Key Points of Wisdom
- [00:34:39] “Bad Jacketing is a term for planting doubt on the authenticity of an individual's bona fides or identity. An example would be creating suspicion through spreading false rumors, manufacturing evidence that falsely portrays someone in a community organization as an informant or a member of law enforcement.” (Context: Definition and history of fed jacketing)
- [00:36:02] “People need to start thinking like criminals. Because your existence is criminal.” (Context: On the risks of activism and surveillance)
- [01:33:08] “The more in denial the people are, the worse things are going to have to get before we can hit that rock bottom and wake up.” (Context: Reflection on societal change and denial)
- [01:34:50] “The people that are supposed to be protecting the constitution from those who would do it harm are instead protecting the people that revile the constitution from people like you.” (Context: On institutional trust and law enforcement)
- [01:36:01] “Any kind of movement like this would lose steam before it even got going unless things were so bad, so bad, that even the average person would be willing, willing to risk whatever opiates they're given by their globalist employers or by the state.” (Context: On the difficulty of organizing under surveillance)
- [01:37:09] “It has become so easy to provide like a baseline existence for everybody, you know, provide them with enough calories, entertainment, drugs. To where it's really not that big of a deal, people are easily satisfied.” (Context: On societal complacency)
