Pedes and ladypedes, it's a weird time. Feels like we're all buzzing off some crazy energy, itching for action. I saw someone on Bannon's show today using the tired old line, "We have to stand up for our rights, let's all stand strong!"

That, is an empty platitude. They are easy, non-specific words to say, and you're going to hear a lot of that crap. For everyone wanting ACTION NOW NOW NOW, here are some things I think we can ALL do, and do them now.

  1. Call up your normie center-right friends and acquaintances. People you know are open to good info that you might not have talked to in a while. Tell them about Real America's Voice, Bannon, OAN, and if they aren't offended by language, send them here to TDW. Well, maybe wait for the disinfo and glowing shit to dissipate. I know lots of very conservative people that still watch Fox because their standard reflex is to turn on the cable box. They're all in their 50's. Imagine how much stronger we'd be if all those people were getting the same info we are, and sharing it with THEIR friends.

  2. No more Chinese goods. I'm serious. Don't make exceptions. Want a new electronic device, but literally every single option is made in China? Then too bad. Smart phone broke? Go find that old flip phone in your junk drawer and fire it back up. It still works, trust me. Do you absolutely need something, can't get around it, and the only options are made in China? Buy used. No more patriot money into the CCP economy.

  3. Cancel services. Prime, Disney, whatever Apple offers. Get rid of them. Up until a few years ago, we were all just fine without them. Go with Pluto TV, or one of dozens of others. Or install them ALL, they all have some good stuff (and lots of bad stuff) on them. I could personally just watch the MST3K channel on Pluto and be set for life. You want that one specific show to binge and only Prime has it? Bet you can get it through your local library. Or buy physical media from an independent retailer. There are still some out there in the far corners of the internet.

  4. Delete your mainstream social media, of course.

  5. Don't shop at big box stores. Go as local as your possibly can. Spend the extra money if a small shop is more expensive. It's worth it. This takes money out of the hands of fascist corporations.

I'm sure there are a million other small habits we can change in our day-to-day lives to help the cause of liberty. Put yours in the replies. We need more constructive conversations and less breathless LARPing at the moment.

We are going to have to go to a little extra effort in our lives to do these kinds of things. It's well worth it. I think we all want to see big things happen quickly. But these little things, done by enough people over enough time, should help us out a TON in the long run, and help the big things along.

Agreed. Being “inconvenienced” is not the end of the world, but communism is.
