Love the paleo and 21 convention stuff but clearly have very little understanding of who Thomas Jefferson was all about. Cut the libertarian bull-shite.

This is a common comment for me to receive. It essentially says “I agree with and believe you are right on a staggeringly wide array of topics … with the exception of politics.”

What’s most tragic about this comment (besides the fact that I am NOT a libertarian) is that people aren’t more curious about their, usually very passionate, disagreement with me on this single specific topic. People just bury their heads in the sand on it, in spite of the fact that I have been at the spearhead of what amounts to one of the best comprehensive resources of knowledge in the world.

It’s as if viewers and readers go down a check list of topics that I spread information about, and rank what they find.

It’s an enormous anomaly staring people in the face, that they write off as insignificant or a fluke.

REALLY?

Who really believes I’ve been so diligent on such a wide spectrum of knowledge that I would make a glaring mistake and get something not a “little bit” wrong, but completely, utterly, and totally fucking wrong?  The error is of course not with me, but with the individual who still has not grasped that contradictions are not possible, and that therefore there are no contradictions in reality.

To those that have grasped this concept my political convictions are similar if not the exact same to your own. In fact nothing else is even possible. The conclusions I have come to are logical and fully coherent. Anything else would be incoherent and inconsistent.

Hence the saying “Rational people come to the same conclusions.”

Of course they do. We’re all dealing with the same reality that exists independent of our ability to perceive it. This doesn’t make us all clones, it makes us sane and right. Yes, the borderline forbidden “right”; as in “I’m right and you’re wrong.”

Of further interest to me is the paradox that my political convictions are better, clearer, and more fully developed than any other set, yet, are what is most frequently disagreed upon. Few people hold my political convictions for example and call me “full of shit” when it comes to nutrition and exercise. It simply hasn’t happened yet, and it may never happen.

I think this is a reflection of the depth of thought required to come to the political conclusions I have. It’s higher level thinking that deals directly with life, death, and violence scenarios. Nutrition takes years if not decades to kill, and it kills slowly.

Sarcopenia in the face of a lack of proper exercise takes even longer to result in lowered quality of life, serious injury, and perhaps death.

The fact that politics ultimately deals with a gun in your face an immediate death requires serious moral courage to face and make the proper conclusions on. Many people lack this. Some will develop it in a long enough time span. Most will not.

I’ve never taken the time to consider whether or not the CDC is constitutional [EDIT: I checked, it's not]. Which is a polite way of saying “legal”. Regardless of whether or not it is, stuff like this makes a strong case for abolishing it entirely, or dramatically reducing it’s scope, specifically removing it from the realm of nutrition forever.

CDC researchers say mothers should stop breastfeeding to boost ‘efficacy’ of vaccines

On a creepiness scale of 1 to 10, this is a 15. 

The CDC is funded by violence. It’s a federal agency that is paid for largely by your income tax, which you pay, or go to jail for not paying. If you refuse to go to jail, you will be shot by armed IRS agents. If you think I’m joking trying making $100,000 fiat dollars and ignoring the IRS for the next 2 years.

You’ll be murdered. A federal judge agrees.

And this is the shit your income tax goes to pay? An agency that promotes putting infants on soy formula so their fucking vaccine might work better? What the fuck?!

Here is what Doug McGuff M.D. has to say about being taken off the teet as an infant.

Doug is a practicing emergency room physician and licensed medical doctor.

The CDC spent your money, taken from you by the threat of violent force, to perform this research.

That’s nuts.

Little pisses me of more than grumpy, old, bitter people criticizing those in their 20s and late teens for being “too idealistic”, and then grouping us all into one undefinable glob. While this post is not focused on the video seen above, it exemplifies exactly what I am talking about.

It exemplifies a lethal betrayal, bottom of the barrel self-esteem, and outright moral cowardice.

“Go fuck yourself.” is too kind a comment for any idiot willing to say such a thing, on radio or otherwise.

Like I said though, this post is not about her, her betrayal, or the personal misery she lives with every day. It is about the collective grouping she expresses in her statement. It is about the homogenization of every young person into one giant “naive” group.

• I am not a hippie.
• Readers of this blog, are not hippies.
• Fans of The 21 Convention, are not hippies.

Being a principled young adult with unyielding integrity and the moral courage to challenge the lies you’ve been fed since birth is the polar opposite of what this meme picture represents, and what that woman in the video claims.

False Idealism vs. True Idealism

It’s not always easy to discern between a principled young adult, and one who is a raving idiot protesting on a street corner about everything and nothing all at the same time with no purpose, or clear line of reasoning to support their anger.

It can be even more difficult to discern between abstract ideas that fuel these factions. What sparked this post is just that: a successful young man in his mid twenties, with some seemingly good ideas and tips to share.

I’m going to nitpick a few that are quite the opposite. That are in fact destructive, and make a mockery of the very conception of “the good”. Ideas that fuel the continued philosophical decay of the entire world.

Ideas that are intellectually and morally toxic.

From “In Over Your Head” (hat tip to Richard Nikoley for the find)

“100 Tips about Life, People, and Happiness”

From a NY Times Bestselling Author

1. True wisdom and insight is always free.

The fuck it is. Someone had to work for and earn that wisdom and insight. SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE, at some point, paid for it. You were not entitled to that wisdom and insight. If you received it without stealing it it’s because someone was either generous enough to give it to you or because someone else figured out — through hard work and effort — how to get it to you by charging you a different form of currency. Time, effort, attention, reputation, word of mouth, etc.

There is no such thing as free. The very idea is poisonous and anti-reality.

And what of the wisdom and insight that are the product of brutally hard work, blood, sweat, and tears?

This statement makes a fundamental mockery of the individual who works and works fucking hard for what they receive in return.

6. Remain skeptical forever.

This is another dangerous idea that is psychologically unstable and inevitably damaging. What should I be skeptical of? Everything? My own mind? Sensory perception? Reality?

Take the example of God. There is no evidence of “god” existing. The very concept of God defies the requirement for evidence. God by definition defies reality.

What am I to conclude? That because I cannot prove God “doesn’t” exist, that I must remain “skeptical” of his existence as asserted by others? That’s insane. I am not skeptical, I completely reject the idea.

This is the only rational conclusion a person can make. Every other conclusion is irrational. Every other conclusion is without reason.

Reality is not so kind. Being “skeptical” of gravity at the top of a 10 story building results in death.

9. Join a movement.

I’d bet the world that this statement stems from the conventional wisdom of “devoting yourself to a cause or movement”. Usually unknown to the people preaching this nonsense, this is code for living through others.

Which is code for living for others.

Which is code for living for anyone and everyone’s happiness but your own.

Which is code for collectivism.

Which is a mask for altruism.

Which is a clever cover for self-sacrifice.

This is the ultimate conclusion of this harmless little idea.

Why the hell should you join a movement? What is the meaning of doing so? Do you have good reasons for doing so?

Will you continue to live for your own selfish happiness?

These are ultra important questions that go unanswered in this nice little “tip”. Without sharp answers, it remains undefined, and unlimited in scope.

Go ahead, join the next death camp movement. Join any movement. Just be sure to join a movement. Don’t bother questioning why. Any movement will do. Happiness is not possible without others.

12. Read more. Especially things you disagree with.

This is preached frequently at colleges today, including Harvard.

It’s disgusting advice that belongs in a trash can.

Think about the actual meaning of this: it’s the dietary equivalent of ”eat more, especially things that are unhealthy and even poisonous”. No one would ever say that about nutrition.

Why would anyone say that about what you feed your mind?

This is a statement of moral cowardice. This is synonymous with saying “be open minded”.

Open minded to what? Anything? Every piece of trash that comes my way? Every e-mail that pops in my inbox? Every comment that appears on my blog?

My time and my life are more valuable than that.

13. Get used to feeling stupid. It’s a sign of growth.

Interesting statement. Contrast it with

“Get used to feeling intelligent. It’s a sign of success and respecting reality.”

My statement is the polar opposite of his. Which one would you want to live your life by?

I’ve cherry picked tips that were horrible from the list. I don’t know the author personally. Not all the tips are bad. Stand on your own judgement and take a look yourself.

Until 48 hours ago, I had not seen a dentist for any reason in over 6 years. I have completely avoided fluoride toothpaste for about 4 years, and have avoided water containing fluoride as often as possible during that same span of time.

According to the dentist, I do not have a single cavity.

I drink coffee almost every day for going on two and a half years now.

My teeth are significantly whiter than average.

Apparently my gums are lightly inflamed. According to the scale presented at the dentist’s office, I am dead center average with this.

A regular cleaning should “fix” this, but I question whether the inflammation actually means anything.

I’ve taken about 5,000 IU of Vitamin D3 every day for over 2 years. I started taking a daily supplement of Vitamin K2 about  2 months ago. I continue to eat plenty of grass fed dairy, especially butter.

I brush once daily. Rarely twice. I always use fluoride free toothpaste with a bit of baking soda sprinkled on. I floss 3-4 times a week. I’m beginning to think the “trick” is to floss your teeth aggressively, while being very gentle on the gums themselves.

I often use a “natural” mouth wash, that I always water down with 1 part water, and often 1 often part hydrogen peroxide. I do this after flossing and before brushing.

I never eat gluten grains. I rarely eat non-gluten containing grains. My total carbohydrate intake ranges from 10-100 grams per day. I drink almost nothing but water, coffee, tea, raw grass fed milk, and the occasional glass of grapefruit juice.

Seeing a dentist yearly may not be a bad idea, but it may also be unnecessary. Fluoride is definitely unnecessary, and is likely harmful.

While I realize I am not a major celebrity, and that this endorsement comes as nothing less than obvious to long time readers and viewers, I have decided to officially endorse Ron Paul for President.

I have made this decision to endorse Ron Paul, and lay out some basic points as to why he is my choice, because while not enormous, the reach of my voice is significant enough to warrant making this endorsement.

The totality of my work being viewed over 150,000 times per month, and climbing.

Something few 23 year olds can claim anywhere in the world, from any profession or background.

Something I intend to leverage to the max in this endorsement, regardless of the size of the impact this endorsement will have.

~~~

There are three easy to understand reasons why I am supporting Ron Paul, perfectly illustrated in the picture seen below.

From left to right they read federal reserve, IRS, and military slavery. These terms represent institutions, concepts, and practices I absolutely despise, hate to the highest degree possible, and will oppose to the day I die.

The federal reserve target is representative of fiat currency, and more importantly, the legal tender laws used today to violently force you to use the “reserve notes” (US dollars) that the united States Federal Reserve prints.

To be clear, in the year 2011, in the united States of America, the freest country on earth, you will be arrested by any means necessary if you choose to create and use your own money, yourself, through a bank, or otherwise.

If you defend your life in this scenario by resisting arrest — and the imprisonment which follows — with equal or greater force — such as you would use in a mugging or robbery — you will be shot and killed by law enforcement officers.

You would be labeled a “crazy domestic terrorist”, and it would be hailed a victory for law enforcement who gunned down the man or woman who wanted to use their own money, rather than money forced upon them.

To be clear, this is bat shit insane in a professed free society.

Ron Paul absolutely opposes the Federal Reserve and their theft-by-inflation robbery of the people of these united States(which means that they print so much money, so fast, it rapidly devalues the money you actually hold).

Ron Paul opposes the federal reserve and has sought to abolish it since before I was BORN. His plan as president is to phase the federal reserve out of existence as fast as practically possible. He absolutely opposes legal tender laws — along with all unjustified use of force against people who have not actually committed acts of violence or fraud.

The IRS target represents income tax, and more importantly, violently enforced tax. Which is to say that for refusing to pay, say a tax on your income, you do not lose access to services, you face violence.

The same process that applies to legal tender laws also applies here. For refusing to participate in say, income tax, you are arrested, hauled to court, and ultimately, sentenced to jail.

If you resist this process with equal or greater force — such as you would a mugging or robbery — you will be shot. Having hurt no one, you will be murdered by law enforcement officers. You’ll be called a “domestic terrorist”, and it will be hailed as a victory for law enforcement by local as well as national news stations.

To be clear, this is absolutely bat shit insane in a professed free society. It would only make sense in a society under the rule of say, Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union, or communist China.

It is utterly incoherent in this country, and Ron Paul absolutely opposes the IRS, the income tax, and all violently enforced tax for that matter. He will work to abolish them in that order.

He opposes them so much that in the interim period, which would be met with much resistance from closet communists and fascist pigs that have invaded my country, I believe he would issue presidential pardons to any individual that was accused of any sort of crime relating to personal income tax.

Such as he would pardon all non violent drug offenders — getting high as a kite on any flavor of drug you choose being perfectly legal under the declaration of independence and the federal constitution of these united States.

The military slavery target in the image represents military conscription, or “the draft”. Many people write this subject off as irrelevant, however, I argue that THAT is precisely why a potential draft is so dangerous: it is not discussed or seriously opposed by any candidate currently running for President, in any party, except Ron Paul.

What does exercising your liberty and resisting “the draft” mean, applied in real life?

It means for refusing to be a slave in the military, you will be arrested, dragged to court, and forcefully locked in a cage, like an animal. Local and state law enforcement will not protect you from this process, in fact they will be the ones helping to carry out this process, in direct violation of their oaths to the federal constitution of these united American States.

While I realize there is a long tradition and tolerance for slavery in this country in the flavor of violently enforced military service, tolerance and tradition DO NOT DICTATE LAW. Contrary to the lies you’ve been told since birth, law is not a matter of opinion, perspective, whim, wish, or emotion.  It is determined by fundamentals of reality, and what is physically written down in pursuance there of.

Consequently, it is true of every country earth that unalienable rights were not, and cannot ever be delegated to government (or anyone else for that matter, hence the “unalienable” part).

Unique to any government operating in a union or under a contract — like the US Constitution and the federal union of States it represents — validated and connected to reality BY the declaration of independence, those unalienable, individual, easily observable rights are positively asserted in that legally binding document that declared total secession from Great Britain.

To be clear, like legal tender laws and income tax, if you resist a military draft in the defense of your life by the means necessary — which means equal or greater force directed towards the individuals attempting to ship you off to kill Muslim people — you will be shot and murdered in your own home by law enforcement officers. In the freest country on earth, you will be labeled a “domestic terrorist” and it will be hailed as a victory for all law enforcement agencies involved.

Having rationally defended your unalienable rights, legally asserted in the declaration of independence, you will be FUCKING DEAD.

Like in the case of legal tender laws and income tax, gunning people down in their own homes for refusing to sacrifice themselves for a worthless cause, remains a radical, extremist position held implicitly by

• Barrack Obama
• Mitt Romney
• Rick Anal Froth Santorum
• Newt the Grinch

and on, and on down the 2012 presidential lineup.

Ron Paul absolutely opposes slavery in all forms in this country, for any reason what so ever — that includes the military, at any time, and under any context or condition. You have a RIGHT to your LIFE and your LIBERTY.

You have a RIGHT not to be gunned down in your own home for refusing to participate in income tax, legal tender laws, or wars of aggression.

I will repeat myself so it is ultra-clear: income tax, legal tender laws/federal reserve, and military conscription, are radical positions. I am not a radical, and as a fourth generation American, second generation Floridian, and young business owner, I simply cannot get behind these EXTREME positions that all candidates running, with the exception of Ron Paul, ENDORSE.

I’m a realist. I’m a practical man, and I simply have to endorse the only rational candidate running for president. He opposes government sponsored murder of people in their own homes, like any sane, practical, reasonable person would oppose.

A vote for any candidate but Ron Paul is a vote for war, a vote for income tax, a vote for legal tender laws, a vote for military slavery — and a vote for killing people who do not wish to participate in these things, and in fact recognize their legal right not to.  They recognize that the US Constitution in it’s entirety cannot ever include the violation of unalienable rights, the non-contradictory protection and securement of which was legally asserted as the sole purpose of government in the declaration of independence.

A vote for Ron Paul is the only rational, practical, reasonable, sane vote you can make this presidential election, because he is the only candidate who does not support initiations of violence. Such violence, like in the 3 examples I gave, are CRAZY, radical, and extreme. Implicitly endorsing the murder of people for not paying income tax, refusing to join the military, and using their own money, should land you in the NUT HOUSE, not the White House.

With that said, let it be known, I endorse Ron Paul for president. I support him 100% and his positions on the issues 99.99999999% of the time. If you value your life, I strongly encourage you to do everything within your power to help him win the Republican nomination, and the presidency of these united States. Send him money. Share and support any video or media item that endorses him in any way.

If you live overseas, FIND A WAY.

If you happen to be loaded with cash (more than the $2,500 contribution limit to his campaign), send money to the Revolution Pac, which can receive unlimited contributions.

Thanks for tuning in. Live free or die.

This is a brand new speech on The21Convention.com given by level 3 CFA Gary Korolev. As the title states, it’s about the history and future of money. Gary is highly critical of fiat currency and central banking in the presentation, especially when it comes to the federal reserve of the united States.

For some of you, the concepts presented in this speech will be brand new. For others it will be a review. Regardless, I think everyone will enjoy it in full.

As the founder of The 21 Convention, and as someone who passionately f*cking hates the federal reserve, it’s a very welcomed sight at my own event.

In related news, and as discussed to a degree in the video, Texas Congressman Ron Paul is hours away from WINNING Iowa. For international readers who do not understand what this means: it’s a very, very, very, very good thing.

Relevant to the video, it’s a giant step towards abolishing the federal reserve, as well as legal tender laws (meaning our right to choose our own money is within striking distance).

It was very peculiar, thought Keating. Toohey was asking him a great many questions about Howard Roark. But the questions did not make sense. They were not about buildings, they were not about architecture at all. They were pointless personal questions — strange to ask about a man of whom he had never heard before.

“Does he laugh often?”

“Very rarely.”

“Does he seem unhappy?”

“Never.”

“Did he have many friends at Stanton?”

“He’s never had any friends anywhere.”

“The boys didn’t like him?”

“Nobody can like him.”

“Why?”

“He makes you feel it would be an impertinence to like him.”

“Did he go out, drink, have a good time?”

“Never.”

“Does he like money?”

“No.”

“Does he like to be admired?”

“No.”

“Does he believe in God?”

“No.”

“Does he talk much?”

“Very little.”

“Does he listen if others discuss any … ideas with him?”

“He listens. It would be better if he didn’t.”

“Why?”

“It would be less insulting — if you know what I mean, when a man listens like that and you know it hasn’t made the slightest bit of difference to him.”

 

 
I believe this is Ron Paul’s single greatest debate performance in history. As I’ve discussed before, Ron Paul is set to win the office of the president and become the next President of the united States — one of the few men in American history who will actually be deserving of that title.

Many people are still skeptical to varying degrees about this. I believe the majority of skeptics left fall into one of two camps. There is a minority of people left who are genuinely ignorant of Ron Paul. They will “come around” easily as Ron Paul continues to destroy what’s left of status-quo politics.

The two main camps then are

A. Zombie Sheep

Brainless, spineless cowards who long ago lost the ability to think independently. These are the people who will be writing in “John McCain” because they still think it’s 2008. Most of these people will sleepwalk through their entire lives and will never support Ron Paul, life, and liberty. Such a man and such concepts are antithetical to their entire existence.

B. Non-zombie sheep (flat line thinkers)

These are the masses of people who are ‘open’ to the idea of Ron Paul as president, but only think and act if the herd approves. Many of these people like Ron Paul, but will only vote for him when it’s staring them in the face that he not only has a chance to win, but a very high chance, because “everyone” likes him now. These people are largely incapable of thinking long range, and hence, are unable to accurately predict Ron Paul’s championship victory.

So rather than looking at everything as it is today and projecting that out for the foreseeable future, long range thinkers are able to spot the fundamental compounding trend in Ron Paul’s campaign, and subsequently sum it — such sum total being his victory.

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 = fail

1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5 x 6 = win

My prediction stands. Ron Paul will win the republican nomination, thanks to

• young adults
• libertarians
• independents
• tea party republicans
• democrats (taking the time to switch parties or vote as a democrat when allowed in their State)

Ron Paul will then have the support of all these groups, most smaller political parties, a significant number of democrats who hate war, hate the federal reserve, and love weed — and the entire republican party.

Think for yourself, RP has this in the bag.

Literally speaking, whenever someone violates your unalienable rights*, with open violence, you have a right to defend your self by any means necessary, to preserve your life and limb from serious or lethal injury. This includes the use of a firearm of any type, size, or power.

What ‘authority’ the violator claims is of no objective consequence so far as your rights are concerned — and declarationally speaking, of no legal consequence.

Good video, good article, give it a watch/read.

– Anthony Dream Johnson

*If you forfeit your rights by violating the rights of others, this no longer applies, such as when a criminal robs and murders someone, and is then shot by police in pursuit, an armed citizen seeing the conclusion of the crime and attempting to stop the criminal, etc.
