Improvise, Adapt, Overcome: Pt.2

What You Can Do

June 13, 2023 - Happy Birthday to someone special

It is a simple adage, a Marine slogan and the immortal words of Gunny Highway from the movie Heartbreak Ridge.  They are the perfect ideals to represent the spirit of America 2.0, and provide the necessary internal fuel to continue being a beacon.  Despite our imperfections, it is America’s inspiration to others, I would argue, that represents our greatest potential. 

Part 1 presented what I think are the limited choices we have in wresting America from the grip of the Ubermenschen, to return as the Land of the Free.  I laid out how we must first determine which side of history we are on.  Second, we must ignore everything and everyone inside the Beltway.  Washington DC is excommunicado, and we must drive all changes from the State level.  Third, we must begin a process of reconnecting the States to its military assets.  This is obviously tricky, and requires cooperation from the military, who may or may not be currently following a Continuity of Government (COG) option.  Fourth, we must prepare ourselves to endure a long struggle.  It won’t be easy, in fact it is bound to be painful.  We may have a different country when we are done. 

But what can you do, specifically?

Oh, there is a lot, Reader!  Identifying alternatives to how we will live and conduct ourselves, system by system.  If something is complex, simplify it.  If it is vulnerable, diversify it.  If it is dependent on government, repatriate it.  These are not as hard as they seem, although it may require you to reorganize the way you approach problems.  This is not ‘prepping’ advice, it is systems design advice.  I have some ideas on this that continue to evolve, and most of them we are actually doing.  We live in Philippines, so your results may vary.  But the principles here represent an essential way of thinking as we move forward into the unknown, which I hope freedom-seekers worldwide can take to heart.  Gunny Highway would approve. 

My working topics are here, comments welcome:

Spiritual preparation:  Determine how you will live, and who you will serve.  What will you be willing to sacrifice to cut the strings that the world has on you?  My advice is commit to a morning personal Bible study.  Immerse yourself in God’s plan, in prayer, in the Scriptures, and the grace that He offers through Christ.  Centering yourself in this way is a huge advantage in tackling the rest.   

Personal Debt:  to be free of their control you cannot have debt.  Even if you had to sell everything you own to get clear of the loans and cards, believe me when I say it is worth it.  It took a life crisis for me to do it, and I lost everything.  But you would be amazed how little we can survive on at Visayas Outpost.  “But my house”, “but my car”, no.  Friend, you cannot take that stuff with you in the end.

Reducing federal tax: the principle here is to starve the Beast.  Getting rid of personal debt is a good start, but there are other methods.  Starting a business, for example, to claim maximum expenses or losses.  Stop the pension and the IRA’s, those only tie you down to banks and good behavior in the future.  Put that money to work for you in other ways the Fed Gov cannot tax.  Work in a different country if you live near a border.  Buy only older vehicles or equipment that has already been amortized, etc.  Find a way to barter your services in lieu of payment.

Seek better jurisdiction:  This goes without saying.  Maybe it is in another state, maybe another country.  Join the wave of people voting with their feet, and you may improve your life by 100%.  Reward the places that will reward you back, and enjoy building up your new community.  Bonus: you can pick a place where the climate better suits your health or future plans.   

Diversify your presence:  An alternate passport if you can afford it.  Having a presence in more than one country, such as bank accounts, land, etc.  But this also can apply to states, especially once things start breaking down.  Having land in Texas when you are fleeing Maryland could be a good thing.  What if Texas will only admit land holders through their border?  You get the point.

Confuse your presence:  The more ‘digified’ everything becomes, the greater advantage in making your ID photos look purposefully different; or using middle names, initials, nicknames, etc.  Women might use maiden names, different hair style and color, and so on.  There are people who advocate eye patches, hats, beards -- all as ways to confuse facial recognition.  Un-align yourself from the Beast system.  Why make it easy for them?  

Unhook from utilities if you can:  Much of the world gets by just fine using propane, water wells, and minimal electricity.  We live in a tropical rainforest climate and only run AC in one room.  In colder climates you can burn wood, I’ve done it before and I would do it again.  If they forbid wood-burning where you live, then it is time to move.  Independence from interconnected systems is the key here. 

Stop leaking your data:  You know what I mean.  Do you need so many gadgets?  Are there more secure / encrypted methods you could use?  Can you just pay cash instead of PayPal?  Again, the principle here is not to make it easy for them.  My phone stays on charge and our cars don’t have GPS.  We do what we can to stay private and secure, not expecting 100%.  If you still keep your facial cameras uncovered, or own a Ring doorbell, then you really have a long way to go here.  It is never too late to start.

Live like your Grandfather:  My Grandfather could fix anything, could improvise, and lived in a house built before the age of permits.  He became a farmer when he was 60.  We will be hand-building our own house soon, but I recognize you can’t do that easily in the US.  The point is self-sufficiency.  Zoomers have the right idea with their ‘tiny house’ movement, although these are too small for me.  Live in whatever you can build or pay cash for.  Add on later.    

Do not support the current EV industry in any way:  It is bad for the Earth, bad politics, and one more future control mechanism that you don’t need.  Drive something fuel powered and learn to fix it yourself if needed.  Do not pay any tax or surcharges to the government or electric companies that are directed to EV’s.  Do not work for the EV companies.  As currently structured, this industry is a threat to freedom.  When the day comes they start penalizing electricity use or creating watt-hour restrictions for behavior, you won’t care.

Grow your own stuff:  Alternatively, have close connections who will barter it to you.  One neighbor with chickens, another with apple trees, and you have the vegetable garden.  The world still works this way outside the Western bubble, and we don’t have to worry about GMO’s and mRNA in the meat.  God made this planet downright abundant, so buy as little as you can from the MSG-mart.

Local manufacture:  It has to happen if we ever expect America 2.0 to be self-sufficient, so you may as well start now.  Machining, fabrication, textiles, small batch production.  There are backyard pick-and-place machines, plenty of options in 3D printers, etc.  For cottage industries the sky is the limit.  Get established before the crunch comes.  If anyone wants to send me a HAAS 5-axis I’d be most grateful.

Skillsets by community:  Take stock of what your community can provide itself, and work with the other proprietors to make a complete little business ecosystem.  Maybe you have the machine shop, another guy is electronics repair, a plumber, a baker, a candlestick maker, etc.  Don’t let the next Plandemic crisis grind your community to a halt.  Give thanks to God as you continue to fabricate hydraulic lines, or make furniture, or paint cars, etc.

Country doctors:  Hospital systems are corrupt and not patient-focused.  So why not go completely independent as a country doctor?  Your patients will love you.  You won’t get rich, and you may occasionally get paid in chickens.  Circumventing the healthcare system in this way could totally reform the way care is given and practiced.  Do we really need ‘health systems’, when all they can do is pump you full of pills and ‘vaccines’?  No thanks.

School Co-ops:  If every family contributed $1000, could 50 families start a neighborhood school?  Most (all?) states allow home-school groups, and I’d bet money there are ways that clever parents can get this done.  Hire a teacher you choose.  Have the professional parents volunteer one afternoon per week.  Convert someone’s garage or barn as the classroom space.  You absolutely MUST disconnect your kids from their primary indoctrination source, the School System, if you want to raise little independent thinkers.  

Farming Co-ops:  I don’t know how these work in the US.  But my vision here is to start a local co-op where people could trade chickens for vegetables, fish for motorcycle tires, eggs for purified water, etc.  It needs approval of the local village probably, so all the better if you have close contact with the people in charge of your community.  Something must be done when they start forcing digital transactions and limiting your usage to good behavior.  Be on the cutting edge, not scrambling when there are no options.

Friends, you never want to be at that point of not having options.  By improvising, adapting, and overcoming, you can avoid getting to that point.  The Borg continually creates scarcity conflicts to back you into a corner.  Every legislative decision and power play they make is designed to remove your choices, remove your independence, and remove your self-determination.  They are burning Canada, after practicing on California all these years.  You think your feelings of dread from those eerie photos of New York are by chance?  They know how to push your buttons. 

They operate on a propaganda level in the “cognitive domain” to manipulate your choices by just words and pictures.  The entire internet is now a kind of war-game for tracking their manipulation efforts on you, gauging exactly when and where to drop news items or create events to steer public opinion.  They are using so-called A.I. to generate online articles and content, and even to replace you at work.  We are used to the shenanigans, but it is getting exponentially worse.  Stay tuned for the Alien reveal (ayylmao).  They want you desperate enough to turn back to them... to Babylon... as the solution. 

They want to give you the Antichrist, and they want you to beg for him.

So to freedom-seekers worldwide, take these suggestions to heart and apply them to your own conditions.  Described above is the spirit of what it is to be American, but it is also what it means to be a free human being.  Improvise, adapt, and overcome.  Not magic tricks, not blind hope, but can-do optimism and determination.  Grit, according to my Grandfather.  I hope there are enough of you to make a difference, willing to go to the mat to restore freedoms to this world.  There are a lot of us out here, so do not be dismayed, Readers.  They want you isolated, but this is happening, and it is global.

Copy and share as much as you want...better yet, discuss it.  If we don’t utilize our God-given liberties to discuss facts and solutions with each other, we will still be complaining about these things decades from now, if the Lord delays that long.  Looked at another way, what if we had all acted accordingly 20 years ago?

In closing, a personal reflection.  As I type this I am sitting on the porch area of our tiny local church.   They are having a meeting, which is in Bisayan.  I only understand a few words of it, but will get the download later from my asawa, Mrs. Outpost.  But change starts at home, and I have made a personal commitment to learn this language if it kills me.  Every month we accomplish a little bit more toward our new way of living, and the language will be part of that.  If my Grandfather could become a farmer at 60, then I figure heck, I am younger than he was.

Live your life as if it is never too late, Readers.  That is my Visayas Outpost reflection for the day.  Improvise, adapt, and overcome.  Seek the Lord, and His righteousness.  Do what you were put on this Earth to do.  All the rest is fluff, and chasing after the wind. 

Peace be upon you in Christ, fellow humans,

Visayas Outpost
