The Two Worlds

photog Current Events ,

I’ve started a series of posts on what seem to me to be the practical steps we need to take in the situation we find ourselves in.  But in order to make it worthwhile I need to put some thought and some research into it.  So, it’ll take a while to start and even more time to show much progress.

But I was just thinking of something that doesn’t take much deep thinking to say.  So, I’ll put it down on paper (or electrons or whatever this medium is).

We all live in two worlds now.  There is the day-to-day existence in prison world.  That’s the cage that’s been built for us by the Deep State, the DEI/LGBTQ/BLM worshipping corporations, the tech companies, the schools, colleges, professional societies and most of the churches.

Then there is the other world.  That’s the one made up of people who think like us.  That’s your friends and family that haven’t drunk the cool-aid and still believe in the old world.  That’s people you meet out in the world and on-line who don’t talk like an NPR broadcast with their careful use of pronouns and therapeutic tone of voice like they’re in a mental institution and don’t want to rile up the patients.

These two worlds are night and day.  In one world every conversation you have and every document you read raises your stress levels and sets your teeth on edge.  You’re always biting your tongue to keep yourself from saying what you really think.  Every minute in this world drains you of joy and energy.  You find yourself looking for excuses to wander away into the other world.

Then there’s the free world.  Now this world is much smaller.  And it’s fragmented.  Some of it only exists on-line.  It’s fragments here and there.  This or that website and the folks that you find there.  For me a large part of it is this place that I have manufactured out of bits and pieces of my personality.  Here are a number of people I’ve met and who share some of the same opinions I hold.

Then there’s some of my work friends, guys I used work with.  One group gets together every week for a zoom meeting and that’s a lot of fun.  We compare notes on things and give our opinions on the various outrages going on and talk about old friends and enemies and where they are.

And finally, there’s family.  People who know you better than anyone.  With them you couldn’t even make believe if you wanted to because they’d know it was fake.  Here are the people that matter most to you and you can say what you believe.

The free world is where you want to spend all your time.  But unfortunately, that’s not possible anymore.  So, we’ve all learned to compartmentalize our words and our actions to protect ourselves when we’re in prison world.  We don’t want to rile the guards or the other prisoners who don’t belong to our tribe.  That would put us in great danger and wouldn’t solve anything.

We’ll have to wait for my more practical advice to figure out a way to escape from prison for good.

The day the feds start gun confiscation is the day the 2nd US civil war begins.

I believe Biden and the left are purposely trying to destroy the USA on behalf of their owners, the Chinese, Russians and Soros.

Biden’s plan to stop gas sppliances such as cook stoves, furnaces, clothes dryers, and water heaters will only serve to further erode the power grid. California is already at the point of rolling brownouts. Imagine taking away all gas appliances and adding in mandatory electric cars to boot? Grid meltdown. Add on anything else such as a good-sized earthquake or solar flare and California will have massive blackouts and, as a result, lots of deaths. California is broke. And remember, the hospitals, etc, will be forbidden gas or fuel powered backup generators.

I have a natural gas standby generator, a gas water heater (looking at an on-demand unit to replace the tank type), gas range and a gas clothes dryer. That reduces my electrical load during outages and puts less stress on the generator, so I can basically run my whole home as if I still had line power. I can cook, wash and dry clothes and the rest on a smaller generator. All circuits are available, not just an essential few. Big Daddy Joe wants to take that from me. Good luck.

The problem for the Dims is they don’t know when to stop, anything.

Their first big win, in the 60’s, Civil Rights, was passed as “equal rights for everyone”. The nation was fine with that but it has evolved into permanent “affirmative action”, hard quotas, reverse racism and actual persecution of whites.

After several decades of gun “safety” laws, it has finally reached the point that we were promised would never be be reached: the current dominant political party proposing outright confiscation.

God knows where this “climate change” thing is going to end up.

I do believe that this current trans mania just beats anything that has ever happened before. The nation evolved to “don’t ask, don’t tell” in the 90’s (I think). Everyone was cool with that. Later, there was a bit of trepidation over gay marriage. Then it evolved further to the persecution of people refusing services to openly gay couples. But who could have anticipated the shrieking insanity it has become today, the 57 genders, gender change by the need statement of what you are today. Drag queens performing school sponsered sex shows for grammar school children. The government performing “sex change” butchery on per-pubescent children without the parents knowledge or consent. The domination of womens sports by men who self proclaimed themselves women, on this day anyway.

If this isn’t a present day recreation of Sodom and Gomorrah, I don’t know what else it could possibly be. A society this sick needs to heal itself or go down.
