He was young, earnest, cheeks still shiny with that naïve petroleum of youth, and he told me with the candour of the desperate that he was ready to kill. Ready to blow something up. Ready to sacrifice himself on the altar of corruption, so long as someone handed him the address.
His problem wasn’t courage, it was Google Maps. He didn’t know where to shoot or even who first. And that’s where we are: an entire generation cocked and loaded with frustration, without a target worth the ammunition.
Violence, I said, is not the answer. Which is precisely why the great and sinister ‘They’ are trying to provoke it. They want war the way toddlers want sugar. They want division, chaos, brother against brother, neighbour grassing neighbour, all of us sniping across ideological trenches dug by government mandarins and corporate meat-packers.
London is in a slow-motion nervous breakdown, the UK playing out its gothic opera of decline, Canada spiralling politely downwards, Washington and Los Angeles federalised like bad theme parks.
Pick a city, any city, and watch it curdle.
We are fed up. Beyond fed up. The stomach lining is gone, the acid is eating the ribs. And yet….what to do? The creator, if you believe in such a thing, surely didn’t leave us naked and empty-handed, waiting to be chewed up by Davos and Deloitte.
There are always tools at hand. A famine looms? Grow your own potatoes. A plague of Big Pharma? Brew up dandelion tinctures and elderflower teas and laugh in the face of Rockefeller’s ghost.
The surveillance state? Thwart it with Linux, with clunky, un-Google phones that look like Soviet calculators. The central bank’s digital shackles? Pay your debts in silver, seeds, and carrots pulled from the back garden. There’s a kind of defiant romance in it: rebels with spades instead of bombs.
But spades only get you so far. What really thrills our narrator is not the potato patch but The Law. Not Westminster’s bloated bureaucracy, not the legal spaghetti of statutes and codes, but capital-L Law: the divine, universal, natural operating system that supposedly sits above all man-made fictions.
We have, so the pitch goes, been blinded to our birthright by word games, fogged up in jargon, cowed by judges in silly wigs. The maze is a trick, the court a pantomime, the law library a con. Step out of it, remember the natural order, and suddenly you’re not a defendant, you’re a sovereign being in tune with the cosmos.
It’s all very Matrix-meets-Magna Carta. And, in the grand tradition of this sort of revelation, there is of course a course.
A programme. A series of videos. “Law for Mankind,” seven bite-sized sermons that promise to untangle the straw man, peel back the myths, and usher you into freedom. The instructors are Greg and John who unpick the fraud of centuries.
You don’t even need to spend years wading through the UCC like Dickensian sewage. Ten minutes a pop and voilà, you’re a Freeman of the Universe.
It’s easy to sneer, but there’s also something oddly touching in the enthusiasm. Our world is sagging under the weight of corruption and incompetence; faith in institutions is so threadbare it wouldn’t line a hamster cage.
Into that vacuum rush these alternative gospels: not politics, not guns, but lettuce patches, silver coins, and cosmic jurisprudence.
And yet there is solace here. A narrative, a shape, a way of grabbing the frayed ends of a collapsing society and weaving them into something that feels like agency. “Live by The Law,” they say, “and you will be protected by God, by Nature, by the Universe.”
It’s magical thinking with homework assignments. But maybe magical thinking is what we have left.
So the young man, itching to kill, is pointed instead towards tomatoes, dandelions, Linux kernels, and a seven-lesson video series. It may not topple empires, but it might just save him from becoming another grim footnote in the cycle of futile violence.
And if you’re going to put your faith in something, why not The Law, with its capital L? It has a nicer ring to it than “Department of Just Ice,” and it comes with a vegetable garden.
If you resonate with anything written above, this is for you. Simply register (it’s free) and the episodes will become available to you. For many the results have been empowering. It grants the listener access to exclusive, reliable, and updated information, and valuable opportunities unavailable to those who don’t.
