Oh, I’m being passive too, I wasn’t calling you a coward. You’re in survivalist mode right now, not aggressor mode. You and I will suffer the consequences of staying too long in that mode eventually, just like the Germans did.
What does aggressor mode look like? Survivalist mode makes it sound like I'm in hiding, trying to survive and eke out a living. That's not me. I'm working on living like anyone else, but I'm not afraid to share my opinions.
I'm not starting a Youtube channel to be a public face for a movement, but not out of fear. That's just not my thing. We all contribute in different ways. I'm more of a practical builder type. I'd rather see how I can make something that will help conservatives or Christians defend themselves from the oppression that I see coming.
I'm not someone who wants to do political commentary and have fans. I only share stuff here or on patriots to see if others are seeing it too.
If you talk against the ideology in public, great. You’re doing more than most. I just figured you were in the majority of people being silent, instead of the minority.
I do, but I live in South Carolina. This stuff hasn't really hit here, so most people do not understand any of this. The most relatable thing I can do is talk about the evils of homosexuality. The other stuff gets me blank stares.
I talk to my friends and family about this ideology, but that’s the extent of it. It’s more important to me to keep people informed so they can make their own decisions, whether they disagree with me or not.
I talk to anyone about it, even at work sometimes. There are people from out of state like NY or Cali that are on board and left those states for that reason. With them it's like talking to a mirror image, they already get it but it's fun anyway. Some people from out of state are liberal and don't see a problem with it.
Surprisingly, I chat with these people about it (condemning it) and haven't had any trouble yet. One guy, upon finding out that I was Christian, tried to debate with me about it and eventually just accepted that he wasn't going to change my mind. He even came to understand what I was saying, or claimed to anyway.
People in the South, or at least in my area, are not really political. There is hardly any liberal opposition here, so there is not much to disagree with. Most people just try to work and get by, focusing on the practical stuff.
Great, nice to hear someplace in America hasn’t given up on the Christian roots!
I suppose aggressor mode would be the exact opposite of the SJWs, making a fuss about the evils they do and boycotting/mass-protesting their shenanigans. Modern Conservatives typically don’t like doing that, but it is an effective tactic, and LGBT won most of their battles using it. Infiltrating their organizations would be another good tactic, but I’ve experienced the progressive work environment, so I can understand why most don’t like this idea. It is torture listening to progressive ideology.
Again, you say most people are just trying to work and get by, which I get is the majority thought. The problem is the wokies who don’t have to worry about that/don’t care will use that to their advantage and take over while everybody else is trying to survive their daily lives. Survival mode didn’t save the majority of Germany from being overtaken by the Nazis and I don’t expect it’ll save America from this either.
I’m trying to find my way to build up/support people as well. I’m not a very good writer, but I have ideas that I think other people might enjoy, so I might put them out eventually.

I'm a hardcore Christian lol. I was an atheist before so returning back I went way into the deep end. IMO, the best thing we can do is become real Christians again and remind women what their role is. (to be silent and listen) The worst thing that happened to us was the destruction of our families and the rise of the matriarchy. I will get a lot of hate for this my whole life, but God is more important than what weak people think of me.

Oh yeah I want that. I'm all in favor. In fact I do not really understand why Christians do not exercise their power more. Part of me thinks they aren't real Christians, in that they support BLM, feminism, have female preachers, etc., but it's hard for me to tell because I don't go to church anymore. Most of the churches I've been to in the past are weak, totally gutted. They quote scripture but don't relate it to your daily life. I totally get why people are abandoning them.
I'm not certain, but I think it might be that men let women take over the church, and they made it all about fake emotional "love", and since they feel sorry for black people and refugees, they are totally onboard with the SJW crap.
Infiltrating their organizations would be another good tactic, but I’ve experienced the progressive work environment, so I can understand why most don’t like this idea. It is torture listening to progressive ideology.
I'm actually down with that. I'm working on getting a Comp Sci degree and I want to see if I can infiltrate one of the tech companies, if only to get a better understanding of what is going on behind the scenes, and then eventually branch out and start my own company.

Like I said, in SC we don't have this wokeness problem yet. Blacks don't have a chip on their shoulder here. So politics just doesn't really concern people. I live in an area where Trump won with an 18 point lead. I think where you are is probably different. It might change eventually but right now there is just not a battle mindset at all here. The only people who think that way seem to be people who fled other states for political/tax reasons.

Awesome. Definitely pursue your interest. I wasn't good at programming but I kept at it and now I feel differently. Challenge hones talent so it's better for you to find it difficult than easy, imo.
I think a lot of men and women have bought into that “love is love” nonsense, instead of the actual definition in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. That’s one of the reasons the world has so many problems nowadays.
My church actually just had a lesson on cancel culture a couple of weeks ago, and I thought it was very poignant, it all depends on where you go in my experience (I’d give you the link to the talk, but NO DOX). I’d say it’s important to remember God’s word doesn’t change and it’s important to take it in! I felt really bad these past months until I started reading the Bible again, wish I had done it sooner.
Be careful of getting into the tech companies since they will try to brainwash you to the best of their extent. A couple close friends of mine from the Internet shows me their training and it’s all propaganda nonsense. Be strong and I wish you luck regardless of what you decide to do!
It is definitely a “hell on Earth” situation where I live, but I try to make the best of it. :). I would never wish this kind of ideology on anyone else, it’s the opposite of what it claims to be.
Thanks for the encouragement on the writing (I tried programming but failed too much). I’ve written some concepts down but actually writing and tuning your story is difficult and that’s been scaring me off. I just need to jump in and write garbage (so I can improve it bit-by-bit).
I know we got into argument territory but I’m glad neither of us backed down and had a decent exchange. Reminds me of the good old Internet days.

Yeah that would be rare, in my estimation. Most of them stay far from any controversy to keep the tithes coming in. I will keep my eyes peeled though. I'm not anti-church or anything like that, and we have plenty of churches down here.

What's amazing to me is how different your understanding can be when you read it on your own. For example, I was always taught (grew up Catholic) that Adam and Eve both were cursed from eating the fruit of the forbidden tree. Imagine my surprise when I read Genesis and saw that God blamed Eve for eating the fruit, but Adam for listening to the woman!
You will never hear that in church and I now understand why. Women would be pissed lol.

Thank you, but I'm far passed that. Tech is just an interest of mine. God is everything. I would drop it the minute I knew that he wanted me to do something else. I'm more curious as to whether I'll be subtle or outspoken. I do believe there is a time to act and a time to wait and listen. You never know what God's plan is until he reveals it.

That's what I figured. I honestly have no idea what that is like. The only places I've been for any significant amount of time have been the Southern US and Poland, both fairly conservative and Christian areas. I'd love the experience just to see what you guys are going through on the other side of things.
I know we got into argument territory but I’m glad neither of us backed down and had a decent exchange. Reminds me of the good old Internet days.
Most people are angry and unforgiving these days. I don't hold anything against anyone, and I don't mind being challenged. God bless you man, I enjoyed this too. :)
