Where’s the comment I had on this before?

Hm.

That list seems a bit off, like it’s based off media talking points.

Due process is important, but equal protection under the law is up there with it. That hasn’t existed for 60+ years. The process of nullification and the importance of trial by jury are probably even more important.
We’ve ceded law to the lawyers. To quote Robert Downey Jr, “not a good plan.”

Freedom of speech should have added, freedom of association.
A businessman who loves his country is forced to hire and fund someone who wants to destroy it or who hates his religious beliefs and morals under threat of having his business taken away.
That’s not freedom.

While those are certainly important, the things that truly set us apart to me that we have lost are the private, clear ownership of self rather than grants of permission through the ruler, and “government of the people”, where the meaning of “of” is no longer understood.

Before WWI, and the attempted genocide of 5 successive waves of American men by infiltrated foreign powers, at least policing and fire, and likely other, services were not filled by permanent paid employees of the city office, or county, or state. The word “Militia” is in the second amendment on purpose. Well-regulated militias were the means by which criminals were apprehended and emergencies dealt with. “OF” the people. This involved a lot of extra work and risk on the part of male citizens outside their normal lines of work, and I believe was expected of every able-bodied male between the ages of 16 and 54.
The National Guard act federalized all these away from being organized under the individual states in the early 1900s, and it has most assuredly paved the way for a lot of what was to come. At this point, the solution to this problem may have to be guided, as the resolution to this issue is going to be tricky. It’s worth being aware of the problem, though, explained nicely here. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fwNmL0AN49U&t=2860

I leave digging on what true “ownership of self” is to the reader, because it is both a process of discovery, and because I don’t fully understand it myself yet. It has been so fully destroyed that it is having to be completely rediscovered by a small handful of brave men who have accepted that the practice does, and will, involve persecution.

Slave masters do not like it when their slaves try to leave the plantation.
