The idea of establishing order out of chaos, or dividing to bring together stronger than before, often evokes images of global powers contriving against masses. False flags being employed to implement restrictive laws, fear being used to manipulate to exert greater control. But the principle of chaos being exploited as a source of order is not necessarily evil in and of itself. Certainly, imposing chaos on others may be, but on a personal and internal level there are advantages to this occult idea. I myself have begun to implement a new personal order out of 2020 and in response to the rise of big tech as a global, political force.
The purges, censorship and ongoing revelations of data harvesting have throw dissidents throughout the Western world into a state of disarray. It has cost individuals funding, publicity and in some cases their livelihoods. We have, simply put, placed ourselves in the hands of people who wish us harm. We thought big tech entities would adhere to certain principles, such as freedom of expression, for the sake of a greater good. This misconception had led to the present state of chaos, which is intended to demoralise and suppress, until a final monopoly over Internet communication is seized by big tech.
It is up to us to begin a migration, to establish order in the process. To see that the political misinformation, fear campaigns and blatant violations of privacy carried out by corporate entites such as Google inspire a change in how we use the Internet. The Internet is fundamental to how we communicate, work and entertain ourselves, it is an unavoidable reality of our day to day life. Whether we like this fact or not, if you’re not going full Kaczynski and getting a cabin in the woods, you need to start considering going off the grid at least virtually.
Let us begin with the basis from which everything else will work, the operating system. If you are using Windows, you are supporting the Gates Foundation. At the very least you should have a dual boot set up, in which Windows serves only as a back up or is only used when absolutely essential. For me, this is using certain hardware devices, until I configure them to run under Linux.
Linux Mint is both aesthetically pleasing and secure in as much you are no longer low hanging fruit to hackers and virus developers. Whilst no OS is inherently perfect, you are off to a better start as soon as you switch from big tech to any Linux distro. Simply based on historic use, I prefer Linux Mint. One of the main advantages is the control Mint offers you over installing updatates. From the convenient taskbar shortcut you can limit updates to security essential alone, this is in stark contrast to the invasive update process of a Windows system which offers minimal user input.
Antivirus software is considered to be a vulnerability for a Linux system, so unlikely and far removed is the threat of becoming infected through general Internet usage. You are fine without antivirus software should you choose to run Linux Mint.
As far as search engines go, I use qwant and have installed yacy. Switching from google to a more secure, privacy focused search engines is one of the easier changes to make. Alternatives to youtube are also easy to come by. Invidious is excellent, and allows users to watch youtube videos without being tracked.
Pale Moon with the Ublock add on makes a superior alternative to the globalist Firefox. There is also Ice Cat, although I have not yet successfully installed it on Linux Mint.
For E mail I use criptext for personal e mail and protonmail for subscriptions and work. There are a wealth of superior alternatives to gmail and outlook.
From individual to individual, there will inevitably be differences in our software choices, the point is, we are NOT choosing big tech. Alt tech by its very nature is not a monopoly run by a small handful of corporations, there is variety and choice. After having only one option, choice can seem initially overwhelming. Find what works for you, what is user friendly, what offers functionality over bells and whistles without compromising your privacy. Neocities for instance offers an elegant file manager and HTML editor, simple but functional. Invidious has a superior search feature to many other alt tech video platforms and is capable of displaying Youtube videos without allowing tracking. The discovery of Invidious as made Youtube obsolete for me.
I have made, and I am still in the process of making changes and thus establishing an order from the chaos which has been inflicted upon us. Privacy, secrecy even, is a valuable asset in a world in which we have been reduced to products and in which we can be imprisoned for saying the wrong thing. For convenience we have offered ourselves up as products to be sold either to third parties or law enforcement, to be marketed to or potentially persecuted by unjust governments. This will not stop until we begin to make the necessary changes.
We have the choice to cease any support for corporations which back groups such as BLM, the ground level shock troops of the status quo. We can choose to stop handing over our data to forces of evil such as Google and Facebook. Our lack of cooperation is dissidence in itself, and is one of the few avenues available to us. The march on The Capitol has provided the perfect catalyst for the illegitimate Biden regime to perform social alchemy and place a firmer chokehold on perceived competition. Democracy can no longer tolerate competition, this is reflected in the monopoly held by big tech.
The glowing praise enjoyed by BLM, their freedom to use big tech platforms without fear of censorship, may ultimately be to the detriment of the useful idiots. In the throes of a second industrial revolution, we now have the opportunity to get ahead of the curve and reinvent how we use the Internet. Meanwhile, the followers of globalism will be left in a clinical echo chamber, closely monitored and manipulated. Their big tech masters always handing them more rope, relying on the cognitive dissonance of the normie, the tolerance of the indifferent. Outside the echo chamber, there are millions who are dissatisfied with this arrangement.
Meanwhile, an actual organic revolution is taking place beneath the surface, indirectly started by the reprehensible conduct of our enemies. It involves changing how we navigate the second industrial revolution, post Covid tyranny, big tech censorship and all out violent hostility from the state and its Antifa/BLM agents. If we maintain one front and neglect another, all of our efforts are compromised. We need to be sharp both physically and mentally, adaptable enough to not be swayed by what feels like the culmination of twelve months of black pills. Our order from their chaos, the ability to transform our circumstances on an individual scale, and inspire those around us to do the same.
In 2016 there was a buzz surrounding ‘meme magick’ and the fear it instilled into our establishment opposition. I truly believe a big tech exodus has the potential to inspire a similar energy, something to reinvigorate and put the globalist back on guard. They will not settle for gloating and enjoying victory, they will increase hysteria surrounding the threat of the ‘far right’, we should place ourselves far beyond their reach and become as asymmetrical and unmanageable as possible. Parler, unfortunately was within the reach of Amazon. There is a lesson to be learnt there.
What is the red pill to be taken away from these seemingly disastrous times?
Our own will to self betterment, and opposition to evil has not ceased. There are many ways we can continue to function in the fallout of 2020. We should be reminding our friends to stop supporting big tech, as much a we remind them to maintain their physical wellbeing and get to the gym. We should establish small, reliable cells rather than massive scale, impersonal and easily compromised social networks. These cells should meet offline as much as possible and members should support one another, as the world we live in does not have any kind of support to offer us.
A secure chat group between five or six friends, sharing daily accomplishments, offering advice, working towards productive common goals should overtake collecting ‘friends’ on some data harvesting scheme. This kind of Internet usage, designed to take advantage of brain chemistry, more habit forming than constructive should be given up as soon as possible and to the fullest possible extent.
Now is a time for optimism. The alternative will lead us nowhere, they are absolutely counting on our acceptance of defeat. We need to become asymmetrical and begin to operate on our own terms, independent of them, beyond their reach. Moving away from big tech is more than just switching from Windows to Linux, it a start point which will lead to further changes and remind us that we have not totally lost control, we just need to take steps to regain what we have inadvertantly given up.
