“There were no laws in Oceania”-just as NO LAWS were broken by Assange (or Alex Jones, or Trump); and there were NO LAWS making us get masked, or stand 6 feet apart, or (worst of all) get “vaccinated”
The targeted are “guilty”-but of what? The government, & “our free press”/Big Tech have SAID they’re “guilty,” so they are; and there were/are NO LAWS that pushed the lethal “COVID measures”
Increasingly now I am aware of, as described in this linked documentary, the staggering amount of time, effort and money perpetually being expended on unsuccessfully fighting off totalitarianism, where collectivism of all stripes always leads. The endless whack-a-mole of that dynamic, how easy it is to completely hijack people’s lives in that never-ending defense, should they choose to engage with such a hopeless and exhausting battle.
It strikes me that the ‘democracy’ model of collectivism is an exceptional one in its ability to create an illusion of participation and control in the minds of those embracing it, offering as it does the theoretical ‘remedies’ and occasional ‘victories’ of court rulings and election results, the theatre of legislative hearings, and the ability to vent and root via one’s media outlet of choice, whether Fox or MSNBC, say, in the U.S. It’s incredibly effective.
All the while ground is constantly lost in the overall. Defeated ballot measures and court rulings can immediately be and perpetually are re-introduced and appealed and overturned, and, almost no one in public service is in any way accountable for their actions, ever bears any risk for their actions. Anyone attempting to engage with that for very long is likely to be exhausted fairly quickly, and to very little effect.
So, disengagement with and rejection of this paradigm and the tsunami of distractions and encroachments upon natural rights would seem the only way forward. How best to do that, I wonder (and above all else at this point)?
