September Recap
Updates, Freedom fights, and ways to take action.
Feedback
I’d love to know how you feel about the content here! I am a firm believer in bottom-up strategies.
Have you found yourself trapped in situations because of unnecessary digital systems?
What actions do you take to either mitigate censorship, algorithmic manipulation, or surveillance?
What would you like to get out of the Libre Solutions Network & its content?
What would you like to see covered in upcoming recap posts?
What I’ve been up to
Hugo themes
Not everyone needs a highly dynamic website. Sometimes a simple place to upload content is enough. Both Libre Solutions Network and Gabe Rocks! use hugo to be generated. As I iterate on these themes people will be able to use them to make their own sites.
Features:
Multi-media embeds
Social media previews
RSS friendly!
Campfire.Wiki
I’ve officially started contributing to Campfire.Wiki. I think it’s important we have truly independent record of the overreach, abuses, and many tragedies of the Covid Crisis. As a Canadian, I’m working to not let our side of things be forgotten.

Notables
Artistic works to promote freedom
Despite not being an artist myself, I think authentic artistic expression is likely one of the most important methods of reclaiming the narrative. Images, songs, paintings, video, or theatre can all condem the awful parts of the culture and help people imagine a better way forward.
ICENI Stream
If you have three hours to listen to a fantastic discussion about the overall picture of the technocratic terror creeping into our lives, I’d highly recommend giving it a listen.
While listening to the discussion about the duality of some high tech research, I was reminded of this scene from robocop. “He’s a passenger, just along for the ride…the illusion of free will”
If you haven’t seen the Robocop remake, I’d highly recommend watching it. I think it’s a phenomenal commentary on many of the issues inherent to transhumanist tech.
Ethereum Merge
Should a powerful government want to invalidate the ETH tokens held by Jon Doe, a labeled opponent of the regime, they can simply pressure Coinbase and the gang to blacklist his transactions. The same goes for Jane Doe, who a random bureaucrat could determined is a “criminal,” and force a major stakeholder to change the rules to punish Mrs Doe. Her Ethereum wallet can be blacklisted with the click of a button, rendering her entire wealth in this currency instantly worthless.
Internet censorship
One of the major providers of internet infrastructure (Cloudlfare) had their hand forced to stop providing services to Kiwifarms. Regardless of what the forum has or hasn’t done, this is a significant turning-point for the future of the internet. This had only been done twice before and those incidents were considered outliers. Moving forward we can no longer assume that DDOS protection, and domain registration is safe for highly contentious issues.
I spoke about the kiwifarms incident in a recent episode of Culturewar Radio. It is quite a complicated issue for a variety of reasons. Ultimately it is up to the people to decide the level of censorship they are willing to tolerate or work against.
We need to talk about Mr Global
I am very happy that OVAL Media is hosting this on PeerTube.

Take action
Justice for the vaccinated
Because Becky only has until November 12th, 2022 to file an appeal of her rejection…we need to act fast. Becky needs legal representation and we all need to see what is going on here.
Global walkout
A Reignite Freedom initiative, the Global Walkout is a list of concrete steps you can take to decentralize power away from unaccountable institutions and into more local control. This helps build communities and their resilience.

PSA: Freedom Fighter Fights
As I wrote in tools of the technocracy, these systems are so powerful that we have to do everything we can to oppose human enslavement. It should go without saying that would include working alongside people we may have severe disagreements with.
We do not have the luxury of ideological conformity. Cooperation is a powerful force that shouldn’t be underestimated. The only ones who benefit from fragmenting people working for freedom are those who want to work against freedom.
This doesn’t mean you have to agree with everything that is said or introduced. It is everyone’s responsibility to keep our groups on task and not distracted with unfruitful debates. Like everything else there is a time and place for respectful conversations about difficult topics.
The first priority should be above all what we can actually do to oppose tyranny.
Corona Investigative Committee
These are challenging times, and it can be really challenging to know how to proceed. Regardless of how this ends, I cope the great work of the Corona Investigative Committee doesn’t go forgotten.
The blind leading the blind
I have been a member of various groups intended for people to take action on different items. It is frustrating to see “awake” people sap energy from these groups by either using them as a dumping-ground for their information, or demanding people focus on their particular issues. If you can’t recognize the benefit of people focusing on solving certain problems, you’re the one who needs to understand what is at stake.
There is a lot of important information worth sharing. By all means, start your own group, setup your own publication. Don’t try to hijack whatever group you have access to as a platform to advance your own agenda.
Is Mass formation psychosis a trap to pathologize dissent?
I would highy recommend listening to Dig It! #159 The “Mental Health Emergency”.
Why is this so contentious? It really depends how you see the Covid Crisis. Were people all just brainwashed (by the elite or by each other) or were people responding to rational incentives?
In my opinion, those who have entirely different outlooks on the Covid Crisis should still aim to work together on challenging medical tyranny. There is some commonality between these circumstances:
We all need to work towards holding those in power accountable
We all need to work in our capacity to make sure crimes are documented and prosecuted.
We all need to support each other to live healthier and happier lives.
As long as you’re in favor of those three things, I’ll be happy to disagree on any topic.
(Canada) The Canadian Charter
No founding document is perfect. Canada is in a highly unique position that one of the drafters of our constitution is still alive to tell us that it’s been disregarded by our institutions. Even if you’re not Canadian, you may find this interview with the Honorable Brian Peckford worth watching.
Here’s the problem: Government and all our institutions are downstream of our culture. If our country is entirely comprised of people who do not value fundamental rights, there is very little any document can do. As a Canadian, I do not feel that our problems are primarily caused by our government. I feel that much of the Covid Crisis was decades of apathy, indifference, and civic neglect coming to roost. If everyone in your country is unwilling to take a stand for anyone’s fundamental rights, they are already lost they just haven’t been tested.
Q adjacent
I am personally so irritated with the Q phenomenon that when I hear “great awakening” or “white hats” in any context I get irritated. If “white hats” have been in charge of the last two years, they are indistinguishable from the existing elites terrorizing society. What have they done for us…or anyone?
As irritating as it is, those of us trying to advocate for truth and justice are not held to the same standard as the mainstream media. We are going to be torn apart for any compromise we make from what we can definitively prove. While I’m open to alternate explanations, I am wholly convinced that the Q phenomenon is developed to sap precious time and resources from people sincerely motivated on building a better world.
Feedback:
I see your gift as providing a unique and important super node of synthesized information. Your mind is geared to elucidate our reality through a technical lens and I appreciate your dot connecting and attention to detailed methodology of the technocratic take over, even if I have to read your stacks twice: once to get the gist, digest, and return to in a few days. I see your spirit is courageous, yet empathic, and so it aligns with my own.
Thank you for the signal boost, it encourages me to create more. 🙏
I love the integrity of Brian Pickford.
My pushback on one of the steps: it’s important to keep an ear out for the mainstream media. It’ll be more accurate to say: watch so you know where the narrative is pulling, but don’t pull their plug. They ought to think they’re winning when in fact the jig is up.
I’m a Bitcoin maxi and hold very very little ETH, so I have little skin in the game: Bitcoin, so far, has provided the only exit ramp I see. All else has some rough paths ahead and will have to seriously contend to survive. And the elites having their grubby little fingers in the pot is very sus. But good luck to all who hold.
