Coming soon... if the public wants it... LocalAlternatives.net will extend the functionality of my LocalResistance.org website by adding another search tool that visitors can use to locate local merchants who offer important survival necessities without adhering to government edicts.
The database will list independent, local producers who: - reject the idea of CBDCs replacing cash - reject surveillance through digital IDs - reject the government's self-appointed authority, regulatory overreach and attacks on the personal, private lives of citizens - reject the drift towards a technological dictatorship that is being controlled by an international corporate-government syndicate
local producers who: - are committed to cooperative community development of alternative resources - will stand their ground on fundamental principles and natural rights - will always support cash and alternative currencies like gold & silver - will support purchasing brokers who assist those who have refused to be tagged with digital IDs
Registration for businesses and individual producers will be free of charge. Visitors and users of the site will not have to register and will remain anonymous. Users will be able to search major categories (food, energy, health, etc) or zoom in on sub-categories (meat, fish, vegetables, etc.) or specific sections (beef, pork, chicken, etc.)
The ultimate goal of this endeavour is to built an alternative city-within-a-city in every community in Canada of like-minded freedom-loving local residents. Once the idea spreads community-to-community trade will flourish.
Other important goals include developing an alternative, hour-based, debt-free currency that will replace profit and interest with labour-based premiums, and again, if the demand is there... establishing local, debt-free investment partnerships to finance new local business start-ups and the expansions of existing local businesses.
We need to withdraw our energies and support away from the current economic model and develop an alternative society where people matter more than money and where equal opportunity matters more than status or privilege.
No one is coming to save you. Politicians are too busy tracking public opinions and chasing votes while government bureaucrats conspire with corporate lobbyists and special interest groups. NGOs and news media organizations are too dependent on government subsidies to rock the boat and investigate the truth honestly. Most “freedom groups” have been castrated by infiltration, internal division and endless debate. Fear corrodes their commitment and turns “action” into letter writing and petitions. But the government isn’t listening and the corporations don’t care. They are too busy chasing profits and implementing their control agenda for a technocratic One World empire. Individual citizens are pretty much left on their own to defend themselves.
This website was created during the Covid lockdowns because I was suspicious of the mandates and the true intentions of the government's vaccine agenda. I felt isolated and alone when the lockdowns prevented me from socializing. I knew that we were being lied to and denied important medical information.
At first, it was difficult to get people interested in a new site that had no members. Initially people were suspicious that it might be a government trap set up to identify resistors. Nevertheless I persisted in trying to build up the membership because solutions to government overreach and people-friendly alternatives must begin locally.
As the threat of Covid eased people began to feel safe again and new registrations declined. But the totalitarian takeover of the world is accelerating and citizen resistance is more urgent now than ever before. So far over 1,000 people from 38 countries have signed up but there needs to be a whole lot more of us to make this idea work.
I believe that it is now more important than ever to resist our increasingly authoritarian state by building cooperative community alternatives for essential goods and services. The speed at which the encroachment of government into our private lives is increasing leaves no other possibilities. I'm not interested in letter writing, petitions or protests. I'm interested in securing essential resources and building an independent city-within-a-city, an alternative society where people matter more than money... where equal opportunity matters more than privilege and status. We need to show the world how an independent, cooperative community can take care of itself without government overreach or a speculative, debt-based economy. Our children and grandchildren won't stand a chance if we fail them now.
The suggestions below are simply a taste of what we can accomplish by brainstorming and working together locally. Please initiate contact with others in your area to organize resources and build local resistance.
Decontaminate Your Mind
- your mind has been poisoned by a continuous barrage of horror stories and terrifying images designed to disempower you and make you dependent on a government protection racket
- propaganda creates fear and a desire to avoid the truth and to seek shelter & diversions from “reality”
- entertainment and organized events provide the escape routes
- most people rely almost totally on others & external sources for information… tv, radio, movies, print & social media, internet videos, teachers, family & friends, flyers, ads, salesmen & marketing information
- public opinion can be shaped and controlled this way, “reality” can be defined
- conspiracy theories can be discredited, dissent can be criminalized
- moral obligations and mandatory behaviours can be imposed
- most people are passive, dependent and gullible, waiting for someone else to make life better
- most people blame problems on others rather than taking personal responsibility for their own actions
- most people prefer entertainment over investigative exploration but entertainment is an addiction that can destroy your motivation and prevent your personal fulfillment
- most people rely on second & third hand interpretations of news & info instead of living a real-time reality
- as a result they are saturated with fear, distrust, intolerance and hate
- they disengage and shut down spiritually and ignore their own talent & potential
- they seek distractions to escape from the violent “reality” conveyed to them by others
- it’s easier to bitch & complain and do nothing than it is to get proactive and defend yourself
- so people wallow in despair and remain isolated and powerless while the architects of evil continue on with their plans for our destruction
- turn off the emotional porn of the news media and the endless psychological assault of advertising & and the latest Hollywood fantasies
- real life is not a spectator sport, it’s an action event that you star in… don’t just watch other people’s lives on television, Youtube or Netflicks… take the lead role in a script of your own
- focus on positive change and seek out first-hand opportunities to take action and build solutions with decent people who really care
- shut off the t.v., the primary tool used to brainwash the public and sterilize personal creativity
- reclaim the time you waste following & debating the latest shocking news feeds and disempowering predictions on social media
- leave your cell phone in a drawer and rediscover face-to-face communications, which can’t be censored or hacked… real hugs are way more satisfying than emojis
The Instinct of Innocence
At birth, we arrive helpless and must depend on others for our survival. Immediately we inherit a family, a culture, a civilization. Though we are not yet a part of it, its influence on us is profound. Most of us have the good fortune to land in the arms of someone who cares very much about us and who is determined to make our life on Earth as wonderful as possible. But even these kind souls can do little more than share the skills and experiences that they have accumulated in a very human-made world. Their opportunities to develop and acquire knowledge, wisdom and power have been constrained by the family, culture and civilization that they inherited upon their arrival. What you can learn from others is a cage of mutual limitations.
Not to say that this shared knowledge is useless. Not at all, for all that makes humankind great is embodied in it ...but alas, all that makes us foolish and weak is too. Take money for instance. What an incredibly powerful human concept. Ponder for a moment the profound influence that money has on all of our lives. A lack of it can cause homelessness, starvation, disease ...wasting a human life completely. An abundance of it can create a material paradise on Earth ...though not necessarily enriching our life on any deeper level. Our daily need for money dictates more of our “reality” that any other single factor on Earth, yet it is merely an inherited human concept, a cornerstone in our cage of mutual limitations. If we earnestly tried, it is almost certain that we could devise a better system of fair exchange than our current money system. For most, however, the task is far too daunting, so instead we accept what we have inherited and simply “dig in” and try to make the best of it.
It may well be that the sheer volume of human achievements in knowledge, tools, procedures, principles, beliefs and values which we now inherit at birth and must absorb and adopt as we grow into adults, will be our undoing as a species. Perhaps so great a distance to travel from our natural infant state, our original innocence, is impossible to sustain. Perhaps some of the most important principles and lessons of our elders have been forgotten or abandoned so that what we now inherit and use to shape reality is no longer capable of sustaining our species.
The best hope for the survival of our species lies largely dormant within the individual. Inside most of us there still lives a part of that original innocence from our birth. It is the part of us that finds delight in a beautiful sunset, or that leads us to lower our defences and fall in love. It is the side of us that wants to do the right thing simply because it is the right thing to do. It takes courage to embrace it and all too often the world treats you like a sucker for even just talking about it. But if you persist and cultivate that frequency of innocence within, the image of a new and different world will slowly begin to emerge. Little knowledge of this world can be acquired from our dominant culture. No word of its existence is mentioned in the mainstream media. Few people will ever speak of it at all, yet it is the best hope for the future of our civilization.
Nurture it quietly and privately at first, and as its joy takes root in the core of your being it will begin to emanate of its own accord. Trust your instinct of innocence above all else. Let it be your teacher and guide. From the cage of our mutual limitations, the world appears to be a very ugly, dangerous, shallow place. Therefore, let the instinct of innocence raise you up on the shoulders of our ancestors to glimpse a world that is invisible to the cage dwellers ...a world of the future, a beautiful world worth living for. Think independently about what might be possible and discuss your ideas with your friends. Don’t let the emotional toxins of the cage dwellers define your reality. Life is sacred, dare to be free.
