Surrender...


The white flag of surrender.

Have you raised the white flag of surrender to government, media, and corporations [see photo]? What you say is not as important as what you do. It is your actions that will tell you if your mind, habits, and beliefs march under a white flag.


Everyone has a unique set of reasons to run up the white flag of surrender and those reasons are probably valid. The key reason to march under a white flag is FEAR. Fear of the bullies in government [wear a mask, get vaccinated, do as we say not as we do or else we will punish you], media [care only about clicks, likes, and grooming their groupies], and corporations [being "woke" both "inside and out" is the survival strategy in 2021]. It is clear that you have surrendered if you diligently obey your government, accept the group think of your chosen media, and seamlessly comply with the HR dictates at work.


Again, I understand that running up the white flag is not done in isolation but rather it is an action that you take in accord with your friends, colleagues, etc. Those who march under a white flag naturally seek further comfort by launching pitchfork attacks on all those who do not. So we have reached a point in most societies today where "us" [white flag folk] and "them" [those who have no white flag to protect them from all manner of abuse]. For me the most disappointing development in social evolution today is that so many young people fly the white flag proudly above their heads.


I do not fly a white flag but I do have one tucked away in my cupboard should I need it [when all is said and done I am just an old coward whose is disconnected from the raging warrior of his youth]. I rarely wear a mask even though I have had a double dose of a vaccine [from my observations less than one tenth of one percent of folks, here in Prague, comply with mask wearing mandates but that number seems to be increasing]. I will not have another vaccine shot if it is mandated and I am prepared for a much more restricted life after the elections here at the end of this year. So life today is good for me even though I do not fly a white flag.


At the global level the institutions which demand that you surrender are many but the greatest threat to your individual [non white flag] freedom comes from the UN and bodies of that ilk who have unconstrained power and reach. Over the next five years those who fly the white flag will either find the courage to fight for their freedom or submit to a robot-like life.
