CG: What exactly IS self-determination?

JE: “self-de·ter·mi·na·tion, noun, the process by which a country determines its own statehood and forms its own allegiances and government.

‘the changes cannot be made until the country’s right to self-determination is recognized’ the process by which a person controls their own life.”

I equate it to self-governance.

CG: FASCINATING I like it.

JE: Wanted to thank you for your involvement in the SDA group. What do you think of the group now?

CG: Hmmm, After some interactions, I determined there was too much State for me and so while I haven’t left I did unsubscribe. I don’t have time to battle on Facebook right now, I’m focusing my energies and small amount of spare time on campaign support.

JE: Yes, we started the group… but it has taken on a life of its own.

CG: Yeah. Maybe newcomers who have yet to grasp the idea of Liberty 🤷‍♀️

JE: I don’t know what to do about it.

CG: LOL! Me either that’s why I just walked away. Indoctrination is hard to break.

JE: Part of me wants to struggle, part of me is just too tired…

CG: Exactly what I was about to say. I don’t have the energy to deal with that right now. Maybe after the election.

JE: Hoping if we have enough anti-statists it would sort itself out.

CG: Maybe?

JE: I actually encourage the statists to post to start a discussion. But it seems to be backfiring.

CG: I’ll look into it more when there aren’t 100 campaign-related things… Debating makes me tired. I prefer to encourage those who are becoming disillusioned.
