Welcome to Keith's night. Don't tread on anyone. This is an excerpt from The Weekly Newsletter of James Corbett, at corbettreport.com. Government itself is immoral. No, I do not want better elections. I do not want to clean up the system. I do not want to get the money out of politics, and make sure every vote is counted and drain the swamp, so we can make America or any other geographical area. Great. Again.
The state is not a benevolent Force as the Brainwash of status, believe it is not even a neutral tool that can be used for good or ill. As those who consider themselves, pragmatists believe it is violence. It is force. It is aggression. It is people believing that what is wrong for any individual to do is perfectly okay, if an agent of the state does it, if I steal it is theft, if the state steals it is taxation, if I kill. It is murder. If the state kills it is Warfare.
If I force someone to work for me involuntarily, it is slavery. If the state does, it? It is conscription, if I can find someone against their will, it is kidnapping if the state does. It it is incarceration. Nothing has changed, but the label, what binds us to the state is. The belief that there is a different morality for anything that has been Sanctified through the political process. Oh, 50. Plus, one of the population voted for forced vaccinations,
then I guess we have to comply. If you scoff at that sentence. How about if the vote was 100% minus 1? Would that change the morality of resistance? How about if forced vaccinations were mandated by the Constitution? Then, would you be compelled to submit? Does The Ballot Box? Transform the unethical, into the ethical? Of course not. But I'll tell you what it does do. It does make everyone who cast
their ballot. A part of the process that legitimizes the murder and violence committed by agents of the state. No, I am not an efficiency manager for the state. I do not want to help it. Do its job of inflicting, aggression and violence on Peaceful people. I want the state to perish, not through violence or Bloodshed, but by removing the mystical Superstition from the minds of the General Public, That makes them believe that government is anything other than a gang of
thugs with a fancy title. This is the point that in my experience, as a communicator of voluntarist ideas, I start butting up against a brick wall of incomprehension, when talking to the normies in the crowd. They start having mental breakdowns, frothing at the mouth that votes need to happen as if voting elections positions of responsibility and other things that exist under statism could not exist under voluntary.
Associations, as if voluntary Association itself, was such an Arcane and bewildering concept that no one could Possibly wrap their head around it. Let it alone. Heaven for bid. Read a book or two to see if their questions on the subject have already been answered. Corbett sites. Chaos Theory, by Robert P Murphy and an agarose primer by Samuel Edward konkan. The third, no much easier to go back to the comforting political wrestling match, Red vs. Blue.
Now that I can get behind. That's a travesty really, because the truth is that it's not Not a complicated message. It's actually remarkably simple. And remarkably hopeful the truth is that there was only one vote that matters sitting around and not voting is not going to change anything. Yes, by all means let's vote. But and you knew there was a but
coming. I'm not talking about voting in some phony, baloney selection to anoint, some political puppet as president of this geographical location. I'm talking about Only vote that matters for the rest of us. There was the realization that the political system itself is just another form of enslavement and enslavement that is all the more Insidious because it asks us to buy into it. All we have to do is push a button or pull a lever or touch
a screen once every four years. And we are now absolved from our moral responsibility. Ironically, this realization is in itself liberating and it's the world into focus with Crystal Clarity. We are not cogs in some machine called Society to be dictated to, by some nebulous entity. We have been taught to call the government or the authorities.
We are free individuals, freely, interacting with those around us Bound by the moral injunction, not to initiate Force against others or take things from others against their will. We are responsible for our actions? Shins and their consequences, both positive and negative. We are responsible for what we do or don't do to help those in our community and make this world better or leave it to rot.
There is no political Messiah that will descend from the Heavens to tell us what to do or to protect us from bad men. All we have is ourselves and our choices. We vote every day. Not in some meaningless election. But in whom we choose to associate, with what we choose to spend our money on, and what we choose to invest our time and energy in doing this, is the essence of freedom.
