One way communication is something to be concerned about; I'll call this: Dictates.
I can call it that until such time as the communication offers feedback. One must credit another with the power to apply a moral conscience 'all on one's own' otherwise one may tend to place oneself as the other's keeper.
The source above delivers a message and as far as I can tell that message is accurate. There is also an innuendo of sorts that suggest a need to do something. I also found some very specific and reasonable suggestions linked to that site. One of which manages to identify the stake that can kill the beast; I'll call the beast: Despotism. The beast must be feed or it will die and the beast feasts upon the people’s blood; I'll call that: Currency.
Unfortunately the suggested currency is problematic. A commodity currency will suffice to circulate through some of 'the people' but not all, at least not all at once, since the supply is severely limited; not enough blood to feed the whole people. The first to recognize and use that source of currency will use it up and, then, they may charge a high cost to anyone who has not managed to find a different source of currency. Division and conflict is practically inevitable. It is akin to placing a tourniquet on the arm as the main artery at the heart continues to hemorrhage. The left arm may continue to live longer. The right arm may also manage to secure its own currency; the left and right leg too. The reader either gets it or not; I guess.
Anyway I tried to post on the forum at that site and the web page froze up. I then registered on that forum and the web page froze up again. Then I sent a letter to the ‘contact’ link.
That letter was sent yesterday. It is now Sunday May, 21, 2006.
Here is the letter sent:
This is my initial vote of confidence:
In the absence of free justice there will be a public pressure, the application of common law, forced toward greater liberty. That end has one means and it must be peaceful first and only violent once all avenues of negotiated agreement have failed to become obvious and failed to be implemented. The time to be violent is not upon ’we the people’ yet and with a little common sense applied to right action the avoidance of the last resort can easily be gained.
Note: The last resort will be defensive in nature. You may call it Civil Disobedience if you so desire. I call it civil defense and it is the least moral option.
I would like to vote with a donation too. Before doing so it is prudent from my INDIVIDUAL perspective to gather some important feedback from the powers that be here on this welcome, voluntary, and free public access forum.
Question one:
What are the positive options?
Examples:
Watch the film.
Think about the content of the film.
Discuss the film.
Arrive at a common understanding concerning the film.
Suggest further positive options concerning what to do about the films subject i.e. Fascism.
In other words: Can a commonly understood mode of conduct be known that can further the cause of freedom and avoid Fascism?
I can wait for an answer however my donation here, if one is to see this clearly, is to offer more than a vote of confidence, more than a monetary transfer, and more than a few words aimed at clarifying the current situation.
If one thing is needed, obviously, then my contribution is to point out that all this has already happened in human history with a regularity that indicates that the patient ‘we the people’ are somewhat forgetful.
Common understanding of the problem can become more common and at some point the people will address the problem with a greater force than the problem itself and unfortunately that point of understanding turned into action often arrives too late; so late, in fact, that the solution becomes the problem and the action resembles an attempt to extinguish a fire with gasoline.
That metaphor is an apt description since it is theoretically possible to smother a fire with gasoline. One might want to find a better solution that is less risky and on that doesn’t end up with a smoldering pile of ashes surrounded by a pool of gasoline.
My contribution, if one can see it clearly, is a matter of coincidence. It just so happens that I’ve stumbled upon a few good sources that record what happened in history when ‘the people’ managed to avoid feeding the fire with ever greater volumes of fuel intimately arriving at that point in time when the fire is consuming too much and ‘the people’ finally figure out that the fire must be governed.
I will check the word count on this forum before adding my final ‘contributions’.
