<html> <p>One reason why #vonu is such a radical freedom strategy is that it requires individuals to drastically alter the lifestyle they have been living. Most folks are NOT willing to do that, and therefore, the instinct (it seems) is to try to tear down and convince the self-liberator otherwise: that they should be "thankful" for being born here in "America" and that they are blessed to be able to pursue "The American Dream." Of course, I believe jealousy is a major part of that -- "If I can't be free, HE/SHE can't either." Just more examples of the horizontal social control, or, in other words, slave on slave violence reinforcing the State and the statist-servile society.</p> <p><center><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/VdjqIamjR-Q/maxresdefault.jpg"></center></p> <p>What advice would I posit for dealing with this?</p> <p>First off, don't let the criticisms or expectations from those in the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/firstrealm?source=feed_text">#FirstRealm</a> affect the plan you have for your pursuit of <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/vonu?source=feed_text">#vonu</a>. In other words, don't feel "guilt," "shame," or whatever for living a lifestyle not approved by those in the servile society.</p> <p>If you're a van nomad working a few half days a week, making little enough to not be liable for income theft, an individual may try to guilt you by accusing you off "freeloading" off the system. You know what I say to that person? Pardon my french, but fuck you. I didn't choose to be born here, I didn't setup this system, and I sure as hell don't consent to it. And I thought this was the "Land of the Free" anyways? Ha. Right.</p> <p>My first piece of advice above may appear to go without saying, but it's critically important if one is going to be successful; consider it a milestone in exorcising those collectivist spooks. Similarly, recall <a href="https://anarplex.net/hosted/files/secondrealm/secondrealm.pdf"><em><strong>Second Realm: Book on Strategy</strong></em></a>, namely number 8 of "Next Steps":</p> <blockquote>Give up collectivist thought, especially asking for permission and requiring others to support you before you do anything.</blockquote> <p>Recognizing and managing your controlled schizophrenia is the crucial first step in pursuing vonu. Without it, vonu will likely NOT be a lifestyle change, but rather a foray with a return to a conventional lifestyle.</p> <p>In summation, as Rayo said,</p> <blockquote>"Whether one will be happier as a freeman or as a slave partly depends on the individual. But this choice is not open to most libertarians. Relative contentment in servitude is possible only for those who believe in it; most libertarians are too independent and well-informed. <em><strong>For libertarians the choice is between freedom and neurosis</strong></em>." [Emphasis added]</blockquote> <p>So, what's it going to be? Freedom? Or neurosis?</p> <p><center><img src="http://www.libertyunderattack.com/wp-content/uploads/Documents/rayo%20quote%20fb.jpg"></center></p> <p>For more information on controlled schizophrenia and how to deal with it, check out <strong><em>The Vonu Podcast</em></strong>; I'll link a couple pertinent episodes below.</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://vonupodcast.com/6/">TVP #6</a>: Controlled Schizophrenia - Freedom or Neurosis?</li> <li><a href="http://vonupodcast.com/tvp-33-exorcise-collectivist-spooks/">TVP #33</a>: How to Exorcise Those Collectivist Spooks</li> </ul> <hr> <p><center>http://tfrlive.com/images/playerimages/libertyunderattack.png</p> <p><center><strong>Shane is the founder of </strong><a href="https://www.libertyunderattack.com"><strong>Liberty Under Attack</strong></a> and host of <strong>LUA Radio</strong>, a once-weekly podcast released every Sunday; he also does <strong><a href="http://www.vonupodcast.com">The Vonu Podcast</a></strong>, which is released every Tuesday.
