1. Listen
2. Understand
3. Speak [if you can]
In that order. Otherwise, be silent.
Be a person, not an arrogant 'giant'.
We're all singing the final verse.
There is no middle ground.
Choose wisely,
the days are numbered.

Och det var nyttigt för dem att få fara omkring och se hur stora de
var, jordens länder och hav. Därhemma trodde de att Sverige var
hela världen, och därför blev människorna i landet så självgoda.

Det skulle de göra, istället för att syssla med nästans gärning som inte
angick dem, menade Jonas Petter: Om man därhemma råkade släppa en

i hela häradet. Men hans far nyttjade en gammal god morgonpsalm:
Lyd Guds bud och stilla vandra!
Sköt dig själv och skit i andra!

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one
people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with
another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate
and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle
them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they
should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self–evident, that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,
that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to
secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their
just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of
Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People
to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation
on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall
seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will
dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light
and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that
… Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils
are sufferable, then to right themselves by
abolishing the forms to which
they are accustomed.
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably
the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute
Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such
Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now
the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.
The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and
usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny
over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

Anger may in time change to gladness;
vexation may be succeeded by content.
But a kingdom that has once been destroyed
can never come again into being;
nor can the dead ever be brought back to life.
Hence, the enlightened ruler is heedful,
and the good general full of caution.
This is the way to keep a country
at peace and an army intact.

The evil always uses a statement of truth,
which is followed by a half–truth, a lie.
This sets up a manipulation to cause fear,
misinformation and misguidance.
It's always to our detriment,
so that we lose our freedom, love, money etc.
To control, or kill, that's their goal.
We can't be afraid.
So, if you don't have the gift of discernment,
ask for it – because you're going to need it.

The most terrifying force of death comes from
the hands of men who wanted to be left alone.
They try, so very hard, to mind their own business
and provide for themselves and those they love.
They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the
force and permanent change of life that will come from it.
They know that the moment they fight back,
their lives as they have lived them, are over.
The moment the men who wanted to be left alone
are forced to fight back, it is a form of suicide.
They are literally killing off who they used to be. Which is why, when
forced to take up violence, these men who wanted to be left alone, fight
with unholy vengeance against those who murdered their former lives.
They fight with raw hate, and a drive that cannot be fathomed
by those who are merely play–acting at politics and terror.
True terror will arrive at these people's door,
and they will cry, scream, and beg for mercy…
but it will fall upon the deaf ears of the
men who just wanted to be left alone.

But above all,
it is necessary for all of us to understand
that this all–out war against humanity
is not motivated only by the lust for wealth and power,
but mainly by a religious motive – a theological reason.
This reason is Satan's hatred: hatred of God,
hatred of God's Creation, and hatred of man,
who is created in the Image and Likeness of God.
…
Arise, children of Light:
Stand up and raise your voices,
for in the face of these crimes,

When we find a situation in which some men rule over
others, it arises from a human arrangement or convention,
as Jaffa notes in commenting on Jefferson's statement:
"The queen bee is marked out by nature for her function in the hive.
Human queens (or kings) are not so marked. Their rule is conventional,
not natural. As we have seen Jefferson say, human beings are not born
with saddles on their backs, and others booted and spurred to ride them.
These facts are accessible to everyone. They are truths that are self–evident."
So it is not just true, but self–evidently true that no
human being is born to rule over other human beings.

– A Deeply Felt Awareness —
True art at scale communes artist and audience in the
joyful suffering of bearing witness through imagemaking to
the eternal in life unveiled right here and now in our present.
In that sense, truth and art are in love, and that's why we love true art.
But in wartime, especially one like ours where fake news at scale is the
weapon of choice and necessity, both truth and art suffer from artificial
scarcity, and we suffer along with them in a manner denuded of joy.
