Great overview.

So, knowing the dysfunction and the goal of the “Left” to control The People by-and-through ever increasing Government, where’s the practical path back to Freedom?

"....where’s the practical path back to Freedom?"

Glad you asked, RGK. I used to be very black-pilled. But now I am becoming more optimistic every day. The government the leftist built could be dismantled. Why not? They are good at taking control but not good at running systems. They are making mistakes.

2025 could be the year that they push the U.S. over a totalitarian tipping point, or the year that we start to turn things around. Obviously, that requires more than I can say in a comment, or in a substack, or can say at all. I don't have a big plan. There is no such big plan. We need to cooperate to grow a resistance.

We don't need to build a tree, we need to plant the seeds of a forest. A forest that will grow into a force that defeats the leftists, strips them of their control of our institutions, and dismantles their U.S. Over-government. It could happen.

Most of what the left has done they have been able to do because they control the mass media. The first step in defeating them could be to do what you and I and other Substackers and rightist writers are doing: Grow our own mass media to route around theirs and present our narrative: The truth. To do that, we need to better understand how their mass media system works, how they grew in, control it, and use it to win.

Yeah! I like that formula. [Pardon the interruption.] And how that subsequent question kinda spark'd a brilliant conversation that created your profound response.

I guess some of those programs just waste billions of taxpayers money to solve problems caused by other similar governmental programs

Michael... great rant!!! "A de facto kleptocracy" is 100% right on for 99% of Democrats and Republicans alike! Just shared as a Note...

If government gets big enough will we be a part of it...?

If you count being the subjects of the kleptocratic oligarchy as parts, then I guess so.

We can do whatever we want, if we are determined and focused and stay the course.

Great post.

1st of all, or firstly, thanks for tagging me earlier. Quite the impressive place y'all have here.

Regarding this rather epic essay I'd have to say that I couldn't agree more with every order I've found extensively accurate in comparison with the factual data and horribly obvious state of events.

Frankly it all wouldn't be further possible to fund the machine, by simply opting out of and litigation there to, for gross negligence, to begin a case for further prosecution. The State representatives and Senate are generally obligated to facilitate, not subjugate, the majority Republic.

The interesting part about things realized in the essay is that the perpetrators of the issues are the ones representing the Republic (us) as the problem to justify their existence. And throughout the process of "taking over" a lot of clever folks and possibly nefarious groups exacerbated rather than maintaining.

The problem is, that by allowing to proliferate, becomes more difficult to contain, especially the crisis cases requiring national security fabrications that further ambiguity.

Further extenuating this reality to rather join than change whatever is the paths to least resistance.That's by design apparently.

It's bribery, blackmail, and money laundering on every social construct of society. And nobody isn't expendable under the law unless amendments are sufficiently ratified to accommodate higher standards of living en mass but not a few that suffered at the beginning of time, throughout human history, every time this ancient proliferation began.

I will be glad to elaborate further, but forgive my far to lengthy introduction.

Thanks for the comment (and for the Note you made linking to the "Lefties Losing It" YouTube channel -- great stuff!)

Yes, "It's bribery, blackmail, and money laundering on every social construct of society." A perfect summation of the system we now have, a de factor kleptocratic oligarchy.

It might be helpful if we could all stop killing each other, and ourselves, and start making more babies. Oh, to be young again...
