The Lines in the Sand

"Aleja Jacta Est". And it sucks. Because of course it does. I try to beat myself over the head with it, arguing that I've been too slow, but actually ... I'm in a surprisingly good mood. But how I look at the now and the future also kind of shifts. Sometimes I walk through the train-station thinking of what kinds of people I'm passing by. And sure it might all be vibes based, but sometimes I'm really optimistic, and other times just the very opposite.

As it turns out, reality is often enough more negative and more pessimistic than I'd like - and the optimism I have seems to ever only apply to a relatively small proportion of people. And I think - or so I feel - that it's held against me like I need to come up with a solution.
And I don't get it. But ... going down that road seems to be a dead end right now.


Overall I'm a bit confused. Different things go on in my mind, and depending on the subject matter, it's difficult to focus. For once I have a hard negative attitude towards a lot of stuff that's being said - and simply don't feel like I have the reach or tailwind to address any of it properly. It seems to me that politics these days is mostly a mix of superstition and some kind of religion. Buzzwords reign supreme - and what's hidden behind them is usually just ... whatever. There's a reality and then there's what everyone thinks, individually, what the reality should be.

But so I think that there's a way of piecing things together based on current conditions. You'd say that yea, CDU and AfD are evil ... and that's that. And based on that I'm like ... supposed to make an argument for those voters ... to not vote like that anymore like any of that shit is going to matter.


The real issue is the media and how they operate. In the most pessimistic viewing, nothing we ever do will succeed because every odd around every corner is seen as a super insurmountable obstacle - and so we fail before even making a first step.
You might then try to carefully ask left- or right-coded question to get a feel for how voters would react, and I don't even know why I should waste any amount of time thinking about that.

All I'm left with, eventually, is that vile feeling that I'm going to be very very upset once I actually learn of what's been going on all this time - and apparently it can't be helped.


I mean, I do have this feeling like I'm supposed to say something. Like I could make sense of all this or whatever. Meanwhile I'm worried that this is going to continue for a few years still ... wondering how bad things have to get before they're "bad enough".
And this way of thinking just doesn't work for me. I have meanwhile learned to LIVE, to exist in the NOW, to DO. And yea, sure - maybe it wasn't enough ... isn't enough ... bla ... whatever. I wonder why nobody else is doing anything. So ...

It's just us I guess

The thing is that hypotheticals aren't real. Maybe living in a fascist dicatorship feels different than actually living in a fascist dictatorship. Even if, by and large, the only difference is in the window dressing.
As the Bible says: "You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house." (Mat 5:14+15)

Like, I'm convinced that a lot of people vote the way they do because they genuinely believe it to be right. I used to vote based on feels. And while there is no city on the hill - people be stumbling through the dark while the wicked further pursue their vile business.


Like, we may focus on the "it all happened within an hour" part too much. It's like ... when lighting a fuse, it takes time for the thing to burn towards the part that makes boom. It should be clear enough though, in due time. Like, is there still doubt about me and what I have to share? Then, obviously, I still have some work to do. It's not mine to question what that entails, but I'm pretty sure that actual politics is like less than an actual concern. I think I may have to clarify a few things, run some defense against the ordinary BS while pumping out statements as if they were arrows, weapons and upgrades.

But at the end of the day, politics is just a side-show. I'm convinced that we're not going to win this by playing Politics. Think about preppers and everyone itching for Shit Hitting the Fan perhaps. They might intentionally vote for the worse possible thing ever - always - but are in that state of mind more than prepared for this fresh start. The idea is like ... Walking Dead, but skipping all the "Fall of Civilization" part.
To say: We don't care about politics. We have ideals that can be translated into political slang - and eventually a political movement should emerge just for the sake of it. But that isn't going to carry us. We are going to carry 'it'. Or push or pull. Whatever.

So, this is sort of a "vote with your heart" type of situation.
Anyhow - relying on the voting process ... it's kind of whack. I mean, apparently Kamala didn't loose - or wouldn't have lost had the elections been fair. Naturally I don't like to make that case because for the last four years we've insisted that the results are the results. So ... whatever. It doesn't matter.

And, if voters had perfect knowledge of what they voted for, we wouldn't have all those MAGA hats coming around like "Help Donald, you accidentally ruined my life! Please Fix!".
People get told "we are the fixing the economy party" - ... without the first clue of what that even means. We're told that our economies are broken - but by what measurement? We produce more and more - more than we need - and then we're surprised that we don't have enough resources for things that actually matter! "Surprised Pikachu!".


But I suppose that I'm a little bit mistaken myself. I mean, as initially mentioned, I'm a bit confused or back and forth on things. So, when thinking of Fascism, it's easy to get stuck on the "How bad is it going to get" scale. Here I think that generally not enough people are on board with all of the Nazi shit, like ... to pull off what Hitler did, there just aren't the numbers of fanatics! I believe! But when thinking "Democracy versus Capitalism" - things look a lot more dire. It's equally vile, but instead of violence we're dealing with ignorance.
In the end we probably won't deal with Concentration camps and Gas chambers, but just more and more unfair and fucked up economic conditions between the wealthy and the rest.
Like - what Trump is doing, hurting small business and all that - that is ultimately going to benefit the super wealthy that can then just swoop in and expand their already way too large footprint.

And dealing with that first means, that we'll have to conjure up economic plans and what not that we then somehow have to successfully drip-feed the population in hopes they'll understand ... but why? That's like bringing a knife to a gun-fight!

Better bring a Gundam to a Gun-Fight!
(A Gundam by definition is a War-Machine so powerful, a single one can turn the tide of war [Fantasy/Concept]. I recommend Iron Blooded Orphans, though some might find it either Childish or hard to stomach. If you have the time, Gundam Seed (it drags a little and is a little repetitive at times). Avoid Gundam Wing and for the feminine angle definitely, definitely watch Witch from Mercury.)


What I mean to say is, that the chances that we'll be allowed to just do our thing are good. Especially when the light isn't put under a bowl.

Uhm. Well. For once, the weight of our ideas is different when what we're talking about is just a hypothetical, versus when it is a reality. We shouldn't be cautiously polling our way forward - but confidently be what we are. I mean ... given that it's been two weeks and I haven't heard anything yet, I assume one of two things is the case. A) The Letters were disappeared or B) People are still trying to come to terms with things. I'll take the latter, so I assume there's enough to meet my optimistic expectations. Uhm ...


While puffing away the last few bits of weed I had while writing the Letter, I had a bit of a vision. Not a 'real real' vision - but an inspiration perhaps. Picturing a cross with some rays going off diagonally ... with a little bit of a rainbow sheen to it. A public announcement that "the Church has gone woke" - and some "starter pack" to go along with it.
How things proceed from there is obviously ... out of our hands. As the saying goes "Here goes nothing!". People may dismiss it, be skeptical about it - and my greatest worry would be that people may try to burry our message. So, things might just ... die down eventually ... unless the 'starter pack' packs enough of a punch to trigger enough "OMG it's real!" reactions. I would think that especially in the influencer sphere there's a chance for that to have enough of a ripple effect to totally shift the focus - at least on one side of the isle.
I'm thinking of people like Jimmy Snow ... an ex Mormon that does left leaning stuff. When it comes to Shad from Shadiversity ... well, I'm a bit more skeptical, but he'd also have some reach. I think he burned a lot of bridges with his right-wing pivot and has since accumulated a couple of hate-watchers, so, that can also translate into momentum.

That would just be close proximity stuff that I can think of.


All we need is enough to disrupt the currently held common perception of Church and Religion. In essence I expect to effectively consume the ENTIRETY of the faith related narrative - from Christian fundamentalists to Anti-Vaxxers and Flat Earthers. Dipshits like Jordan Petersson and Ben Shapiro and the rest of those Hypocrites wouldn't have enough grip to hold on to their upright viewers ... and from there the Internet should pretty much be ours.

On a different note, Asia is an important region. On the one side I'm half asian, so there's an interest by virtue of heritage for me. Even if I don't have a lot of real attachment, it's ... a concern of mine. I think Asia has a somewhat bad to mixed relationship with Christianity, but similar to everyone else a certain lack of perspective. On the one side we have the wealthy nations and on the other we have what also stretches into Africa. And 3rd world countries make the next important region. A lot of places are religiously fundamentalistic, which means ... I assume most of that is like a 'given' - but also ... or ... I mean, I think this is where politics starts to matter. My concern would be to boost their autonomy, or how to put it - help them get out of the clutches of Capitalistic servitude - such that this might actually provide the political weight we'd need to push towards a globally united whole.


Here I get to one of the first "visions" I had after that ominous day back in 2014 - which is that Africa may be difficult terrain. Here people are, I think, first of all the most anxious to connect with the fold, but also the most scared of how the geopolitical situation of their continent might try to prevent that.
Best case scanario would be that it all happens faster than I could realistically react to - but eventually we should have enough numbers to call it check mate.


And that's that.
