Let me start by saying this is a hard post for me to write. It is not without a lot of internal thought and consideration that I am choosing to make this post. Most of the backstory and undercurrents I will NOT include in the post because it is irrelevant to most of you. But needless to say, I've always towed the line, kept my head down in a strategic, covert way, listened, watched, and did exactly as I was expected to do. I am sure many of you whether you recognize it or not have done the same.

By now it should be evidently apparent to anyone with two brain cells that our entire way of life and everything that makes us AMERICANS is under a very real attack. This is a difficult war to fight because the enemy is not easily identified by a flag, country, boundary, or otherwise black-and-white delineation. But the enemy is REAL nevertheless. For those of you versed (or trained) in psyops, you will easily recognize the patterns. Many people on this site have quoted or referenced Saul Alinsky with good reason because the underlying psychology is sound.

The only way to bring down the system is to corrupt it from within. It started with those in our government. You corrupt CIVIL SERVICE and make it SELF-SERVING and you have a pawn who can be manipulated. Color (Red/Blue) is irrelevant. From there, it is easier to infect the entire system...starting with education and moving on to forms of communication. You normalize that which should not be normal. When people speak up against you, you minimize them to the masses. Disney got this one right -



Next, you turn the system on each other. Sow the seeds of distrust. Sow the seeds of dissent. Divide us all so we do not feel a commonality together. Then no one will fight for that which SHOULD bind us all together - our country, our history, our heritage.

If you were to read or watch the news, or watch social media, you might feel pretty demoralized right now. But then you see a shining ray of hope that all is not lost. Here is an example -

Watch: ‘Illegal Fireworks’ Light up the Sky in Los Angeles

Most people by their nature are law-abiding citizens who would never outwardly defy authority. And yet, millions of Americans did so last night all across the US. From border to border, people reported a marked uptick in "celebration" fireworks last night from previous years past. Some might say that people are simply choosing to "celebrate" at home due to the lockdowns and/or cancelled shows by municipalities...and in some regards, they are right. But if you look closer, between the cracks, you will find that people are reaching their breaking point. People are becoming aware of the covert war on their culture and way of life.

I think back to the state of society in the years before the American Revolution. It was much like today where law abiding, non-violent people had to make a choice. Either submit to subjugation and tyranny....or risk EVERYTHING...their jobs, property, families, and their very own lives....to fight that system. Those choices were not made overnight. They were not made in a year. They were made over a series of years and ever-increasing pressures that eventually reached a flashpoint.

Never in a million years did I think I would be where we are today. While I do NOT wish to see this country pushed to another Civil War, I do believe it is imperative for people to be Silent no longer. Don't wait for November. Don't wait for all your rights to be yanked away. Be prepared... Be prepared to be silenced by those who don't want your voice heard. They will take down your posts on social media. The media will not report YOUR protests. Expect that... find another way (non-violently) to be heard that you cannot be ignored. Only through strength in numbers will our VOICES be heard and tyranny averted.



Just as this has been strategically planned to move us to this moment, we must STRATEGICALLY take back our position and our country. This may start with our neighborhoods, our schools, etc... Start by understanding what propaganda may be tainting our children, friends, and family. Make a plan....build your case and ask for help and support, but don't be afraid to go alone if you have to. Support may arrive in the most unexpected places. Adjust your position as you obtain new information or run into obstacles, but don't stop.

But you can stay SILENT NO LONGER. Action is what matters NOW. Only by working TOGETHER will we be heard.

Nicely written. I have always taken the high road, you know be the better person. I am learning that I don't want to live in a world where being a better person means others can walk all over you, and claim they are your betters. That is BS!!

Alinsky Rules include the following: "Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have."

Don't give them too much credit. Especially don't give them too much power. They aren't nearly as strong as they want the rest of us to believe.

What we are seeing are the desperate measures of desperate people for desperate times. Many are suckered in because there are very real problems to deal with -- such as corrupt cops -- and do believe that protests and even riots are their only hope. But these people are being played with legitimate causes for illegitimate ends.

The only solution is to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Wow, that video! I wonder if there is any connection to why our little town here on Vancouver Island, Canada, was absolutely going off with fireworks last night. Our own celebration, on the 1st of july, was very tame this year where normally our town is super fireworks happy. Almost seems like people were holding off until the 4th. Not sure if that is even logical. Perhaps we have a lot of americans here but this year there was no tourism so not likely.

Great post and I can totally relate to the idea of watching and observing for a long time, towing the line. I am typically human in that I fear being shunned by society if others knew what I knew and felt. Nice to know there are others out there and I guess that is why ats has always felt like community to me.

I feel like the *massive* volume of fireworks (and their quality) that went off nationwide were something of a "return salvo" in a conflict that most seem totally unaware of, much less know how to fight it. Notably, in my area, it was much crazier than that vid...

A unified act of defiance. Derived from as many motivations as there were participants, yet united in action in a particularly American fashion. Id guess most of it was subconscious to a degree, but certainly was a conscious decision for others to make a statement.

Ive been speaking out about it for a while, so cant say "I will remain silent no longer." But, I am reinvigorated and will redouble my own personal efforts with regards to technology and inventions that decimate the means of dependency which we have been subjugated by for centuries.

In this case, as with many others, you can find wisdom in those who came before you:



For many years, I have argued on this site that there are NO 'TPTB.' At least, not in the traditional sense that most people assume such as "illuminati, etc" (Rockefellers, Rothschild, and the 13 families, blah blah) And while I still maintain that I was [partly] right, I was also wrong. There *is* a powerful group of individuals who hide in the shadows and manipulate events all over the world and throughout history. They are the Globalists behind the push to remove our borders, eliminate country designations, undermine currencies for political gain, and more.

There are many other competing factions (oligarchies, communist governments, and other dictators) who are willing to capitalize on the opportunities presented through the process of tearing down the US system. Not everyone can be controlled or bought...but often you find situations where enemies align towards a common goal or outcome. Don't be fooled that those who have strategized this attack don't know that...

The Globalists have spent the better part of 3 decades slowly moving their chess pieces into place to instigate a new system. Their system. They have everything to lose and they will defend it with EVERYTHING they have.... No life, history, or tradition is sacred. This is not a game. This is not fiction. They can, will, and have used violence to ensure they protect their turf. They are not stupid and know how to leverage psychology and sociology to ensure they can control the outcome. They have unlimited resources and unfettered power on their side. But even in the face of those odds, we can't give up or give in. We have been caught unaware in this coup d'etat...

How we respond is in our hands.

Start by understanding what propaganda may be tainting our children, friends, and family.


So true. How about Santa Claus. There is some propaganda for you. Be obedient little kiddies or the nice man will bring you a lump of coal instead of an Xbox. Or how about Superman and all the other super heroes that are placed before our children as examples of how to be honest and forthright. IT's all bosh.

And what about all the video games that rely upon sparking the violent tendencies in children and then when they are not playing their killing games, tell them to be nice litte girls and boys.

What about all the stupid sit coms that portray family life built on a template of there is enough money in the family where all the kids can have huge amounts of stuff. Those sit coms where the little kids are told what is and what is not funny because all the people who are watching the show laugh when the laugh track tells them to laugh.

I agree that yes, things are pretty messed up, but the mess is way more than most want to realize.

What are some concrete things we can do? What do you suggest?


Eventually you may be pushed beyond your comfort zone just like those ancestors pre-American Revolution. But until then, do whatever makes you comfortable and builds your confidence and voice. Here are a few ideas...but I'm sure there are many other smart people on this board and around the country who have some equally brilliant suggestions:

1. Arm yourself with knowledge. What do you stand for and why? What might your opposition say to undermine your position and why? How can you arm yourself with multiple facts and sources to combat the opposition.

KEY NOTE - DO NOT rely on internet sources alone. Most internet sites have been scrubbed of real history or it has been altered to downplay particular facts. Why? Because internet searches is the only way the Millennial generation knows how to find information. Go old school and find/use other sources of information - libraries, books, newspaper clippings...especially those PRE-1990.

2. Look around your community and understand where this "anti-American" propaganda is leaking into your community to change opinions. Schools are a primary area where this happens but not the only place. Don't just show up to a school board meeting raving like a madman/madwoman. This will get you nowhere and make you look like an extremist which will be used to undermine your message. You must be strategic in your efforts to persuade. Find out who your board members are.... What motivates them? What connections do they have? Start there and work your way in. Build allies around the people who are your ultimate targets....then use that leverage to persuade the individual to hear you out. Present your case. What are you asking for? What are YOUR solutions? Let's use an example of getting rid of Common Core. Why? Because it purposefully and strategically eliminates critical thinking. Kids don't have to "right" just "try." It eliminates binary thinking which is purposeful. Find out who are the proponents of Common Core and why. What would you replace it with and why? Now, getting rid of Common Core might not seem like MUCH in the scheme of taking back the country, but unhooking our future generations from becoming mindless robots who are easily controlled and don't question authority *IS* a critical step to ensuring we are not subjugated. Free speech is another....which is why it is the FIRST amendment. If you have the right to cancel (read:censor) me because of what I think/say, then I...equally...should have the right to cancel you. People not only need to be taught how to thinking CRITICALLY, but also how to respond CRITICALLY to what they see, hear, feel, and are told. This starts with the youth in school.

3. Next, start petitions. I don't mean online petitions where no one ever sees them and can be easily cancelled. Part of what makes this coup d'etat so successful is that people are so disconnected from one another these days. The internet has allowed us to connect around the world right from our sofa. But has equally meant that we no longer have social interactions (or reduced interactions) with our community. We talk about social media being the new "townsquare." Well, that townsquare is censored and controlled. You can still use it, until they shut you down....(note - plan on this and use it for what it is. This can be a strategy too that hackers have used for years), but don't make it the foundation of what you control. What they can't "cancel" is your ability to go talk to your neighbors, church members, family, friends, and so on... Collect physical signatures...ask those who believe and want to help go collect signatures. Just like you are encouraging a seedling to grow, encourage a movement of voices...coddle it and protect it in a way that it can't be cancelled. Ask people if you can record their statements via video. Burn those statements to a CD or otherwise post it in several hosting sites online and then share those statements with every member of Congress, news media on both sides of the aisle (remember that "bad press" is still press and will get your movement noticed). The key is to not give up....but pace yourself. Don't spend all your waking moments trying to change the world, but agree to commit an hour a week? 5 hours a week? Whatever makes sense to you to make a difference. Just be prepared that if the situation continues to deteriorate, you might have to up your game.

4. Look for other groups who believe what you believe and ask how you can help. Not everyone is a General. Some people prefer to be soldiers in the trenches. That's ok.... Every war that has ever been fought was won because of the "nobodies" who were willing to fight for a belief. The key was the action they took to stand up and say "let me help, what can I do?"

5. If you have the skills and capabilities, we desperately need alternative ways to communicate that are not controlled by the mainstream organizations. This means news & reporting, as well things like ATS where we can communicate with others. There is a reason why terrorist organizations use encrypted services like Signal and the Deep Web. Even if you don't have the skills to spin up a site or control an open discussion forum, you can SHARE knowledge of sites where people can get real, objective news that might tell the real story. That's the beauty of the Deep web, it's off the grid but still accessible if you know where to go.

I am not usually big on the Bible, but I do like Psalm 34:21 when it comes to this one.


Evil will slay the wicked; the foes of the righteous will be condemned.


Seeing all those statues fall does remind my of the early stages of the Iraq war. With all that is going on things do look a mess that is only going to get worst. I hope a lot of infighting does erupt amongst those trying to destroy the nation. It would be cool if Maxwell dropped Bill Gates. He is having way too much fun with this virus.

Keeping up your situational awareness is important, having a network of friends and support helps a lot. just take things a step at a time if it all goes sketchy.

As I recommended in a post yesterday spam the social media feeds of your local reps, sheriff's office, and local news affiliate. Spam them with the name (Bilderberg), the plans hey discussed last year (I documented it, it's in the nwo forum).

There are voting blocs who communicate regularly through these social media feeds but are not aware of the conferences like bilderberg or even World economic forum. Let them know one of our own generals, General McChrystal, has taken his super pac and declared war on America with his own weaponized DARPA AI bots.

And make sure you put links because the automated bots can call you Putin's Putin's puppet or mentally I'll all they want, but when the factual links show these groups publicized this information themselves, what can they say in the face of the horses mouth??

If anyone can help to make images and memes that place this information and the faces of the people guilty of this war declaration on single picture, it would help since some of these platforms are very limiting the volume of writing you can put.

Remember that they want to replace all of your local executive,judicial, and legislative leaders with globalists loyal to foreign powers. So the best way for you as an individual to do your part is to turn their own w es weapons against them and direct locally. Lots of previously uninformed people are looking to their leaders n social media. Mke sure they own exactly who they are working for and who are attempting to replace them.

Also...when collecting information, we can no longer expect journalists to tell the story to us factually and trust what they report implicitly. Most of society is awake to this fact today.... Unless you know the person you are getting information from and know that they are reporting objectively (which is hard for any human to do by nature), then have an understanding that human bias is a natural pollutant of any information you collect. That doesn't mean it isn't valuable information....just something that you need to be aware of.

When I try to get "the real story" of an incident, I work hard to find people who were actually involved or witnessed an incident to get their perspective. We all know that process is not infallible because people are fallible but this is where critical thinking, judgement, and reasoning comes into play. Just the ACT of reviewing the facts as YOU have uncovered them yourself is FAR BETTER than accepting the propaganda that is being fed to you without questioning it and accepting it as "truth."

ETA - when I say "gather the facts from people who were there," I don't mean just review what you find online. Actually TALK to people! Through open source information, you can find almost anything about anyone if you know where to look. Spend a week just educating yourself on Open Source Information so you know how to begin!

People ALWAYS have an agenda, even if it is unconscious or unwitting. Even me...I have an agenda...which is the entire purpose of this post.

I agree with much of what you have posted. I don't think the numbers are as great as they have led us to believe they are. The push is intense, and it works so well because it is all they show. We are the duck being prepared for the foie gras.

I can't use my area as an indicator because we are country folk and we do things a little bit different in the woods. The 4th is always about food, guns, and fireworks. All were displayed in excess last night, mainly because so many have been locked down for so long is was a welcome excuse to blast it up.

Here, several houses gathered and enjoyed the day. I think both races were equally representative. Flags were everywhere and we even sung the Star Spangle Banner together, more than once. I see the vile reprehensible things being constantly posted over and over again, site after site. I see our cognitive dissonance being used against us in max force. And I see too many of us buying into it hook, line, and sinker.

We claim to be so damn smart, yet we not only can't see that we are being played, we are rushing out onto the field, so anxious to play the game that we haven't even noticed the goal posts are being shifted with every step we take.

I had decided to refrain from posting to any posts that are doing nothing but adding more dung to the heap, because the truth is, that most posters are posting just for validation for whatever mindset they have already adopted. Anyone that says anything to the contrary will be either dismissed or attacked. These forums have just become seeded battlegrounds for our own destruction.

If backwoods country rednecks can celebrate together with people of color, there is still more hope than they want us to believe. We definitely need to work together, but first we need to stop swallowing the gavage they are stuffing down our throats.

It's not? A benevolent old man who gives you stuff for just being a nice little kiddie For being obedient? This old guy who lives with a bunch of happy little workers who apparently work for free or at best room and board? Working all year long and all the clothes they can afford are the simple uniforms that the old man provides. How is that NOT an early training in socialist ideas?

And as far as globalism goes, Santa visits all the children of the world. Santa is a globalist.

This may sound picky and argumentative, but the basic foundations of our society have this fable of goodness right in the center of the culture. And when kids get old enough to figure it out, it is then used as an example of how we all should be good to one another even if he wasn't real, he was a good symbol of sharing equally that we should all remember though our lives.

So no, Santa is not the villian you can see, he is the villian deep in the heart of the culture that so many wish to defend against those ''socialists''.

It was Marcus Tullius Cicero (106 BC - 43 BC) in the timeless "The Traitor is the Plague" who said:

“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly.

But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.

A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”

This would be a good start.

Spread it around. It's now on court record Hillary had the FBI sewed up, a machine of unprecedented corruption. This speaks for the rest of the system, too. And it's remarkable very few outlets reported on it.
Also the sheer audacity those people had to frame Michael Flynn. These recording can not be argued with, and frankly it's scary they had the population so brainwashed to believe it.

Of course you do. Also, you won't name the enemy. Who will you target first? The minorities? The intellectuals? The gays? People who aren't patriotic enough? People who aren't religious enough?

Or is your allegiance to the other side?
