I feel bitter about that too, and how you handle each individual you know who has done this is your call. Some people who betrayed you may be worth cutting off. But cutting them off means you lose any moral claim on them that their previous injustice toward you grants you.

If you can have only one of the two: winning the big issue and regaining our freedom; or taking vengeance against those who have wronged you-- which will you choose?

I have not cut anyone off. I have tried the "high road" with acquaintances (I hold the title of "friend" to a very select few, a title earned over years of in-person socialization).

I never started a fight.

Besides, I live for no man, and expect no man to live for me. I have no "moral claim" on another human being.

I am kind to all. That said, if you f@<k me, I will not hesitate to employ any tactic in defense of my life, person, or property.

Cordial talk is nice and all, but the reality is if negotiations fail, the end default inevitably is torches and pitchforks.

I like your way of life, and I agree with most of what you have said here. I will say though that we live in a predaceous world, and one of social climbing.

A single individual, however strong, is prey for a pack. A "moral claim" is what makes us part of a pack, and gives us the right not to be eaten by our mates.

In the present case, we have the WEF pack trying to make prey of the rest of us. They do this by manipulating our naive fellows, with illusions of mortal danger and the promise of personal status, into tearing our packs apart leading us into mass suicide. If some foolish, karen, alpha-wannabe packmate, in his madness, attempts to assault and poison us for the WEFers, then he deserves whatever we can deal out to him by way of self defense. But once he comes to his senses, we should remember that he was only a foolish pup who hadn't yet known better at the time. To win, we have to remember who our real enemy is, and if we want those torches and pitchforks to be in the plural, then we have to be prepared to reconcile with that chastened pup.

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

The Normals should be the predators and WEF the prey.

They should fear each of us, every individual.

They can smell weakness miles away. That's how they snookered the world first time around because we were nice and trusting. These evil beings should have no doubt The Normals won't stand for it again.

Nobody fears the nice.

Predators are the thugs who make their living by mugging others. Normals are not predators, at least in the present context, and they never will be. The most we can ever aspire to is to be a snorting rhinoceros in a canefield that is too dangerous to take down. If we win, we can stomp our would-be predator into the mud. But predators? On the likes of Bill Grates and Klaus Squaab? Who would want to eat them?

It is not the deer or the squirrel that smells the other's weakness, but the wolf or the martin. Attraction to weakness is the hallmark of the predator. I am not your predator, so I will never come snuffling you down even if you are weak.

Why should the WEF fear us? Each alone, and each mad at the others, we are weak, and they can pick us off one by one at their leisure.

"The strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack." "We hang together, or we hang separately." "Nice" is not weakness. It is the glue that holds the pack together. They did this to us because foolish packmates were trusting, scared, or ambitious, yes, but niceness had nothing to do with it. They encouraged bullying and conflict from the beginning, to tear our peoples apart. That was the opposite of "nice."

If you want to be weak and encourage them to do it again, then slake your resentment for abuses received by returning "unnice" to all your kin. You will help the WEF by doing so, and find out soon enough how weak a bare brotherless back really is. But if you want to actually fight back against the WEF, then you need to be tough enough to swallow down your hurt feelings, apply "nice" where nice is appropriate, and work to rebuild the shattered ties of your community.
