Many have attempted to paint me, including yourself at times, as something of an off-the-handle troll, which really frustrated me to no end
I can understand this frustration, and feel it is probably similar to the frustration I felt at you bombarding my posts which had nothing to do with Adam or were specifically analyzing the conversations between you & him/Larken & him. I am only responsible for myself, and not for the actions/words of another. In my experience of those interactions, much of what felt like attacks from you was directed AT me, but was in response to things OTHERs had said/done.
We of course do not see eye to eye on everything. I do not know what the hell a "crystal grid" is, and I don't have much interest in incantations reciting the name of every ancient god known to man since time immemorial...
I literally LOL'd here :-) I personally love the places where the philosophy of different anarchists don't quite match up, and often see those as the conversations with the most potential for everyone to learn & grow (I remember a conversation we had about land ownership that was extremely insightful & fun).
I suspect that ultimately you are a genuinely caring dude with good intentions... and I actually respect you. The organizational skill, and real effort it takes to organize something like TSU is not to be ignored... but I do think... that you are somebody with a lot of force and power, that can make big changes in this world, because of your empathy.
I appreciate that, and certainly have spent a LOT of time, energy, and focus over the last 6 years to reprogram my brain out of the competitive, morally subjective, trauma-based character that my childhood & government indoctrination shaped.
My intentions are quite simple really: to focus on my own healing, integration, and growth at all times, to offer my experiences for others to learn from, and to help build a peaceful world through doing no harm to others. When I fall or stumble along the way, I see it as an opportunity to learn, and often share it publicly as well to help hold myself accountable (after our last word-flinging, my next post was specifically about the importance of empathy, clarity, and love in our communication, and how I still don't always come from that place).
I am glad you are pushing the topic, and have expressed that I think it would be best if AK responded to your claims & images. Whatever is happening / has happened between him, his campaign folks, and anyone else does not include me. He's hired me twice to cook for private events on his dust-farm, and that is the extent of our business dealings. I do not write about him or his campaign (occasionally mentioning his book still), and would really appreciate not being dragged into his battles.
I see no moral way to "vote" ourselves to a better world (and never registered to vote), I STRONGLY advocate that everyone stop paying taxes (and never have myself), I believe that leaders are those who go first and lead the way, which doesn't require any form of institution or "authority"... I am also living my own life, in a way that things like politics & politicians literally do not crossover with my reality, and I genuinely ask that you remove me from what I'm imagining as a wall covered in sticky-notes & newspaper clippings about AK & his schemes (not meant to be a bad thing, as a kid I wanted to be one of those private investigators with a room that looked like that)
If there is something (like the voting you came here to ask about) that you need to question/challenge me on, please just ask via PM or at least without voting it to the top of my comments and including so much more than the question itself.
I just asked a question. You have answered. I appreciate it.
I am relieved that at least some of the madness is acknowledged.
I never meant to "drag you" into anything, but feel it is important to note that you were dismissive of my even questioning this character.
Believe me, I wish he were gone from this whole scene.
Expect no more sticky notes from me, Kenny. But next time I say that I am concerned about something, don't just chalk it up to "jealousy" or some other bizarre accusation like that, okay?
Yes. I hope we can be at peace from here on out.
Now it is up to @jamesc to take control of his investment here.
Consider me a supporter of TSU, generally speaking.
And please give me your Discord handle (if you are alright with that) so I can contact you directly, and not clutter your posts.
Deal?
If I dragged you into anything inappropriately, I am sorry about that.
