MOVING DAY

Article #2 in a series of articles on the changes happening in the USA and the world and how to deal with them.

So you’ve decided to move out of your crime infested area to a safer, less overcrowded place. Good idea, except…. you won’t find any work there because that’s why it’s not crowded, there’s no work. But it will be crowded soon enough because millions of dirt poor people with nothing are pouring into America and they will find this mecca of yours, and survive with their government issued EBT cards. They’ll move into every single abandoned home and building, they’ll set up camp in back yards, they’ll break into locked garages and sleep on the floors and burn down lots of them with their cooking fires and probably the connecting house as well.

Think it won’t happen? Look around. Check out the homeless encampments in Los Angeles, tell me that doesn’t shake your shit, huh? And that’s just there.

What you need to keep from being a sheep is Community Organization, not moving. Only if there’s already so much criminal activity right where you live that staying there is suicide, should you try to relocate to a safer place. Safer places are disappearing right now, you need to make the place you have safer if you possibly can.

So start Community Organizing. Avoid the subject of Politics and focus on Group Safety, Group Awareness, Neighborhood Watch. Find out who has military experience, medical knowledge, is or was in law enforcement, any survivalist types, herbalists. People with skills. You will find some don’t want to be bothered while others are natural leaders and organizers. If you can get this ball rolling, others may take over and carry the ball. You’ll need a regular meeting place or at least a place where the leaders can be called together when needed, to create plans of action. It’s important that once your community is organized for survival, that you stay connected to each other frequently, form ties and friendships.

For a good example, during the Watts riots many years back, when the blacks were out looting and burning the stores, they made a very short run at the shops owned by the Vietnamese immigrants. Short because the Vietnamese were on their rooftops with rifles and shot the looters when they came to loot and burn. That was the end of that. Vietnamese are not sheep. Arm up.

The worst problem when organizing your community, whether it’s a tenement building or an entire neighborhood, is always the arrogant, know it all assholes who bully their way into being the Big Leader, and who actually don’t know squat about tactics, they just want to be in charge and give orders. This is why you should always elect your leaders by democratic vote and have a council of them with equal say. Majority rules. Odd numbered council, like the Supreme Court, so the vote can never be even except for abstentions. 9 is a good number. No President or Chairman, no Big Leader. Just a council that decides.

There you have it. Pretend you’re Vietnamese, you have to stick together because you’re strangers in a strange land but at least you speak the same language and have the same goal, to survive. And if you don’t think you’re in a strange land now, you need to pay much better attention.
