The ZMan walks the talk in that he supports some dissident friendly businesses on his website. In this week’s podcast he expounds on why this is going to be more important as the gulf between progressive America and non-progressive people becomes insurmountable..
The quote I liked was:
“For dissidents, the only way forward is to develop a counter-culture, which means politicizing our own lives fully. How you spend your money, where you spend your money and on whom you spend your money must be political. How you live, where you live and with whom you live is political. In order to build a counterculture, the dissident must become a fully political animal.”
“ Simply finding a way to remove yourself from their grip is the best thing a dissident can do.”
A.Rand’s Atlas Shrugged–>the men of the mind withdraw from participating in a corrupt society.
I fully agree with the statement but it’s safe to say that it is much easier said than done. But that is the assignment I now find myself confronted with.
