The other day, I used the term "panarchy" and caught some of my listeners off guard. It's time to explore the difference between being free to choose and being forced to choose between artificially limited options when it comes to your governance. If you want a down and dirty explanation of the blessings of panarchy, no one explains it more succinctly than Paul Rosenberg.
Look around you and you'll notice that people in authority are panicking. Not because of the latest Covid varient (although that's the excuse they're using) but because they know their power over the public is waning. This is why the media drumbeat of fear is intensifying by the minute. Paul Krause makes a timely plea that we don't let them scare our freedoms away.
As much as I'm tempted to pound the pulpit and start thundering, I get the sense that this is the time to speak as calmly and carefully as possible about the latest variant. That's when I'm grateful for writers like Daisy Luther, who notes that Omicron is a perfectly timed variant to scare the unruly back into submission.

As a guy whose success hasn't gone to his clothes, fashion has always been a pretty low priority for me. Collette from the Frugalite has a great take on why fast fashion isn't frugal and why buying long-lasting clothing is a smart move.
I sure don't mean to challenge the highest paid federal employee who also just happens to be science incarnate, but here's a compilation of more than 400 studies on the failure of compulsory Covid interventions. Looks like Dr. Fauci isn't the only one out there trying to save lives.
Anyone who has read Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged" has likely wondered if it's time to head out to Galt's Gulch to escape the growing madness of our society. Bretigne Shaffer says, we're already there and there are numerous ways of fighting back from where we are.
Here's something to consider the next time you're feeling frustrated with rising gas prices. Those sitting at the top of the political class seem determined to dismantle the fossil fuels industry as quickly as possible. Ronald Stein details the many ways that Biden lacks understanding of oil's contributions to civilization.
The rage and destructive division that appears to be growing in our society is largely being fueled by racial polarization. Sheldon Richman warns that this racial polarization is poison and that each of us should be speaking out against it.

One of the biggest reasons why the public's faith in political institutions is fading fast is that politicians are becoming well-practiced in avoiding accountability. Robert E. Wright explains why democracy demands transparency and limited government.
Sure, you may think that if you've seen one Hallmark Channel Christmas movie, you've seen them all. But there's a quality in these movies that speaks to something good that is fading from our culture. Martin Cothran makes a pretty convincing argument that the Hallmark Channel saved Christmas.
Do you get the sense that a lot of people are seething just beneath the surface? We've had to deal with a lot of pressure and stress lately but why are we so angry? Peter W. Wood says we have one angry nation with two wildly divergent explanations for why this is so.

People who learn about history are a lot harder to fool than those who don't. Martin Armstrong does a marvelous comparison of the federalist v. anti-federalist/vaccinated v. unvaccinated struggle for control.
It's rare to see a public leader speaking truthfully and openly about the unprecedented abuse of power we're seeing these days. Her name is Christine Anderson and she has a message worth hearing.
We may be a few days past Thanksgiving but Thomas Luongo has a fantastic essay on how being thankful is the key to victory over the Davos crowd. A growing number of people are losing faith in the systems that seek to rule us. That's great news.
You've likely experienced contact-less shopping at one or more places. Lawrence M. Vance says this is an idea that would translate well into our interactions with government. Namely, we should be moving toward contact-less government as we reclaim our freedoms.
One of the keys to maintaining your sanity in times of upheaval is to stop obsessing over the things we don't have the power to change and to focus on what we can do. Ron Paul says this includes reducing our expectations of government.

Right now, the world's leaders are mashing down on the "fear" button just as hard as they can. Our job, as sources of truth and light, is to speak the truth--with love, for the sake of those who are still reachable. Paris Williams perfectly describes how love, not fear will get us through this crisis.
Making sense of the bigger picture of what's going on all around us requires some serious effort. Paul Rosenberg wrote about the rape of the West more than 5 years ago. His observations have held up well and offer some real insight into why our so-called leaders are so adept at bypassing morality.
One of the strongest symptoms of our societal disconnect from reality can be seen in how racially-obsessed individuals tend to label everyone who will not chant in unison with them as "racist." Glenn Greenwald is the voice of reason on such matters as he describes the cynical and dangerous weaponization of the "white supremacist" label by the left.
People who believe in word magic tend to be the most egregious users of labels and name-callers. Like the little boy who cried wolf, there comes a point when they have no credibility. As Howard Hyde explains, when everyone's a white supremacist, no one is.
The reinstatement of travel bans and mask mandates over the latest virus variant is a strong indicator that we're still not in control of our own lives. Tom Slater advises that we must reject this Covid safetyism unless we want to live in a society where we can be pushed around forever.

It sure seems as though the government is turning up the pressure in its last ditch effort to salvage the crumbling COVID-19 narrative. Milosz Matuscheck has an excellent explanation of when resistance becomes duty. We've reached the point where there is no getting around civil disobedience anymore.
It's sad to see workers being pushed into unemployment for their refusal to bow to the demands of the political class. Austin Stone reminds us that Americans don't hate work so much as they hate the workplace for what it is becoming.

Pay close attention to the kinds of things that command your attention. Are you more focused on the personalities and issues in the news or with improving yourself and your understanding of the world? Alex R. Knight III says to conserve your sympathies and fight your own battles if you want to have impact.
One of the most positive things we can do for ourselves is to learn to be less enemy-driven in our thinking. Kent McManigal reminds us that the other side isn't what's evil. It's what's in our own hearts that needs our strongest efforts.
One of the surest ways that we can recognize how quickly our liberty is dwindling is when free speech comes under direct attack. Jonathan Turley clues us in on how the Aspen Institute has created a commission of 16 individuals whose job is to fight "information disorder." If you're a truth-seeker, you'll want to know about this.
Right on cue, as the prevailing Covid narrative begins to fall apart like a soup sandwich, another variant is being touted by the narrative managers. Joakim Book reviews some of the key lessons learned over the past couple of years regarding the race to win Covidfinity.

I tried, and failed, to strictly regulate my food consumption for Thanksgiving day. However, I did manage to give some serious thought to what it means to be thankful. Barry Brownstein has another great essay on transforming our ingratitude into gratitude.
Just how important is a sense of gratitude? Daisy Luther reminds us that the more unstable things become, the more important it is to appreciate what you already have.

When domestic troubles begin to pile up at home, politicians have historically used war as a distraction to keep the populace in line. Pat Buchanan questions the wisdom of U.S. officials who are playing with fire on Russia's borders and where it may lead us.
It's shocking how quickly governments around the world are working to implement some form of Covid apartheid. Joseph Kulve explains the cruel lesson we can learn from Austria's Covid vax insanity and why it's more important than ever that we stand firm in defense of our right of informed consent.
If you're waiting for the right time to take a stand, here's an unpopular truth: The right time will never come. Paul Rosenberg has some sage advice regarding the decision to take action and how it doesn't have to be a perfect plan to make an appreciable difference.
The terms "kulak" and "Holodomor" are unfamiliar to many Americans. Only those who have studied enough history to know about Stalin's decision to starve to death millions of Ukrainians in the 1920s and 1930s will know what these terms mean. Revolver News asks, are you ready to become an American kulak?
