How to Make a Good Team in Sports and Politics: The point of everything is to give voters options

It will continue to be one of the universe’s great mysteries why people can look at sports teams and have opinions about what they should be doing, but they can’t apply those same methods to their lives.  This is a prominent issue every year in pre-season football with the mini camps as teams figure out which players they will cut and which will make their final roster.  Good teams figure out the right players and get them all pointed in the right direction for the success or failure of a season.  If the players are allowed to pick their fellow players, teams tend not to do so well.  It takes good leadership to figure it out and put people together who likely wouldn’t figure it out for themselves.  Good teams tend to have players playing together who wouldn’t otherwise be friends.  One of the mysterious qualities of leadership is to see things of value beyond the choice of friendships, and when it comes to sports, most people get it.  They understand what makes success and have many opinions about it.  But they can’t do it when it comes time to utilize those same skills in their lives.  That is certainly the situation in business.  And it is undoubtedly the case in politics.  The goal of all these endeavors is to figure out what success looks like, whether it be winning a Super Bowl, having a great business quarter, or providing a great political party to the voting public; once success is understood, then leadership needs to do what it must to give that result.  It’s not complicated.  Yet, it remains one of the least utilized factors in human interaction. 

There is only one correct measure to winning in politics; it is in a political party providing the voting public with good people they can vote for.  Any other action is missing the point.  If a political party is not focused on those attributes, then they aren’t trying to be a good political party.  I would say this is a problem all over America, in every aspect of county politics, no matter where we talk about it.  And that is certainly the case with the Butler County Republican Party in Ohio, where I live.  I can say that I know many people at that party, and I personally liked them all in some way or another.  If you sit down and talk to people, I can usually find something I like about just about anybody.  But the problem is, do they make an excellent political party just because you want them?  And in most cases, that is not the reality.  Politics should only aim to provide voters and taxpayers with good people to represent them best.  When political parties lose sight of that strategy, things go wrong.  And that is how RINOs in the Republican Party come to be.  Most people get into politics for ideological reasons.  However, the concessions they make to get along with other people become detrimental to their representation of the voter base, which is the value of the party brand.  If people have good representation in politics, then the brand of the party could be said to be good.  If voters don’t, they start to lose faith in the system, voter engagement lowers, and the direction of victory in politics changes dramatically.  When voters feel that the people they elect don’t represent them, we could say that politics has failed.

It’s just like the comparison with the sports team that desires to put a winning team on the field so people come to the games and feel good about the chances for a victory, so they buy beer and overpriced hot dogs at the concessions, which is really how the team makes their money, how they measure their value to the customer base.  If the team isn’t winning, there are fewer fans to buy hot dogs, to put it simply.  The same holds in politics.  I know many people who want to run for office within the Butler County Republican Party.  But, they do not feel they can remain people of integrity because of the restrictions of party politics.  So, we end up with the wrong people running for office while much better candidates that the public would love to have representing them are sitting on the sidelines.  This is a case where the players on the field pick people they like and are comfortable with, not the leadership of the voting public deciding how that team would shape out.  Too often, and this year of 2023 is undoubtedly a good example, many good people are not participating in the political process because they have learned that they aren’t in the cool kids club and will never be invited.  Because the party is picking the members, not the voters.  And instead of letting the voters shape the party, the players are forming the team; then they wonder why many fans are not supporting their losing effort.

Not everyone gets into politics for the same reasons.  I understand that some feel that getting into politics protects their business interests from a corrosive government and provides a barrier to their efforts to keep their businesses healthy.  These are not ideological people but practical ones who see government as dangerous to their interests in business, so they get involved in politics to protect their efforts.  And those people are trying to play nice in the sandbox with ideologically based people who enter politics for reasons of genuine philosophy.  And those kinds of people are scary to those looking for political stability.  I get it.  Just like a wide receiver on a football team being upset that a new tight end is playing the slot receiver role, the wide receiver might feel like the coaching staff is trampling on their turf.  But so what? Maybe that is the best way to become a winning team.  That doesn’t mean that the tight end should be run off the team to make the wide receiver feel like they have job security and aren’t threatened by challengers.  Challenges make the team better.  But then better for whom?  For the players or the fans?  That is what must be decided, and what I have seen from the GOP in general, especially since Trump has been out of office, is a party for the players, not for the voters.  It’s the players making the teams they want to play with.  They are not trying to give the voting public the best representatives they can get.  And if a political party isn’t doing that, they aren’t trying to be the best they can be for their communities.  While such a concept may not be complicated, it remains the biggest stumbling block to any successful venture within human endeavor.   And that is certainly the case in politics.  Some great people want to participate, but they have been told in so many words or less that politics is about maintaining friendships and that everyone needs to stay in their lane and behave.  But that is not what voters want, and until political parties listen, the public will continue to be let down by the result.

The West Chester Tea Party Does Not Endorse Lynda O’Conner for the Lakota School Board: And neither do I

For clarity, the West Chester Tea Party has not, and will not endorse Lynda O’Conner for the Lakota School Board.  There has been some rattling around from several people that they would, but they have told me personally that those rumors were untrue and they do not support her.  And neither do I.  We all have long friendships with Lynda and other candidates who these days call themselves Republicans but have drifted way to the political left.  But friendships or past relationships don’t make a good candidate.  Whether or not they represent our values to earn a vote is the issue at hand.  Too often, endorsements are given out because of friendships, not actual performance.  Lynda O’Conner has been the school board president for a while now, and she has attended Tea Party meetings in West Chester for over a decade and has formed relationships with many of us over the years.  However, based on her performance and what she did to Darbi Boddy as she begged us all to give her a conservative school board, the moment she had it, she essentially turned into the progressive governor that Ohio had, John Kasich, and betrayed us openly, even recklessly.  I tend to move on when I experience people like that.  I’ll give them a chance once, and once they show who they are, I don’t get too kinked up about it.  It’s always worth a try to give someone a chance.  Then, once they show who they are, you make decisions and move on.  Knowing she has betrayed many people in the Liberty movement within the Lakota school district and is running again, she is seeking endorsements for the upcoming election.  I had some reason to believe the rumors that the West Chester Tea Party might endorse Lynda, but quickly, they set the record straight and wanted to make sure they screamed from the mountaintops that they would not support Lynda O’Connor for the Lakota School Board and based on what they have learned about her, they never would. 

I wouldn’t usually talk about something that happened that was confidential, but looking back on it as I have, those privileges are meant within the context of friendly trust.  Yet after what happened with the previous Lakota school superintendent and the behavior against free speech that Lynda led against the incoming school board member Darbi Boddy, it’s clear what was going on, and I’m still insulted that she thought so little of me to try it.  I mean, she should have known better.  I spent hours and hours with Lynda O’Conner on the phone, meeting her in person, trying to help her.  But from her side, all she was doing was consensus-building in the classic sense against someone she had targeted as a political rival in the community.  And that didn’t become clear until the days after a specific meeting in the basement of some of our mutual Tea Party friends in May of 2022.  I should know what she was up to because I have covered these modern versions of The Delphi Technique for years.  It’s one of the most corrosive tools used in all public schools.  After a contentious school board meeting where I spoke in favor of Darbi Boddy, it was clear Lynda was trying to run her off the school board over minor issues.  Lynda had recruited Darbi to give her a majority on the board, along with Isaac Adi, and I did what I could to smooth out the edges and give credibility from the freedom movement side of things.  If I were on board with the effort, it would help the conservative base. 

I didn’t see a need to be overly cautious with this relationship with Lynda.  She had just spent the previous decade trying to win my trust, so I figured getting a functional, conservative school board in charge of Lakota schools was worth a shot.  Even that day I met with her and several other people, it became pretty clear what she was doing; I still wanted to give the effort a chance at working.  But she was looking for compliance out of Darbi Boddy to some liberal view of authority that was shocking to many of us, especially the West Chester Tea Party.  We all found ourselves in the basement of one of the leading members, with Isaac Adi and some school board mentor of his from Monroe schools pushing a sheet of paper in front of me, asking me what I wanted out of Lakota schools, which made me angry because of the amateur effort.  It was an apparent consensus-building exercise, much like the Lakota community conversations had been trying to win over opposition to school policy for a while.  And Lynda sat across from me with a smile, thinking all this was acceptable.  She had surrounded me with people I had trusted, especially in the Tea Party, and she felt that the peer pressure might win me over and away from the continued support of Darbi Boddy.  After all the years and everything I had written over all the time we had known each other, she thought I was that stupid. 

The meeting didn’t go well.  My wife and I left that day, never to speak to any of them personally again, because, within a few months, we had all the drama over the school superintendent.  Everything got worse after much further erosion in the community led by Lynda’s tampering with everyone’s political sentiments and wanting to pull everyone to the left, and lawsuits became a significant issue.  I had to explain to the attorney for the superintendent that if he had just apologized to Darbi Boddy for his role in trying to do what Lynda wanted, which was to remove her from the school board after many of us had spent the previous year trying to get her elected, then a lot of the trouble he found himself in wouldn’t have been such an issue.  But now that people knew and learned how much Lynda knew about it all along, those were self-inflicted problems that ultimately cost a lot of money in the district.  Through it all, I hadn’t talked to any of them in that basement meeting, so when I heard that the West Chester Tea Party was thinking of endorsing Lynda, it wouldn’t have surprised me after all the other people who had fallen off the wagon over the last year.  But if there is anything good that did happen, as a result, they did let me know that they felt the same way about Lynda as I did and that they would not support her or any of the other candidates who have gone over to the dark side of politics.  That’s certainly the case with Ann Becker, who is running for another term as trustee in West Chester.  She used to be president of the Tea Party for both West Chester and Cincinnati, but she has moved well away from those good old days now, more toward the political left.  Watching that kind of thing is painful, but it always happens.  And when it does, you always must wonder what people believe.  But happily, it is good to see that the West Chester Tea Party has not waivered, as others have, and they will not be endorsing Lynda O’Conner for the Lakota School Board.  And neither will I.

History Will Remember How ‘Truth Social’ Saved Free Speech: The Home of President Trump

There was quite a stir when President Trump posted for the first time on X, or whatever Twitter is called these days. Trump put his mug shot on there, and the numbers exploded upon seeing it. I thought it was a great move, but I don’t think it says anything about Trump returning to Twitter as much as it indicates what he will do to win back the White House. Essentially, Trump is all in; he will do anything, and I mean anything, to beat these Marxist losers and kick out the crooked Biden crime family from the White House. I did not see it as abandoning his personal social media site, Truth Social. Later, President Trump assured everyone that Truth Social was his home and that he would stay with it. That doesn’t mean he can’t post what he wants on other social media outlets. Only that Truth Social remained true to his heart, and it should. I think when the smoke clears from this period of history, there will be one common thing that everyone will point to and say, “That saved America.” And I think that thing will be the creation of Truth Social. It was a very dark day; I remember it well. It was the closest thing we have ever seen to a hostile regime change in America, involving thousands of people hostile to Trump and his supporters. After January 20th, 2021, Trump left the White House for the last time, and essentially, he was openly banned from all social media, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Google search engines; the writing was on the wall. We didn’t just have an election that was in dispute; we had a government assassination much the way we did with Kennedy and Nixon. And it happened right before our faces in a way nobody expected. Well, very few people did expect it. I expected it. But the results were shocking to a lot of people.

I don’t talk about a lot of the behind-the-scenes stuff.  I put out my social media, and lots of people see it.  But there is a lot of shadow banning going on, and with me, that has been the case since social media started.  In many ways, I may be one of the most shadow-banned people on planet Earth.  I noticed it on YouTube years ago, well before President Trump joined politics.  You can look at videos I did 15 years ago and see that some have less than 100 views.  Some people put videos of hamsters drinking water, which get millions of hits, so for videos that old, what in the world was going on?  Well, it’s the same on my Twitter account and even my blog.  There are many ways that the people who control those social media platforms, apparently low-level people, can suppress the algorithm to your material for search engines, which many people know about.  But they can also tamper with social media counting, such as viewing results, followers, subscribers, and how your overall reach reaches.  To get a little sample of what I’m talking about, look at the views on my Rumble account videos compared to my YouTube account, and you will see what I’m talking about.  I see one set of numbers on my blog on my administrative page.  But on the display page, it’s a much-suppressed number.  Occasionally, when the software that the social media companies are updating and their algorithm scanning software is on pause, I get an accurate picture of how many people visit my sites.  That’s when I usually take a photo to validate the results.  But to put it mildly, the bad guys control the internet, let people see what they decide, and manage the transaction.  That is the purpose of the internet: more power, not more freedom.  And that game plan was never more evident than on January 20th, 2021, when the world of media, on all fronts, tried to make President Trump, the guy who just spent four years in the White House leading the free world, a “nonperson,” as Rupert Murdoch at Fox News clearly stated.  They were in control, and anybody they wanted to target they felt they could paint out of existence. 

The payback will be harsh, as it should be

In reaction to it, I was looking over my shoulder a lot.  There were a lot of shadowy characters popping into my life, and I was prepared to have a shootout with those hostile forces at any moment.  The crackdown was in full effect, and I was indeed a target.  My wife and I hooked up our RV and headed for the deserts of New Mexico to get things straight.  It was probably one of the best decisions in life that I have ever made.  There, I finished my book The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business and figured out what to do next.  And in the following months, the resistance movement against these tyrannical, election-stealing terrorists in the White House was taking shape.  Trump wouldn’t allow some third party to control his next campaign or the freedom movement in general.  As many others did, we would create our own social media companies and turn the tables on the bad guys.   And it would be painful for them.

I still watch and listen to everyone, even the bad guys on cable news, like MSNBC and corporate-run talk radio, just to understand what those idiots think. Most of my information comes from the live streams on Gettr. And once President Trump started Truth Social, I was among the first accepted accounts. And there is quite a lot to that story, too. I have had a lot of trouble with Truth Social, but it is not their fault. But there has been a lot of tampering that has locked my account many times. But, the social media element has undoubtedly forced the entire industry to change. Under Elon Musk, I have given Twitter a bit of a chance. It’s better. My account shows few social media impressions because it is so heavily shadow-banned. But I routinely get many tens of thousands of views when I comment on an account that isn’t so heavily shadow-banned, which is very effective. Social media, like their communist partners in China and the World Economic Forum, will let a few controlled people present the appearance of free speech. But the hostile anti-free speech people try to suppress them in every way possible. Truth Social was the first to break that wall down brick by brick, and it was brilliant of President Trump to utilize. Ultimately, it will likely be what won the war because it took the clamps off free speech and forced the alternatives to adjust their approach. And it broke the model of tyranny behind the creation of the Internet. As a result, the message of Trump and the rest of us can get out to others, and the government and the hostile agents that control our government now cannot stop people from hearing other opinions. And the planned communism that was always part of the Internet plan is falling apart. Truth Social opened the door to Free Speech on the Internet because it was the home of the most famous person on earth. And that pressure may save the world yet.

A Conversation with My Mom: Understanding the Cult of Trump

It was an easy answer that had been coming up more frequently, especially with the Trump indictments by a corrupt legal system run by a crime boss in Joe Biden, who was only in power because of a stolen election. And the thugs were showing that they were in charge, but they were mystified as to why so many people still supported Trump. They had not thought that to be the case. Instead, they expected submission, groveling, and fear from the Trump supporters. Even as they distributed a mugshot of a former president to show their power over him and much of his former staff. We saw a coup by Marxist insurgents, just like Lenin, Mao, or Castro in Cuba. This happened in the United States, and they thought they had it all figured out. Yet, instead, they didn’t understand why Trump was getting more popular, and nobody seemed able to explain it, even the Trump supporters. But the issue became very clear as I visited my elderly mom in the hospital. We were having one of those life-flashing-before-her-eyes discussions as if checking the validity of everything’s worth. From issues when she was a little girl that were coming back to her very fluidly. To things that happened just yesterday. And in her condition, she had been telling all the nurses who were tending to her about some of my very violent past because it was on her mind, and we were talking about it in a way we never had before. Life moved quickly, and there hadn’t been time to catch up, at least for me. She felt she had done something wrong, producing a person like me who was so angry that many people outright hated. She came from the Happy Days generation, where people measured success by how many people liked them. Not me. She didn’t understand why I needed to carry a gun everywhere. She said to me, “Maybe if you just did what you were told, so many people wouldn’t be after you,” she said.

Vote for Trump to fight Marxism

We reflected on many stories, but the one she had told the nurses was one where I was involved in a large fight where many people were killed in the process.  As we reflected, only a few were still alive out of all the people involved.  She was upset that I was so proud of that incident.  She felt guilt about it while I took great pride in it, and that was the core of the problem and why we hadn’t talked about it over all these years.  But that wasn’t the only issue.  I reminded her of the first grade when I poked the school bully in the eye with my scissors.  He was picking on somebody. I had stepped in to stop it, and a fight ensued in class.  He was a really big kid, and everyone was terrified of him.  So, knowing he was dangerous, I fought him that way and stabbed him in the eye with my scissors.  I got into a lot of trouble.  Another time, I was on the school bus.  I always rode in the back, as far away from the figures of authority as possible.  But that was always where the kids who did terrible things sat, and I witnessed many bad things.  One day, they were doing drugs, sharing apparent stimulant pills, and they tried to force me to take one.  I threw it out the window, as I have never taken any drugs, ever in my life.  And I felt very strongly about it even back then.  A huge fight ensued, many of them against me, and many people got hurt, some of them badly.  I got into a lot of trouble.  A lot of trouble.

I don’t sit around thinking about it, but I had dozens and dozens of those kinds of stories, and as my mom reflected on them like older adults do as they are trying to work things out about their own lives, I just let her talk.  But up to that point, I am not a sit-down-and-talk-about-it person.  I keep the throttle down pretty hard, and I like things to go fast.  Not that I’m trying to outrun my past.  I don’t like getting stuck thinking about it because I see it as a waste of time.  But visiting her in that condition it was on her mind, and she felt like she had done something wrong to have such a socially ostracized kid, and she was being hard on herself for all the death and mayhem that was in the wake of it all.  Then, telling her how proud I was of my life was too much.  Yet she had said something that explained the current situation with Trump and the Marxists, who were essentially trying to take over the American government, and why there was such a lack of understanding about the whole issue.  The theme of my life was pretty easy to sum up: resisting anybody who wanted to control my life in some way. I have had the unique circumstance of never being beaten into any submission.  But from my mom’s point of view, she felt that I would have had a much easier life if I had just done what people told me to do.  But I didn’t want an easy life.  I enjoyed the violence.  I enjoyed the heartbreak.  I liked the pain.  Because I wanted more than anything to be free, free as a person to think what I wanted when I wanted to.  So, to me, all those horrible things were good, and I was proud to now reflect on them, knowing what I had to do to arrive at this moment.  On the other hand, she valued safety as the primary criterion of goodness, and because of that, she felt like she had failed. 

Not all Americans had my experience.  Many, at some point in their lives, had taken that pill to keep from being beaten up.  Or they avoided stabbing a bully in the eye because they were afraid to hurt the other person, so they ended up getting beaten up themselves.  And they said yes to the pushing and shoving against them, where a long history of dead bodies didn’t populate their past.  It costs a lot to resist the bullies in life, and there are many of them, and most people do not feel as strongly as I do about it.  But their inner rebel does come out when it comes to Trump.  And secretly, they support that he has been so strong as their representative, and where the Marxist insurgents expected to bully people and have them fold up like cheap lawn chairs, people have continued to support Trump, and that support has increased with each new indictment.  As I answered my mom, appeasing the bad guys does not improve life.  I’d instead carry a gun like I do now everywhere, knowing that lots of people would love to kill me.  That was her fear: if you, just for once in your life, would appease all those bad people, maybe they’d leave you alone.  But no, they never leave you alone.  All they understand is force, and in my way, I have fought very hard with lots of casualties along the way to maintain my freedom.  And now, I was watching the nation of America waking up to that same sentiment.  And I think it’s good, and about time.  Better late than never, but I can certainly say that I understand it fully.  And what’s to come quite well.

The Arrest of Trump in Georgia: It’s all about saving Marxism from a second term of a very popular and successful president.

The critical thing to know, especially about this latest indictment where they are taking mug shots of the people they are prosecuting in Fulton County, Georgia, and passing them around showing power over the people, is that this is not an exercise in law and order. It’s purely a display of how Marxism has moved in and taken control of local prosecutors, and it’s an overt attempt to destroy the American Constitution in all the ways that communists have always wanted. America was never a racist nation, but now you can see clearly what the strategy has been all along, not just in one place. These communist prosecutors reveal the plan from the beginning: to infiltrate communities of color with Marxism and undermine our society behind a mask of racism. And that is certainly the case in Georgia with Fani Willis, who has obvious ties to Marxist groups. This is an assault on American justice, not a result of it. It’s the culmination of what Saul Alinsky wanted to perform after all that he learned from Al Capone’s mob for the Democrat party early in the last century—using communities of color to usher Marxism in ways that would never occur naturally. They are disguised as something else to force acceptance of such a hostile political mechanism. Nothing about these prosecutions has justice in mind or the preservation of the American way of life. The intention is 100% hostility, and now that there is a global communist push and all these types of people have been put in place by people like George Soros, they are making their move. They always intended to abuse their power, and now it’s on ostentatious display. What they are trying to do to people like Trump is no different than when Lenin took over the radicals in St. Petersburg and overthrew the Russians with a minority of the population into a communist state. They attempt to do the same thing, using people of color as their mask for their real intentions.

My man, Rudy, when these guys hate you, you are one of the good guys.

This didn’t just happen. And it’s not Trump’s fault. Trump has been the people’s pick to say no to this invasion, even if the attack has come in a form that most people don’t recognize as an attack. When we say “attack,” we think of tanks, troops, and airplanes. This is a military attack by hostile foreign invaders; only the effort is hidden behind the intentions of the World Economic Forum and their investors of billions of dollars into communities of color, which have been happening for decades. And it certainly goes back to the start of Barack Obama’s political career in the living room of a known American terrorist, Bill Ayers in Chicago, with his partner in crime, Bernadean Dorn from the Weather Underground. They were known terrorists who had been caught in the act, but they had Marxist sympathizers who propped them to the top of political circles, and they have been trying to undo America since their pot-smoking sixties as the insurgents that they were. Barack Obama’s entire presidency was meant to undo America, and he is still working in the background, just as those old Weather Underground terrorists are to this very day. It’s not an accident that all these prosecutions of Trump are coming from communities of color as if local prosecutors and their charges against a President of the United States will hold up in the Supreme Court. They don’t care because their entire effort is terrorism from Marxist radicals meant to disrupt the election of 2024, no matter what they must do. Even with more than 100 indictments against Trump, the conviction of any of them is not their goal. It’s all about trying to stop Trump and his supporters with their support of capitalism as an economic value.

It’s the same attack Bill Ayers and his wife used against America as kids. It’s the one that was behind the election of Barack Obama. Obama always had problems with his birth certificate and other background elements, which we were never supposed to look at because he hid his Marxist terrorism behind the mask of racism. They made his candidacy all about proving that America was not a racist nation, and they accused because it was always Republicans who freed the enslaved people who moved the country toward an open society. Who stood for justice for all. The Marxist radicals who had infiltrated all the college campuses sought to erode the nation’s foundations with phony attacks of racism, which they used as a military attack. And it has been going on so long that people can’t remember when that wasn’t the discussion. The tension is not normal; these Marxist groups have provoked it. Many people of color support President Trump; these groups have attacked them. So, it was never about race. It was about forcing Americans to accept Marxism into their communities and the eventual erosion of the Constitution, which was always their target. It was never about race relations but about exploiting them to attack the nature of American society in favor of Marxist insurgents.

When criminals seize power

And those elements of society who hide in the background, as Obama is still whispering in the ear of many radicals working in the FBI, CIA, and other Beltway partners who all want the same thing: more centralized control, more communism that gives more power to the government so they can do precisely what they have been doing to innocent people in Fulton County, Georgia. They fear a second Trump term because it would destroy all their Marxist efforts. During his previous time, Trump stated that America would never be a communist nation. There were lots of people in on the 2020 election steal and for a whole lot of reasons. But lingering in the background was this fear of communism being pushed out of America for good by a populist president. Of course, they went to their terrorism playbook and devised the phony COVID protocols meant to force Marxism onto people hidden as health advice. Or ballot harvesting behind made-up COVID rules to allow cheats to occur in Marxist-controlled big cities, such as Philadelphia, Detroit, Milwaukee, and Atlanta. These are not typical American cities; these are areas controlled by Marxist policies hidden behind the politics of skin color, just as Obama’s entire political efforts were. They were never interested in uniting as a nation. They meant to divide and destroy America. They don’t want the preservation of America in any way. They intend to overthrow it. And they have shown now for all to see what they have been up to. And they are way beyond the point of no return. These arrests of Trump supporters and Trump himself have nothing to do with justice. But everything to do with Marxist domination over our judicial culture, and they are using that acquired power to their full effect while they still can because, for their survival, they must stop Trump in any way possible. And all the areas they have controlled, through politics, the media, and the legal system, are being exposed now in their hatred of Trump. What was once hidden behind the mask of racism is now revealed for all to see. And for many, it is scary how much penetration into our culture that these Marxists have been able to utilize. But it was always the case. Only now, people can see it for themselves, and Trump is their only way to normalcy.

Love Trump, I’m with him completely

Covid Part 2 is Coming: Government is desperate to protect 2030 objectives and they don’t care who gets hurt in that process

You must understand what’s at stake here to grasp why Covid is coming back, these radical communists and socialists throughout the world have set gigantic social targets for the year 2030, and the re-election of Trump in 2024 will destroy those plans.  So, they will do everything to stop him, including returning to the playbook that worked before, releasing another version of Covid from one of the many bioweapon labs around the world, as they did in 2020.  But this one will be deadlier because the criticism from the first time was that Covid wasn’t deadly enough.  So, this one will kill more people, and they will do it because they got away with it before, four years ago.  That’s right, Covid, as I have said repeatably since that time, was a manufactured crisis, which the government seems to be doing a lot these days.  It was a “plandemic” not some act of nature.  These are bioweapons by a hostile regime of global communists who will do anything to get power and stay in control.  Anything.  And they’ve thrown everything at President Trump to stop him from running for President Again, and he keeps getting more popular, and they are in a bit of a panic now.  Joe Biden is just their representative in the White House.  He will do whatever they say, but Joe Biden is not in charge.  The script has already been written and leaked from several government sources.  Covid is coming back because they have no other choice, and it’s coming in September of 2023.  And by December of 2023, ahead of the election year, just as it was done in 2020, there will be new lockdowns and isolation rules much worse than before because it’s their only chess move, and you can bet they will make it, no matter who dies in the process.  These people should have been punished after what they did in 2020, but they weren’t.  And now that they got away with it, they are coming back.

Alex Jones has a reputation as a conspiracy theorist, but he’s often very right when he says something; it comes true eventually. I explain Alex Jones and myself, for that matter, with Robert Persig’s concept of the “Metaphysics of Quality.” Some people in life, the best leaders for that part, are those making decisions in the front of the train. But most people like to make decisions in the back of the train, where it’s safe. To justify why they are too chicken to live at the front, they call those who aren’t afraid conspiracy theorists to explain their cowardness. It’s a psychological problem, not an indicator of truth. So even though people might not like the big-time wrestling type of delivery that Alex Jones does when reporting the news, that doesn’t make his content any less relevant. And he has been told by a TSA contact that he has, as well as others, that the timeline for the Covid protocols has already been floated down through the ranks as led by the Biden administration. At the same time, these reports hit the marketplace, it was reported that the Biden administration will gear up for a return to the vaccine policies in September. Consistent with the timeline released by the TSA agent. Like before, everything related to Covid, or whatever they call this one, has been preplanned and politically motivated. It has nothing to do with health or nature. It’s all about instilling global communism as it rolls out to the door of origin, the World Economic Forum. And Trump threatens their agenda, as do his supporters, who they know are a majority in America because they also know what they did to commit election fraud under the guise of Covid to steal that 2020 election. And they are willing to do it again.

For those involved with state legislatures who thought that Covid was never coming back, here it is, so they’ll have to start working to get in front of the story. Not to stop the virus. Like a nuclear bomb, it’s out once Covid is released as the bioweapon it is. People are going to be harmed, and they will die. There will be no social distancing to stop it. There will be no masking that will prevent the spread. The only thing that the masks will do is show submission to those who control the virus outbreak. And this will always be a danger until those people are punished. Until then, we’ll have to live our lives and prevent panicky governors like Mike DeWine in Ohio from trying to shut down our states again with ridiculous rules of voodoo science. The goal is to disrupt the election of 2024 just as they did in 2020 by keeping people home and using mail-in ballots because people would be unable to vote in person. These bad guys know there is no way they can keep Joe Biden in power unless they change how people vote. Too many people now understand how the election of 2020 was stolen, and that information is much talked about as more and more evidence is stacking up. Joe Biden and his family are in trouble with corruption. The economy is horrendously bad. There isn’t anything that the Biden team can claim a victory on going into a critical election year in which they have tried to stop their political rival, Trump, in every way but physical assassination by all the powers of government, and Trump is still poised to win most of the states if Democrats don’t get control of the election counting process. So, they are going all in on Covid as their 2024 strategy.

There are no plans to put Biden on the campaign trail.  He’s going to hide in his basement like they did before.  The media will do most of his heavy lifting, and they need an excuse why their old man can’t stay awake for more than a few hours a day, so Covid is their only option.  We never had free and fair elections, at least not in a modern sense, and now that people are waking up to that situation, the only way to control elections is behind a massive crisis, a manufactured bioweapon made in a lab with government money to keep the government in power.  And the World Health Organization is already printing the press releases using Covid Part 2 as that weapon.  So the most essential thing that can be done now is to take away centralized power from the health directors in the various states to keep the economy and people constitutionally free.  If there are court cases that need to happen to challenge state power, we need to be ready to launch them early instead of a year into it like last time, after so much destruction had already taken place.  The constitution is not suspended during a crisis; otherwise, the government will continue manufacturing a problem to perform illegal acts.  And going into 2024, that is the only way to approach it constitutionally.  People must be able to vote, and the vote counters must be monitored carefully.  And no amount of death and mayhem caused by these globalist powers, under World Health Organization communist crises management, can be allowed to alter that process because they fully intend to for their survival.  You have been warned, use it to your advantage.

Lakota Fed Too Many Birds: The latest scheme to get rid of Darbi Boddy

It’s interesting how people behave or think that their sneaky plans might resonate within their bubble of a network. And how social media can give the illusion of a reality, such as this fascinating perspective from Skippy on this GOP posting regarding the Lakota school board member Darbi Boddy. There is a compelling strategy going on that is worth talking about, and what is essentially happening within the GOP in Butler County, which has made the apparent turn away from Trump, is a desperate desire to turn the party back into the centralist party that it was back in the John Kasich days, and when John Boehner was Speaker of the House, a local guy that people thought represented conservative values. All this has worked in the background to determine if Lynda O’Conner, the current school board president, should be endorsed by the GOP as she has before. But in her behavior against Darbi Boddy, a truly MAGA Republican Party representative, many Democrat-minded types are employing a new strategy to attack Darbi with the illusion that she doesn’t have public support. And if Skippy and the gang aren’t in your corner, then you are on the wrong side of politics. Yet it’s the same old shell game, and this time, what is going on is that the Lynda types who have behaved as a monstrous liberals wearing the mask of the GOP is turning all their problems against Darbi Boddy, problems they caused entirely on their own as a warning never to support someone like Darbi again, otherwise bad things will happen. Just to set the record straight the West Chester Tea Party has not endorsed Lynda; they personally called me to ensure me despite the community buzz to the contrary. Lynda has been a disaster on the Lakota school board. But for now, let’s stay on this exciting and diabolical scheme.

This kind of thinking causes so many problems, and why politicians never do what they should be doing.

Currently, many ex-employees from Lakota schools are planning big lawsuits against the district because it has been a “hostile” workplace, and they have had to leave, from their liberal perspective.  And the blame for a lot of this hostility is directed at Darbi Boddy, who has questioned a lot of embedded liberalisms at the government school, and they don’t like that she exists.   So the emerging plan is to sue the district, blame the school board, and settle the cases so that the perpetrators get paid, and the school board can then blame Darbi to rally fiscal conservatives against her to say, “look how much money she has cost the district.”  And while all that is going on, the political moderates who want their party back, the same kind of people pushing for Ron DeSantis and other alternatives to Trump, want their Republican Party back.  So, suppose the district gets sued for millions and millions of dollars, and the lawyers in the background are licking their lips as if they were about to eat a great steak. In that case, the blame can be placed on Darbi for resisting the natural order of things, which is to lay at the feet of the radical leftist teacher’s union and their diabolical schemes of doom emerging from the Democrat Party.  And many of those who were faking conservative values to get elected or stay in the political cool kid’s club are hungry to snap back to some moderate middle ground with outright Marxism tilting the measurement scale. 

Lakota could win most of its lawsuits, past and present. But they are too lazy and have other ideas that end up costing taxpayers enormous amounts of money.

I was recently out at the Grand Tetons in Wyoming, and they have a lot of signs everywhere warning not to feed the bears.  Those warnings are similar to the signs in many parks and public places warning not to feed the birds because if you do, they’ll get used to the easy food and flock toward people whenever they see them, making a general mess of things.  And the bears out in the Tetons start getting very aggressive when they see people, and they will attack, hoping they’ll get access to easy food.  Well, that is what the school board at Lakota has essentially done, they have a habit of settling lawsuits too quickly when they should go to court and fight it out, and the word is out among all the radicals that Lakota is an easy-pay day, so they are planning legal action based on that observation and the lawyers are all too happy to facilitate.  This is part of a larger legal lawfare strategy that is going on around the country, which is most evident in the Trump indictments.  The soft-shelled Republicans see this trend as a way to get rid of a much more conservative representative on the school board and to warn the community not to vote for them anymore because they cost so much money in the community.  And, of course, liberals are always looking for an easy-to-exploit taxpayer scheme for social cases that advance their radical leftist agenda.  So suddenly, all these people are focused on getting Darbi the same way that the same maniacal characters are trying to get Trump.  You don’t see a lot of GOP leadership fighting to prosecute Democrats like Democrats are charging Trump.  That’s because they are all friends, just as they are in a local community like Lakota.  It’s all a scam, and the taxpayers are the undeserved political pawns. 

Of course, someone had to stand up to the baked-in progressive radicalism in the government school of Lakota, and Darbi has been that person, thankfully.  This strategy of going after school boards that do not lay down at the feet of raging Democrats within the teacher’s union will become a national trend.  We are only seeing it so early in Lakota because the GOP, in many respects, has joined the Democrats in their joint hatred of Darbi and the more significant MAGA movement that they hope dies before the 2024 election.  So with Lakota having a reputation for easy payouts, of course, all the disjointed types of ex-employees see an opportunity to sue the district, get a lot of money, and the board can publicly blame Darbi.  But the real cause of the problem was that the school board fed too many birds, and now they are flocking around dumping excrement on everything looking for easy money.  And that comes from incompetence; this school board seeks legal advice for everything, which costs money.  Yes, the lawyers have gotten very wealthy off the Lakota taxpayers.  It’s not because of Darbi.  It’s because the school board lacks the intellect to think for themselves, and they throw lawyers at all the radical behavior the teacher’s union throws at them.  And the only method they utilize to deal with political pressure from the Marxists is legal advice and legal settlements.  Anyway that doesn’t involve complete compliance to the radicals will result in hostile legal action, as we see at Lakota, not because of the merit of the cases but because they know the GOP has not stood behind Darbi the way they should have, and their endorsed candidate in Lynda O’Conner has led the way, their goal is to pay out the settlements, throw Darbi under the bus, then go to the taxpayers with a tax increase hoping the public never votes for someone like Darbi ever again.  But as usual, all these characters are not reading the political tea leaves correctly, which will make for an exciting future for everyone.  Essentially, they didn’t listen and fed the birds when they shouldn’t have, making a real mess of things in the process, and we have what we do now.

As Usual, People Trusted Government and They Lost Their Lives: The Marxism behind the Lahaina wildfire

I’m proud of the people regarding the terrible fire in Lahaina, Hawaii, on the island of Maui during the summer of 2023.  Early in learning why a raging fire broke out that destroyed the entire town and so far killed entire families, with over 500 people wiped away from their lives, credible people were sharing videos of some beam weapon that was igniting the fire, aggravating its spread.  So from moment one, many people were not falling for the narrative that a raging fire had just burst out and destroyed the entire town.  The sirens didn’t go off because the government official feared that people might be scared and run into the fire in the hills surrounding the city.  And the loser in charge of the water to fight the fire was afraid that he might upset the “water spirit” by using it for such a catastrophic event.  Virtually everything about the Lahaina fire that destroyed the entire town resulted from some government pinhead and stupidity, and people have learned from Covid not to trust the experts.  Because the experts are usually bought and paid for and serve other kinds of powers, such as the World Economic Forum.  Immediately people assumed that the fire had been started by some nefarious characters who wanted the town for some other purpose, which obviously would be revealed in who did what with the land in the aftermath.  Bill Gates had a house near that location that wasn’t touched by fire, and people noticed it.  People were asking the right questions in the devastating aftermath, where we are today.  We should expect to be lied to by an incompetent government.  And when there are major disasters like this one, we should look for who profits from the demise because there is probably something to it.

But at the very least, conspiracies about motivation are not needed here.  Asking hard questions is healthy, and the answers are likely harder to digest.  But we know that significant incompetence was on full display, which is the most dangerous aspect of the fire and the government meant to protect the town’s people.  We live in a time where the experiment of the Administrative State, as much as we might complain about it when they are slow to get us a check from our tax returns or answer our complaints about some service they are in charge of, has failed and failed to the point where they are just openly dangerous.  There isn’t much of a core competency we can trust about an administrative state government and its slow-minded, lazy employees.  This is a shame, but it’s a glaring reality in 2023.  It always was to a large degree, but this is different.  People seem finally ready to admit that they’ll never hear from the government, “I’m here to help.”  Instead, they’ll hear, “I’m on my lunch break, I’m working from home because of Covid,” or “I want more money to sit around and do less work.”  The liberal playbook of Marxist environmentalism is doing the same thing to power companies worldwide.  In my state of Ohio, I have talked explicitly about the FirstEnergy problem, where radical politics has attacked any politician who has tried to have a relationship with them.  The radicals want to get rid of nuclear energy and are trying to put that power company out of business and force them to say uncle with renewables, solar, and wind.  And that looks to be the same kind of case at this massive fire in Hawaii.

The experts, the same kind of experts who told us not to take Ivermectin to treat Covid, which turned out to be disastrously lousy advice, have indicated that the electric company in Hawaii may have had poor infrastructure and that a spark arch might have been the cause of the fire.  And as bad as that sounds, if it’s true, then the reason is even worse because it’s evident that the operational money that should have been going into improving their grid was instead going into the hole of renewable energy because the tentacles of liberal climate science are all over this catastrophe.  They caused problems, and once there was an emergency, they failed to warn people of the danger or give them the tools to fight the fire.  The evidence points to a new kind of warfare where the government can completely manipulate circumstances to fit the desires of their fundraising needs.  Suppose a wealthy donor wants instant oceanfront property for some nefarious reason. In that case, the government can burn down an entire town using the justification of green energy to displace everyone so that they can destroy the property, sell it to some investor for dirt cheap and blame it on some excuse created by the minds of a bureaucratic administrative state as the cover fire for lawsuits.  And nobody will ever figure it out, “they think,” because everyone is too busy trying to get a good ESG score to notice.  Rather than providing good power to the needs of the people, this power company in Lahaina, Hawaii, was more concerned with environmental compliance than the needs of the people they were supposed to serve, and the results have been devastating. 

In every layer of the failure, from the power company to the government agencies in charge of crisis management, we see that cultural Marxism, with various degrees of communism and socialism sprinkled throughout the Administrative State, can be traced to bad centralized policy that does not serve people.  It has made people victims of it, not benefactors.  And when people die due to the government’s actions, immediately the narrative from the media is to underreport the crises deliberately.  Who needs conspiracy theories when it’s so overtly apparent that the government, a collective body of lazy, liberal employees, is just dumb?  That the cause of the fire was dumbness, whether nefarious or accidental.  The wrong ideas persuading the bad economic objectives put the people of Lahaina, Hawaii, in danger and destroyed many lives.  We live in a time when we can’t even trust the water meter reader.  That government activism destroys an affordable kilowatt hour by power companies because they are more worried about appeasing Larry Fink at BlackRock and their environmental terrorism.  When you give dumb, lazy people as much power as this modern age of government official working for an incompetent administrative state has, their mistakes will be deadly, and the aftermath catastrophic.  Like everything that the government touches, disaster follows in its wake, whether it’s the teaching of kids in government schools, to the license bureau; listening to the authorities is an excellent way to get killed and lose everything you’ve spent a lifetime trying to build.  Governments and their Marxist sensibilities are destroyers and certainly do not have anybody’s best interests as their priority, which was never more evident than in the aftermath of the Lahaina, Hawaii fire.  Aside from any nefarious World Economic Forum intentions, the real problem was incompetence and having the wrong people in bad positions to make all the wrong decisions. Purposeful or not, the results were a disaster for innocent people who were guilty of trusting the government too much and have now paid for it with their lives.

Vote No on Recreational Marijuana in Ohio on November 7th: The world needs more shepherds, not more dope smoking sheep

There are few things I hate in the world as much as pot, so now that recreational marijuana will be on the ballot for the November 7th election, 2023, I will be an emphatic NO.  I’m against marijuana use in every way possible, especially recreationally.  I don’t care if you can make a rope out of it or clothes.  Marijuana is a horrendous drug.  I have about a third of my family members who either have used it or are using it.  Some for medical reasons because they have chronic pain, and my answer to them is all the same.  My relationship ends with them once they use it, which has been the case no matter who they were.  There are many things I can overlook, personal failures that I can sympathize with.  But the purposeful destruction of a mind is not one of them.  I have always been in the camp of capital punishment for drug dealers, even if small quantities might end up in the hands of kids.  But even further than that, I also feel that way about users.  Marijuana is a poison intended to decrease how a brain works and is detrimental to the human race.  I don’t care how natural it is. I’ve heard all the excuses about it making people “mellow.”  That the Indians used it and that its nature’s way of chilling out the world.  No thanks.  It didn’t help the Indians very much, and for what it did to them, bad people today want to do to the United States, which is the ultimate goal behind the mass destruction of America by its enemies.  The drug culture was a purposeful poison introduced to our country because nobody wanted to fight us on the battlefield after World War II.  So they plotted to ruin the minds of the youth, and the results are what we see today, several generations of people compromised by the drug.

I’ve never been a “libertarian,” a do-what-you-want-at-all-cost kind of guy.  I’ve always been a slave-destroying Republican promoting capitalist economies and an intellectual society smart enough to vote.  This live-and-let-live crap is for the birds.  If I smell marijuana, I get furious, even if it’s in my backyard.  I have gone to war, which is well chronicled in many courtrooms, police reports, and mayor’s offices over the last thirty years, and my thoughts on pot have never wavered.  I suppose my hatred of marijuana started in school as I watched kids in the back of the bus pass joints around.  It made them look stupid, and they were glad of it.  Then I saw a few Cheech and Chong movies which they seemed to want to copy, and I didn’t think they were funny in the slightest.  My earliest thoughts on pot are that it was a weapon given to American culture to poison it, and my observations have proven this to be the case over time.   I’m not unrealistic about marijuana; trying to find people who feel the same way I do about it is about as realistic as looking for a virgin in a whorehouse.  Just about everyone has at least tried it once or used it at a time in their lives.  Depending on what’s going on with people, they may come and go in their use of it.  The result is that most people don’t have strong opinions against it because they can’t afford to.  Well, I can.  I’ve never used it.  I have been in many bloody fights over it and was successful.  And I’m not changing my opinion about it now.  Once I find out that someone uses pot, they are dead to me, no matter who they are.

Marijuana is a poison meant to rob people of their intellect, and I would go as far as to say that it has no redeeming value.  Humans are supposed to be thinking creatures with dominion over nature.  Not a bunch of slack-jawed hippies stoned at a music festival.  Recreational marijuana use is an appalling concept.  If it doesn’t pass this time, it likely will in the future because many people out there are too weak to stand up to its temptations.  But there is nothing good about intoxication, not even with alcohol or prescription drugs.   And as I told a family member a few weeks ago, you don’t take marijuana under any circumstances; I don’t care how much pain you are in.  You fight through the pain and preserve your intellect.  I don’t care if marijuana is in a vaping condition or a little pill; you never take it.  It is a weapon of war against human civilization and was always meant to be that way.  I have lost many friends over my opinions about marijuana and am glad to have lost them.  I had some really close friends with whom I had gone through a lot when I was younger.  I went out to a movie, and when I returned to my apartment, I smelled pot in my bedroom, where I had a little parakeet bird.  While I was gone, they had tried to get the little bird stoned.  I moved out and never spoke to any of them ever again.  That is just one example.  Many similar situations go back to my essential hatred as a kid in watching how stupid people behaved when they used it and how it was a celebration of a lack of intellect.

I don’t care if Shakesphere smoked dope or Albert Einstein.  It doesn’t matter who it is; if they smoke dope and advocate for marijuana in any way, medicinally, recreationally, or historically, they are dead to me.  I have been let down by just about everyone in my life at some point over pot, and I’ve heard it often; maybe the problem is me.  Do you want to be the only one with such strong opinions?  Well, the answer is yes.  I would rather have nobody in my life and keep a strong intellect completely marijuana free than accept such a device to have a few worthless friends and family members.  Marijuana is the weapon of choice of people who want to control us, and they understand that using the drug lowers society’s IQ in general.  It slows down people and their thinking and makes them dumber.  And for me, that is the worst attribute any community could embrace.  So, I am a very emphatic no on recreational marijuana in Ohio.  I’m okay with that if I’m the only one who votes against it.  I will never accept pot in my culture and will work against it constantly.  Legalizing drugs, especially marijuana, is a race to the bottom by dumb people who want to hide their timidity in the collectivism of mass culture.  The more stoned people, the less guilty they feel for being diabolical losers.  That’s why they say, “Don’t judge.”  Well, I say, judge and judge often.  And don’t be a loser.  And the recreational use of marijuana is a choice to be dumb and to turn off your mind when the goal of existence is to think and create.  Marijuana is the opposite of those things, and once a state accepts it as a part of its culture, everything goes downhill. That is certainly the case for states that have already legalized it.  You can tell the moment you cross over their borders.  It would be terrible for Ohio, especially when companies have to deal with brain-dead employees who miss work too much and feel that they don’t have to pass a drug test to maintain employment.  Marijuana causes nothing but problems and should never be legalized in any way, shape, or form.  Anyone who advocates for marijuana consumption as a country, a state, or a personal right is attempting to destroy the consumer. The world needs more shepherds, not more sheep. And marijuana is for the sheep, those who would be herded to the slaughterhouse, which is just what the enemy wants.

Why I Have Not Been Cancel Cultured and Never Will Be: The Great flaw that the World Economic Forum never figured out

To answer a question that has been coming up a lot, especially these days, why I have yet to be cancel cultured out of existence is a good one.  Because it points to a fatal flaw in the World Economic Forum’s strategy for global domination, the foundations of that flaw were evident during and after Covid, and it is grotesquely apparent in the aftermath from all those who were suckered into believing what the Great Reset was aiming for their ridiculous “New Normal.”  Communism wasn’t going to be it, and they went all in on centralized control of everyone through the bureaucracy of the administrative state, and that fatal flaw was that they didn’t truly understand productivity.  They assume that everyone in the world is just as worthless as they are, as mindless bureaucrats who will do anything for a job because they don’t believe in the value of that job.  They feel they are given something, and their constant fear is that someone will figure out eventually that they don’t deserve that job, and that constant fear of that discovery drives them to do great evils in the world.  You’d be surprised how many CEOs of massive companies who make a lot of money feel that the rug could be pulled out from under them at any moment and that they might be homeless in the street with one swipe from their superiors in the World Economic Forum.  Those losers have gained so much power by exploiting this real fear in people who should know better.  This brings up the very relevant question, why don’t I worry about that kind of thing, and how have I managed not to be cancel cultured out of existence after all these years?  And the answer to that question is a good one that I’d like to see everyone understand because it is how you get true freedom in the world. 

Part of the reason that my answer might sound cliché is that the perpetrators of the fear want everyone to feel like such resistance is impossible, so they’ve stigmatized the obvious in the effort of mass social control.  But it’s all an illusion, mainly if you utilize the answer.  I don’t worry about cancel culture because the skills I have, precisely my best skill, is something that nobody gave me, so they can’t take it away.  Yet it’s something that the world wants desperately, and it always will.  Nobody at the World Economic Forum could ever stop people from enjoying what I can give them.  And that skill is that I make people around me better; I can continually improve their lives dramatically because I can read and utilize the fine art of subtly.  Most of the time, a problem, whatever it is, a psychological problem, a mechanical one, political, a narrative, a scientific one, have their answers concealed behind the subtlety of existence.  And if you can unlock that at will, you will find that you have a skill that people are always willing to pay for.  And they’ll pay for it in whatever currency they can give you.  This is one of the reasons that global forces want to control the money supply, so they can maintain how people get paid.  But there are many currencies out there, and you might say I am independently wealthy.  Not necessarily by physical money, but other currencies that matter much more, the kind of stuff that the IRS was never designed to measure.  And in that answer is the keys to freedom, which I have created in my life that nobody could ever take away, no matter how powerful they think they may be. 

That’s why I produce so much written content on this blog site for people for free.  I share my skill of reading subtlety because I can afford to.  Ultimately, I desire to make people better than they otherwise would be because I explain the real answers hidden behind subtlety for them.  I don’t personally get a lot out of the exchange, but I do like to see people live better lives, despite the forces that are trying to enslave them to the efforts of a liberal Administrative State and their communist intentions residing behind the entire endeavor.  For all the reasons that A.I. will never replace my particular writing style, because artificial intelligence will never be able to replace my ability to read subtlety in the world, there is no shortage of people behind the scenes who want what I have to offer, which is why I practically give it away for free.  I like to see people free, so I tell them how to be so.  But on all other matters, success in life, good relationships, an understanding of God and the afterlife, the mysteries of finance, history, psychology, legal practice, arts and entertainment, political philosophy, whatever the topic, there is always a hidden ingredient in subtlety that is just waiting to be discovered, which I see quickly, and can explain to people.  And for that reason, no matter the social conditions, there is always a long line at my door looking for my particular skill, which improves countless lives and always will.  I could have explained to the World Economic Forum the error of their ways three decades ago if they had listened, but they instead built their entire strategy on a false premise of production from day one, and they hoped to hide those flaws from themselves in subtlety, which they perpetually fear will be discovered, and exploited.  But of course, it’s too late for that. 

And that’s why I have never been cancel cultured and won’t be.  My life is not dependent on some loser to bring value to it or to decide that they’ll give me a job for which I should be eternally grateful.  I do many good things for many people that would otherwise be ruined by the mysteries of subtlety, where some of the worst people hide, hoping not to be exploited for the frauds they are.  But they fear most being discovered for the menace they present to the world, which makes it easy to conquer them, which I explain to countless people each week.  And to such an extent that I can afford to give away some of that good stuff for free to whoever wants to utilize it for their improvement.  I learned this skill of subtlety actually from an old samurai warrior in Japan many decades ago; it’s one of the nine ways of the samurai.  To understand the nature of all things as subtlety connects them.  And for access to that skill, my phone never stops ringing, and my email box is loaded with several hundred thousand messages on any given day.  And that will never go away.  There is no legal mechanism or a financial one that can stop it.  And I rather enjoy that leverage over the perpetrators of evil in the world and will continue to shower in the tears of my enemies because they fear subtlety and are haunted by it day and night.  And I’m not one to brag but to answer the question.  Why haven’t I been cancel cultured?  Well, I make people around me better.  The more people I’m around, the more improved they all will be.  And that is a skill that is most valued in the world by the needs of the human race.  Despite those who want to control those people for all kinds of malicious reasons but do not understand the subtle needs that people have, for which they will never have control.
