Over and over I have said so often when it comes to people using the term “the system” that it is incorrect. The correct term is “the systems”. While it is true that in the macro these systems all serve the same objective (control of society) to not see them as individual entities such as the food system, medical system, economic system, etc. will prevent you from ever seeing the truth….
Fighting the system in the way most people use the term is a fool’s errand that only results in picking a side in the system you think you are fighting against.
As always when discussing these concepts I can’t recommend the work of fiction by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson, The Illuminatus! Trilogy highly enough. While it is a total work of fiction it drives home two concepts that even when fully known often get left aside by even intelligent people who then get sucked back into picking one side in a fight that isn’t really a fight. These concepts are…
- Fnords are real and they only work when you don’t see them.
- The people who think they are fighting each other are actually being used to the same end game.
Another way to put this is to quote a great moving about nuclear war from the 1980s…
A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess.
As you will see today the alternate choice being chess will be quite ironic for today’s discussion.

“Make your home a defensible fortress”
not tactically possible. the ones outside will always know exactly where the ones inside are, but not vice versa, and long-range firearms will make this a decisive factor.
Only because you are a total idiot with no idea how to do what was suggested. Go ahead creep up on my property in the dark and well, you won’t see anything it will just happen.
“Take what you want from ‘the systems’ give as little back as possible”
a way of life for many already.
First time listener. I REALLY enjoyed this one. I am now beginning to work my way through the archives. Do you all have any suggestions on good episodes to listen to out of the gate? My wife and I are interested in learning more about prepping… we just bought our first gun… definitely lots to learn! We do live in a conservative part of Texas though so we at least have that going for us.
Lately I’ve been trying to frame my life not only in terms of refusing to “play their game”, but actively creating and playing MY OWN game. A little along the lines Like “Calvinball” for those who remember that reference. Mark a little win for me when I finish a comic, when I finish some significant task, when I learn a new recipe or skill, when I get one over on “the man” (tax season!), etc., and write them on my whiteboard. I haven’t gone so far as “scoring” myself by assigning specific point values to goals or accomplishments like those following the “gamify your life” approach, but aside from that it’s pretty similar. And I may experiment with the “points” angle at some point… as an occasional gamer I can see a bit of an appeal to that.
I know it’s just a mental game, but it helps give me that little extra bit of motivation when I finish things. I think it also helps me see things differently and experience fewer mental barriers. As a creative sort, that’s pretty important to me.
