Since America is probably ending, I have a suggestion.

Posted on 12/07/2022 7:54:47 PM PST by Jonty30

Historically, once a country is on a path to socialism, it is very nearly impossible to turn it around. It also takes upwards of 100 years to work socialism out of society.

This is where, I believe, America is now heading. The liberals have managed to create a voting system that almost ensures an electoral win every single time and I don't think America can recover.

So I have a suggestion. In the event that America really is done, as we all knew her, I suggest that each of you start gathering documentation of America's founding and the Founding Fathers and everything about America, including the educational materials like math and science and English and civics and everything.

I do not doubt that, once the communists have taken control of Congress, they will make what is in the archives disappear. They may even openly burn the Archives, because they have so much contempt and hatred for America.

In the event that the day should come and we can start working socialism out of America, this information will be like gold. I'd even suggest signing books out of your public libraries and "losing" them and giving the libraries the replacement costs for the books, just so you have a record of something.

I do believe that America falling into socialism is a necessary step just before the coming of the Messiah, but if the Messiah is not coming for hundreds of years, we will say, then we need something to build upon once this madness has passed from the American people.

Absolutely.

And the enemy wants us to just give up. That makes their victory easy.

We patriotic Americans have to get feisty and fight back.

That said, what we really need are some leaders that we can get behind. Leaders that will speak for us and enunciate clearly the problem we face and the solutions to that problem.

As Churchill said, “I was not the lion, but it fell to me to give the lion’s roar.” (i.e., the lion was the British people, of course)

We the people may be the real lions, but we need some leaders to roar for us.

As an aside, I think we patriots make a big mistake when we expect our leaders to be perfect. There are no perfect leaders.

We have all heard some conservatives say that Trump, for example, isn't a conservative or Christians say that Trump isn't a very good Christian. But, long story, short, we have to go to war with the army we have, not the one we wish we had. The same thing applies to our leaders.

America is on the verge of collapse. It is the only way to “Go Green”. You can’t bring the world up to our standard of living, so the Democrats will bring the US down to the rest of the worlds standards.

All according to plan, all according to plan...

To: Seeing More Clearly Now

To: Flick Lives: You’re missing the point. Libraries have for decades already been decommissioning (weeding) books that don’t fit the woke narratives and will continue to do that with more and more titles and categories of the written word.

We’re in the 21st century. If you’re worried about books disappearing, you can download any book for free, which is out of copyright, from Project Gutenberg. Then you have your very own copy.

And has the last American already left Miami? Is Miami "no longer American?" I first read that remark in the 1980s. Has it now, 40 years later, been proven true? Serious question.

Perhaps the idea of an American has changed since the 80's. It certainly isn't the same city is was then. It's far more Latino today. Personally, I enjoyed the Cubanos and their businesses in Miami Beach. They reminded me of South Philly Italians in some ways.

...and a host of other exotic technologies, there is really no place to run.

They also have AI, which is likely at least an order magnitude above what we've seen, as well as total real-time surveillance and data capture/storage that AI uses to vastly out think and predict and search out whatever they tell it to. Imagine the amount of data stored at the NSA's facility in Utah supply dozens of supercomputers running AI.

Regardless of how you feel about the whole Q thing, some info came out that most in the public previously didn't know. One bit of info I found interesting was the stories about the supercomputers. At the time, I had little idea of how powerful these artificial intelligence programs could be when applied a whole range applications. Especially when coupled to a vast real-time data collection initiative. It probably all came together and gelled around the time they began construction of the facility in Nevada.

It's like a 'magic genie' whom you can get all kinds of real world applicable answers from, like when will the price of Bitcoin hit 60k again, and etc. What we have access to contains dated data, and likely not nearly as powerful as what the 'elite' have access to.

Here is another thing I asked ChatGPT:

me: How do the people overcome stolen elections?

ChatGPT: The people would not stand for this blatant theft of their democracy. Protests erupted across the country, with millions of people taking to the streets to demand justice. The Shadow Syndicate, caught off guard by the scale of the backlash, scrambled to hold onto their power.

Meanwhile, a coalition of concerned citizens, journalists, and government officials had formed to expose the Shadow Syndicate's crimes. They worked tirelessly to uncover the evidence and bring it to light, using social media and other tools to bypass the controlled media.

As the evidence against the Shadow Syndicate mounted, the pressure on the government to take action grew. Finally, after weeks of protests and mounting public pressure, the leader of the Shadow Syndicate was arrested and charged with election fraud.

With the Shadow Syndicate no longer in control, a new election was held. This time, the people's voices were heard loud and clear, and the candidate of their choice was elected. The people had overcome the threat to their democracy and restored their faith in the electoral process."

Many books are unavailable. Many no longer in the library.

You are at a buffet and saying there is nothing to eat...

https://www.gutenberg.org

...and if that is insufficient, you can download any book that is out of copyright for free from other sources.

https://bluesyemre.com/2019/01/06/25-sites-with-free-public-domain-books-to-download-freeebooks/

Once you download it. it’s yours. Back it up. Make hardcopies.

Here is another. While reading, keep in mind what they have is orders of magnitude above this. Has access to real-time data from all the cell phones, emails, texts, Alexas, ....

Me: Write a summary of events leading to a group stealing elections in America and how America's enemies took advantage to attack her

ChatGPT: It all began with a group of political operatives who were determined to steal the upcoming election at any cost. They used a variety of tactics, including voter suppression, disinformation, and hacking into voting systems.

Despite the efforts of election officials and cybersecurity experts, the group was successful in swaying the outcome in their favor. The new administration, filled with individuals who were loyal to the group, took control of the government.

But the group didn't stop there. They used their newfound power to further their own interests, ignoring the will of the people and the rule of law. They filled key positions in the government with their own supporters and worked to undermine democratic institutions.

As the situation worsened, America's enemies saw an opportunity to strike. They began launching cyberattacks against key infrastructure, such as power grids and financial systems. They also began to support terrorist groups within the country, causing chaos and instability.

The American people, outraged by the theft of their democracy and the attacks on their country, took to the streets in protest. But the new government, with the backing of the group that had stolen the election, used violent force to suppress the protests.

The once-great nation of America was now on the brink of collapse, its democracy shattered and its people living in fear. The world watched in shock as the consequences of the stolen election played out, and the nation that had long been a beacon of hope and freedom was now a shadow of its former self."

What if we started to cheat better than they do?

Forget that. Just LEAVE/ABANDON/ABOLISH the useless GOPE. They are NOT a conservative, GOd-fearing body. Leave them. Join the Democrats and take over the Democrat Party from WITHIN. There are a helluva lot more center-right people than Democrats that can run for office and win. The Dindu's aren't smart enough to do their research on if they are "slaver democrats" or "abolitionists democrats".

One of the things about when the Roman Empire finally fell was that people couldn't believe it could happen and it took much longer then the actual fall for the citizenry to come to grasp mentally that it was over. I think that is happening now.

The day of reckoning is on the horizon and there are not enough young bucks with their heads screwed on straight to take over due to public education, abortion, relativism and liberalism.

The vast majority of public and private institutions have failed us.

Actually, the public and private institutions are performing precisely as desired. They have not failed. The various organizational entities are all doing their job of implementing the progressive agenda of making America into the United Kingdom.

Meanwhile, conservatives happily gather in the center of the arena to be eaten by the lions.

He wanted the pre-woke editions, and he said that there is information that is disappearing from the internet.

P.J. O'Rourke once said he had a set of 1919 Encyclopedia Britannicas and it was the only reference he really trusted.

The kids all believe Wikipedia without question, but anything remotely political is subject to propaganda and distortion.

It takes up a lot less room, is less subject to damage

I'm not sure how old you are; but, I've seen digital media come and go. The succession was 8" floppy, 5-1/4" floppy, 3-1/2" floppy, CDROM, DVD, USB flash memory. USB is at version 3.0 now, I think. There is a similar succession for hard drives.

Flash media fades over time.

The point of the matter is that digital media will become obsolete, and you won't be able to read it. Once the commies take over, it isn't clear that you will be allowed to have a computer. Maybe you won't have electrical power.

Keep paper.

Why, yes, that is so clearly stated in the Bible. < /sarcasm>

It doesn’t say it explicit, but America does fit the clues that describe, including rising when first beast suffers a near deadly wound and rises like a lamb, only to become a persecuting nation of God’s people.

The clues fit.

There is one field with in the Metadata thats just for you to fill in information and keywords that are searchable.

You are referring perhaps to the "Properties" / "Comments" field?

I find that searching for terms entered into the "Properties" / "Comments" field is not an especially robust ("sure-fire") search method. (When copying files from one platform to another, the program freq. stops and tells me "Can't copy 'Properties!' Copy anyway?" That grinds my gears!)

I don’t know the name of the software for Microssoft but I know it’s out there. I use opensource software on Linux.

I think I once heard of this so-called "Linux." I may have also once come across the term "opensource." - That illustrates how "savvy" I am.

I use the built-in search function provided by the "Explorer" (the little yellow folder at the bottom of my computer screen).

It works fine / has never failed me.

Regards,

You are assuming that media can be read in the future. Can you read a 3-1/2 floppy? I have some stuff stored on them. I even have good stuff on 5-1/4 floppies. I even have one 9-track 1600 foot reel of tape that was written by an IBM 360.

Those are all out of reach for most people.
