Atlas Shrugged

I read Sanus Disputandum and had intended to write this sooner. Then Roth wrote Folkishness…the Answer first which put me even further behind.

For people who have been around this site and NC Renegade, this preface will be old news. I keep to myself, listen to the Lord’s directions and thank Him for blessing my life. I do not pray too much because the guidance that I am given keeps me busy enough. That is why I keep to myself: it eliminates distractions and negativity. My “interaction” is this site and I will admit it is a means to express my frustration. What I really would like to say is what Wes states: why do people not understand our true situation and stand up?

At least people are waking up but they are not standing up. A moral people would never accept the actions of Trump and Israel. Should I discuss the evil government, the Epstein files, economic collapse or any of a myriad of other repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States?

What would be the point? The people may be waking up but they will not be swayed to action. Distractions and propaganda are still effective and evil still is in control. At this point in time, what is the course of action to provide a viable future?

Let’s define the goals for a viable future:

  1. Liberty
  2. Freedom
  3. Security
  4. Justice
  5. Faith

Let me point out that there are more goals to consider but every one of them have the same solution: the removal of the existing government. Some people would say that our Constitution is the best form of government every realized and implemented. I do not disagree; I am stating that the Constitutional Republic envisioned by our founding fathers is dead and buried. And we can accept it and chart a new path or we can continue to hope for another Road to Serfdom strongman who will continue to destroy what is left of our nation.

I did not vote in 2016 or 2020 as I understood that we cannot vote our way out of this. I did vote for Trump in 2024 because I saw some glimmer of hope after four terms of Obamanation. We can argue whether Trump has been replaced, was always part of the evil or went mad but in the end, it will not matter. Pending a military coup, our nation’s course is set and we are looking at a world war where billions may die to support the New World Order, Globalization or Multipolarity. Pick whatever label you like, the result will be dystopic.

So what can one lowly man do? I can do what God directs me to do. I do not talk too much about my foundations for the future for operational security. I will again state that life skills, no debt, supplies and medicines should be everyone’s main focus. Tools will make a big difference. My biggest tool that is used several times a week is an excavator. Followed by my tractor, wood shop and log splitter.

Again, God has provided for me in order to help people in the future. When is that future starting? Right now. There have been several signs pointing to the role of the community center that I have taken to be the beginning of the end. I look at the “end” as the end of evil and the beginning of a new chance at redemption.

Another sign has been the third reading of Atlas Shrugged. I have had it out for over a year but started reading it a month ago. I did not read it as I normally read a book. I should have been done by now instead of halfway through. I understand that the world events are tied to the timeframe of the novel. This reading also hits home more than previous readings: it is even more applicable to current events at this time.

So back to Hammers Thor and Roth. We have to understand and implement public virtue. How did we lose this founding principle? Our churches have failed the people and God: the overwhelming majority sold out for thirty pieces of non-profit, government controlled silver. This also caused the loss of morality since it was the duty of the church to produce moral citizens and by extension moral politicians and civil servants. Imagine Trump not putting his hand on the Bible when he was sworn in as President in 2025.

But the most insidious weapon used upon us was the implementation of diversity. This one tactic destroyed our unity, culture and future. Roth is correct: we have to return to our folkish roots in order to restore our unity. Because without unity, we lose. And I would like to put forth that Trump is leading this division across the world. If you disagree, please add a comment detailing any of his actions that are uniting the country or the world.

  1. Thanks for this post, couldn’t agree more. I remember how I loved history as a kid and still do as a adult and as i progressed thru multiple layers of what used to be our education system we usually had multiple writings on the Roman Empire. I never was able to understand and neither could my teachers and professors explain to me how the Romans a highly educated people allowed that great empire to collapse like it did.
    Now that we are actually living through it in almost the exact same progression and also just like the last time when the Jews were responsible for the death of Jesus, They have perverted our current so called Christian religions to help them destroy a entire country that was a burning light on a hill for freedom.
    I now fully understand and wonder if the Romans were asking and saying the same things we are now?
    God help us all, It was ALLOWED to Happen.

  2. Why do people not understand our true situation and stand up? I am trying to figure this out myself. When is the right time to stand up? What does it mean to stand up? Does standing up require violence? Will standing up destroy my family, neighbors or friends? I have thought about this a lot.

    I have stated before on this blog I will stand up. So what does that mean for me? Everyone’s situation is different. There is grave risk in taking some stands. Others are easier. I will stand up for the hungry, medically compromised, the dying, and abused. I will do my best to help such people get relief as quickly as possible. I will stand up for animals and of course children. I will stand up TO THE GOVERNMENT if I am abused or my freedom is compromised. I will refuse the bioweapon, if there is one. Etc.

    I will apply the virtues written in the Bible to the best of my ability. This is not an easy one. Living in the AI dragnet they are surrounding us with gets me angry. Up to this point in time I refuse AI medical charts, refuse apps added to my phone. I refuse to vote. The last time I voted was in 2016. Big mistake. I demand to speak to someone when I call a business. I do not converse with AI assistants. I do not use any smart gadgets. I still call the NC General Assembly but its becoming a waste of time. Our system of government is rapidly disintegrating.

    I am adjusting my reactions to surveillance and corporate/government demands as situations arise. It’s going to get a lot tougher. I am holding on to the Old America I knew for as long as I can. If I am threatened to do something against the will of God by the government, I will not do it. If they decide to kill me, my character stood by my name.

    It’s vital that we take care of our health. Fresh air, sunshine, good clean food, an orderly home environment, and exercise will help create stability in our lives. We must remain emotionally stable under all circumstances. I do not have a lot of money, but I do have a lot of spirit.

    This blog helps me with all the above. I hope I can be of help to each one of you. You all inspire me to be a better person. I do not attend church anymore, because the churches have been infiltrated. I do not attend any social events, go on vacation, or things I used to do. What’s coming requires my full attention.

    1. I do believe more and more people are fighting the system and waking up, whether it be quietly or not (vocal in public). Many are using cash only, buying local, planting gardens, learning first aid, etc.

      My take on this is that many folks are just not strong enough to push back. All you need for proof is that it is estimated that 65-75% of the country got the covid bioweapon. It absolutely breaks me that this happened in the United States. Critical thinking and asking questions should have been ruling the day but…

      If and when the day comes when violence comes to my town, I and many of my neighbors will be ready. I was told quite a few years ago that I needed to “harden my heart” for what’s coming. I pray that day does not come. But you are so right, what’s coming requires my and our full attention.

  3. Most people aren’t standing up because life is still too “good”. Most are still addicted to ease and comfort.

    Until life becomes hard, a daily fight for survival, until they lose the ease and comfort, can no longer afford ease and comfort, then, maybe, they’ll fight back.

    As a Christian I am called to a life of warfare. Spiritual warfare and war against the lusts of the flesh.

    As an Orthodox Christian tonight is the end of the Lenten Great Fast. The Great Fast is 40 days long is a fast from all meat, fish, eggs, and dairy. It is also a period of repentance and prayer. The period of Lent forces me to reflect on just how sinful I am and on how addicted I am to ease and comfort.

    And its sobering and humbling.

  4. So, tell us. Just exactly what is it that Trump and Israel are doing that is so terrible. What I see is a kinetic action being waged against muslim terrorists…but I repeat myself. A demographic whose ONLY stated reason to exist is to KILL ALL NON-MUSLIMS. A group who cannot and WILL NOT willingly coexist with ANY other group or demographic. A demographic that is openly and diligently seeking to acquire nuclear weapons…weapons they have OPENLY stated they intend to use against the US and Israel…then the rest of the west. Just what is so terrible about KILLING THEM!

    1. Iran is 32-40% Shia (Shiite). The rest practice Zoroastrianism, Christianity and Judaism are also practiced in Iran. If you were correct, then Iranians need to kill at least 60% of their own people. Your logic is flawed.
      Let’s take a different approach. We should agree with the approach of Trump and Israel against Iran because Iran is a terrorist nation. Let’s start with the USS Liberty attack as the basis for this theory.

      1. First, what I’m about to say is not relevant to the discussion. 80% of Iranians rejected the Islamic Republic in Iran in 2023, and preferred a democratic form of government- www dot iranintl.com/en/202302036145. The reason it’s not relevant is it’s not the duty of the United States to change the government of Iran because of this information.

        What IS relevant is that same regime has consistently threatened destruction to the United States (they have said this), and has killed Americans (they have done this). It IS relevant if the United States has accurate intel that the same regime was working diligently to acquire and deploy nuclear weapons (and the United States DOES have intelligence that does not rely on lying Israel). This cannot be tolerated. Why? Like I said, they have ACTIVELY threatened the destruction of the United States, and nuclear weapons are a very effective means to that end. You have to smash the head of the thug who has threatened your life WHILE he’s sharpening his knife, not AFTER it’s sharp and he’s swinging it at your face. Or, you have to shoot someone who is pointing a gun at you BEFORE they pull the trigger. I do NOT subscribe to the theory of DO NOT FIRE UNLESS FIRED UPON. That’s not me. And please, if anyone suggests that Iran said they did not have plans to build nuclear weapons, or that they were for defensive purposes only, try to remember that those same leaders are MUSLIMS, and MUSLIMS LIE.

        Trump did not wage war on Persians. He waged war on the Iranian regime. That same regime the Persians wholeheartedly reject. I believe our military has worked extremely hard to avoid civilian injury and death in this action. Has it been perfect? No. The school. Very unfortunate, but ultimately their blood is every bit as much on the hands of the people who threatened our destruction.

        Your comment about the USS Liberty is dead on. No argument there. Personally, (and not relevant to this conversation again) I would BY FAR prefer a friendship with NON-MUSLIM Persians over Jews. Not even close. In my former life I had business interactions with both. The Persians were fair, and trustworthy… You can complete the second part of that thought on your own.

        I guess it all depends on whether you believe President Trump did this because of Israel. Was Israel a factor? Sure. Was it THE factor? I don’t believe so.

        1. I see a lot of similarities between the people of Iran and the United States. We both suffer under an evil government.
          No one asks why we are interfering in their government. No one asks what Iran’s government would be without US interference. It seems the argument for wiping out a civilization is because they resent our actions in their country. What would our founding fathers do today?

          1. Indeed. We are very much like the Persians.

            Our founding fathers would revolt against OUR government today.

      2. “Iran is 32-40% Shia (Shiite). The rest practice Zoroastrianism,”

        Is there a source for this claim?

        1. I posted that information earlier. Source was Grok. 2/3 of mosques have closed in Iran due to lack of attendance.

          1. What was Grok’s source?

  5. So, a couple of thoughts. (Now reading this after writing it, maybe more than a few… apologies). President Trump did not implement diversity… that has been happening to us since the 1960s (I am in no way insinuating you suggested otherwise BTW). If anything, President Trump eliminating illegal immigration (which should have never happened in the first place) has at least brought us back from the brink, so I believe it’s a start toward reducing the poison of forced diversity. If he eliminates H1B visas, that would be a tremendous additional step. H1B visas are a kick in the head to the idea of maintaining unity in America. We cannot unify with Islam, Hinduism, and Communism. That is not diversity… that is an extermination of who we are as Americans. Islam especially is a scourge on our country and will eventually require extreme force without mercy to drive it out of our CHRISTIAN nation. We can barely unify with Judaism, and that is fake and unnatural, and, if I’m being honest, a perversion. Yes, we absolutely must return to our folkish roots not only to restore our unity, but to survive.

    We cannot undo the crime against our race committed by the original slave owners of the 17th to the 19th century, and that “diversity” has and continues to contribute to hideous racial crimes against us to this day. We can only hope to deprogram the vile lies that have been indoctrinated into the progeny of former slaves. As far as Trump leading division across the world, I submit that the citizens of Ireland and France are becoming bolder in part because of inspiration from President Trump – they want leaders that don’t mince words and are willing to demonstrate that when they hit you, you hit them back twice as hard.

    Having said that, IMHO division across the world, if it is because of Trump, is a feature, not a bug. His administration is the first to stand up to Europe, Russia, China, Iran, and even (freaking finally) Israel. We don’t need unity with any of them. We need two things… the strength to destroy them if necessary for our own survival, and the wisdom to stay out of their business if it does not directly affect us. The standard by which we measure that effect must be extremely high. Lastly, as far as President Trump dividing this country, I suspect something else is at play, like foreign actors or communists within our own border. I have no evidence except what I see and hear, and my interpretation is worth exactly nothing to anyone except me.

    I suspect that the animosity and vitriol toward President Trump that some are expressing is a product of the fact that he does not appear to be meeting the most important promises he made to us, like releasing UNREDACTED the remaining Epstein files, and seeing to the arrests of the deep state and the monsters who persecuted J6rs. Then these failures are amplified across the news and social media by state actors like China and communists within our own country pretending to be MAGA. Classic Divide and Conquer.

    Question: If someone we have come to trust, like Alex Jones, says something about President Trump that enrages us, are we truly being informed, or are we being manipulated? Isn’t it interesting that Alex Jones used to say outrageous things that were often just stupid, then he seemed to calm down and become both more reasonable AND more accurate, and now suddenly he turns on President Trump like a viper because of something he said that we all know to be entirely within President Trump’s character? Does anyone ACTUALLY believe that President Trump was going to completely destroy the Persian civilization? Really? Who then is the real Alex Jones?

    Am I mad at some of the things President Trump has done (or failed to do)? Yup. Glyphosate. Endorsing Lindsey Graham (how embarrassing). Lack of arrests. Unwarranted support for Israel (which is changing, BTW). Pam Bondi. Supporting the vaccine (I will reiterate that he was against mandating it, unlike Biden, or Trump’s opponent Kamala). What I’m NOT mad at him about is destroying Iran’s military and killing the Ayatollah. I’m not mad at him for excoriating Tucker, MTG et al. I’m not mad at him about eliminating so many federal regulations. I’m not mad at him for preventing a war between India and Pakistan. What do I want him to do now? I want him to recognize the absolute danger to our world that unrestricted AI growth is presenting, and I happen to be a big fan of AI. I want him to get back to American issues now that we’re mostly (hopefully) done in the Middle East. I want him to stop supporting Rinos, and I want him to keep his promise about reducing the debt and drastically reducing federal spending. And I want him to get the Muslims TF out of our country, but that might be asking too much.

    I will not claim that I am unaffected by what I read and hear, and I think this is nearly universal. This brings me to my final point, and that is what Roth said in his post “So Much is Simply TOO MUCH” is right on the money… >>>”I hardly even look at social media anymore… So much of it seems somehow wrong to me. There’s too much shouting, too much condemnation, too blatant advertising, too careless devaluation… it’s either a glittering world, a world of drama, or a world of sales.”<<<

    It's overload. Things break and sometimes catch on fire when they are overloaded.
