We were alive once. We were human beings sucking the marrow from life.

Then came the light box.

The light box supplements our dreary worlds with all of the things we used to do.

Why make an effort when it is so much easier to eat Pop Tarts & watch others do it?

First it was DIY, then homesteading followed by backpacking, camping and adventure. These pursuits develop the type of titanium-solid character that can only mature through experience. But life is tough and expensive so we watched instead.

Makeup channels and socials exploded and as a guy they didn’t leave an impact on me...until I saw men doing womens’ makeup tutorials. With 30 million views.

In two days. Overnight millionaires.

Then came muckbangs. Huge channels that are...wait for it: watching people eat.

Have we all become office carpeting?
•Unobtrusive
•Wall to wall, everywhere
•Utilitarian
•There but not ‘there”
•Over 50 shades of gray
•And trampled on

But with hard work we might, just might score a corner cubicle. With matching carpet.

But we have the light box. And the light box brings the entire world directly to us without risk, expense, or experience.

The soon to be 5g will bring us all the spangle imaginable and all it wants in return is compliance.

Mindless, compulsory compliance.

Be it TV or PC the blue light hypnotist demands one thing.

We are required, willingly or otherwise, to keep up our end of the debt balance.

If you are disinclined to believe me please look it up. And before you do harken back to the instructions given to us in our worst moment

of national despair by then President George W Bush (paraphrasing) “yes we just watched 2 100+ story towers disintegrate on top of our fellow Americans who plunged to their deaths but what we really need you-y’all-to do is go shopping.”

If you are of a more left persuasion, both Pelosi and DeBlasio chanted the exact same money-mantra at the outbreak of covid “go to Chinatown for dinner. Go uptown to see a movie”

Certainly none of us believe that these advisories just happen organically?

Reality and what the media tells us is reality are becoming less and less similar with each passing day.

And when those of us who notice these things sing out about it we are called conspiracy theorists and either marginalized or shown the door.

The dazzling blue lights command us to be the following since the early days of TV:
•compliant
•consumer
•humanists
•accepting of behavior that we know is life destroying
•debt slaves
•doubters of God. His ruler-ship. His magnificence. His authority.
•blind to miracles

I am writing this while standing in. freezing cold parking lot so please accept this as part one and there will be further thoughts on our mandatory necessity to either regain control of the light box, or ditch it all together.

Why this? Why now? Why do I care?

We should all heed this warning because whereas TV has lied to us surreptitiously for decades, the media masters are now so completely confident that our addiction to the light show is so omnipotent that they are outright preventing us from sharing globally relevant news—

news so critical our being able to make a national decision, a decision that’s nothing less than who will lead what remains of the free world and even more pressing: who will set policies in place that could alter who the United States of America is for generations to come.

We are at perhaps the biggest intersection of change that we have faced since the dust settled in New York, DC and Pennsylvania 19 years ago.

And all of us are unquestionably aware of two things:

1. The most powerful truth-tellers are slaughtered and eradicated before our eyes

2. The Jacks and Marks and Kamalas and Joes are all so confident that our light box addiction will take precedence over the anger and resentment we feel witnessing wicked-emboldened ambushing of people we greatly admired that they are no longer bothering to obfuscate it.

This is a good stoping point as it is lower 30’s & my fingers are going numb. Three things:
1. This was impromptu. It’s not the piece I wrote yesterday
2. I will continue this line of thinking
3. As always thank you for reading this

Prepare your hearts, friends. I smell battle
