Transcendentalism: The true American character reborn in the Liberty Movement

Author's note: Liberty from Tyranny is never ending. For me, my eyes were opened one night while listening to an old Ron Paul speech. I have mentioned this before, but have to admit that I only understood a fraction of what he was so eloquently explaining. I had to study economies, history, even philosophy and Theology to even start to grasp it, and eventually began to realize that I leaned toward a Libertarian stance.  This means smaller, non-intrusive government whose primary purpose is to insure both protection, and civil Liberty.  He could not, however, effectively deliver that message to the American people, no matter how needed it was. A growing number of people are waking up to the fact that something is not right, but have not yet determined just what that is. Pow! Here comes Donald J. Trump.

No one in my lifetime has done more to stir the pot of our American oligarchy, with in-your- face explanations of nation and empire building, and the dangers of a corporate military industrial complex and banking system alliance that controls our Congress, then Donald Trump.  He has, without a doubt, touched the minds and hearts of many working class people, however...

One concern, I think, goes mostly unnoticed. What we must fight every day, without fail, is Liberty from Tyranny. A dying middle class, the destruction of civil Liberties and the shredding of our Constitution is a result of Tyranny. 

Many are backing Mr. Trump because they want our economy to return, and this is fine... but the Liberty movements' primary concern is Liberty from Tyranny. Surely, if government got out of the way of free enterprise we would have far more opportunity for profit, and dream, but that would be after the fact, secondary, like icing on the cake.  Work for Liberty first. Work to find truth. Work to return our Civil Liberties (Bill of Rights), and insure that no one tramples on our Republic based on Constitutional Law, and the American Dream will return.  

 

Transcendentalism: The true American character reborn in the Liberty Movement

Few writers take up the pen in truth these days. Plagiarism and a lack of validity are rife, where news outlet truths are strangled by imposed taboo, and well-diagrammed schema trickle down from the very top to the many hungry minds of the masses looking for solace. 

Corporate owned and influenced by government, media skillfully crafts a manufactured truth with an imposing twist, slanted by a well orchestrated design. Like a flash in a pan, they use a carrot on a stick, a dog and pony show, and smoky mirrors to help you to forget. Seldom is a story followed to a close, or revisited, just a faded memory. There is always something pressing, an alert every day, to take its place... To even ask the question why, is very rare, as pop-corn distractions fill the void with constant abstract fervor, creating new questions to displace the previous unanswered ones. We choose a side, like Fox and Friends, or CNN, with confidence and poise, regurgitating what little of it we remember. 

Much of what can be called current events are redacted without notice by a populous taught to have a limited attention span, and newspapers demand their reporters write for a sixth grade education. Soon displaced, it becomes exceedingly difficult to get to the truth of a matter, unless you investigate yourself. No longer, if ever, can you trust any media outlet to be impartial, and as truth is manipulated, accuracy is pulled and pushed to fit their particular envelope. Those who push this mass of distraction aside, and drive forward in investigation, find that what was presented as truth was little more but assumptions and suppositions, dead-end substantiations that blind us like a needle in an eye. In this confusion, we cannot plan with any certainty what side we are actually on, or formulate a volition to actually care for much of anything but selfishness, as it is embedded in us to trust a system that now understands us better than we understand ourselves....

Even for moralists who have historically chosen a side for what they consider righteous reasons, soon realize that both sides of a conflict have little or no virtue, or moral standard. They see a fight coming, but cannot reason, for themselves, what side they should be on. When the time will come, as they are told it must, authority will tell them when and where to die.

We are told from the black box that war is looming; another cold war with Russia... and that world economies are failing. Between mass shootings, we get a glimpse of a disintegrating EU, how black men hate white men and all cops too. We see a disingenuous love-hate relationship with the UN, but can't seem to reason why... as few will take the time to actually view the meetings on C-span. We have information at our fingertips, and yet, we seem to be floundering in ignorance and apathy.  Our southern oil-field economy is disintegrating before our eyes, as our so-called friend, Saudi Arabia, floods the market, for years, with cheap oil... supposedly to bankrupt OUR enemies. Only problem with that is our oilfield infrastructure, in America, is destroyed too, along with America's ability to be energy independent, for many years to come. 

Red tape, and black dots

Everything is connected in this ever-shrinking global community, and it seems now, as central bank tentacles reach into every nook and cranny, that what we do to another has a resounding repercussion that bites back.  Some call it blow-back, some retribution, and others karma, as what you sow, so too will you reap. 

Libya's Qaddafi is a case in point, where he designed his government to protect his currency from debt, and owed nothing to the central bank poised like a fat tick in his infrastructure. Just before he became an enemy, he vied to have his currency based on gold. He is dead. Something standing on its own two feet will not be tolerated by the powers that be, and this should concern all Americans to the very core. If we pull back from our master's central bank, audit the Federal Reserve, look into Fort Knox, and attempt to print our own money again based on silver or gold, will they murder us too?  It is a wake-up call on the cusp of foreclosure, and we trust, and trust, in a time of reckoning.  

Corporations too big to fail, and banks, too big to fail, are protected by the Federal Reserve. Nothing but a corporation, it has a contract that gives it more power than even our congress, and we all, every country around the world, feels the lash of debt slavery. We are witnessing the biggest transfer of resources (tangible wealth), and power, in the surviving historical record... a record currently being rewritten by them.

Transcendentalism, our founder's standard.

The hope of America's original ideology, Transcendentalism, is no longer taught in government schools... and for a reason.

Henry David Thoreau wrote: "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation, and go to the grave with a song still in them." ..and I have often wondered just what he was trying to tell us. Many of our ancestors attempted to explain the dangers we would face, and that the gift we were being given was a treasure no country has ever had before. It was something so profound; people from around the world flocked here to embrace the concept, and to seek their dreams.  They risked their fortune, their very lives, and it was called: Liberty from Tyranny. 

These words of Thoreau above, fill me with a great sadness and dread, as he has put the finger of his mind to my heart. All of us, as is our human nature, dependent on truth to find our way in a dark world... We seek to sing our own song in a humanity of suppression, condescension, and myopia, and have refused the very weapon, the precise tool we need to insure our success. It is called our Constitution. We aspire in this life, all of us, to want something greater than the grind of meaningless mediocrity, and that is the American Dream. His book: "On Civil Disobedience." is masterfully constructed and designed to give us a reason for being Patriots, and it is well-hidden... 

His friend Emerson, another American writer, also speaks to Thoreau's personal desire (and his projection to the rest of society) for something greater than the daily drudge of our current lives. I cannot say that Thoreau should be considered a political writer, but he gave us a profound thought that filled the mind of our ancestors with a burning desire.

Though their writings were considered depressive, by some readers, in study there is also an amazing hope found there that can invariably light our way. 

Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote: "Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen." and "The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be." ...fills me with a great hope. You see, this fight for Liberty from Tyranny is indeed an ancient concept, and it can only manifest itself here in America if it becomes understood by enough people to give a resounding opposing voice. To me, those who could not understand the complexities of Ron Paul, are now clinging to the words of Donald Trump, and these desperate Americans Thoreau knew very well, as he had that same fire, that same need in his heart. Donald Trump has opened Pandora's Box, laying bear the true reasons for the fine mess we find ourselves in today, and once out of that box, they will never, ever go back.  A worthy idea is never forgotten. It may flounder by the oppressive nature of society, but will eventually find its way to light. That is our hope.  

A concept these American writers wrought, may help us to come together for this great common cause of Liberty, and it is called Transcendentalism. It is an American Philosophy. You see, what gives the Liberty movement its true strength, and its teeth... is the comprehension that the world around us "transcends" and goes beyond what we can see, hear, taste, or touch, and is, in some respect, a form of intuition. It is the reason our Forefathers told us that our Civil Liberties can not be mandated by government, but are a gift for God... It is akin to something like an intuition, based on faith... and that both our common and individual destinies are not bound by what is taught to be logical or even what we reason with our senses. In other words, early Americans felt that there is something greater than themselves, something worthy to aspire to, with a trust in themselves to be their own authority on what is right. It is a concept so powerful that they would even sacrifice their very lives to safeguard it, and that is the power of the Liberty movement. That is what has separated America from all of the dictatorships, Socialistic, Nationalistic, Communistic/Marxism that have plagued our world, and that precious and original American concept is most dangerous to the elite who want to dominate and control us from cradle to grave. We must rediscover this most precious gift, given to us by the toil, blood and love of our founding fathers, but also their intellect, and take this county back. At this moment in our American history, only the hope of Donald Trump can fulfill that. 

To be clear, let me say this another way: Far left, Progressive Social Engineers are attempting to destroy this concept, a concept that has made us the veritable envy of the world.  We, from the onset of our Constitution, realized that we the people can aspire great things, because we all hold in us something greater than ourselves, waiting to escape, to manifest, and we, as a people, from every creed, nationality and color, can reach out for any dream. Our destiny is ours. It does not belong to government.

Without truth, there is nothing to venerate. We sit on the cusp of an abyss with a bottom we cannot see, and so desperate to save the America we once knew, for our posterity, we fear that our voice is too weak to make a difference. We must stand together, united in the standard that was passed to us before it was stolen.  I'm telling you now, it is NOT too late. All you have to do is say NO! We will not submit to an oligarchy. We are a Republic, of and by the people. You do not mandate my Liberty, that sir, is given to me by God. 

 

Who are we? Let's consider this...

We are supposed to have a Republic based on Constitutional Law, not a Democracy. Read the Federalist Papers, as they knew that Democracy has never existed... that it has always morphed into mob rule, or a dictatorship. Now there are those who say we are a Constitutional Democracy, but unless we include the word Republic, our true safeguard to Liberty, that description of America is lacking. We are in the Liberty movement, not the freedom movement, and our founders told us that complete freedom could never exist, as there are those who will abuse it... and that is why we have law.  Liberty from Tyranny is a lofty and concise goal, that can be reached, and maintained with vigilance.  Settle for nothing that is not for the good of America, from the lies we find on television, newspapers, magazines, music, movies, and our government institutions, and fight back by not participating. Don't buy it, or into it, and it will disappear. You see, money makes the world go round... Ironically, as Thoreau often pointed out, "society" is really the sum of all people, so the suppression of our inner desires are primarily a result of our own doing. We can control outside influences by controlling ourselves, as he so well articulated: "We have met the enemy, and he is us."

"God bless America. And if you can but grant just one thing above all else... please give us more IQ." -Ken LARive 1989 diary

Collectivism vs. Tribalism: and the breakdown of individualism

Thomas Jefferson said: "There is not a truth existing which I fear... or would wish unknown to the whole world."    Yes, what a concept. Truth, in a world of lies. A world where anything goes...

Helping our culture to succeed is a survival technique, and cultures who have lost that ability fail...

Some forms of culture are not able to assimilate peacefully. They have violent invasion ingrained in the very fabric of their culture, with propped up justifications heralded by ancient religious texts. Some are uneducated, and easily coerced to except religious interpretations as their own, by self-proclaimed religious and cultural leaders who promote their brand of action... surely, some are in the form of terrorism, but another, more subtle, can only be described as slavery of the will, where voluntary servitude originates. Both, in their own right, have no place in America.

On the other hand, some will help each other to achieve the American dream, cornering a market, like owning hotels, or to dominate an industry, like fishing or carpentry. Some cultures come here, and do this very well, winning big, according to free market capitalism and our Constitution. What makes these cultures strong is a sense of community for their individual culture, and having strong family values that prove to be unconquerable assets. 

And yet there are some, who originally were brought here as slaves, and though emancipated by law, choose to serve the same progressive culture that enslaved them in the first place. They find their roots in past suffering, from Hollywood movies and music, created by the same culture that enslave their minds with an oppressive and irresponsible plantation mindset that goes all the way back to tangible chains.  They believe the lies, and eat the crumbs from the table of their enslavers, hoping for a promised present... a present that never comes. They have not yet found that nothing in life is free, that everything is possible if you reach out, that Liberty from tyranny is taking responsibility for your own life, and manifest destiny is your design...

Others hide in the folds of our society, conspire behind closed doors, and control not only the military, but the banks and international corporations who finance and arm both sides of conflict. They also vie to hold the minds of the people they have conquered in check. They do this by controlling all information, from the rewriting of history, to the manipulation of truth in media. They are the most dangerous of all... and of all of the cultures mentioned above, all continually push to live in isolated cultural communities that deny integration and assimilation...  the mixing of culture and the taboo of marriage amalgamation are only two of many separations they hold. They create a microcosm, and some win, and others become violent cesspools of bigotry, unreasoned racism and hatred, ignoring truth for self evaluation and self-determination, revel in self-serving egotism that pass from generation to generation like a curse.  

Many forms of authority have taught us that Tribalism is nonviable in a world moving toward Collectivism. This is an important concept to understand in an ever-shrinking world of clashing cultures... a world growing more violent, seemingly less tolerant of opposing points of view, and these condescension's are bringing us to the brink of another world war.  

America has taken in refugees from around the world, and most try hard to retain their typical social community, and yet are pushed to embrace the values, standards, and founding principles that separates a free and open society from tyranny.  With this said, not all cultures are able to coexist in this mode of thought, but find that creating a sub-culture, within a primary culture, acceptable to most all, can be called nothing but one thing, segregation.  

On Collectivism...

Here in America, we have been strongly pushed, by mandated laws said to be Constitutional, and yet, have been promoted without formal discussion for the sake of truth. Indeed, we vie to live in a Republic based on Constitutional law, and so try to develop a universal collective mindset typically American in nature, and still retain our very valuable individual culture. 

With government involvement, we have had, without a singular doubt, a very real and observable breakdown of self-value and virtue, moral decadence, violent lawlessness, and the overt destruction of individual responsibility, and has, across the board, influenced every other culture trying to survive collectively. It can also be observed that the more authoritarianism grows, the less free we become to express ourselves as individuals, and in the process cultures morph negatively, losing viability, and slowly suffocate. So what I am trying to bring to light here is simple, some cultures have a hard time living under the American system we call a Constitutional Republic, and we must tackle the reason why 20th century Progressive collectivism is at such odds with tribalism. You see, tribalism has been the very backbone of cultures around the world, from the very beginning of recorded history, and far beyond, and was a great survival tool in a world of constant deprivation, starvation, fearful desperation, tyranny and enslavement of many forms, and some are not overtly compatible in a culture who strives to live and let live.  

“Those who deny freedom to others, deserve it not for themselves”
― Abraham Lincoln, Complete Works - Volume XII

This idea, that Collectivism and Tribalism are at odds, is indeed complex, and what I hope to accomplish in this essay, and several more to come, is to simply bring it to light, as consideration for future review and study. It is my hope, as is all of my work... created to advance the possibility of peace, prosperity and Liberty. We must study both the success and failures of ideologies that controlled humankind in the past, so we can articulate our future path with intelligent design.  Some ideas must be understood, and from both perspectives, if we are ever going to dream of a peaceful resolution to the manufactured fear and mistrust that grips us all by the throat, and finally, enslaves us all... there is a solution.

The future of men living in peace, already has a blueprint, as we study both the success and failures of the past. We are, from a simple sheepherder in Tunisia, to an economist in a board meeting in New York, are current observers of our world. Amazingly, the human mind of both asks similar questions of life, and their primary needs are very similar.

Few can comprehend the reasons some cultures flourish, and others flounder, others creatively build and learn, while others destroy and live in the decay they produced... some seemingly can only mimic the creations and success of others, and still, others will tear down anything unlike the mindset they were fearfully taught. That is the juxtaposition of this very real modern convolution. 

It is powerful privileged opportunists of singular mindset, tribal tyrants who control by deception, intelligent, and directed by ancient cultures of slavery from a book their culture wrote as direction. To be free, they were told that the only way to accomplish this is to enslave others, and if they do not submit, to kill every one, both children and women, and to confiscate everything they owned as their own. They believe that god is on their side, and has directed them first person, and this is a powerful justification to do anything at all. Anything, at all. And so, Christians, Muslims, and Jews, kill each other.

It isn't that complicated, after the idea hits home, that each and every person on this planet has a right to exist, and under their own terms, and yet, has no right to dictate their cultural perspectives on anyone else, even if they are commanded to by their interpretation of god.  If they cannot concede their expansionist policies... of stealing land and resources that belong to others, at the point of a gun, or terrorizing and killing innocent people to further their cause, they should be culled and curbed by any means necessary. Indeed, they are traitors to our humanity, and should be assigned to the dustbin of past malevolent tyrants, imperialists, selfishly motivated mercenaries who kill, not for a standard, but for money, and without a comprehensive and inclusive moral compass... A moral compass, based on truth, justice, honor, respect, individual responsibility, the value of human life and worth, righteousness... all principles based on love.

I have written several essays recently on this most powerful topic... they are linked here. To me, our very survival on earth depends on the understanding of these thoughts, so valuable and indeed primary in the fight for Liberty from Tyranny.

"Hillary's America" Trailer | Official Teaser Trailer HD

Hillary, The Movie

Masters of the Universe

Before I get started...

A note on the redacted 911 pages... Yesterday the 28 pages redacted from the 911 Commission Report was finally released. Though I have not yet read them, I have read several very convoluted essays this morning... of lies, fear and bias. My study of what happened on 911 took years of trying, and the truth of this matter is not known by the average American, nor, I might add, do they have the inclination to care. If one could mind-read a fleeting typically American thought on the matter, it might be, "Lets move on." or "What's for supper?" or "911? That's the cop phone number, right" Yes, I'm a bit bitter...

Nothing in the history of humanity has been as costly, from debt slavery, lives, and closer to home... the loss of both civil liberty and the shredding of Constitutional Law.  We are too close to realize the spectacular ramifications of 911, but this story will be told for thousands of years... It is right up there with the burning of the Alexander Library...

Unrelenting war built on fabrication, with blatant evidence omitted or completely ignored, stares an investigator in the face... from a military stand-down, free falling buildings, put-options three days prior, dancing Israelis, and hundreds more, show what can only be described as a False Flag.

It is evident that those who had prior knowledge, and those who were complicit in this most complex and orchestrated attack, will not be completely reveled in this report. It will open the door to many unanswered questions, however, and that is a hope to open the eyes of a populous in denial. What is at stake here, the real truth of this matter, has been asked before the fall of every great nation. Actually, I can think of no question more profound... the most profound question ever asked in the history of humanity. "Who is pulling our strings?" Well, if you can answer that question, found below, you will know who you should be holding accountable when the dust settles. If you are still alive... 

OUR MASTER'S MINDSET

We live in exciting times, with profound, and yet frightful changes poised to be reality. Frightful, because some changes seem both inevitable, and completely out of our control to either confront or question. This is an illusion. What we see on TV seems so dangerous and eminent; they threaten to fracture not only our Republic, but the fundamental foundation of our very reality. Fundamental social systems around the word, and their commonality with us, which have been a part of humanity since the dawn of civilization, are systematically being dismantled. Social systems that have evolved, by trial and error, by great loss and monumental gain, developed for the very survival of our species, in the face of the dangerous unknown, are being crushed.  However, we must also consider that some of what we think we are as a species has been put there by very clever dictators to inhibit our potential, and that most everything we see around us is some form of an illusion.  

Truth is a bittersweet medicine when found, and not always evident as most often only a fracture of it can be seen, or realized. It takes a great effort to find a singular fact, and it must be wanted very badly to be discovered. Of such value, our ancestors knew that without truth, no score could be won, no subject understood, no question could be answered, no liberty from tyranny held, no issue effectively resolved... and anyone caught intentionally lying was considered a traitor. And so, when we depend on an institution for truth, an establishment who holds all of the cards for your future, and theirs as well... knowledge in the hands of a small minority of  affluent, authoritative, highly motivated and skilled... an alliance self chosen to rule and regulate the entire world... yes, yes! We must take stock. Yes, we must pull back that curtain. 

 It sounds trite, even pedestrian, but just as any tyrant in history, we must pose questions. In Germany this year, it has become law that anyone who questions the number of Jews killed in the holocaust, if gas was used in the extermination... or that any Jew deserved it, will be arrested. Here in America, a whistle blower who brings to light government wrong-doing will be hunted down and tried for treason. It is now legal, by mandate, that drones can exterminate an American citizen on American soil without due process, and anyone who thinks to formulate a separate truth from the 911 commission report is branded a Conspiracy theorist, or truther, like that has negative connotations.

  

What makes these powerful elites formidable is their amazing ability, learned and practiced to be unflinchingly opportunistic for hundreds of years... they feed on our talent, hard work and sacrifice, with control not only of our national treasure, but the ability to enslave us in a debt that can never be paid... a debt owed to them.  They also have unlimited resources, as a tightly knit unit without conscience or ethics that can be recognized or comprehended by a Christian's moral standard. Their God is power, control, and a black bottom line...The leaders of all countries understand this, and they are going through the same scenario at the very core of their financial institutions, and will fight back as they feel they must since the world began. Tyrants and Patriots seldom fight each other, but a manufactured enemy, as created by them, die in the theater of war, and never know why... and so, these countries do not fall in line. we have new enemies.... Yes, bankers... Every war is a banker war. 

Our individual cultures here on earth have been systematically coerced by them, one played against the other to promote a more manageable, easily controlled populous for the installation of power, and the extraction of profit.  We must, just as our founders advised, confront this as an obligation, with every generation, for the sake of Liberty from Tyranny. If we don't, or Republic based on Constitutional Law will be stolen from us, and once gone, will be assigned to the dust bin of history, never to be returned without bloodshed.  Many think our Republic is just an illusion, and already lost, as the last drop is sucked dry.

Those who have grown too powerful to fail should be considered too weak to exist. When we are left with no other choice but to bail out a mega banking system or mammoth conglomerate corporation, we should question why with force... but we don't. When they say "too big to fail" what they are saying is that they hold so much ascendancy over our virtual future welfare, we have no choice but to comply. What can this be called but debt slavery? But more, as the proof is right before our very noses: when these transactions are out of our control, when it is hidden from view, and unaccountable to our questions and concerns, that is the proof of our servitude, and it is no longer voluntary. It seems more than business to them, more than religion, even more than ego... and beyond our ability to understand. To them, we are cattle to be used as they will...  Christians have a hard time with this ideologue, thinking that there must be a viable conscience involved, where empathy, love, compassion, fair play, or kindness reigns, as was taught by civilized and loving parents. In the Machiavellian world of dominance, however, that sentiment does not exist. They are predators, and we are prey, and that is why they are winning. 

 "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants"

--Thomas Jefferson

We have been shamed into thinking that our traditions, our language, our race, our cultural ethics are to be forgotten as unimportant, and pushed and pulled to further coexistence, even if it means extinction.  Our manipulators know this well, and use it to make money on both side of war, fluctuation in markets, from carpet-baggier bankruptcy to a national debt created out of worthless paper. The destruction of sovereignty, a shredded Constitution and Bill of Rights, are fertilizer for left-wing Marxist lawyers and politicians to grow fat in the chaos. Behind the scenes, they work together with right-wing lawyers and politicians, and are, for all intent and purpose, virtually indistinguishable in the shadows.  Both sides, most all, are pulled by the same strings, from the same source, and what you see as opposition and debate are little more than a dog and pony show, smoke and mirrors... and that process, called Cronyism, is the true America...  eaten alive by a giant rat.

So, the answer is a simple one for a Patriot. Education based on truth, individual responsibility, liberty from all forms of tyranny, and not to participate in any process that inhibits our civil liberties. Stand up, push back, participate in the process, and learn how to play the game. Infiltrate the one party system, and leave your fingerprints on what is good for America. Run for political office on a platform of truth, justice, and accountability.  Follow the Constitution, and disregard any mandate that opposes it. Know that your civil liberties are manifestly yours as divinely given, and cannot be granted by government. Know that your Constitution protects all Americans, not just your flavor, and if you disregard the rights of any religion, creed, or color, the entire system is a sham. Live and let live is the same as do unto others as you would have them do unto you... and finally, it is your interpretation of the Constitution that is truth, not the institution's clarification. 

And one more thing, be prepared to fight, and die, for something bigger than yourself. That is the true power of a patriot, and that alone is half the battle won. That alone fills the heart of any Tyrant with fear.  It is not too late, and never will be... it will just take more effort.
