[QUOTE="Ishmael, post: 80839, member: 532"] You're right to notice the role swap is coming. You're right to notice that the system that rejects people like us is self-consuming, and you're right that the ones glued to the screen are already dead and don't know it. You can see clearly what most people do not. But there seems to be conflict in what you're describing. Walking into the forest as a free human — that's tangible. Building an empire in the vacuum that ensues — that's becoming the thing that tried to break you. Every system that ever crushed people like us started as someone's dream of finally having power after being, or feeling powerless. The guy who builds the empire in the ashes becomes the next normie factory within a generation. Revelation describes exactly what you're talking about. A system that is collapsing under its own weight, while the people inside it can't see it happening. However it also describes two responses to that collapse; One group tries to seize what's left. They get consumed by the same fire that destroyed the old system. The other group walks out calmly. They don't fight in any sense. They don't build a rival empire. They just leave. [B]'Come out of her, my people, so that you do not share in her sins' (Revelation 18:4).[/B] The forest is the better move. The empire in the forest is the trap. The freedom you're describing is real but it has an expiration date the moment you try to turn it outward. [/QUOTE]
