Intrinsic?
Just what is intrinsic? According to the Cambridge Dictionary, it’s: “being an extremely important and basic characteristics of a person or thing.” Let’s reflect on this…
Freedom
Freedom is certainly intrinsic in the United States. Ironically, we broke from British tyranny to escape the type of persecution we encounter today. There’ a much- heralded post-modern gibberish called “wokeness”. Its followers will tolerate no other opinion. They are against free speech, true religious freedom (including Christians and Jews), second amendment gun rights, property rights, integration, actual peaceful protest that they don’t agree with, borders, rule of law, fair elections (with voter I.D.), or Western society in general.
Freedom is only granted by God, not the State. It is not guaranteed. It’s not free. Ronald Reagan said it best:
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
Social Media
Social Media (most see as intrinsic) has ever-changing standards. Those skewed standards are often made on a whim by power-drunk executives to see just how much people are willing to be controlled. Self-reliant, free-thinkers aren’t intrinsic to a highly- controlled society. Those folks must be silenced- kept out of social media or well-hidden from the compliant. We have been. Until now…
Limiting free speech stops when we demand it stop. It stops when we actually question what’s going on. It stops when we audit all politicians, not just one (President Trump). It stops with term limits for politicians. It stops when we turn their game on them. It stops when acceptance of fraud and corruption does.
So, sue high tech. Break up their monopolies. We, the people, will always find a better way. That’s the beauty of capitalism- if you don’t like it, walk to the next kiosk…
Government
Honest government is intrinsic to our way of life. When it becomes tyrannical, it must be replaced by vote. To do this, we need absolute confidence in our voting system. We need prosecution of those involved in the massive 2020 election fraud. We need all states to forensically audit every 2020 election. If those original votes were wrong, let’s overturn these elections; get the real winners in office, starting with duly re-elected President Trump. Fraud vitiates everything.
Popular Culture
Popular culture is intrinsic, but only for the lowest common denominator. Six companies control mass media; all in on the one-world government cabal. The art of more adventurous pop music is hard to find because it’s almost impossible to sustain in the “accepted” methods.
For we creative folks, it is intrinsic. Just live to record another day!
Free Spirit
© 2021 J. Mark Witters
Always chasing a mystery prize.
All varieties in one size.
Swept into the funnel of sale,
Or run out of town on a rail.
Free spirit, eclectic knave.
Absolute, steadfast, brave.
Clearly on the edge of fate
Ready for lift-off-sure and straight.
Just like painting with a broom,
Another bust becomes a boom.
Sadness fades, tears will dry
Free spirit sailing through the sky.
