EU Picks France Over America in Submarine Conflict

Mark Clouse September 27, 2021

After the United States essentially negated a multimillion dollar deal with France and Australia when it gifted Australia better submarines than the ones Australia was set to buy, the EU has take the side of France in the affair ,who remains a disgruntled broker.

The mere choice of taking a public side by the EU is news in and of itself, but choosing France over America while doing so is a pretty strong message that Europe no longer wishes to mostly reflect American foreign policy.

This most likely is the fruit of a perception from Europe that America no longer represents the fundamental economic power of the world anymore. With China, and even India, rising in economic signficance, opportunities for economic winfall are increasingly no more overwhelmingly American.

UNITED NATIONS, Sept 20 (Reuters) – European Union foreign ministers expressed support and solidarity with France on Monday during a meeting in New York to discuss Australia’s scrapping of a $40 billion submarine order with Paris in favor of a U.S. and British deal.

Speaking after the closed-door meeting on the sidelines annual U.N. gathering of world leaders, EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said “more cooperation, more coordination, less fragmentation” was needed to achieve a stable and peaceful Indo-Pacific region where China is the major rising power.

Australia said last week it would cancel an order for conventional submarines from France and instead build at least eight nuclear-powered submarines with U.S. and British technology after striking a security partnership with those countries under the name AUKUS. read more

“Certainly, we were caught by surprise by this announcement,” Borrell said.

The decision enraged France and earlier on Monday in New York French Foreign…

US Air Force Secretary Warns China Could Gain Nuke Advantage over U.S.

Paul Collier September 27, 2021

While America consumes itself from within on the assumption that evil was inventeed by America and America was invented by white males (or something to that effect), her opponents are continuing to work on ways to reduce America’s power abroad and at home. China is the most powerful of these opponents, and is the one that US Air Force Secretary Frank Kendell was focusing on when speaking to reporters about China’s continued accelerated expansion of their nuclear aresenall.

Kendall said, “If they continue down the path that they seem to be on—to substantially increase their ICBM force—they will have a de facto first-strike capability.

For the people in the back that might not understand, he’s saying China might soon have a nuclear advantage over America that could allow it to strike before we we could respond. For the people leading the suicidal charge from within America, the DNC and its ‘allies,’ that means our lives are all at risk of significant reduction of the quality of life if China ever gets to a position of power dominance over the United States. If you think we white Americans invented evil, as many of you do, especially in the DNC coalition of American self-haters, wait til you get a load of the super boss that could replace America, China.

If you’re really against fascism, DNC coalition, then stop destroying America from within at the benefit of the biggest fascistic threat in the world today, China. So long as you continue to destroy American power while ignoring Chinese power, no American should consider you an American at all, or, even, a safe neighbor to live next to, for if the Chinese ever did land on our shores (something they hardly need do given how many Americans work for them already), your neighbor would consider you more of a threat to them than any Chinese soldier that would ever find themselves stationed here.

Whatever America is, whatever sins we have committed, what the state of Xi represents, has representeed, in the 20th and 21st centuries is considerably more human dignity and diversity denying than anything America has ever committed on any scale throughout any part of her history, and the DNC wants you to believe that no one has ever been evil before white men invented America or will be after we rid the world of this white supremecist demon. If you believe them, you’re not fighting fascists, you’re enabling them.

China could be heading for a first-strike nuclear capability, the U.S. Air Force secretary said Monday, urging the United States to accelerate its own weapons development to keep pace with Beijing.

“If they continue down the path that they seem to be on—to substantially increase their ICBM force—they will have a de facto first-strike capability,” Frank Kendall told reporters at the Air Force Association’s annual conference outside Washington, D.C.

But independent nuclear-policy experts noted that even China’s decades-old ICBMs could be “a first-strike weapon,” and challenged Air Force officials to produce evidence that Beijing actually intends to change its “no first use” policy.

In his second major speech since becoming Air Force secretary two months ago, Kendall called out various Chinese weapons developments as reason for concern.

“You’re gonna get tired of hearing me talk about China and the pacing threat that we face,” he said at a press conference a few…

Iceland State Schools to Teach Kids Science is the Only Truth

Paul Collier September 27, 2021

Iceland has essentiallly just outlawed religion in its country, without expressly making it illegal to be a holder of some form of deistic assumptions regarding the nature of creation, of being. By a vote of 60-3, Iceland’s legislative body has just passed a law that makes it mandatory for kids’ schools to teach them that science and religion are not compatible, and to be religious is to be fundamentally unsicentific, not rational, and thus not fit for human society, though that last part is the assumption people will most likely form from such an indoctrination of a child’s mind by the state using coercion as the means of pressing their beliefs on others.

So Iceland will become, over the next 2 decades, a laboratory of state atheism for the world to behold. We will watch a nation descend into madness itself as it strips the land and the people of their fundamentally spiritual natures and creates a science fascism that will be far more consuming of free thought and humanity in general than ever the worst of the theologically based tyrannies ever could, or even ever dared.

Watch as the birth rates plummet and the crime rates rise. Watch as the progressive dream for America reflects its ugly nature in the to-be brutalized lives of the Icelanders over the next 20 years, if this brutal experiment even lasts that long.

Iceland is now a nation of keen interest to we here at the Freedomist as we witness the theories of the fascist atheist become real in the lives of human beings now coerced to submit to the cycle of violence that such systems inevitably produce. But who knows, perhaps Iceland will surprise us and show that fascistic atheism can create happiness and prosperity for all, whether they want it or not.

Iceland To Teach Science And Religion Are Incompatible

Excerpt:

Reykjavik, Iceland – The government of this small North Atlantic country is instructing all kindergarten through 12th-grade teachers to teach that science and religion are inherently incompatible. Students will be instructed that even though a person has religious beliefs and engage in scientific work, that very same person is either doing science and/or religion incorrectly.

The Icelandic legislature recently passed The Science Protection Act (TSPA). The bill passed with a 60-3 vote, and Prime Minister Andrew Karnard signed it into law shortly thereafter.

“This is a great day for our country,” Prime Minister Kanard said. “We will protect future generations from the insidious nature of non-reality-based beliefs.”

The Left Are Being Played Fools By The Authoritarian Right

Bill Collier September 27, 2021

Leftists who are willing to use authoritarianism, beware! The ruling class playing you and pushing your buttons to make you feel so hateful toward all non-leftists aren’t actually on your side. You are just a battering ram meant to clear the decks and pave the way for totalitarianism. When this is acheived, all your alt-gendered rainbow wokism and social justice hyperbole will be tossed and you will find the new Caesar you ushered in is actually quite right-wing.

Caesar knows that all this unnatural behavior and the destruction of the birth rate caused when most young people in their prime are identifying as some form of alt-gendered experimental, theoretical, fantasy of human sexuality and gender will eventually lead to a collapse even they cannot escape the consequences of.

Basically, the ruling class are right-wing authoritarians using your wokism and cancel culture authoritarianism to distrupt society and pave the way for Caesar. You are focused on things that are non-essential to the survival of a civilization and even if you temporarily acheive your goals, you will find that Caesar will toss you like garbage into the dumpster fire that is the history of a dying civilization.

You can choose, and you should choose, your own sociocultural norms and reality in free association with fellow travelers. In a free and pluralistic society, you don’t need anyone’s approval to live as you choose, but neither are you owed their approval.

Your own desire to be free and to not be treated as “less than” is admirable and we support it. But your insistence that we be canceled because we find your choices to be unhealthy, which only means we won’t make them or applaud them, is immoral because it is authoritarian. What is more, you are setting up an authoritarian framework that, once built, will betray you even though you and your cancel culture screeching made it possible.

Another Attempt to Cancel Chic-Fil-A Over Marriage Stance

Paul Collier September 22, 2021

Is it enough to treat your neighbor as an assumed equal regardless of what you might assume or believe about who and what they are and what they believe?

Should we create a list of beliefs that should be affirmed, not merely tolerated, if you wish to remain in the open, allegedly public square?

Alleged “advocates” of LGBTQ rights are claiming that the position that marriage should only be recognied by the state as being between a man and a woman should be enough in and of itself to get you removed from the public square where value is exchanged between diverse groups of people with diverse sets of beliefs and values.

These groups are calling on Chic-Fil-A to once again be banned from entering a public market space because the family does not support the legalization of gay marriage.

The debate at the core of this issue has little to do with the debate about what the state should or should not do regarding defining and legislating the institute of marriage and more to do with what values should we expect to be universal in our public space for we who live in this land to expect to be able to exchange value in that shared space?

Where is the line between our acceptable diversity and unacceptable unorthodoxy? What are the standards that enable diverse peoples to exchange value with one another in shared public spaces?

Who are you to dictate to the rest us what these lines are, and what these unity standards might be?

To continue to attempt to use monpolistic market pressures to economically destroy your political, religious, moral, ethical opposition who are not in violation of any law that does itself not violate our Bill of Rights, is to invite the destruction of rule of law itself in our land, wherein lies our existing unity that makes our diversity possible.

At the heart of that unity is the lack of a demand by others that ANYONE accept you for who you are, what you believe, or anything else for that matter. But, in public spaces, we respect our unity, our Bill of Rights, and, regardless of whether we worship your God or not, we treat you fairly, transparently, as if your life mattered as much as our own.

The very principle that enables diverse peoples to coexist in public shared spaces, of respecting the rights of others to be wrong, but treating them as if they we your own nonetheless, is destroyed by this constant weaponization of mobs to affect economic assassination of whoever rejects the values you assume all humans should share if they’re humans at all.

LGBTQ Advocates Demand Kansas City Cut Chick-Fil-A From Proposed List Of Airport Restaurants | KCUR 89.3

Excerpt:

A plan unveiled last week to include Chick-fil-A alongside a mix of local and national restaurants inside the new Kansas City International (KCI) airport terminal is causing concern among LGBTQ advocates, who say it betrays the terminal’s inclusive ideals.

On Thursday, Kansas City officials named Vantage Airport Group of Vancouver, Canada, as the recommended concessions operator for KCI’s $1.5 billion new terminal. Vantage’s preliminary plan made public at a City Council business session included Chick-fil-A.

Previously, the new terminal had been lauded by local advocates for its steps toward greater inclusivity, including gender-inclusive restrooms.

But now those advocates say those steps feel hollow. The LGBTQ Commission of Kansas City, Missouri, released a letter to the city Monday calling on elected officials to remove Chick-fil-A from consideration.

Taliban Deny Women Power in New Cabinet

Paul Collier September 22, 2021

The Talibsan have failed to heed the call by the West and America to respect the rights of women in numerous ways, many of which have been documented right here. Once again, the Taliban have telegraphed their lack of comittment to seek to create a level playing field for people regardles of their gender, or even non-gender, for that matter.

The Cabinet has been announced, and, to the dismay of many and surprise of none, the Taliban chose not to select a woman in their Cabinet, or, really, anyone not part of their particular Islamic denomination who also happens to be male. The Taliban have eschewed the values of diversity and equality.

The Taliban expanded their interim Cabinet by naming more ministers and deputies on Tuesday, but failed to appoint any women, doubling down on a hard-line course despite the international outcry that followed their initial presentation of an all-male government lineup earlier this month.

The international community has said that it will judge the Taliban by their actions, and that recognition of a Taliban-led government would be linked to the treatment of women and minorities.

In their previous rule of Afghanistan in the late 1990s, the Taliban, who adhere to a harsh interpretation of Islam, had barred girls and women from schools, work and public life.

Digital Communication Revolution Through New Optical Amplifier

Paul Collier September 22, 2021

The backbone of internet communication is built on the power of optical communication. From Wikipedia:

Optical communication, also known as optical telecommunication, is communication at a distance using light to carry information. It can be performed visually or by using electronic devices.

Scientists at the Photonics Laboratory at Chalmers University, Sweden, have developed a new type of optical amplifier that could dramatically increase the capacity, while decreasing the energy demand and noise distortion, of the best that optical commication currently has to offer.

Additionallly, this breakthrough could reduce the size of these amplifiers to millimeters in size.

….Along with offering high performance, this new amplifier is compact enough to integrate into a chip just millimeters in size. Most importantly, it does not generate excess noise.

Ping Zhao, Postdoc at the Photonics Laboratory at Chalmers, said, “We have developed the world’s first optical amplifier that significantly enhances the range, sensitivity, and performance of optical communication, that does not generate any excess noise – and is also compact enough to be of practical use.”

“The light amplification in the project is based on a principle known as the Kerr effect, which so far is the only known approach that amplifies light without causing significant excess noise. The principle has been demonstrated before, but never in such a compact format– previous versions were too bulky to be useful.”

Let’s Talk Political and Economic Devolution

Bill Collier September 21, 2021

The “one big system” (OBS) and its one-size-fits-all approach is bad for society, bad for the economy, and bad for individual freedom. It also undermines the social fabric by atomizing individuals and replacing faith, family, and community with corporate monopolies, social media, and the state. It’s time we all, left and right, commit to preserving our Union and reaffirming our pluralistic and free society through a deliberate devolution of political and economic power.

Devolution means local and county governments, private people, free associations, private enterprises, and free associations like churches and clubs are where most resources flow and the most important decisions impacting your life are made, with your active participation. Devolution does not require a Constitutional amendment because it is actually already built into our Union of free and sovereign, and separate, republics.

Everyone clamoring for the kind of world they want to live in should take a step back and realize that, for most people, there is far more that unites us than divides us but some of the things that divide us are really things you should have the most say in at the most local and accessible level. The problem is that the pols and corpos, politicians and corporate shot-callers, need and want badly for us to focus on this all-or-nothing conflict over issues private groups and every local to county level jurisdiction SHOULD have power over through a consensual democracy, as opposed to indirectly throughout corruptible “leaders.”

As with Canadians voting back in a deranged Caesarist, most people in the Western world deplore and run away from freedom. They are coddled, babied, and neutered specimens, mostly without a single moral conviction deeper and dearer than base carnal pleasures. Most of the citizenry are not only happy to vote away their humanity, dignity, and liberty, but they are more than willing to vote away yours as well.

This happens because the way we do politics is on emotional issues and soundbites. We don’t do them on the basis of substance, process, or meaty matters that everyone SHOULD care about. If we focus on process and the processes that work we can, we should, see that if people in their own local to county level could freely and actively decide the rules and norms of their society then we could see real change. We could see where things were good and bad. We could compare and not run massive social experiments on the whole population that, if they fail, could crater our entire country.

If you can’t stomach the idea the community in the next county won’t adopt your pet ideology and make it a law, well, you are literally a symptom of a dying civilization that seeks universal sameness without change. The aim of a springtime civilization is to constantly seek the ideals of a good society through experimentation and competition, hence the decentralized nature of every early civilization in its zenith of creativity and spiritual energy.

If your vision for society is driven by what some see as a woke cancel culture extremism, what you might sincerely see as social justice and forward societal evolution, but you cannot brook the idea not every private community of people or every locality might adopt, then your deeper ideology is just plain old nasty Caesarism. Likewise if your ideology is what some see as right-wing backwardness, what you may sincerely see as proudly maintaining the best traditions and values for an advanced civilization, and you cannot brook the notion not every private community of people or locality adopts your ideology, then you too are just a Caesarist.

Freedomists tend more toward the social conservative spectrum in that we feel that civic and moral virtue based on Judeo-Christian values is one of the three core elements of freedom, which include a balance of virtue, liberty, and independence. But our view of freedom is that it must be adopted through a combination of freewill participation by private persons and it must be adopted in each locality through some sort of consensual decision-making process that is inclusive and that also tends toward promoting a free and pluralistic society of equals.

And ideology based on OBS and a one-size-fits-all approach instead of mostly through freewill participation by private persons and through some form of consensual decision-making processes at the local level is perfectly and utterly useless. It is but a veneer for Caesarism. Caesarism is in point of fact an archaic and barbaric approach by a civilization that has lost its creativity and spiritual life-force, a dying civilization no more advanced than a band of barbaric savages.

The devolution of political and economic power from the federal and state governments as well as the near-monopoly mega corporations is a radical necessity if we as Americans want our civilization to become a new, springtime civilization with a whole bright future as opposed to being dragged into the cesspool of history by a dying and decadent civilization.

We do not live in a dictatorship, but the spirit and nature, as well as the long-term potential outcome of all this authoritarian conduct and political intolerance toward their opponents, cannot be thought to be anything less than a march toward the demise of freedom at the expense of human dignity and human flourishing. Undermining the freedom of some undermines the freedom of all and without freedom any notion of justice, equity, and basic human dignity is a sham.

The radical left in America today conduct constant authoritarian and reactionary disruptions of normal social life. They impose fantastical and experimental theories of alt-gendered social justice. They do all this at the expense of freewill and freedom of conscience and association. This is destroying the social fabric. This lays the groundwork for a right-wing reaction that will likely be even more authoritarian and popular, which is very dangerous to the cause of freedom.

It is too easy to see the left as the bad guys and assume the right are the good guys, or the other way, without being critical of their means and processes as to whether they are organic, natural, and emergent or whether they are imposed artificially, unnatural, and dictated from the top and center. No ends, whether social justice or social cohesion are the aims, justify the use of things like OBS and one-size-fits-all approaches, or Caesarism.

Devolution of political and economic power from the top and center to the people in their private lives, free associations, and local autonomous communities, is the only way to reclaim our entire civilization from the clutches of a depraved and corrupt ruling class who are dragging civilization into a cesspool.

How can we fight back?

We suggest the following steps:

1. Becoming truly informed by choosing the support a fair and honest people-centered free press operation, such as The Freedomist

2. Rebuilding the social fabric of our own lives through intentionally rekindling our friendships and marriage, our faith through active engagement in religious communities, our marriages and family, and deliberately rebuilding the structures of extended family and kinship communities

3. Finding personal gaps for freedom by learning laws and methods that grow you preparedness and material independency from the ruling class

4. Intentionally creating islands of freedom by means of things like mutual benefit societies, mutual benefit corporations, clustered living cohabitations, and virtual-to-local networks for larger scale mutual support

5. Transforming counties into freedom shires through creating a local free press, creating local freedom clubs for mutual support, creating a parallel town meeting system to hold officials accountable, gaining the majority support of voters through a Bill of Rights Pledge, and securing the creation of local ordinances in defense of the Bill of Rights

6. Working at the state and federal level to promote an agenda based on the devolution of economic and political power in favor of the people instead of monopoly corporations and the political class

7. Using a Constitutional convention if need be for restoring the sanctity of the original spirit and intent of the US Bill of Rights to preserve our Union

These are the roadmarks we must reach on the path to creating a free and pluralistic society that is proof against the authoritarian overreach. This is a process and just as it took years to build the framework of authoritarianism, it will take time, intentionality, sacrifice, and hard work to roll back the advancing forces of totalitarianism in this land.

General Milley And Top Brass Are Caesarists

Bill Collier September 20, 2021

U.S. Army Gen. Mark A. Milley, enemy of the Constitution and traitor to the Bill of Rights, 20th Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff, poses for a command portrait in the Army portrait studio at the Pentagon in Arlington, Va., Sept. 26, 2019. (U.S. Army photo by Monica King)

The top brass of the Pentagon, an institution polluted with corruption and led by vainglorious autonamatons, are rallying around General Milley to justify his clearly irrational behavior. Milley decided that somehow President Trump was going to attack China and betrayed his country by warning the Chinese and “reassuring” them that, whatever Trump did, he and the military were the one who are really in charge.

America’s slavish devotion to its military is shown in a wasteful budget that sees our military overpaying for everything, without any real accountability, a top-down and overly logistical structure that has more non-combatants than warfighters, and a wokatariate agenda that displaces real training for gross social experiments. In short, our military is bloated by inflated prices for equipment and supplies, it is top-heavy and the logistical tail is now wagging the dog, and, finally, its training is dominated by alt-gendered rainbow fascism as opossed to warfighting.

It is upon this heap that the likes of General Milley practice their trade in craft, a craft more devoted to radical ideas about somehow reshaping human nature itself based on fantastical and sci-fi-like theories than protecting and defending the Constitution from all enemies. But beyond the seemingly leftwing nature of the military brass, whose ideology appears as anti-American as any foreign foe we have faced, there beats the rather bipartisan heart of archaic caesarism. The lust for notoriety and ego satisfaction drives these men and women of highest rank to extremes once reserved for immature college activists whose protests were usually aimed at phony crises and bogeyman that were never real.

In short, in scoundrels like Milley and all his fellow top-brass who are defending them, protection is not to the people of this country but, rather, to the rather authoritarian structures they are busy building. Today it almost seems a fifth column have seized the military and are using the alt-gendered rainbow fascism to corrupt the troops and destroy their morale and warfighting capabilities.

But looking on the surface ans blaiming the LGBT community of our fellow Americans for what is happening is missing the point and targeting the wrong people as villains. The present use of this rainbow fascism, where dissent is treason in the eyes of the brass, is but a means to an end, which is not to purge the ranks of anyone who isn’t totally on board with the rainbow, but to remove anyone who takes the enlistment oath seriously. The objective is to build a military who will obey the new class of Caesar wannabes without question, having been programmed to clap like seals at every absurdity crammed down their throat through “diversity training.”

We can predict with certainty that when the rainbow alt-gendered fascism has done its work and trained the troops to accept absurdity without question, the brass and their Caesar will discard these experimental fantasies about changing human sexuality and gender and promptly turn on the very people whose “rights” they once desperately pleaded were so fragile that anyone who deigned to cling to historic orthodoxy and disagree had to be canceled.

One cannot agree with or submit to rainbow fascism and diktat about one’s own thoughts and conscience and seriously adhere to the enlistment oath because all this is a grotesque affront to the Bill of Rights, not to mention America’s historic way of life and heritage. The era of a non-political military who honor the Bill of Rights is being destroyed by the military brass, but not because they in fact desire the rainbow vision they are cramming down the throats of our troops: they are simply using this to destroy the tie between military service and defending the Constitution.

After they succeed, and history warns us that they will succeed, all pretense of being serious about the rights of people to choose who they love and the such will be unnecessary. Some cause or reason will become the new pretext to end the charade, having succeeded in conditioning the troops to defend the brass instead of the Constitution.

Those who fear this alt-gendered rainbow reality where heterosexuality itself may become a pariah in the culture need not fear, this is so absurdly untenable that any society that seriously tries this would face such a dissolution of the social fabric it would quickly collapse, and this is not the goal. The goal is to bring society NEAR collapse, to so break down the social fabric that when the new Caesar comes to “fix” this “decadence”, the vast majority who detest the cancel culture extremism will applaud them even as they turn on the former objects of affection, namely the actual LGBTQ who mostly had nothing to do with the wokatariate nonsense.

In a free and pluralistic society people who desire to experiment with or practice sexuality or gender outside the norms of historic orthodoxy are free, but they can no more impose acceptance or adoption of their ways than anyone else can. Such a society is dynamic and always experimenting, the goal is to seek the ideal without assuming the present achievement is the furthest we can go.

These rainbow warriors for the LGBTQ and etc, an alt-gendered, atomized, and over-sexualized culture, are a fraud. They don’t really care about the rainbow people, they just want to establish legions who will be loyal without question to the brass. And the brass are loyal only to themselves.

The brutal truth is that the American military brass are all Caesarists whose commitment to the Bill of Rights is non-existent.

Building A Nationwide Support Structure For Freedom Builders!

Bill Collier September 20, 2021

People struggle to build freedom mostly because they lack a support structure that gives them connections, activities, and resources that cater to them. The support structures of our present sociocultural and socioeconomic system benefit the rulers and corall and manage the serfs, they are not designed to promote or facilitate things like virtue, liberty, and independence.

What does a national support structure for freedom builders look like?

We intend to use a virtual-to-local approach to building such a support structure, we intend it to be fully funded mostly through subscriptions within a free market framework, and we intend it to support a multiplicity of freedom-building organizations, businesses, and local groups/networks all over this land. Our conception ot a nationwide support structure is based on a virtual-to-local approach where people connect and gain insights through The Freedomist and other affiliated websites or virtual communities but they use a ready-made local charter to gather and work together locally. In essence we are talking about a country-level Freedomist Network that either plants its own local franchise groups, communities, and networks or facilitates like-minded and similar, but unaffiliated, groups of people.

This website is just the beginning. Our content is meant to both inform you of current affairs from a pure freedom perspective and to arm you with ideas and concepts by which you might persuasively engage others. It is also meant to gather a massive countrywide list of freedom activists around the country, focusing in having at least 1000 “Freedomists” in every single Congressional District who support our effort as subscribers. This is both our main product, intelligence and empowerment content for freedom builders, and our crowdfunding effort. Through subscriptions to The Freedomist our goal is to build more virtual structures and to hire full-time freedom builders in every state and Congressional District who can proactively serve and support individual freedom builders.

In the event, for instance, we see at least 10 local Freedomist Communities in every US Congressional District with 500 or more members per community, we will see a massive support structure that tens of millions of Americans can access that facilitates their freedom building efforts. We could see a time when, thanks substantially to this countrywide support structure and its virtual-to-local approach, over 50% of all US Counties and Parishes have declared themselves to be Freedom Sanctuaries, or what we call “Freedom Shires”, whose elected or appointed officials, school officials, judges, and law enforcement at every level actively embrace and defend liberty as defined by the original spirit and intent of the US Bill of Rights.

Many freedom building efforts fail because they attempt to “go to battle” without first gathering, training, and nurturing an “army” of dedicated and engaged activists who are not merely told what to do but who are empowered and given agency to decide what to do within a broad but cohesive and disciplined framework. Our aim is to build the infrastructure for a countrywide Freedomist movement of activist freedom builders who are empowered to pursue and build their own freedom and to activate local citizens until they find themselves living in a Freedom Shire.

Let’s try to visualize this support structure and what it will do for you and local groups of Freedomists.

The “end of the funnel” for this effort is a Freedomist Group of around 10-20 adults, a Freedomist Club of around 120 adults, a Freedomist Community of perhaps 500-1000 adults, and, through their activities, the eventual declaration at County level of Freedom Sanctuaries, which, when combined with local freedom-building networks that facilitate individual and local self-reliance, result in a Freedom Shire.

A Freedom Shire isn’t an entity per se, it is an achievement wherein a county parish, or city has both been declared a Freedom Sanctuary and has a local citizenry who are mostly self-reliant and self-sustaining without being dependent on any entity or system they do not directly own and/or self-govern. This is the end-goal of the Freedomist: to facilitate communications, knowledge, connections, and collaboration which would ultimately result in over 50% of all US Counties, Cities, and Parishes being both declared Freedom Sanctuaries and achieving a Freedom Shire state of being.

We cannot begin to imagine the political, cultural, and economic shift and devolution of power and wealth from the top and center to individuals and local communities that must necessarily and inevitably follow achieving this result. If over 50% of all US Counties, Parishes, AND Cities become like unto a Freedom Shire in their living, daily reality the ability of left or right authoritarians to corall people into serfdom would be critically undermined.

Let’s focus on a Freedomist Community organized around Groups and Clubs and what activities it would promote, facilitate, or conduct. The Freedomist Community would be responsible for the following primary types of activities:

1. Providing hosting and meeting facilities to engender social activities and gatherings among Freedomists and to engage the local citizenry in a Town Meeting system of instruction and guidance to all local officials and entities of any kind that hold a public trust (Clubs would have their own local facilities)

2. To create a mirror structure of all local official and corporate or non-profit organizations and entities whereby “Mirrors”, individuals who mirror their actual counterpart, and their 5-10 member Round Table Groups, shadow and track all activities and, at the behest of a Town Meeting of all Freedomists, engage those officials in a transparent civil discourse

3. To facilitate the development of a local intranet through mesh hubs whereby Freedomists can connect and communicate without using corporate controlled platforms, communications services, or the internet which can also be connected to all such networks via our own satellite communications

4. To act as and build a local people-centered free press using the RAWE News model where RAWE stands for Resource, Advocacy, and Watchdog coverage that is Entertaining and Educational

5. To facilitate the printing and distribution of a free “underground newspaper” that speaks the truth and mobilizes peopld to take positive, peaceful, and effective action for freedom

6. To provide educational, inspirational, and practical information and local training and cooperative activities that tend to help individuals, families, and free associations to be prepared for disasters and emergencies, to become materially self-reliant and independent, to be safe and secure, and to have legal protection of their rights, persons, and property from all hazards

7. To educate, inform, motivate, and mobilize voters to take The Freedomist Pledge, participate in local Town Meetings and Caucuses to guide all local officials and organizations, and to vote in elections based on a Freedomist litmus test

8. To find constructive and consensus-based solutions and answers to actual injustice and inequity which affects local people and through which the result is a local culture that is based on a free and pluralistic society of equals

9. To facilitate and nurture, through our own alternative Chambers of Commerce, a true free market, a Freedomist-based capitalism that puts people first as opposed to the cronyism masquerading as Capitalism, whereby economic exchanges are based on freewill participation for the profit and benefit of all (even if you don’t like the word capitalism, we hope you embrace our concept of a truly free market that is just and equitable)

While our goal is to work with everyone who will work with us, our initial focus must be on finding, gathering, organizing, and mobilizing a core of Freedomist activists around the country until there is a vocal and visible Freedomist presence in every US Congressional District.

Today we have a free email list of around 584,000 American Citizens and an activist list of around 78,000. We have far to go but we have a good start and with your help we plan to go much further. Our network reaches many thousands of people every day, but we need to reach multiple millions and we need them to be from all over this land amd from all major demographics.

The Freedomist is NOT “Republican”, our core is freedom with justice for all people equally and fairly without favor or prejudice. We are not “Democrats”, our concept of freedom is founded on virtue, liberty, and independence at the individual to local level and through freewill participation among equals.

The Democrats today lead the charge in freedom taking activism using bogeyman fears and utopian promises on one hand and suppression and corporate censorship on the other hand. But that could change in the future as the Republicans are today collaborators with this freedom taking agenda and were in the past in the vanguard of this execrable movement away from freedom.

To Republicans freedom has been basically limited to doing whatever you like for profit and the social consequences or social injustice be dammed. To the Democrats, freedom is mostly limited to sensual life in the form of sex and recreational chemicals while in all other matters their corporate monopolies or the government are in total control of your life.

Neither the Republicans or the Democrats are a pro-freedom party. Neither truly advances freedom based on virtue, liberty, and independence for everyone equally, fairly, and justly. The policies of neither Party could ever result in an individual and local community centered free and pluralistic society of equals.

By building this countrywide support structure we have a chance to stem the tide of leftwing and rightwing anti-freedomists whose agendas tend to do harm to the rights, persons, and property of average people, albeit each Party tends to favor some demographics over others.
