I live here in the Gallatin Valley as a relatively new resident on Socialist Insecurity, sharing living expenses with my brother, also on Socialist Insecurity, but a considerably longer term resident of both the Valley and Montana. This is my third time living in Montana. The first two occurred in Dillon, where our father served as a Professor of Education at Western and I met and married my husband, and where later, my husband and I ran Montana Hi-Tech, a small computer and electronics store. I am here in the Valley following the death of my husband in 2017 and the realization that I could no longer afford to live in Colorado Springs in 2019.
I miss Pikes Peak and the friends I made over the 25 years we lived in the Springs—but I don’t miss Colorado politics in the slightest. Sadly, although it’s been easier to get to know Gov. Gianforte, Sen. Daines, Reps. Rosendale and Zinke, and Else Arntzen, Austin Knutsen, and others here, I see the same busybodies (especially on the liberal side of the political spectrum) here as I’ve seen everywhere else I ever lived. That would include the Tri-Cities in Washington, the Downriver area of Detroit, Michigan, and Greeley, Colorado, for those who care.
I have just come through a very nasty case of Covid—enough different from the version I experienced 4 years ago (before it was “officially” recognized)—that my immune system didn’t recognize it early enough to knock it aside before it tried quite seriously to kill me. Fortunately, my vitamin/mineral regimen and ibuprofen kept it from doing so.
However, it has left me absolutely furious with all those directly and indirectly responsible for the gain-of-function research that has created Covid 19 as part one of a bioweapon intended to kill off 99/100ths of the human population. Part two is the mRNA vaccines that were never intended to boost natural immunity.
This isn’t the place for details. This is where I scold everyone who chose as toddlers to hate themselves and Reality as a Whole because the latter made no sense, and the former felt abandoned by everyone around them. You people can run, but you can’t hide from me because I was one of you, and I know exactly how and why you feel, think, and act the way you do.
There is only one choice, made with every thought, word, and deed by each of us. Accept Reality as a Whole and our places in It, whether we have any understanding of either or not. Or reject Reality as a Whole and our places in It because we’d rather HATE being who and what each of us IS than try to learn and grow within It.
Those who choose as best we can to accept Reality as a Whole, and our places in It KNOW at some level deep inside that we ARE exactly who each of us is supposed to be, doing exactly what each of us is supposed to do at any given moment. We understand that each of us is a unique and wonderful Point of View of Reality as a whole, and we treat each other with the respect with which we would like to be treated. We walk on the Bright Side of the Golden Rule. And not only do we treat each other with respect, we treat our environment with respect—even though it may take time to learn how to do so best, given our youth as a species.
Those who choose to HATE Reality as a Whole because as toddlers we didn’t get enough comfort, healing, and guidance from our parents, other relatives, peers, and so on, now see Reality as a Whole, as represented by everyone around us, as absolutely EVIL because It has never given us what we want (and what that is, only we can define—but should be obvious—control), so it must be seen as THE ENEMY, along with everyone who tries now to treat us with respect.
For those who haven’t done so, read The Communist Manifesto, Mein Kampf, and Rules for Radicals. These were all written by toddlers in grownup bodies, and they are responsible in their various ways for the deaths of HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of people over the last 2 centuries to war, famine, disease, and death—the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Too many of their living disciples now want desperately to be responsible for the deaths of all 8 billion of us “useless eaters.”
I would love to fall into the trap of telling all the toddlers in grownup bodies what they MUST believe for the saving of their souls—just like they’re trying to do to me and everyone else. But it isn’t my place to tell ANYONE what they MUST believe for the saving of their souls—only lay out the choice facing each of us and remind all of us that as Points of View for Reality as a Whole (however we choose to Name It) each of us IS responsible for the consequences of the choices we make and the actions rising out of them.
We need to remove our noses (and the beams in our eyes) from everyone else’s business (and the specks we see in their eyes), and we need to learn how to accept and work with each other as Points of View of EQUAL value to Reality as a Whole. We need to abandon the Tower of Power paradigm that has killed so many people over the millennia for no good reason so we can learn how to work with each other as knots of equal value within the Net of the Fisherman paradigm that has always been there.
