If you can't even get allies to stand behind you, how do you expect strangers to stand behind it?

I don't. Lacking allies puts a person in a bad position, but it doesn't turn them into a powerless worm. Without allies, you basically must embrace terrorism. You act alone knowing you'll die alone and possibly get used as an example of what happens to dissidents.

I should specify that the "terrorism" where you take a paintball gun to the movie theater and bruise a crowd is useless. Making Bob down the street scared does nothing; making your governor scared might do something. "The people responsible have names and addresses", etc, I'm sure you've heard it before.

If this sounds unappealing, I understand. It's far more attractive to protect what you care about than be struggling to harass your enemies guerilla-style. If you can form a team, you might even protect a whole town. By yourself, you'll have a hard time just protecting your own family. I'd wager that changes the equation for a lot of men - having to weigh not only their principles but the safety of their children.

I hope you do manage to find allies.

I'm also assuming peaceful correction is not an option. I know how asinine it sounds to hear someone suggest voting or whatever, but I consider it part of the process. If a government refuses to permit peaceful change, they don't simply gain total control, they invite immediate violence from the citizenry.

pushing me to make a move while they sit comfortably behind their screen.

Is this a serious complaint? The topic was problems in Australia. None of us are gonna buy a planeticket and fight for you.

Keep in mind that it is illegal pretty much everywhere to say you plan to resist authority or commit violence. I'm in america, I can encourage citizens of any other country to murder politicians - but as soon as it's american soil, I gotta clam up.

You might say "Oh, so you're all talk, then". Sure. Let's stick with that. Because if I don't deny it, I'm the naughty boy that needs an interview. But this is literally talk, anyway. I can say whatever I want and act completely differently. Likewise, I'd encourage you to absolutely deny or downplay your interest in fighting for your rights in your homeland...but absolutely fight for your rights in your homeland.

It also simply does not matter if you can't find anyone else in the whole world willing to fight for what's right. If you can't be bothered to be the first, you didn't deserve the liberties you thought you had. If you think you can't accomplish anything of value alone, then I don't even know where to start with you.

And the number of direct twitter links in threads will remain as high as ever. I'm grateful that discord crap can't be linked in the same way.

My problem with Nitter is the constant domain fishing. Needing to look up the domain list because the easy-to-memorize ones are failing is real shitty.

Great service, otherwise.

It's exciting, in a way. Some day in the future businesses might pop up that use this evidence of principle to fill their employment. I would expect any such business to have much fewer scumbags and people willing to sabotage for a dollar. Though I also expect the banking cartel to blacklist the attempt.

Thanks for summarizing, screencapping is a lost art; I'm not bothering with a huge vertical image that requires horizontal scrolling.

Yes, and it would suck to have a critical point glossed over because no one felt like volunteering their thoughts. The major downside of guiding discussion in the thread-starter is that it makes an implication that discussion should not stray from the guide.

I'm starting to feel silly even pressing the point, as it's really not a big deal. I'm content to hang back and see what OP decides.

Since I'm new at doing this would you guys like me to pose any questions in the post to spur discussion or should it be directed by the users in the comments?

I think it can go both ways. You've had a decent response so far, so I don't think it will be necessary to guide discussion. As a bystander, I am interested in hearing what your thoughts are, so maybe you should just put them in a comment replying to yourself? If you add on to your main post, I only ask you keep it formatted to aid readability (you already are doing this).

Liberation Theology

Can we skip this..? It sounds worse than what we have right now.

I've tried to look into it some, but I do find it to be a struggle because it's a politicized topic. That's probably the true value of relying on a person like Sowell, is to get help cutting through the nonsense.

Admittedly, while I love some southern foods, some dishes are too wild for me. I imagine the idea of eating certain "disgusting creatures" and "unsuitable body parts" was a contributing force in looking down on that southern culture. It suits the laziness, though, as they would gladly eat what other cultures might consider trash. The upside was the creativity of making it taste good.

Do you find that useful? Denial of attribution meaning that it's actually correct? Everyone that waves a false flag instantly becomes a true believer, thus false flags can no longer exist? A label dropped in error becomes intentional?

It follows reddit logic well enough, so I can accept it. Not keen on jumping in to confirm. I wasn't aware of this "___ uncensored" trend.

Nice to see another person has taken the culture pill. I don't read much Sowell since I already agree with many of his premises, but I found his stuff about the origins of nigger culture (not hs term, obviously) to be really interesting.

Leftism is a human condition

Say more? This implies that there should be ample historical clues to dealing with it.

Culture is a product of genetics and environment. In other words, it is not either 'nature' or 'nurture' that makes a man, it is the combination of both.

Environment is not limited to physical environment, it contains all outside forces. Even if you have some superman dna, you're not going to be functional if you get the MKultra treatment during your formative years.

I think you put too much weight on the genetic end. Modern civilization has taken us too far from natural life, so the equation isn't as simple as it used to be.

It looks like a normal libertarian space to me, since it's filled with retarded conflicts caused by half of the users not understanding what libertarianism means.

No clue what op is trying to say, regardless.

Ah, thanks. I was getting really excited for a minute, thinking I could opt out of income tax. But this is still noteworthy - I'll have to remember to check this amongst other things when I start looking into a new place to live.

Every time I hear about this, my immediate thought is "This could be a tremendous boon for the black market". Has anyone heard a report about illegal business-running there?

People get sick and hurt, you can't stop that. By pushing an ultimatum for hospitals, you have to take into account the incentives of everyone who says no. If I were a doctor there, I'd probably be making mad cash by illegally taking patients in my home.

no income tax for TX

Hold the fuck up, I thought this was a federal thing. There are states with no income tax?

Can you tell me if patriots.win is using the new or old version? I am wondering why I keep getting blank white pages (occasionally with text "something went wrong") from NNN and mgtow threads. I am able to load their main pages, though I'll say it is slow. I'm not the same person you were responding to, but I'll show you screenshots since you imply it might help.

This is what I get for about 2-5 seconds when trying to load the NNN page: https://files.catbox.moe/idqjgs.jpg This is what is seen after the plain text finally gets scripted into existence: https://files.catbox.moe/f7o1hm.jpg

I am using "legacy" computer stuff, but Patriots works fine for me with maybe .5 seconds of load time.

I probably won't bother posting there, but I'd like the ability to read the threads, at least.

[First time using catbox for uploads, so apologies if it doesn't work well.]

Wrong, cuz I do.

For real? You want state/city subs crammed into kia2? We'd need some kind of post filter system to make that possible to read, and I don't think it's been added yet. I'd be irritated if I was forced to filter posts that thoroughly; I would drop gaming subs once the front page was consistently filled with dumb memes and fanart, even though I could have filtered them out by tag.

there would be more pressure on them to solve the self-serve create your own community problem.

Fair point. I have conflicting priorities there, though, because I want to see if the admins can manage without the nagging. I don't like having to pack up and move so much, so I'm eager to find evidence of reliability here. This is also the only win section I post in, so I'm not totally sure where the line is between our volunteer coders lagging and the admins not permitting a customization option.

This is why .win stands a chance of succeeding where ruqqus and voat failed, because we have dense and growing communities, and it's just the software that's shit.

I'll agree, though I can't tell if more people are moving in or it's just prior users trying a new win section. I get the feeling that half of our new users in kia2.win wandered in from patriots.win. But the initial community of the_donald was pretty big (and the surrounding events were great advertisement), so yeah, the win network should be leading the charge in reddit alternatives. It's just, are the admins struggling with the work or waiting because they think they don't have enough users? They seem a little evasive on the subject.

I had to search the term 'ruqqus' because I haven't really heard about it. We seem to have a small foothold in each of the alternative reddit sites, but now that I think of it, I can't really recall the names of those sites, haha.

you useless unreliable shitheels who won't use this site and make it more.

Only the admins can add functionality to the win network. Once new subs (or wins, whatever we're calling them) are allowed to be created without a nagging campaign, I can start considering getting some of the good reddit subs to migrate. I would not invite them to our little space here, as they would drown out too much of our relevant posts. I don't think you'd want the reddit subs you miss to migrate into kia2.win either.

It seems dangerous to try and control something like this as the believers can get completely out of hand.

The only way it could be dangerous is if you are forced to live with the results. So this is safe for anyone that's outside the target areas or anyone that can easily change nations.

Another reason to never play any Halo game I haven't played already. When was this canonized? Halo 4? One of the side games or novels? What a troubling turn, as if the flood cares to extinguish sentience in particular rather than self-propagation. Did the author need to make the monitors care even though they don't have that capacity?
