Everyone's a critic
even a hypocritic.
Everyone is a critic, Myself included. One of my first substacks explained that I am a walking hypocrisy.

Hypocrisy seems to be all of humanity as a whole. Just to give a horrible and terrifying example: If I load up with a few clips, a rifle, walk into a local shopping area and shoot up a bunch of folks, Im a mass murderer. Now, If Im a president and I order tomahawk missiles to hit an elementary school in Iran, that kills about 180 people, mostly children, then Im a fearless leader with objectives and directives while looking out for the betterment of that country as well as the betterment of the world. The difference between the two in these scenarios is that I, If I were the mass murderer, would have to face consequences for my actions but I, If I were the president, will face no consequences for those actions. Things that make ya go Hmmm.
Lol, No, Im just a hypocrite. I dilly dally through life, noticing the wrongs of the world and write about them in a substack while having a few drinks to help me cope with the world, of which I am a part of, but really am doing nothing to help humanity.
Some will say “Be the change you want to see” and some will say “You gotta do more” and some will say “Everything is a psy-op and the war we face is a psychological war”. All of which is true, imo, but here I am writing another substack that changes nothing for the betterment of the world.
As far as being the change I want to see: 1st off, me not drinking anymore aint gonna help the world AT ALL. Im not making excuses for drinking but Im telling you if I didnt drink Id be way to aggressive in my actions to make changes in the world, for the good anyway. My actions might be used as an excuse to implement laws to prevent people like me from taking action AT ALL but “Desperate times call for desperate measures”, so its said. 2nd, and lastly on this point of me being the change I want to see is that Ive never started a business because I see the way employees are treated and the prices the owners charge for simple things. Im not sayin people, their time, experience and effort dont warrant payment but, for example, Tomorrow, I have to take my car into a mechanic and I know Im gonna get charged about $150/hr for services. There is no fuckin way in hell I could do this to anyone BUT I do understand why they charge so much.
They have to pay for the experience of the mechanic, tools, licensing, bonding, insurance, facility, parts and utilities. Costs a lotta money, I get it but DAMN! Im lucky if I make $20/hour so in order for me to pay for one hour of this places time I have to work a whole day! I could not and would never do that to anyone EVER! and thats why Im not a millionaire. I cant take advantage or step on others for personal gain. So theres me, in a nutshell, over 50yrs old, broke and livin paycheck to paycheck. Im not complaining as much as Im sayin Im being the change Id like to see.
And Ill finish this point with this little nugget: I used to deliver pizzas for a local pizzeria. Best pizza this side of the Cuyahoga River, called Congins. I made enough to get by back then and depended on tips for a living, as I do now, as a matter of fact. I watched as the owners busted their asses all frickin day, every day, and they only closed down 1 week a year for their vacation and I thought, man, if I gave up drinking and smoking for the whole year I could go on a vacation for 1 week outta the year. Hmm, work 51 weeks/year and get 1 week off or drink and smoke all year round. Um, Ill take a case of beer and 2 packs of smokes/week all year round as opposed to being miserable all year, pay for podcasting and a 1 week vacation. But thats just me, in a nutshell. Gonna be kinda hard to get me to change my thinking on that topic.
Anyway, Lets talk about people pushing you to do more. You gotta do more! Well, they might have good intentions and they may see potential you dont see but it also comes off as being very bossy and that dont set to well with me. I learned this the hard way when I joined the army back in ‘90. I dont do to well with followin orders lest I have a good reason why and the military dont want subordinates asking questions. I finished basic training and my 1st week of AIT (Advanced Infantry Training) and was part of an OSUT (One Station Unit Training) so I didnt have to leave my basic training battalion to go somewhere else for additional training once basic was done.
I saw enough of how the military worked in my little time there to know that life wasnt for me. From me gettin to the reception battalion and bein stamped “Declined” for airborne, which is why I joined, to gettin orders for deployment and being told “Get in line for your vaccinations depending on deployment”. I had no say as I was GI (Government Issue) and must obey all commands. Uh no! Granted, I was 11B, foot soldier, and was to be deployed to Panama and you need a malaria vax, but I didnt like the idea that I had no choice as to what would be put in my body no matter wtf I signed up for, but that shows my age and naivety.
In the end, I was exited, nay, released from the army, and have the DD214 to prove it, as an RE-3 and from my understanding, its not a dishonorable but general discharge. Also from my understanding it means “I was unfit for military life”, fittin since I wont be pushed into doin something I dont want to do from anyone, not even the mother of my children! I dont do good with just obeyin orders. I will do more when I want to do more Mmmkay?!
And on that note comes podcasting and psy-ops. From what I hear, everything is a psy-op. Modern warfare is mainly psychological now but seems to be gettin more and more kinetic. I mean Q even said that most people wont change unless theyre pushed to the precipice. Im paraphrasing of course but you get the idea and it doesnt matter if I think Im doin my part just writin a substack because someone else will say “Look at me! Im doin a podcast”. Well good on you! I may get there sometime in the near future but as for now, Im content makin videos for Rumble and writing substacks, voicing opinions about the world I see in front of me. I feel Im doin my part and you feel youre doin your part but in the end neither of us have the ability to send a tomahawk missile into an elementary school half way around the world so wtf are both of us really doing?
Everyone is a critic. Everyone judges and theres nothin wrong with that. If you ask me judging your environment and the people around you is primordial, a survival instinct. I dont have a problem with that. My problems lie facing my own insecurities and inaccuracies. I know Im a sinner and the bible tells me no matter what Im gonna die for being a sinner. Im ok with that. My problem is people tryin to push me into things I either dont want to do or am not ready to do. My problem is that as much as Id like everyone to have anything theyd ever want, Im not in control and my taxpayer money is being used by those actually in control to do the opposite of what I want done.
So the next time you wanna talk about someone bitchin and moanin, realize that youre bitchin and moanin about them bitchin and moanin. The next time you wanna say someone isnt doin enough, well, show them how to stop bombs being dropped on elementary schools half a world away. The next time you wanna talk about people fallin for a psy-op realize youre fallin for your own psy-op.
There are 4 things Id like to change, and I think it would actually change the world because it has to with our government and its domestic and foreign policies:
1: Abolish The Federal Reserve Act and any paperwork that alludes to the united states of America bein a corporation, up to and including The Organic Act of 1871.
Our monetary system is supposed to be controlled by Congress and The Treasury, not a foreign entity uncontrolled by “We the People”.
No more skirting around The Constitution.
You took an oath to uphold, defend and/or protect The Constitution so fuckin do it. If that means giving up your paychecks for your principles then do it. Quit just following orders.
Our country isnt gonna get back to basics from actions of people like me. This country will get back to basics when those that took their oaths actually abide their oaths! IMO!
2: Abolish The Patriot Act and any paperwork that circumvents The Constitution and the 4th Amendment. No more spyin on “We the People”. No more circumvention like FVEYs where the US govt will ask Britain to spy on us so they have a legal loophole to go around The Constitution. If any spyin is to be done it should be “We the People” spying on those we “elect” for public service! IMO!
3: Abolish The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act which allows our “Press” to propagandize us, in effect, lie to us, either by straight up lying, omitting information or embellishing information. This must stop and our fearless, all knowing but plausibly deniable 4d chess, 5d chess, 6th generation warfare with soon to be 6G tech implemented leader CAN NOT DO THIS WITH AN EXECUTIVE ORDER! This has to be done by Congress so why is there no push?
Maybe the world is waitin on me. Maybe my beer is to warm and my fence is to comfortable. Maybe my substack, will and prayers just aint enough. Well, if thats the case, Lets get together and push Congress the way they push us. Peaceably of course, because we see how well that works.
Who am I to judge? Im just sittin on the fence, bitchin and moanin, writin substacks and makin videos for Rumble thatll change the world overnight. I cant seem to find the button to launch missile attacks but maybe, just maybe, its out in the garage. Ill have a look.
Love ya,
Ed
PS: I had to come back. Forgot the 4th and most important point of what “We the People” need to change the world. I feel like such a heel. Forgive me GOD.
GET BACK TO GOD! If you dont believe in the Almighty, thats on you but Im sure you believe in some kind of morality. Im sure you foster the golden rule in your heart and mind: Do unto others as you would have done to you! I know most dont follow this ideology. Theyre of the “Me first and Me now” ideology but there may be some sittin on the fence about this and all Ill ask is that whenever you get into a situation that benefits you more than your opponent, please, put yourself in their shoes.
Maybe you dont see yourself as the aggressor in any given situation but you wont know unless you step back and take a second to assess the situation.


I explained why they bitch and moan.
It's called fear. Cowardice and feelings of lack.
Change the way you think and you will see things differently. Including yourself.
Some people worry about the things they cannot change.
Because they cannot change those things they do not feel they need to change anything.
Heck of a way to live. Some people do the work to better themselves. Some listen to GOD... particularly when HE tells them to put the effort into someone like you because you have a purpose... and you have free will.
Some play by GOD's rules and not the ruler of this matrix.
I will not play that game, thank you.
I freed myself from that game. You choose to stay and play.
I have given all I can.
You argue with me in my comment section on posts then conveniently delete them after you realize how foolish it all was... I do not delete. I say what I mean and mean what I say.
You think everything I say is all about little old you.
Nope.
There are a lot of people out there...
I try to teach people how not to be like that... and show them what it looks like from my end.
Doesn't look pretty does it?
I was not bitching and moaning I was calling those people out and showing them
how foolish they look. (that is called example. it is also called sarcasm)
Its not a pretty thing when people whine. That is what they look like.
I am healing, changing and being obedient to GOD.
That is why I tolerate some people longer than I should.
But you win. You admit you have an attachment.
You use it to attack those who love you enough to try and fight for you.
I do not need that or deserve it. Your anger is not at me...
its at what you refuse to work on and all that you cannot control.
I am not perfect, never said I was. But what I am is brave. Braver than most.
I admit my faults publicly and I work on them right in front of people until I get it right.
I will not coddle you or anyone. No one ever coddled me. I am glad they didn't.
It made me fight for the betterment of myself and not play the victim.
I truly pray that you see the truth and free yourself from the matrix.
I do want the best for you. I forgive you for trying to hurt me.
May GOD be with you and your family.
I love you.
From a distance...
