“but we can refuse to play their game. They have bought our politicians and own the media. Those are also things we need to starve out.”
ABSOLUTELY. And it all comes back around to our own overall power of the purse including consumerism. But it takes dedication and a little minimal effort, sacrifice, and inconvenience. A lifestyle change most absolutely refuse to make. Folks would have to change brands away from charmin because charmin donates their profits to the wrong candidates.
“Wait? Give up my charmin? I won’t give up my charmin and use another brand no matter what”
THIS is the problem and why we are losing this battle...
That’s a good part of it.
Additionally...
“If you look at what they own, it is primarily banks”.
STOP BUYING ON CREDIT! We are living a lifestyle we cannot afford and his is how they have enslaved us.
Yes! I have read 5% and this reveals their murderous intent.
It isn’t credit that makes them the money. They make far more money on transfers of money. There is far more being made with international transfers than on mortgages and credit cards. The federal reserve takes on average 4% per year out of our domestic economy doing this. Credit is a small portion of the banking system’s income.
But ripples in one method creates ripples in all the other methods. They are codependent on each other. Just look at the stock market and how much a 4% difference can make.
Even the huge big “too big to fail” pharm industry is a little worried because of their recent losses in the market. They need to get hit even harder by many more right now and they will back track.
Same with banking... Start with using cash only again. That would throw a wrench in the works. But... Folks are too lazy or in too much of a hurry to count out or carry cash. Our own pure laziness and convenience is our own worst enemy.
But rather than adapt and change lifestyles to stand on principle and fix it, we would rather have short term convenience and end up owning NOTHING. It is dumb as hell.
“Same with banking... Start with using cash only again. “
Absolutely do that. Electronic transactions are where banks make money.
Here in Florida there is a significant push for cash at local businesses. They have signs that say the elites are trying to go digital to squeeze them out and hurt US citizens.
P.S. Many businesses offer discounts for cash, usually 3-5%.
bttt
bump

GOOD!!! It needs to go viral!
Environment and consumerism? A few years ago I picked up a semi load of bottled water at a bottling plant in Montgomery AL. I asked the shipping agent where the water came from. She said, “It comes from the city of Montgomery water supply”.
Yes people are too lazy to fill a thermos at home. And that includes making coffee.
I’m not a coffee or pop drinker, and I’ve never bought a red bull, monster, or such like. People like me are the enemy to drink manufacturers, lol.
The elites are moving faster to control the masses because tech is enabling them to. They also know they have to keep the masses looking to blame anybody but the elites for any and all hardships that arise. Because they don’t want their estates overrun by angry mobs.
Another thing that needs to go viral:
Dump sports addiction. For one thing, likely 90% of sporting goods are made in chynah. Two, most sports are now woke. Adios
Not my video.

“Dump sports addiction. For one thing, likely 90% of sporting goods are made in chynah. Two, most sports are now woke. Adios”
I agree, this addiction is helping fuel the insanity. It proves to them that we will let them do anything they like without any repercussions. Addictions like this make us all look weak. I mean seriously... ESPN isn’t even about sports anymore, it is all brainwashing about wokeness and gays to the lower IQ.
Because the First Amendment only protects speech you agree with, right Brain?
Good for you! We are pretty much the same, we make our own lemonade or ice tea and take it with us. Or we can actually live on just plain water without dying.
“P.S. Many businesses offer discounts for cash, usually 3-5%.”
Maybe there, but not around here. Here they are all pushing their own chain credit cards trying to get folks addicted.
