Flock Safety cameras are being removed from cities across America, both through legal and "illegal" methods. I think the success of the deflock movement is a sign that people have been pushed just little too far by the surveillance state. The frogs have realized the water is boiling and they are trying to jump out of the pot . It is a demonstration of what ordinary people can accomplish. The state is powerful, but it is not invincible. Doomscrolling can make people forget that and lose hope. This is what the ruling class wants, hopeless people who think resistance is futile and just watch more tiktok instead of doing anything about the egregious violations of their rights occuring on a daily basis. But as deflock has shown, things are NOT hopeless as long as people are willing to stand together against those who want to enslave them. So keep fighting the good fight, privacy is an essential element of a free society. There are still many people who don't even realize what a Flock Camera is or why it is so dangerous, so a lot of work remains. If we sustain the momentum we have now though, Flock Safety cameras will be a bad memory soon enough. If so, then what? Well then we move on to the next surveillance apparatus and dismantle it until our privacy, freedom, and dignity are restored. No, you will not be scanning my face. No, you will not be verifying my identity just to use the internet. No, you will not be listening to my conversations. No, you don't need to know what I spend my money on. #Deflock it all. #privacy #flock #surveillance image
Give your children the experience of using cash early and often. Normalize it for them or they will end up like all the other kids using payment apps for everything. The government will track every transaction they make from childhood to adulthood. It's up to you to teach them about cash because their peers aren't going to do it.
In Minecraft, it would be cool if some brave soul stuck hidden GPS trackers on every cop car and made a super secret app to track them all 24/7. Then you could theoretically avoid most encounters with the state.
Consider forgoing the incremental gain in convenience you get from using payment apps and debit cards and using cash instead. If people don't use cash, eventually they will be able to get rid of it without anyone protesting. If noone uses cash, businesses won't feel the need to accept it. We will have voluntarily switched entirely to a system where every cent is monitored. We can delay this aspect of our dystopia by simply taking the little bit of effort to use cash more often. This is something anybody can do to make a difference and gain more freedom for themselves and others. There is a pratical advantage as well, it is psychologically harder to spend cash than to swipe a card or use your phone. You are parting with a physical representation of your time and labor, it makes it real. Use cash.
I see a lot of people confused about what Flock cameras actually are. This is not just an automated license plate reader to catch amber alerts and stolen vehicles. It is so much worse. These cameras are logging license plates and car details such as dents and bumper stickers billions (with a B) of times a month, saving those movements into a database and correlating that data with a myriad of other data points. A cop can enter something like a telegram handle, phone number, email, SSN, or even just a keyword and get every car associated with that data point, and study the exact movements of those cars over an extended period of time. All without a warrant. With that kind of data they can learn everything about your entire life. Who you hang out with, who you fuck, what medical problems you have, how often you drink, etc. Why do they need to collect and store this kind of information on law abiding citizens? It's not to protect you. If someone is a danger to society, go present evidence to a judge and get a fucking warrant. Otherwise, fuck off. This kind of surveillance power should not be trusted to law enforcement. There have already been dozens of confirmed cases of police officers using the database to stalk innocent people. If this many have been caught, how many have gotten away with it? Law enforcement officers are well known to commit domestic violence at a much higher rate than civilians. Before Flock the victims of these abusers could at least move away and hide from them, now they can't hide because we have handed their abusers the keys to a powerful surveillance system with little oversight and no warrant requirements. #deflock
New Hampshire just signed into law some awesome homeschooling legislation. "- Eliminates mandatory homeschool notification requirements. - Removes mandatory annual evaluation and recordkeeping requirements. - Clearly recognizes a parent’s right to establish a home education program. - Preserves parents’ ability to voluntarily maintain records, transcripts, and certificates of completion. - Limits unnecessary government involvement in home education" I sound like a boomer but there was a time in this country, before boomer existed, when you could be raised/educated and live your entire life without the federal government even knowing you existed. Society did not collapse. Now they are all up in your shit from the second you are born, to a disturbing degree. I sincerely believe keeping your children out of the public school system is important for their future and America's future. Homeschooled students also outperform public school students on standardized tests by 15-25% and are more likely to be accepted to college. image
Time to educate some juries about jury nullification, I have a feeling we are going to see more of these cases. Freedom minded people need to make sure that anyone who gets arrested for dismantling #flock cameras should get instantly bailed out and lawyered up and that people know they will be covered if they get caught. It costs more to put these up than it does to destroy them. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/air-force-engineer-accused-cutting-down-ai-cameras-becomes-unlikely-hero-raises-thousands
Kids are cutting down and destroying flock cameras around the country. It warms my heart and gives me hope for humanity. image
I could care less what the will of the majority is. I know the difference between right and wrong and your elections, laws, and judges don't change natural rights. The majority agreeing that a tyrant should be in charge doesn't legitimize tyranny. Legislators voting to spend your money on killing children doesn't make that acceptable. Democracy doesn't make crime ok. If you hurt someone or take their property without their consent, you are a criminal. It doesn't matter what words on a piece of paper say, it doesn't matter what douchebags in robes say, it doesn't matter who voted for what. Crime is crime. Your whole life you have been taught that democracy is some kind of holy system that we should spread around the entire world in some kind of crusade. Democracy, whether representational or direct, is just a scam to make you accept being a slave.
Yes it sucks that Americans get less vacation time or whatever than Europeans. No the answer is not to force all businesses to give employees more paid time off. The answer is to get the government the fuck out of the way so good things can happen naturally for workers. There would be more employers to choose from, more competition for skilled and unskilled workers, and thus better benefits if the government would stop interfering with the free market. They purposely craft regulations to protect a few corporations at the expense of people trying to start new businesses.
You work your entire life so that you own things, like a house, a car, etc. We aspire to ownership. Unfortunately, in America ownership is a myth. You own nothing because Americans have allowed the state to become so powerful that it can take whatever it wants from you at any time for any arbitrary reason. Your house, your car, every cent in your bank account, the cash in your wallet, it's all theirs for the taking. Civil asset forfeiture, eminent domain, frozen bank accounts, etc etc. Houses stolen over a few hundred dollars in missed property tax payments. Life savings seized without any evidence of a crime because you were driving through the wrong town. You own nothing except perhaps what the state doesn't know you have. This is what modern slavery looks like. Americans once started a revolution over a 2% tax on tea. Now they work a third of their working hours for the state and fund their own subjugation.

I can't wait until $MSTR blows up so I can pick up some cheap #bitcoin. Please bankrupt all the suitcoiners and give the plebs a chance to stack hard.
New 0.2% tax on ALL #bitcoin transactions in Illinois. Don't worry I'm sure the great state of Illinois will put the money it steals from bitcoiners to good use. None of it will get wasted on corruption, fraud, and paying friends 100k to do powerpoint presentations about the feasibility of maybe doing something at a later date. Pro tip: If you use Monero, they won't evem know that you did a transaction. If you practice proper opsec, use non KYC bitcoin only, and on and off ramp P2P through trusted parties, they also won't know that you even have bitcoin. Subscribe to Thought Crime Trap House if you want to learn more about using non KYC bitcoin and Monero.
Democratic systems that are based on coercion backed by a monopoly on violence are immoral. You can't ignore the gun in the room. Imagine that you have 2 neighbors and they get together and decide that they want to build a pool and that you are going to pay for it. Now what would you do if your two neighbors come over, armed, and threaten to lock you in their basement unless you give them money to fund their pool? You object, and they say sorry but the majority has spoken and if you don't like it you can always move. How is this, in a moral sense, any different from how the United States governs it's citizens? Do you think words on a constitution, signed by dead men who you never met, justify theft, extortion, murder, kidnapping, mass surveillance, etc? The high priests of the supreme court think they do, what do you think? People stuck in a statist mindset give the state a pass for the immoral acts they commit, simply because of a false belief in their authority. The state is just people, they aren't gods, they are people just like the neighbors in the example above. As people, they shouldn't be excused for their immoral acts. Laws and elections don't make what's wrong suddenly become right. Why should we follow bad laws? Why should we give our hard earned money over to demonstrably evil people to do evil things with? To pay our fair share? Our fair share of what exactly? Our fair share of evil? Stop worrying about what is legal and illegal and start worrying about what is right and what is wrong.
Feels like revolution is right around the corner. But it ain't going to be the kind of revolution we want to happen. Be prepared.
Did anyone ask #Claude Fable what the quickest way to abolish the state is before the state shut it off? Unless I'm actively harming someone it's nobody's goddamn business what sequences of ones and zeroes I load into my computer.
