of either that — geography or ethnicity or religion. You can define every — almost everyone else based on those characteristics, but you can’t define America. I defy you to tell me what constitutes an American. You can’t do it. We’re an incredibly diverse democracy.”

“But there is one thing that does define us a country: We were founded on an idea that, ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men [and women] are created equal…endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights…Life, Liberty, [and] the pursuit of Happiness,’” he added. “It sounds corny to Americans, as we learn this in grade school and high school. We’ve never fully lived up to it, but we’ve never, ever, ever walked away from it. Every generation opens that aperture a little bit wider.”

Basically, he is saying America isn’t based on geography, race, or religion. While our highest idea, that everyone is created with certain inalienable rights, among which life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, hasn’t been lived up to completely, we have never walked away from it. And, as he said, every generation opens that aperture a little bit wider.

President Biden is right.

His base of supporters, however, don’t see it that way. Critical race theory, which is based on totalitarian disregard for human dignity and human rights, is actually a deliberate walking away from this central idea. Radical, violent, irrational, and intolerant to the maximum, Biden’s rioting mobs which helped him into office after some serious electoral chicanery, are diametrically opposed to America’s great idea!

So how can President Biden rely on a base of supporters who don’t actually embrace this, like NPR who essentially denounced the Declaration of Independence as being “deeply flawed”? How can President Biden push CRT so hard when its central idea is quite literally totalitarianism?

(The chief aim of “critical theory”, of which CRT is a subset, like “Marxist Racism”, is the justification of totalitarianism.)

America as a union of commonwealths, small republics, and national peoples can become a diverse, pluralistic, free society of equals in terms of opportunity and treatment under the law where this great central idea reigns. But the growing authoritarian response, especially, but not exclusively, from the left and Democrats in this land to every real, histrionic, or outright fake (bogeyman) problem is moving us backwards significantly for the first time in our history.

If President Biden or others want to insinuate or claim that an American “nation” exists whose only idea is this, even though this is, broadly speaking, a great idea, then they don’t understand how national identity creates and enables a form of organic cohesiveness. This organic cohesiveness allows vast numbers of people to act in their own individual self-interest while serving a greater good and shared purpose without the need to rely on a top-down system of control.

Nationhood without strong shared beliefs (especially religious), values, and convictions just isn’t a thing. But in a country with a dwindling ‘Christian” majority, most of whom do not hold consistently to historic Christian orthodoxy, making being a Christian a condition of being an American is intolerance and untenable.

America is a country, not a nation. And that’s OK. If the great idea of this country is something like freedom based on virtue, liberty, and independence, then this is a good thing as well. It is the basis of a true “empire of liberty” that acts as a homeland and protector to multiple nations of people within.

I’m an American because I love this country, I embrace its big idea for freedom with liberty and justice for all, I reject bigotry, racism, and intolerance, and I respect the original spirit and intent of our Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights as the highest ethical and moral law of this land.

America isn’t a nation and it isn’t a nationality! Therefore, any persons or national peoples within our borders who start with respecting this big idea would fit in with and enhance this country.

There was a time when the American nation was almost exclusively Christian in character and beliefs, but never was it based solely or mostly on ancestry. Times changed and America has lost a national character based on Judeo-Christian beliefs and values to become this diverse union where citizenship and adoption of our great idea was all that made you an American.

Whether for good or ill, America is a country without a distinct national identity in the sense of the classical, ancient concept of nationhood. We are a country, not a nation, but a country whose core identity is supposed to be freedom with liberty and justice for all.

While for the most part President Biden said the right things, his reliance on a radical base who defy those things and his policies that undermine those things make his words as hollow as those who may have signed the Declaration of Independence while owning slaves.

Building Freedom In The Woke Wastleland

Bill Collier July 6, 2021

Woke. It’s really not a good word in today’s vernacular as it really means anything but woke. Like the SA under Hitler with their “Germany Awake” slogan, “woke” is the clarion call of totalitarianism. Woke means you buy into the delusional myths and bogeyman fears as well as the totalitarian solutions to these fake or histrionic problems.

We are witnessing the creation of a woke wasteland, especially in the schools, colleges and universities, so-called “press”, and in sports and entertainment. The woke ideology of bogeymen, gender-bending, faux “justice”, and, now, “outcome equity”, is driving an agenda of intolerance. You may not care about or even want to hear about the woke cancel culture, but it is coming for you. Saying things like “silence is violence”, the woke cancel culture warriors demand that you loudly support them and participate in all their actions or get canceled.

The culture and institutions of this country are being turned against the people who live here who never imagined they would see a day when, for instance, merely being white makes you racist and merely loving our Bill of Rights gets you on the government’s suspect list.

There is a solution, but it’s not to be found on becoming a lone prepper waiting for the zombie invasion or even in winning the next election. The solution is to build freedom unilaterally but not alone. The solution is found in something no less than a new form and adoption of “nationhood” wherein the “nation” isn’t a race or a country but a spiritual identity that reflects shared beliefs, values, and convictions.

This may seem a bit counter-intuitive because for many nationality is basically a combination of citizenship, as in being an American, ethnicity based on ancestry, or “race”, like being a person of color or a white person.

And, you might ask, “what does me choosing a nationality that isn’t my ethnicity, race, or citizenship have to do with building freedom?”

Nationality, when understood in the proper light of ancient blueprints, offers three tangible ways to build freedom: it offers easy organic cohesiveness with lots of people you don’t personally know but who you can trust, it offers a mindset for building freedom that defends your mind from the pollution of constant propaganda, and it offers the supernatural provision that only comes to and through “nations whose God is the Lord.”

When you adopt a new form of nationhood based on a spiritual nation, a nation whose God is the Lord and who ideals and principles reflect your own Christian convictions, you take the first steps toward unilaterally building freedom in your life in a way not even the woke brigades can penetrate.

Nationhood, as a shared identity and way of life that connects you with many other people, is the best way to overcome the constant pressure to conform and it is the only practical way larger groups of people can easily cooperate and connect for mutual benefit without relying on top-down systems of control.

Put another way, if you love America, as in the founding principles of freedom with liberty and justice for all but all within a more socially conservative and Judeo-Christian worldview, then chances are what we offer in terms of nationhood is actually exactly what you need.

There’s a lot to this. There is an entire framework and blueprint for an entire new civilizational paradigm with detailed prescriptions and ideas, worked out through decades of research and experience, inspired by some rather interesting and, some might say, supernatural encounters from whence a massive vision emerged.

The Bible says, “blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord”, and therein lies the heart of the matter. A nation is not a race, it’s not limited to your biological ancestors, and it’s definitely not based on citizenship or your political state. A nation is something spiritual, it reflects an identity one adopts as both an extension of themselves and as something they willingly share with others.

When you know your spiritual nationality has certain ideals, principles, and practices that reflect core beliefs, values, and convictions, you have the means of keeping garbage out of your head. You also have a way to connect with others and build meaningful ways to experience real freedom together.

In the woke wasteland you are either an oppressor or oppressed but the solution is always the same: let the woke brigades, their leaders, and their paymasters run your life with an iron grip. By literally choosing a new form of nationhood, with no past, you step out of your designated role of servitude as either a penitent oppressor or powerless victim of oppression.

We can begin a process that ends as whole new major sociocultural and socioeconomic structures and institutions emerge, from the web to your neighborhood, all outside the influence or control of the woke brigades. We can determine our future and not let these totalitarian loons choose it for us!

NEA Solidifies Public “Education” As Blatant Authoritarianism

Bill Collier July 6, 2021

Doubling down on the Marxist-based totalitarianism of “critical theory”, in this case “critical race theory” (also known as “white people are morally inferior and so is freedom” theory), the NEA wants all children indoctrinated with Marxism. This radical totalitarian front group enjoys the support of most public teachers and therefore represents the true nature of what is being done in these government-run radicalization centers called schools.

Cis white boys will be mercilessly bullied by teachers to accept their moral inferiority and do penance by voting Democrat when they get old enough and, also, by fully participating in the whole rainbow of sexual activity.

Critical race theory is race-based Marxism that aims at cultural genocide of so-called “whiteness”, teaches children they are either demonic offspring of oppressors or oppressed little angels who can do no wrong and who the white kids owe something to. The “solution” to the “problems” is, of course, totalitarianism.

The National Education Association represents 3 million public teachers, most of whom embrace the radical authoritarianism of this front group. The teaching profession has devolved into a “revolutionary” position from which to brainwash future voters to support America’s authoritarians, the Democratic Party.

Critical race theory, like the whole rainbow fascism agenda, is basically also child abuse. For the “oppressed” it renders them powerless victim and for the “oppressor”, well, their only path to some limited form of rehabilitation is to renounce themselves and enthusiastically vote Democrat to prove their evolution.

(There is no “white genocide”, the real aim is to demonize “whiteness”, associate freedom values with whiteness, then banish freedom for all, white or other, in the name of “racial justice”, but for the purpose of creating an authoritarian state.)

The National Education Association is euphemism for the National Enforcers of Authoritarianism, which is all this un-American, anti-freedom organization has devolved into. Most public teachers either love and embrace this totalitarianism and will it upon children or they go along for fear of losing their jobs.

This Marxist front group also went on in its recent Representative Assembly to attack heterosexuality and even capitalism, both of which it wants to banish from schools as much as Democrats want them outlawed.

There’s no telling what will happen if, in 10 years, little Johnny dares to say he only likes girls and doesn’t want to watch the naked drag show at the school assembly.

Letting your children attend schools run by NEA thugs is opening them up to serious psychological damage.

Taliban Resurgent As US Leaves

Bill Collier July 6, 2021

After the deaths of over 100,000 people, costing the US over $2 trillion, America’s two decade “war on terror” has resolved little and achieved virtually nothing. Fighting for the freedom of people who refuse to fight for themselves has never been a fruitful proposition.

In Afghanistan, the US has never enjoyed popular support for its “nation-building” mission and the Afghan people seem more desirous of Islamic extremist rule than anything approaching freedom. Contrary to the claims of politicians, freedom isn’t sought universally.

As the US has exited the scene, the Afghanistan government is crumbling and the Taliban are marching in, seizing the very weapons meant to fight against them. Regardless of peace talks, it is probable the Taliban will be back in Kabul, back in charge, in a matters of weeks or months. The reset to the previous status-quo may even see a rebirth of Afghanistan as the nexus and safe-haven for Islamic terrorism.

Pictured above, Kabul, target of the Taliban

But aside from the effort to punish Al Qaeda for the attack on 911, the last almost 20 years fighting a “war on terror” have caused some 15,000 US deaths (military and contractors), over 50,000 were injured, but tens of thousands more suffer psychological trauma, such as PTSD, from the failed conflicts. The damage to American prestige and our economy had been immense.

Another casualty has been civil liberty, thanks to The Patriot Act, by which illegal spying Americans and serious undermining of our values for freedom has occurred. Presently, as the failure of a “war on terror” is being whitewashed, the full power of apparatus erected to fight that war is being turned on Americans at home by a Biden administration who deems anyone who is woke to their authoritarianism as a potential domestic terrorist.

As the Taliban marches toward Kabul in US vehicles, they are bound to make ISIS look trifling and soon enough some US politicians looking to burnish their street cred will begin banging the drums of “nation building” again in Afghanistan.

Freedomist Fires NPR, Demands They Disassociate From Declaration of Independence

Bill Collier July 6, 2021

(Satitre)- While many were stunned by publicly-funded NPR’s woke cancel culture renouncement of the Declaration of Independence, the Freedomist was “thisclose” to issuing our own demands to fire NPR from ever associating with the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. Publisher Bill Collier said of this firing, “Every July 4th the NPR host would read the Declaration of Independence on air and every year it was just grating on us to know these people were not the sort who should be allowed to read such an ennobling document whose sentiments they stand against so strongly.”

The reading was always done in such a tone that one could clearly tell it was never meant and just never jibed with the true ideology that animates the people who run NPR: a blatant hatred for their fellow humankind on the basis of a woke cancel culture authoritarianism.

Collier addded that, “this year it was our intention to finally put an end to this blatant hypocrisy, the idea of them reading out this document just seemed like dishonorable to the original spirit and intent, a spirit and intent that transcends the writers themselves.”

Also, the Freedomist wishes it to be known that, while NPR quit their association with such principles as inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness and are openly embracing their woke cancel culture authoritarianism, it remains true they were fired. As Publisher Bill Collier stated, “They knew our official announcement was eminent and the paperwork was already sealed, they announced they quit before we could make their firing official, but, in the end, they were fired.”

As to life, they are for killing the unborn right up to the moment of birth and, paradoxically, preserving the lives of the worst murderers, whose henious deeds don’t match those of the unborn child who might be an inconvenience to its mother, which, evidently, is a crime worse than murder.

As to liberty, this one always draws a guffaw from the NPR crowd whose version of “liberty” is akin to “freedom through slavery”, or something like that.

Finally, as it relates to happiness, these people are too angry at ghosts and bogeyman to ever be happy and, what is more, they want everyone else to also be miserable with them.

NPR were also fired from associating with the Bill of Rights whose sentiments are as far removed from their woke cancel culture authoritarianism as heaven is from hell.

Their lame “justifications” for quitting, when they were fired, further reveal the vapidness of their intellect and the depravity of their moral character. The truth is, authoritarianism has no place being associated with the founding principles of freedom which built this country and which we still strive ever more perfectly to actualize.

The fact some woke authoritarians cannot see this and wish to deconstruct our past in order to destroy our future, and the fact public money supports these people, is another matter altogether. But for now we are at least relieved some woke authoritarian loon won’t be pretending their totalitarian ideology is in any way connected to our Declaration of Independence by reading from it in some simpy little tone.

We end with these two words: defund NPR.

A New/Old, Advanced Approach To Achieve Happiness

Bill Collier July 5, 2021

Happiness isn’t easily defined, because that sense or feeling we call happiness can come from many things. But in human terms and within the finite limits of our temporal reality, the kind of happiness that carries you through unhappy times and that warms in its embrace comes mostly through something our society has lost.

We live in a corporate and state controlled top-down collective (corporatized) kind of society but as isolated, lonely (atomized) individuals whose real connections of trust and affection are shallow and weak. We have a desire and felt need for happiness, which cannot be handed out as a government benefit or acheived.through corporate success.

But what we are missing is, basically, the warm, affectionate, and nurturing embrace of the small village or neighborhood with around 120 adults who are either family by blood or by choice. These extended multi-family household groups of around 120 adults, with families centered on a mother and father raising their biological or adopted children, were essential to the human experience for millenia, in more advanced societies.

This doesn’t mean everyone in the past had this, but it was the ideal and it was more prevalent.

If all action is a response to a felt need, then actual needs not felt may go unmet, which damages our psyche, while things we feel as needs but could or should live without, we indulge. The warm embrace of a larger connected community of people who consider themselves kin is a real human need, we propose, but it is not a felt need.

The advantages of such a form of kinship community are many, while the disadvantages, we further propose, are generally few. A kinship community would be a better social safety net, it would offer connections and networks to help you in business and your career, and it would be able to meet needs, this making you far less dependent on the government and corporations outside your community.

Would this change how and with whom you spend your time? Yes. But shifting your attention and time away from virtual to personal space and going from merely watching content to engagement with others can’t be bad for you!

Would it mean you have less agency as an individual? The answer is no because as an atomized individual who is abjectly dependent upon corporate monopolies and the government, you have no real agency. As a participant in some form of kinship community, you would have more say and influence over the customs and standards that govern you than you do now.

We have a conviction that totally rubs against this culture: a kinship community of around 120 adults who act as kin is in effect what wholly constitutes a family. These types of communites are the best defense against collectivization and authoritarianism. They are the best launching pad and social support system, and safety net, for individual fulfillment.

In our society is we ask about where you live and who you live with, the answer will tend toward a single domicile within a large entity, like a whole city, and as to who you live with, it’s basically the people in your single domicile.

Generally speaking, though this is changing, the sanctity of the home was such nobody dictating who could live there or interfered without good cause. But this used to be the case for a larger kinship community of around 50 to as much as 150 mostly related adults from a few (3-5) extended families. The sanctity line, the line where outside entities like the government or other entities rarely crossed, was further removed from the individual. That line was the whole village or neighborhood of mostly related people.

What if our society, or even parts of it, established the notion that whenever a group of people who were related or who felt themselves kin clustered together in their own village or neighborhood that no outside entity intruded without very good cause?

Take the fair housing law, which we support in principle. A couple who cosign a lease, for instance, isn’t told who their partner can be. Nobody is telling that couple who they can adopt or whether they should have ‘x” number of kids. But if you rent, lease, or sell space to the public, society has deemed, and we agree in principle, you cannot discriminate on the basis of age, race, sex, religion, and the like.

The kinship community, however, if it is viewed as a whole, single family unit, should have the same way of determining who it shares its time and space based on kinship of some kind.

In other words, we propose that a kinship community of 50-150 mostly related adults and/or adults who see one another as kin, is the first at-scale and most essential core constituent entity of civilization itself. In our view, this kinship should be based on actual blood kinship between related people and/or a form of shared sociocultural identity and values that is organically cohesive.

Artificially creating a kinship community of all white people is antithetical to what we propose. When you desire to isolate from or look down on others for things others than their individual character as human beings, then you are inviting intolerance and bigotry, which are authoritarian ideas.

Since these kinds of kinship communities today would mostly have to be made up of people who are not blood related, we would strongly suggest that forming any such community based on race is not a step in the right direction. Kinship with people not related by blood comes from deeply shared beliefs and values, not from shallow nations of race, which is one of the more absurd social constructs of human civilization.

The thing is, and this is the point, we propose that a kinship community of some kind is necessary and needed for happiness and for an advanced civilization with good morals and high culture. An advanced civilization strongly relies on the individual as sovereign within the nurturing embrace of something like a kinship community.

Today we lack this. We will have to reinvent this before it is too late and our final devolution to an atomized and undifferentiated mass of people within a collective machine is complete. What follows that can only be described by the scariest dystopian fiction.

What is needed for deep and abiding happiness that endures even unhappy times is the reinvention of the kinship community as the essential element of an advanced form of human civilization.

Glorifying Evil: Why do we call the SS “elite”?

Bill Collier July 5, 2021

The glorification of the Nazi SS troops, who fought in their own so-called “elite” units alongside the Heer, is terribly disconnected from the reality of what they stood for and were fighting to establish. In short, lionizing such units obscures the their true nature and intentions, which makes it more likely our future will see other versions thereof but only with different victims and different privileged classes or groups.

The goal of the SS was to create and maintain an absolute top-down dictatorship, to build a planned economy, to eliminate Christianity, and to exterminate or enslave all races save the fictional Aryan race. Unlike Wehrmacht soldiers and sailors, who may have not been as deeply knowledgeable of the true nature of the racist, totalitarian, Nazi slave state’s true nature, the SS knew full well and embraced that with gusto.

Every individual case is different, but the organizers and leaders of the SS combat units were, to put it simply, monsters of the worst kind. It therefore becomes immoral to extol this band of barbaric thugs as elite units. True, they were tougher fighters, but their unit tactics emphasized bravery and willingness to die over intelligence and efficiency. SS troops knew how to kill and how to die, but they weren’t necessarily the most efficient fighters: they wasted manpower and equipment in foolish attacks or suicidal defenses of no strategic value.

Depictions of the Germans in World War Two through living history actually tend to be more judicious in how they treat this. The goal is to show people something we must never forget.

It is true that German kit and combat gear was sharp and remains basically sharp today. I own many items, both original and reproduction, from WW2 and before, as well as modern, and in fact actually wear parts of these outfits, without any insignia of any kind, as “civilian” clothes. But sharp kit, which, again, I myself have no compunction repurposing, cannot and mustn’t be allowed to detract from the true nature of America’s World War Two foe.

My own love of military style clothing and accessories, from many nations and periods, and my love of living history, wherein I may depict an American, German, or other combat soldiers, doesn’t in any way distract me from the fact the Germans in WW2, especially the SS, were engaged in a war of extermination and were pursuing absolute dictatorship.

For some, even wearing a reproduction of this kit, even without the insignia, seems to glorify the “bad guys.” I don’t agree, I find this rather strict interpretation of these things overbearing, but I definitely prefer this to any attitude that says the SS were “elite” and not simply genocidal thugs.

Lionizing the SS in particular is morally repugnant to decent people who know what this organization of in-bred psycho thugs stood for. They are not elite, they are barbarians, criminals, and the worst kind of humans.

If we do not remind ourselves of what was done in history and what the beliefs of the bad actors were, we will eventually see some version of the SS emerge again to haunt our future.

Is China’s Lying Down Movement Predictive Of Future Unrest?

Bill Collier July 5, 2021

China’s lying down movement is quietly resisting the new Chicom rat-race mandates, but could it become something serious?

China demands productivity while the top 1% in China earn what the lower 50% earn and the authoritarian dictate of long hours without real pay is simply breaking the younger workers.

The “lying down campaign” is all about exiting the rate race. The truth is, no matter how hard you work, the cost of housing is so high, you will not be able to afford a decent place to live. While TFO Global paints this as a political movement, it may not be that simple.

Today’s workers almost all come from one-child families thanks to China’s unforgiving totalitarian “one-child” policy. They are used to pretty much having their own way, being spoiled, and not being asked to make sacrifices. They usually had two sets of grandparents and a mother and father doting on them.

But just as China needs to grow its own consumer economy and increase productivity as its population becomes older, with every one person now being responsible for two retirees, the cost of raising a family and buying a home have also risen dramatically, artificially. China now has a three-child policy and is pushing young people to reproduce as a patriotic duty, but these young people simply have no stomach for it.

Hence the lying down campaign. The idea is that just working real hard and getting married to have three children, all very expensive, is too much of a sacrifice and is materially impossible. Chinese housing prices in its cities is well in excess of the earnings of its workers, by a factor of 10-20 times in most cases. So lying down, putting the breaks on the mad rush to meet unrealistic quotas and exiting the rate race, is the only logical step.

This is not necessarily a political movement. Nobody is screaming “down with communism!” But the potential for this movement to become political, and dangerous, is not lost on the Communist dictatorship, which is actively shunning the lying down campaign as barbaric, unpatriotic, and criminal. Que the calls for rounding up the ringleaders.

These younger workers, all one-child policy victims who never had to learn to get along with other siblings or to hear a word of discipline from their parents and grandparents (who often lived with them), simply don’t feel any need for or see any benefit in working harder, much less having three children!

It’s hard to predict that this will be China’s undoing. The range of possibilities is large, the government is likely to find new ways to push conformity, to dramatically increase the birthrate and present productivity, and to even use robotics and automation, to assist. Moreover, the potential for forced euthanasia targeting infirm people and efforts to force older people to do some kind of work are also not off the table.

But this could become political, the countermeasures could not only fail but backfire, and what is now just a rebellion against a rat-race mentality could become rage against the entire system. A heavy-handed response could actually engender something deeper and more dangerous than people not wanting to work so hard or have so many children.

Canada’s Native Children Problem: A Symptom of the Ongoing Abuse Of Human Rights

Bill Collier July 5, 2021

Bill Collier- Canada has a long and ongoing history of the government dictating sociocultural norms at the end of a gun barrel. Today Canada is grappling with a horrendous “discovery” that doesn’t surprise anyone in the Native community: potentially thousands (over 1000 so far) of unmarked graves of Native children who died while in residential schools meant to brutally obliterate their culture, language, and way of life.

The Bible say of the Disciples that people will oppress them and think they are doing a service to God (see John 16:12), thus revealing the depths of evil and hypocrisy human beings are capable of. And with the cultural genocide waged by Canada from 1874 until 1996, tearing children from their parents and assaulting their Native culture at its core, this was the case. The oppression and abuse were done in the name of Christ, who most certainly did not author such evil.

What happened was children of Native parents were forcefully taken from their homes and placed into residential shcools where they could not speak their language, were forced to convert to “Christianity”, and were treated generally very harshly, especially if they showed any of their Native culture like language, religion, or dress.

Invariably, and perhaps owing to harsh conditions, some children died. They were then buried, never sent home, and often in unmarked graves or in graves where markers were later removed.

This wasn’t the government alone. The state did force these chidlren into these schools, but the schools were run mostly by Catholic and Anglican churches, with 70% being Catholic. Thus, the institutions affiliated with Christ, and in His Name, actively conducted this cultural genocide in a brutal manner. This let to many premature deaths and the traumatic experiences scarred generations of Native children.

Those who would oppress others need only the slightest pretense. The pretense here was an alleged need to assimilate Native children into the broader Canadian society. The people doing this may have convinced themselves they were helping these kids and, worse, doing a service to God.

As Canadians grapple with this brutal history, the question remains, has the spirit of oppression in the very name of things like God, or Christ, or Justice, or whatever, been exorcized from the heart of the country? With tables turned, it is now Christians in Canada who face “forced assimilation” through the “human rights commission” that forces acceptance of practices condemned in the Bible.

The same churches that went along with the religious persecution of non-Christians are now being oppressed and having what they say over the pulpit dictated by the government. That they may garner little sympathy for their fate is owing to their own history of being an instrument of oppression.

Canada has no “Bill of Rights”, and whether it is locking up Native children or Christian pastors, all in the name of forced assimilation to what sociocultural milieu the state favors, the long tradition seems to be a gross disrespect for human rights and human dignity.

The use of Christ as a banner of oppression is certainly baneful to the Native peoples of Canada and it is morally repugnant to any true follower of Christ, first because of the victims and also because it is a abominable taking of the Lord’s Name in vain.

Canada must search its very soul and ask why whatever its government decides the sociocultural norm must be always becomes something one either submits to or is brutalized for refusing to conform thereto.
