People keep discussing parallel societies (and economies.) The question is where do I start?
Meerloos had the right idea. But implementing it is the big problem.
Freedom Cells are one idea. So are chapters of Make America Free Again.
Here’s another idea. A woman’s craft and budget social circle.
I’ve been thinking about a small business I could start and realize two or three cottage “industries” could be the answer. As things become more expensive, I’m learning to make more of what I need.
Save and make money from home.
I don’t have a family but am restricted in movement and energy thanks to iatrogenic disability. More homeschooling, more unemployment, more disability. (I’m looking at you Clot Shot.)
Instead of going online find people in your community who need a good you can produce from home.
Mr. Global keeps nudging people along with convenience and comfort for carrots and orchestrated mass hysteria for sticks.
A women’s social circle dedicated to arts and crafts can make work fun.
God made us to be in community with one another. He also ordered us to work instead of eating the bread of idleness.
Make it a “girls’ thing.”
Women are easier to persuade then men. Every social movement must be accepted by women if they don’t start it themselves.
Women enjoy crafts and socializing. As they have fun producing clothes, blankets, herbal mixes, soaps, and garden veggies they can start swapping them. The neat thing is we can get them participating in this before red pilling them.
Women do a lot of purchasing. The “pink” tax is a myth. The truth is women choose to spend more than men do to feel pretty. In a producer economy rather than a consumer, women would invest the labor in fixing their clothes and making scented soaps and lotions instead of throwing money at it.
Once women are onboard more will join in the spirit if not the actual circle. So will their husbands, fathers, and kids. Other circles will form and link up at a local level.
Expect less pizzazz.
As we reject government handouts, we must practice contentment with what we have. Prepare for internet disconnection, bank freezes, and rolling blackouts. These will happen everywhere but expect them to be far worse in areas Mr. Global knows to be “ungrateful.”
It’s not about winning. It’s about doing the right thing and staying free of the medical tyrants. To bend the knee to this new system will gain you food (of a sort), a pod for shelter and 3 garments a year. Rejecting it may mean starving in the elements—or just being eliminated.
Don’t expect much in the way of material goodies in the time ahead. But without systems of our own in place we will not have a chance of survival.
By the way…do not say this in the opening meeting of the women’s society you try to start. Heh heh. We need fun more than ever now.
During women’s society meetings, get others talking about their children and the health of relatives. As the economy collapses further they’ll also be talking more about unemployment and homelessness of acquaintances.
Women have traditionally educated the young, nursed the sick, and fed the poor. Even today these interest members of the fair sex more than becoming CEO’s of banks or corporate executives, or mechanical engineers.
Why have we tried to force ourselves into what society told us to despite our natural inclinations? I’ve had feminists tell me the only reason I grieved my lack of husband and kids was because “society conditioned” me to do so.
To which I ask, “What society are you talking about?” My religious, conservative subculture has. But I chose that subculture because I disliked the shallow, self-absorbed hedonism outside of it.
The outside world around me urged us young women to sleep around and start careers requiring graduate degrees. Before marrying, we could have fun and find out who we are. If we chose to marry. If we didn’t that was great. A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle.
This message was in all the major magazines, on all television shows, movies. It was touted everywhere since the 1980’s or 90’s. Just like the Covid narrative.
That may have been why fewer of us trads fell for the Big Lie. Even if we watched TV regularly, we knew that lies on that idiot box were common.
Worth noting that my sex produced the worst Covidians both in quantity and quality. Pretending to be exactly like men has not been a success. (Except for those wishing to undermine and destroy humanity.)
It’s okay to be a member of the weaker sex. But cowardice is another thing. So is folly.
Women of the west, be brave. Be wise. Lean into our strengths and encourage men to lean into theirs.
The church was started by women, slaves, and poor people. The underdogs of society who hid in the catacombs at times. Yet it outlasted the Roman empire.
Weakness is our strength.
As Gandalf said to Boromir in LOTR, “Our only hope lies in foolishness.”
Ah. It looks like you are arriving at my epiphany from many months ago. There is no viable human solution to the worlds problems. All of this non sense will continue until God wipes out mr. Global aka the antichrist with his breath.
The only thing we can really do in the mean time is hunker down in small communities and help Him (God) save the odd soul through evangelism when we feel inclined by Him to do so.
