RE: Tron to Acquire Steemit, Inc.?
What I have experienced is that high level state actors are intent on themselves focusing on direct interventions at far higher levels than I represent. They offshore interventions at my level to subcontractors, from platforms like Goolag, Twatter, and Microshaft (which is why I don't use them), or 'associates' like snitches, drug dealers for corrupt cops, and criminal thugs. These plebs aren't availed the surveillance mechanisms, or even competent to be availed them, so pseudonymity well employed has prevented actual violence and oppression I have experienced in the past.
I have undertaken public action to report and oppose corruption, fraud, and other criminal acts by government in the past, and I have been threatened with violence including death threats as a result. When those threats were carried out, and involved my children, I undertook pseudonymity, which has ended such attacks, I believe for the above reasons.
This won't work in China, as there state actors do intervene directly in the lives of plebs, rather than subcontracting. I am not trying to be anonymous to the state actors that are intent on corruption and are availed the hardware surveillance potential to such powerful actors. I am succeeding in limiting my identifiability to them, and excluding subcontractors that are not availed that level of surveillance.
The FBI and CIA don't have time to track down and knife bloggers in the street, so they leave that to petty criminals, and they don't give criminals access to highly compartmentalized surveillance technology for reasons more important than my blogging.
I'm sorry to hear that someone attacked you and your family. It saddens me to hear that people are still being physically attacked simply because they say controversial things. After reading some of your blog, I can say that I disagree with many of the things that I've read, but I don't think that you saying those things qualifies as something that would justify my even verbally attack you about, let alone being reason to commit a violent act. We really need to shift society towards something that frowns upon physically harming people for saying things we don't like. I'm happy to say that I've left most of those tendencies in my childhood. I just wish more people did.
I completely agree with you that disagreement regarding issues is natural and necessary in order to enable those undertaking discussion to improve their understanding, and the participants to benefit from it.
Some people don't seek understanding or societal benefit. Some of them kill people to steal their drugs and sell them for money. When these act are committed by police, who employ snitches to take down their competition, and thugs to murder whistleblowers, they seek to destroy free speech and public discourse solely so that they can continue to profit from murder.
Those people, and their ilk, are the enemies of freedom, society, and every man, woman, and child everywhere, and I oppose them. If I do so in person, or identifiably, every threat imaginable are credibly used to prevent me from speaking out, and the lives of my children have been part of those threats, while attempts made to beat me to death in front of them have been undertaken.
From these experiences I have learned that no government power is safe in the hands of anyone, because it is provable that corruption is always covert and hidden, and depends on unjustly coercing free people to sacrifice their freedom of action and conscience to submit to overlords and thugs they deploy as minions. I have also learned to seek to reveal such crimes pseudonymously, so that my free speech does not become a death sentence to my children, whose safety I alone bear personal responsibility to ensure.
If you can think of a way to prevent criminals who have infiltrated institutions that claim to have authority over ordinary civilians from doing so, I would be happy to consider it with care. Nothing I have ever been told will do so will, and I currently am convinced that the elimination of institutional power is the sole means of ending violent abuse, and the corruption and parasitic extraction of wealth from free people most profitable to the most rapine psychopaths.
I see that decentralization of means of production in the myriad ways they have begun to eventuate do this, and as they further develop and disperse, centralized wealth and power is incrementally decreased as decentralization increases, and I call this a good start.
I would be happy to consider any opposing viewpoint that stems from reason, as whenever I am wrong, I want to change my mind so I can become right. The truth; facts, set us free, and lies and minunderstanding reality are chains of ignorance that trap us in psychological and mental captivity, prevent our full power to benefit ourselves and each other justly and voluntarily. I don't want to be wrong, even if I am strong or convincing enough to convince people I am right.
I want to be actually factually correct, regardless if I can enable anyone else ever to do so themsleves.
You may not seek to coerce people into silence, but you are not what everyone must be, and the litany of examples of abusive, tyrannical governmental power is inexhaustible, and I will oppose it though my only reward for doing so is death.
Thanks!
I hope you are right about that. You probably are right. I am just saying you never know as variables can change in the future.
Nobody Become Somebody Sometimes
Therefore, it is possible that if a nobody became Julian Assange, Edward Snowden, Seth Rich, etc, in being a whistle blower, in exposing corruption, in passing on information to other people, governments, etc, do go after those kinds of people.
Cable Box Mic
For example, in the 1990's, there was a man who opened up a cable box to find a microphone. That guy broke open that box live on television. After that, agents were sent to him. They began threatening him. They tried to kill him. They were trying to get him to stop. They were trying to scare him away. Now, if that man was perhaps too anonymous, then it may have been easier to Suicide Him. As of 2019, he is still alive.
Be Careful
I'm just thinking statistically about probabilities. For example, I don't know what happened to Epstein. But people probably murdered him. Well, he might be a bad example for the point that I'm trying to make.
Seth Rich Murdered?
So, take Seth Rich for example. He died. He was probably murdered. Perhaps, he should have been more public about whatever happened. Perhaps, he should have had body guards. So, what I am saying is that people don't always try to get murder. But sometimes, they end up doing something that upsets the political engineers, the powers that be. So, my point is that some people end up showing up on their radar. It can be gradual or it can be all of a sudden. Better safe than sorry is what I am trying to say. Maybe they will never go after you. But they may go after somebody you know. Therefore, we should always encourage people around us to be as wise as possible. Because you never know what might happen.
Dead Doctors, Scientists, etc.
Sometimes, doctors and scientists end up dead. It happens way too often. People need to be smarter. Because they could have been more effective alive.
Stick Together
So, patriots should try to stick together like they do in The Walking Dead. We live around zombies and Negan and all kinds of monsters. We live in a very dangerous world.
You are not wrong, but you should acknowldedge that you are not privy to all the facts regarding the cable box guy for example. His revelations may have been far more important, and he may have not revealed more in order to survive once he was identified. I myself have done this to protect my children who have been threatened.
As long as my revelations are largely ignored, or can be countered by disinformation and shill tactics, there is little point in undertaking the expense to dispatch very expensive high level actors to terminate my person to censor me. Mostly, people find my posts 'conspiracy theories' due to their different experiences. Most people dont know peoople that cops murdered for their supply of drugs that the cops then sold out of the police station. Most people have not seen boxes of food marked 'not for human consumption' served to captive slaves in American prisons, or meat purchased for events from outside suppliers stolen personally by prison kitchen administrators, and due to their lack of such experiences disbelieve my testimony, and this is absent any refutations by the guilty parties, which would increase opposition to my reports.
I am not expecting to convince anyone of these factual occurrences. I am not responsible for what other people believe, but am obligated to speak the truth by my own integrity. Do you doubt that such murderers and thieves using government service as a vector for fraud and criminal power would hesitate to do anything necessary to shut me up, including murdering my sons and me? I do not, because I have lived through such attempts already. Those threats and assassination attempts ended because I appeared to comply as far as they could ascertain and no longer personally spoke to media, individuals empowered to sanction those crimes, or even my neighbors and friends about those crimes.
I have paid prices for both speaking out, and for becoming silent personally regarding them.
Corrupt cops, their snitches, and prison kitchen administrators are not availed highly classified CIA intelligence, or informed of it's existence. That information is compartmentalized, and those violent thugs are not able to link such revelations to me personally and end my life to end my speech.
I do not have specific observations to report regarding CIA or similar high level state actors, so they do not physically intervene in my comments, but we see how often murder to censor such whistleblowers does happen. From Vince Foster, Bill Porter, and Seth Rich, the list is almost more than anyone can comprehend. I include Michael Lesin amongst them, and you, like most people, have never even heard of him, I bet. Largely based on evidence provided by those that do have such personal evidence to reveal, which I believe because it is completely the same kind of abuse I have witnessed by far less powerful, and less able to profit from it, are executed by government agents. Therefore my discussion of these higher level matters does not attract people able to surveil me with such sophisticated and expensive mechanisms and end my speech. Such surveillance as they do from time to time undertake reveals that I am not the source of that information, so taking me down by them personally could only lend credence to my posts on these matters, and neither succeed in hiding that information.
Surveillance is a multifaceted industry, and many different actors undertake, from petty burglars that want nothing more than any possessions I may have they can steal in a moment of vulnerability to sell for crack, to CIA, Mossad, and other agencies that have far higher bars for undertaking action.
So, here I am, remaining able to speak the truth without being beaten in the street, stabbed in my driveway, or shot by a sniper, nor am I banned, shadowbanned or my account deleted because I use Steem to post these facts, and not Goolag, Twatter, Fakebook, or their ilk. I minimize my possessions, so that I can literally leave my doors unlocked, even wide open, and not even crackheads want to risk stealing my worthless possessions. I do lots of work for my neighbors to increase the risk for petty thugs and criminals to harm me.
Indeed, for a reason I will not divulge here, in the last two days some neighbors have given me hundreds of dollars in food that corruption in a business deal prevented me from being able to buy myself. I account my neighbors far more valuable than mere money for this reason, amongst others, such as occasionally checking that I am still well and unharmed if they don't see me for a few days, and watching my home like hawks.
This is what works for me well enough to have eliminated almost completely the threats and violence I have formerly experienced, and why I think it works. Nothing is more dangerous than the truth to a fool who does not consider how telling it will inspire which parties to seek to silence him and how. I work hard at not doing that foolish thing, and see these considerations are actually working as I intend.
The value of neighbors, local communities, some churches, some families, like you said, in helping each other out with food boxes, as opposed to excessive reliance to governmental, federal welfare, socialism. You are right with what you are saying.
Vulnerability
I worry that people may go after my family or after people connected to me. I'm not married. I have no kids. But I have siblings, parents, relatives. I know, I am still a nobody at the moment. But if I were to ever expose too much. I just contemplate what might happen. I was living in Vietnam. I think about exposing corruption in their government, perhaps. But that may prevent me from being allowed to returned to Vietnam. I feel that it is better for me to live in America at the moment. Life is like chess. So, I try to think several moves ahead. I write a bit on Steemit. I try to pass on information to the world. I try to do my part. And some people are attacked. Some landlords are refusing to rent out to Trump Supporters for example. In blue states, it can be tougher for patriots. CPS agents are dividing up families. All kinds of things are happening. So, we are in a war.
Truth
That's right, nothing is more dangerous than the truth to a fool, like you said. Yeah, like V For Vendetta, truth inspires. It spreads. Like dominoes.
