Where is our champion of freedom? Where is our rallying point? Where are the people such as those that run very well known right-wing, conservative sites or any of the right wing “freedom loving” YouTube influencers to utilize that influence over thousands for the cause of freedom in the real world and get us away from endless posting and video making to take visible, tangible action to preserve our freedoms? I’m not even speaking of violence. I’m talking about something as simple as a national gathering at any single point in the country, just name the spot. We could converge and at least be seen for our numbers without even a word being spoken. We could all simply gather in unity and solidarity for freedom of speech, freedom of association, for freedom from medical tyranny; to let it be known that we are not ok with jobs being taken, lives being ruined, and people’s reputations being drug through the mud because of a stupid slip of the tongue or God forbid, a tweet; that we are not ok being locked inside invisible cages due to some virus that from day one has had conflicting information about it being given to the public. Then they act surprised when they are told, “we don’t believe you, and even if the virus is whatever you say, we don’t care!” I’m not saying that it’s any one man’s responsibility, but people in a greater known capacity have a greater likelihood of gathering the masses for the cause than some anon “poaster” on social media. They have a greater chance of taking a movement further due to visibility. Everyday I see story after story, post after post of how our freedoms are slipping and by in large have slipped away. Why aren’t we mobilizing peacefully? Why aren’t we doing anything at all? Someone has to take the lead, don’t you think so? It’s obvious that Republicans in Congress, nor the president is going to do a thing about it. When this question is raised, it seems as people take it as a personal attack on their patriotism and quickly snipe back, “Well what are you doing?”. For me, personally, I am a nobody, completely unknown outside of a small number of friends and a handful of people online. This sniping shouldn’t be, friends. A lot of people are looking for a clear leader. Many are yearning for leadership. Not, everyone is a leader and not everyone has the qualities required to rally people for a cause. Those who have proven they have these qualities by building “followings” online are just a natural place to look. We’re not talking armed rebellion here. We’re simply talking about something, anything as a starting point, anything as a vehicle to fight for our constitutionally guaranteed freedoms that are being ripped from our grip. Are we all just accepting our fate? Is that what this is? I’m not sure I understand. In many ways I’m bewildered. Is our inactivity part of our judgement from God. Blinded by God as to think that somehow we’re doing something by being active online but having no affect in the corridors of power. What is this? Where are we? Am I dreaming? I have to wonder, besides the pay, what is the use of being an “influencer” if you don’t use the influence where and when it’s needed most? Where is our Washington? Where is our Adams? Where is our Houston? I’m sorry, please forgive my confusion. I’m seeing a once great nation being taken apart piece by piece and it appears we are powerless to stop it. If you think November is going to change anything, then allow me to wake you from your century long slumber. It won’t. We the people have to act. We have to move. We have to get loud. “We the people”…. remember when that phrase meant that we were the government. It’s never been more clear that now, in present time, 2020, we the people, are subjects, not rulers.
