Each individual owns themself. No individual owns others. Recognition and application of this is the solution.
right...
but forcing those who believe they own us, to recognize that they do not, is a bit more complicated than simply declaring ourselves sovereign. (and if you do attempt to "go around declaring personal sovereignty," you will be labeled "a dangerous cook/criminal")
Instead of acknowledging our declaration of self-ownership, they will simply command their mercenary goons to impose force upon us, regardless of our absent consent, leaving only the options of compliance or death. (how ironic for those goons... they believe they are "protecting freedom," while being the primary tool used to prevent and/or revoke it; they must believe they owe their masters an impossible debt, to believe themselves justified in continuously choosing to follow orders to oppress, violate and destroy, the very people they swore to protect! ...and only for the purpose of material compensation! "Just doing my job," "the law is the law..." <-- things a person lacking empathy or conscience would say...)
The problem is that they have monopolized authority to enforce, and in accordance with their own arbitrarily legitimized doctrine, regardless of whatever any dissenters might feel or think of it.
We are outgunned, distracted, divided and disorganized. And "they" own/control the infrastructure which would be necessary to facilitate a sufficient counter.
I have to mention good ole Alex Jones here (i don't necessarily agree with his personal beliefs, but he's right about a lot of important things): for many years, he's been insisting that the "endgame" is to coerce the populace into begging the U.N. to override the U.S. Gov't... for those usurpers who have made our government "evil," to have intended to do just that, so that we would cry for help to save us from the manufactured boogeymen, and ultimately, "to usher in a new world order; a one-world-government." He frequently mentions "problem, reaction, solution," because "TPTB" are all about social engineering and manipulation. The infiltrators who have usurped our gov't's power, have done so, so brazenly, intentionally, as a strategy to create a problem which acts like a predator to cause the reaction of driving the herd of cattle away from it, and into the "loving arms" of our globalist "saviors," which is the solution they want us to beg for.
If you want to make people choose something you know they normally wouldn't, create a duality in which the intended choice is contrasted by something far worse, while minimizing or eliminating all other feasibly better solutions. This is what they do, and on a massive, global scale. They don't want to just kill us all, they want to continue exploiting us; which they can't do if we're dead or rebelling. This is where "cointelpro" and the propaganda machine comes in, and why so many people either have no idea what's really happening in the world, or are too scared and/or confused to do anything about it. It's prohibitively difficult to explain anything to anyone whose frame of reference is engineered to be incompatible with the truth.
