What I’ve been telling everyone to fight against has happened. There’s still some counts going but my hopes aren’t very high.

Here’s what I think should happen next:

1) With racism being outspoken and rights being put on the line, do NOT be complacent. Do NOT “gray man”. Do NOT hide yourself and your feelings about all of this. Continue making music and continue wearing your shit to make your views known. I say this bc if you choose to hide, it’s harder to come back from it.

2) Organize, organize, organize.

3) Prepare accordingly. I’m going to finish my wildlife medicine courses and get EMS certified soon as I can. Get a firearm and get training. I know firearms aren’t ideal and they shouldn’t be taken lightly, but everyone who’s against you and your rights? Has one. Get one, get good. As always with prep: Two is One, One is None.

4) If you’re in an area where you can garden and grow your own food, try to get something going next season. If you can have chickens, try to get chickens. Good for eggs, and of course meat. Two is One, One is None.

5) Men, If you can do it? Try to get snipped sooner rather than later. It’s somewhat reversible and will only take you out for a couple days. Women? My wife told me she was going to get an IUD, but I know women’s bodies are different.

6) Learn to build and maintain “off the grid”. Get comfortable with tools and making your own things so you don’t have to purchase them. I’m getting some electrical certs soon and have experience building log cabins myself.

7) Fear is prevalent. In the face of fear and uncertainty, we must stand strong together, and we must fight together WHEN necessary. It won’t be pretty. It won’t be glorious. But when the machine grinds to a halt and the blood of our brothers and sisters has painted the truth that we will not back down, they will fear us.

We will not back down. We will not allow fear and anger and hate to rule us. We will prevail and the youth of our country will have better to grow into. I look forward to seeing all of you with me in the future, and I hope that when it hits, we can make it and stand strong together.
