Long-time readers will be familiar with an article written for the esteemed political journal XYZ called What Can You Do Today, where a lay of the land was established for supporting a parallel economy that can allow dissidents and thought criminals to continue on living even while escaping the yoke of globalism. In that article were three lists, one of things we have, another of things we should have, and the last of dubiously legal things that could hypothetically help one become a 21st century Ned Kelly.
While it is heartening to see the progress that’s been made in the time since, the dark lord has also been hard at work. The control system that many have been mocked for exposing is starting to crystallise. Great strides have been made in cryptocurrencies such as XMR, but at the same time the great promise of anonymous digital currency is under siege as the curmudgeonly globalist oligarchs try to twist it in their favour. I quote from a Goldman Sachs report via FT:
To avoid facilitating illicit activity, central banks have mostly decided against fully anonymous accounts or capped anonymous transactions, and have tasked commercial bank intermediaries with monitoring customers and transactions.
The article further outlines some details on CBDCs, Central Bank Digital Currencies. When I was a kid the Revelations-reading adults would often talk in hushed tones about the One World Currency and of people being unable to buy and sell unless the antichrist allowed it. As a kid it all felt like science fiction, albeit with the foreboding of a soothsayer’s doom, and as an adult I see it gestating right before all our eyes.
Avoiding illicit activity, indeed. That the Financial Times does not see this as controversial should probably give you an indication of what “illicit activity” could mean - that is, anything disapproved of by the system, and thus subject to daily revision. One day you could be buying cabbages from Greg, and the next day you find he’s been blackblocklisted from the digital payment system for liking the wrong thing on social media 15 years ago, and his hard-earned SchwabCoins have been redistributed to queer bipoc folx. As we speak, Lord Klaus is sending three transgender-operated drone battalions and Boston Dynamics Killer DogBots to your house to ensure your compliance. Look at this rejected Mortal Kombat character. Is this the best they’ve got?
Either way, they’re all in. Make no mistake about it - they aren’t backing out of this fight. They truly believe what they are pushing. If you truly believed in man-made climate change, technological singularity, endless progress, Kalergi plan, and all the rest of it, would you act any differently? They believe it. They’re acting out their beliefs consistently.
Enough Doom and Gloom
Where is this leading? What is the medium-term scenario? As a rough estimate, I’ll call short-term 1-10 years, medium-term 50-500 years, and long term anything greater than that. Medium-term is arguably the hardest situation to plot, since short term scenarios have cause and effect we can directly trace, and long term scenarios have general principles they follow which we can learn from history. Medium term scenarios are rife with weeds, as we are having to extrapolate the uncertainties of today into a massive tree of possibilities.
We still have possibilities, but in the short-term we can sort of see where the trends of today are leading. There are of course things we have no control over, but our actions will echo through the lives of our children and their children. Suppose you take the actions you think best for yourself and for them - maybe that’s getting wealthy, maybe that’s homesteading, maybe something else - but in any case, it puts them in a better position. What then should their goals be? We need a longer term roadmap. Those who choose to pursue wealth should do so with the aim that they set their family up to be a kind of local nobility, not just living in comfort. This means using your wealth to help local people who you trust into positions of power. What separates the Rockefellers or Rothschilds from noble families of old Europe? What separates Bill Gates from any of them? Hereditary power is real and is not going away - it doesn’t matter if it’s 10 years old or 1000. It is not wrong in itself, only the wielder makes it so.
Homesteading may seem a more sensible road for many, and can provide a comfortable, firmly rooted life. History becomes very small in this scenario. The children of this life may need to accept knowing more about the hills and rivers than they do about even the country’s place in the world. This is the ultra-localist scenario, and it is the most natural to humanity. Followers of this road must beware that the globalist system could linger, limping on, for some time, with the ability to lash out at those it deems a threat. They are already antagonising and disenfranchising rural people all over the world. Every year, new laws are enacted to make that life harder. It is a good life, but be warned that you will still need to be under the radar as much as possible. In the medium-term, it is these people who will grow up learning about the better, brighter Olden Days, and will see the cities and urban areas as foreign lands, our former territories, full of strange people and strange ways - if the cities even survive this century, of course.
These approaches are well-known and commendable. Those are the good endings. Yet there are other ways, less commendable, certainly less moral, and that good Christian men should want to avoid. I cannot in good conscience advise you to take these paths, although I have toyed with the idea myself. These are the ways of the Black Ocean Society, an ultranationalist organised crime gang and secret society. The ways of Black Sam Bellamy may be a little more palatable, or perhaps Robin Hood - don’t forget that an important part of Hood’s rebellion was inspired by his love of the rightful king and his wish for a good monarch to return to England to clear away corruption. Either way, the darker path is achievable by a small, underground movement of close friends and allies, who are bound together by some esoteric knowledge and have higher purposes. Like it or not, the dissident, conservative, and traditional movements fit all these prerequisites. Starting a secret society is difficult, and it begins with small groups of close friends working together to achieve small goals.
Being a pirate, highwayman, or gangster may not have been on your bingo list, but this system hates us. It is not the system of Caesar which merely administrated the world, which can be largely ignored but for its taxes and censuses; it is the system of the Pharisees who hated Jesus and sought the death of Him and His closest followers, and which they in turn resisted and fought against. I will leave you with a thought I ponder often, is it Godly to accept the will of the devil whilst hoping that by inaction you will be spared? Maybe it’s time to dive into the muck for ourselves.
