One of the primary rules of propaganda (or psychological warfare), one of the most important tenets when utilizing lies as weapons, is to never let your target speak for himself if you can help it. Silence him, drown him out, lie so loudly that his truth cannot be heard over your constant pounding drum of disinformation. Men and governments that deceive fear one thing above all others; that those who tell the truth will gain a venue, and a voice. The Liberty Movement as a whole is steadily finding its voice, and the means to finally be heard, which is why the establishment has moved to debase us in the eyes of an unsuspecting populace.

In order to paint an innocent group as monstrous, one must first ‘dehumanize’ them.
It is quite common for governments (especially those that have adopted criminality as policy) to tell a story, a children’s fairytale in which those that oppose centralization and control are not freedom fighters, but dastardly villains bent on mayhem, destruction, and the kidnapping of fair maidens. In their version of events, our dissent creates the “need” for more control, and more control provokes us to dissent further, triggering a terrible cycle of enveloping tyranny which, according to those in power, is “necessary.” In this surreal story, we the people are to blame for our own subjugation because, ironically, we refused to be subjugated. Defiance of that which is unjust becomes the excuse governments use to initiate more injustice. Again, only in a carefully constructed fantasy world, only in ‘Wonderland,’ could this way of thinking be presented as “rational.”

The circular process of fascism begins when opposition has been suppressed to the point that the establishment can fashion their fairytale in any way they choose. It begins when the stewards of truth are no longer human beings, but characterizations in the minds of the masses; complete with menacing mustaches and black cloaks. It begins when who we are as a movement is overshadowed by engineered misconceptions.

To combat the fairytale version of our identity, we must speak openly, not just to document the subversive activities of elitists, but to document ourselves; what each of us believes, what we fear, what we care for, what at our deepest core drives us to fight back. We must never allow the world to forget that we are just like them, and that their concerns on where we are heading as a species are probably similar to our own. At bottom, regardless of cultural differences and political nuances, most people seek to be free. In this way we are all connected. Our battle, is a shared one.

To this end, I am calling on all those in the Liberty Movement to write at least one letter, a letter to the rest of the world outlining your personal feelings on sovereignty, and globalism. How these clashing ideals have affected you, your family, and your friends. Where do you see society heading? What kind of world do you struggle for? What does liberty mean to you? Imagine you are explaining these issues to a friend who knows little about the movement, or to an entire nation of people you want to expose to a different perspective.

It doesn’t matter if you are a fantastic writer or not. If you have a lot to say, or just a little. Take a few hours out of one day and write something. Speak with sincerity. Start your own blog, post it in your favorite forums, or send it to our contact email here at Neithercorp.us, and we will publish our selections. Just put the words “Letters From The Liberty Movement” in the subject, along with your name, or pen name.

Don’t let the establishment speak for you, or I guarantee, no one will ever know who you truly are.

To start things off, I have written my own personal letter below…

…

To: The World
From: Giordano Bruno

Since I was a child, like many people I suppose, I have had a nagging sense of imbalance in the environment around me; a feeling that something was ‘out of sync’, something fundamental that affected the whole of man. We were not what we could be. Somewhere along the way, we had lost sight of our true potential, or our sight had been purposely obscured by others. I wondered if the problem was my unwillingness to orient myself to general circumstances. Perhaps my ideals and principles were stifling my ability to adapt to the society I was thrust into; a society I believed could not be changed. Intuitively, all I knew was, life was not meant to be lived the way we were living it; like hive-minded bugs in a great compost heap.

I was the wrong man, in the wrong place, at the wrong time…

I grew up during the Reagan/Bush era, so obviously when I turned eighteen I opted to become a Democrat. I believed at my very roots that the Republicans were Diablo incarnate, and that once the Democrats finally took the government back, all would be well on planet Earth. It wasn’t until the Bush/Kerry election run at the onset of the second Iraq War that I finally realized how exactly alike the two parties were. Sure, their rhetoric was different, but when it came down to actions, when it came down to policy, the political left and right were bosom buddies, even partners when legislation involving the degradation of civil liberties and the expansion of government was concerned. The choice of the “lesser of two evils” was an illusion. There was no “lesser.” There was no choice. Regardless of the administration in power, America was being coaxed closer and closer towards a globalist framework, towards a purely collectivist mentality, towards a feudalistic economy.

The lie could not possibly stand forever. People would respond, and that response has finally arrived in the form of the Liberty Movement, a movement I now support.

Defining what the Liberty Movement is to the average person can sometimes be difficult, simply because the Liberty Movement comprises so many different groups with highly specific goals. Libertarians, Independents, disenchanted Republicans and Democrats, the Anti-Income Tax Movement, the Anti-Federal Reserve Movement, Anti-Globalism groups, Civil Liberties Advocates, the 9/11 Truth Movement, etc., all have a valuable role in the overall movement. The people in these organizations might not agree on every detail, but their ultimate purpose is the same. The Liberty Movement strives, above all else, for the application of honesty in government, respect for the facts wherever they may lead, and the acceptance of individualism as the foundation of a healthy society.

In a culture awash in globalist disinformation, these seemingly straight forward concepts have met with extreme prejudice over the years.

A common misconception about individualism is that it breeds selfishness. In reality, true individualism demands self awareness and acknowledgment of inner conscience. Thus, individualists cannot help but develop compassion and empathy for others, and recognize that certain basic collectivity has its place. I have never met a Liberty Movement advocate that did not care deeply at some level for his fellow man. Most political ideologues I have dealt with in my life (including many environmentalists) did what they did, marched where they marched, protested where they protested, because they wanted a place to belong. They wanted to feel like they were a part of something “important.” They were more concerned with the appearance that they were trying to make a difference, and less concerned about actually accomplishing anything tangible. In the end, they did what they did to elevate their personal sense of self worth, rather than help others.

The Liberty Movement is the first political organization that I have ever come across in which nearly every man and woman I meet is resoundingly attacked as “extremist,” and shirked by the so called “mainstream,” yet they go out and fight anyway. Recently the movement has received some recognition for its efforts, but years before this they pushed on, not to belong, not to feel good about their position, only for the truth, and to warn others about the approaching precipice we may soon face. This is the mark of authentic individualism; knowing one’s self, so that he might live an honorable life, and better help others do the same.

The “extremist” label is bizarre when you examine the foundations of our movement. What we want for the future is what most everyone wants. However, if we think of it as a reactionary bias provoked by established world view, it makes perfect sense. In the U.S. alone, a profound percentage of people have never believed in anything politically oriented as passionately as we believe in the Liberty Movement. Many Americans, frustrated, tired of being constantly duped by misguided philosophical factions and false leaders, have turned towards cynicism as their only bastion of mental safety. Better, they think, to believe in nothing at all, than to believe in something and have one’s hopes dashed yet again. In comparison to such an empty and languished world view, the heartfelt drive of the Liberty Movement is almost frightening.

Another reason why those that are uneducated about our methodology are so willing to take the media bait and conclude that we are “dangerous,” might be because the seductive message of globalism is so pervasive in our everyday lives. Who has not considered with infantile astonishment the dream of a technological Utopian paradise, complete with magnetic super-trains and space stations made of chocolate and stardust. No war, no poverty, maybe no death. How grand it would be. When people hear the term globalism, this is the image they have been taught to conjure in their minds. Star Trek, here we come…..

The idea of an entire movement, millions of people like us, who oppose globalism? Who would be crazy enough to stand in the way of paradise?

Many in the past few generations have been so hypnotized by the globalist charade that in order to fathom our resistance to it they must invent intricate prejudices they can project, instead of taking the time to listen to our legitimate arguments. We must be “isolationists” who “fear foreign influence over our cultural identity.” Or we must be “traditionalists” who refuse to yield to “new and progressive ideas.” In their minds, we are fossils, holding back the rest of humanity from its inevitable rise to “oneness.”

The great punchline of globalism is that it is not a new or progressive ideal at all. Elitists from every age have desired one thing above all else, the total domination of the known world. Thousands of years ago we had globalism, except that the known world was much smaller then. Alexander the Great sought globalism. Rome was the global government of its era. Even the science fiction mumbo-jumbo associated with globalism today is not new. The European Futurists developed the basic idea at the turn of the 20th century, believing that social evolution was a straight line in which the values of yesterday were meaningless, and only the discoveries of tomorrow mattered. And, the Theosophical Society formed around the same period added the ambiguous New Age spiritualist spin to complete the facade, filling the emotional void left by the obsession with technological advancement, though it was spiritualism without real substance.

The fact is, we are not “one,” we are many. Though we share a common archetypal experience of existence, this does not mean we will ever be a single unit acting in concert, nor should we be. One true individual can accomplish more for the sake of mankind than a thousand collectivists working in unity and thinking alike. It is always individuals who strike upon the epiphanies that define an age. Collectives only help to promote those epiphanies, or cause pain by suppressing them.

This is where the Liberty Movement stands; at the balancing point between the advantages of group action, and the sovereign wealth inherent in the individual. Those who seek to tip the scale towards one excess or the other usually do so to cause chaos, and derive power. To stand against the tipping of the scale is not an act of “isolationism,” or “traditionalism;” it is an act of reason and wisdom.

I have felt for a long time now that if there is such a thing as progression, then the Liberty Movement is a part of it. Social evolution is not a straight line in which the past is shed like useless skin. It is a spiral, a circular movement in which we often repeat the lessons and realizations of the past, each time discovering something new, working towards the center, towards understanding. The Liberty Movement acknowledges the value of the past in the process of constructing an enduring future. We know that the past holds a well of resources, including such philosophical shields as Constitutionalism, which we abandon at our peril.

I am an American citizen. I am this country’s son. It is here that liberty, legitimate freedom, was first elevated as a mandate that supersedes all others. I believe in this place. I believe in this plot of earth. Fantastic and history shattering events were born here, and they can be again. I once thought that affecting genuine good was impossible, that the most I could expect was to get through the everyday maelstrom of being, and perhaps derive some small measure of comfort and happiness in the process. But I found that there is a greater responsibility to living, that “adapting” to imbalance and injustice is for those who are afraid. I am not afraid, and neither are the many members of the Liberty Movement that you might meet in any given day. I will struggle, as will they, for something far better. We will fight, not for what humanity is, but what it COULD BE.

I know now, we are the right men, in the right place, at the right time…
