Freedom is another word for choice or control but freedom, responsibility and liability all three go hand in hand in hand. You can't have any one of them without having all three.
Several smaller counties in have become 'constitutional counties' where the the Sheriffs have vowed to only enforce laws that are constitutional. We need more of this!
I live in a county like that but it’s in a blue state. So, I still want to leave the state. The next things county’s need to do is secure the ability to garden and farm forever and no government involvement
I have done quite a lot the last two years, such as moved out from the city to the countryside where I bought an old farm, I have now chickens who lay eggs - witch is capital - have my own potatoes, chipping wood from my own forest and so on. Very interesting to learn about all this because it’s not something I ever have done before. And those eggs, potatoes, strawberries, carrots are a lot, read it again, a lot better than the stuff I could buy in the store. Life is just getting better and better, and all that hard work is very good exercise!
Its a great topic to raise. Freedom for me is ability to eat, live safely in my home and not be poisoned by what I consume. It's so different for each of us.
ONE HUNDRED PERCENT AGREE with everything you just said!!! We're in New Zealand and about to try and leave a smallish 'shitty' ourselves... we may be able to achieve something close to what you have, we're so grateful for your expertise, knowledge and the fact you share so much of it with us. These days there are so few people out there who aren't afraid to say it like it is. We are awake, and our mindsets have changed exponentially (especially over the past couple of years) because of what we've seen. Everything has changed, the day our own church slammed the door in our faces because of our family's medical choices was the day we saw that NOTHING but God Himself can be depended upon. Thanks again Curtis.

@@lifebeingfreeMany are clueless its unfortunate for them. When SHTF they will be in shock we are still in the beginning stages of this satanic agenda. God Bless you.
I can think about a concept or idea for days and think I have it figured out but then when I discuss it with someone it's like they immediately see it from a different point of view and bring up things I didn't even consider. This is why it is so important to talk to people.
I can say most of the smaller towns i have seen are growing faster now and coming back to life again where ruins once stood from past generations. Building up your social circle opens doors you never knew were open.
I had another spin on this thought a couple days ago- haven't fully thought through it yet, but I'm thinking something like- Liberty is the degree to which you are restrained from acting. (Complete liberty would be no restraint at all) And freedom is the degree to which you are capable of acting.
Very nicely explaned Curtis. I can tell you, that at almost 70, this way of thinking/acting has more then "paid" off now. My mom could never understand me, as I was always generous with people, not with money but with time and support in their dream/path of life.
Curtis, started off by watching some of your Microgreen and Urban Farmer videos tonight in the U.K. Then came across this!! You are of one of us. A Pureblood and totally Awake! Hallelujah! Going to be telling all my fellow freedom fighters to subscribe. You are spot on with so much! We must network locally and build from that level. Only way we shall succeed!

Isn’t it amazing when we can recognize how off our former beliefs were. Seeing through the charade is freedom. Now figuring out how to move forward with this new knowledge is a whole new ball game.... And here we are 💞
Love the content! Started following you all the way back to the Urban Farmer. Been away for a bit. Glad to be back. Thanks for standing up for freedom. Speaking the truth and words of wisdom.
Great video Curtis! Totally agree! I saw you and JM in Spokane, WA about 5 years ago and I was fortunate enough to sit through the open discussion where you had the whole auditorium cheering when you called out the city planners in the room on how their regulation is the problem! Love your work!
@@offgridcurtisstone lol, mustve been good.... they have disturbed our sleep so much so tables turning is a wonderful thing to see. God bless you, family, home, garden, ministry. Love from The People's Republic of Vancouver Island
Pushing 70 and I just absolutely am tickled by the last 40 minutes. Amazed by the scarcity comments. I wrote down all five and stuck them to my forehead. You just killed it sir! BLESSINGS to your family!
this dude has a lifetime of knowledge.....no doubt he's read over 500-1000 books.....his life's knowledge and social / political awareness is bullet-proof....he use to be a hard-core leftist - literally hung out with ANTIFA trash, which is something else......but he saw the light........creating your own off-grid homestead takes so much physical, mental, financial aptitude and will.....he's done extremely well....like you said, we should all take notes
Thank you for sharing. I grew up as the oldest of 3 with a single mom in America and the idea if scarcity is all I knew up until about 5 years ago. Its amazing to have my mind set free, but I am working through the practicality of it all. I will keep going at it little by little. Our family is getting there.
Thank you, Curtis. Mindset is key. It’s so hard to prioritize my life with so much to do on my 2 acres in Bigfork mt, build community for myself, and tend to extended family here. Sigh… time is precious. Freedom is accomplishment and attainment of goals, finishing tasks. Good vibes with humans and safe fencing for animals. Water freedom is key. I’m not there yet, except I’m practicing the idea of a “foot of mulch in the soil for every month without rain”. At least then the plants are free. I’m doing it alone, year 2, freedom=helping hands, (8forms of capital is great!).
Great to hear from you Kelly. Work on your mindset can be incorporated into everything you do. Simply just choose to keep your frequency high by your thoughts.
My Husband and I just found your videos. We live in the US. We left the Schitty 3 years ago. Bought some acreage far out in. the country. and have been working hard to be self sufficient . We haven't reached all of our goals quite yet. We may be late in the game, but figured it's never too late to start. Thank you for your videos.. We've subscribed and very much look forward to watching them🦋
I would express the perquisites to freedom in just 3 simpler terms: 1. Infrastructure 2. Tools & 3. Skills with these in place one can choice to interact with the mainstream intentionally and begin the work of true freedom that comes from transcending the prisons we hold ourselves within.
The deep philosophies that you communicated in this video just blow my mind. I cannot believe how deep and how intuitive you are. You are one of the very, very few I have met in my 65 years in this life who has a truly balanced, enlightened, and sane viewpoint on life and the world, and how one moves through it. Such a privilege to see this. So glad you are there doing what you do, despite the fact that you are far, far from the most popular on the homesteading subject. Carry on, dear sir. Carry on!
Thats a very good analogy Curtis...and I can see your right....most people dont want to be free according to mindset,location,responsibility,knowledge,truth ...etc...but im willing to have faith in anyone willing to try.....God bless Curtis and family.
It's so nice to see you speaking out about some of this stuff on such a big platform. It seems many in the off-grid community come from the green, sustainability, climate change, part of the agenda/psyop. So this is very refreshing!
@@offgridcurtisstone Yeah me too, the covid plandemic was my wake up, we are all on our own journey and that's a beautiful thing. Appreciate your courage and living by example ❤️
This video got me motivated to go and make a little progress on my garden area. I paused the video, went and got a little work done until it started to rain so now I am back building some more motivation...Thanks Curtis
Good thoughts and things to think about. Tried getting family on board, didn't get anywhere so I'm doing little things here and there on my property on my own. I watch a lot of videos for encouragement, information, and ideas.
One thing I learned from working in the corporate world is that corporations care NOTHING for the human individual. All corporate employees are completely indispensable. And everything corporations create or sell can be dispensed with at any time, regardless of benefits to humanity. It's ALL about the bottom line. And interestingly enough, corporations are now recognized as having the same rights as a human being.
I stopped in a lay-by today on the way to my office … there was a very large oak tree absolutely laden with acorns. On the ground there were hundreds and hundreds. In the back of my car I had an empty sack used for holding 10kg Wood Pellets (About 20 lbs) I filled the sack with acorns and I’m going to plant and grow them on I’m not sure how many there are yet but tomorrow I’m going to weigh and count them there is probably 2000 … imagine that …..a whole forest in a 10kg sack…
This is another great reference for me as my boyfriend and I are embarking to look for our homestead property in middle Tennessee. I was living on a homestead in Cheatham county and totally agree with the value of social capital. I'm going to miss my friends and community around Ashland City, TN including the family farms I've worked on to gain Knowledge and skills. I will find a new community and make strong connections wherever we shall land. Here's to 2024! Thank you Curtis again for sharing your gift of transferring knowledge and sharing insight to guide us.
I had been watching you 5 years ago when I was big into microgreens as I was in a medium size city but had basement space to grow. I had since moved and stopped watching you. Found you again recently in the last couple weeks. After watching this video you can count me in as a consistent viewer again. I hope one day we could meet and discuss topics like this stuff in this video and some other things
Thank you Curtis!!! You actually made me feel better about how I’ve progressed thru life!!! Long story short, thru a series of decisions, Ive ended up debt free with 35 acres, a nice home and shop in north Idaho. Im 72 and female, but continue to expand my freedom with ever larger gardens and now fencing my acreage to run cows and maybe goats. Can’t decide what I’ll do after that, but I’ll think of something 😂🤗
Your firm spirit, clear thinking, accurate language, unified expression, smooth and natural are remarkable. The video photography /editing are also great done.🙏
In the Quran, it says that offering one kernel of corn in service of the Creator (to help others for example) will lead the Creator to bless you with 7 ears of corn, with each ear of corn possessing hundreds more kernel. So you are right Curtis, gratitude and abundance, by being thankful to the Creator. Also yes to abolishing interest/ usury! In Islamic teachings, usury is a form of exploitation. Let's all love one another and take good care of each other.
the definition of freedom is choice, the more choices you have the more freedom you have, we as in canada don't have that much freedom, limited with choice, i do agree that this country is awesome and the people are great, i love big city living and i also love camping in the woods then you meet some other group just chilling and we hang out and they are great, the random good people you meet in the middle of the woods is great
still following you curtis, yes apparently your job is to give a lot of us tools to fight the corrupt instead of being paralyzed/ confused. Please dont start putting time limits on your vlogs just let her rip, some of us need the gravy. still stuck in LA Cali, thanks for truth.
you should be a teacher which you already are but a teacher in high school not just online, i have learned so much from you myself i'm sure many have, imagine teacher in high school you would blow their minds and they will forever remember
Totally agree about state of decline, we are thinking ahead, and working on off grid / we have our own water now with a small tank which is so awesome as New Zealand water is very polluted by nitrogen from dairy farming, we are now working on power (we have electric cars/hybrids), I have quail, chooks, gardens, (in suburbs ) we cook a lot from scratch, we are also going to build a tiny house for both our teenagers....I found with self-sufficiency that if you work on one thing at a time, get that right, then build the next, you get there and impletement those changes into your life
Working on my Intimacy with my Heavenly FATHER , started a garden and getting knowledge on where should I move or should I move I am a newly widow unfortunately and listening to you and other homesteaders thinking on what is my next move
I talked of corporate communism back in the 80s! People wrote me off as a kook at the time - yet you have had the same observation. THANK YOU for that piece of validation.
Thank you for your great commentary. If you don't know of it, the Ringing Cedars series is wonderful! One of the core concepts is about connecting to God's abundance and achieving sovereignty through a Kin's Domain (Kingdom). Another is about the importance of our conscious awareness and the role the plants and animals in our home garden, our Space of Love, have.
curtis, you are a living treasure. i caught the tail end of thy homestead search course on grand theft world. GREAT to know you are alive and continuing to offer gold to our world.. cheers
Love the info you share... I meditate daily... I learn daily... and I work on my homestead and tend my livestock... to me this is preparing for the future with food....
You articulated it pretty well. I was trying to come up with this the other day myself, mindset was at the top of my list too. I was also kind of lumping in freedom with true happiness and had points of doing what you were born to do irrelevant of money and materialism and cultural mind boxes, coming into your true purpose living positively and and making your dreams a reality now as i believe when doing so everything you need will be provided in one way or the other from the universe, it wants you to succeed when your doing what you are meant to do.
You have a thorough understanding and I appreciate you speaking out. It's refreshing to see someone piece it together and not go insane. I'm from Canada but currently in a small Laos village. Trying to move towards a sustainable life.
I recall while building an AD SEG facility at one of our local prisons here in the no-longer-free state of California, having a discussion with one of the inmates who had spent time in AD SEG or solitary confinement, who for the uninitiated is designed to break the human spirit. He commented to me that in solitary most break. They break...mentally, physically. That's the point of AD-SEG. It's polite torture. He finished with, "Most break, but some just become stronger.". These psycopaths that run the world are creating their worst enemy. Their repressive policies are creating a class that will NEVER submit. The flaw in their plan is that they can NEVER allow dissent, yet they are creating the dissenters. Interesting paradox.
I do not disagree with anything you have said here in this post, however, I have been wondering if we can ever truly reach "self-reliance" (AKA: "Freedom"). I am completely steeped in trying to build infrastructure on my property. I'm not living there 100% so that makes it harder. But, nonetheless, I am moving toward independence from the "system". I am often plagued within the thought that there is not a definitive freedom to be had. As I see it, we will always have to interact with the matrix. Can we ever truly escape the matrix? I know, the purists believe we can batter and trade for everything, but I'm not sure that can be a reality unless the entire matrix crashes and we are FORCED to figure it out on our own just as the early pioneers did. Anyway, no point here, just my own mental riff. Thanks!
I think the old mountain men were free. My feeling is there are still mountain men. My next thought is all the homeless people by choice are free. Unless they have a drug habit they are free. No taxes. No rules. If you live in the woods not paying taxes. Not using any government utilities then you are free.
Very good idea 💡😀 I'm just trying to survive here... It's hard to make the improvements I want as quickly as I want, but I'm in complete agreement with you!!!
Love that shirt. The term always used by the green catastrophists brigade is that there is a “Consensus” amongst the worlds scientists when it suits their narrative. But Consensus only exists in politics, not science.
Curtis you got my vote. if we only understood that nothing is free and there is a cost incurred in everything we posses. Those costs are more relevant on issues of ideas, non thing , things which shape our lives. Your 100 % on target and need to be understood by our society as a whole. Thanks. As an aside there are many RUclipsrs touting the same message. We need to get this message across to the masses else we slip into abise of mediocrity .
Your probably one of a few people I've found on YT that has connected the dots on the Mark of the Beast. I imagine more would connect the dots if they believed the Bible but they either don't or are completely ignorant of what it says. I'm glad to see someone else is using their brain and connecting dots.
Good thoughts! I was listening while outdoors in the pasture. And I so love the shirt you’re wearing...I hope to order one, as this issue is a pet-peeve of mine❤
Love this long format riffing. I agree about making your voice heard for small town politics. I stay out of politics as much as I can, but when you live in a small town, often silence is met with ideologies that reflect big cities, so you have to speak up. Small down values don't have to die with the old generation, the folks moving to small towns have to learn to speak up and represent the values that lured them there in the first place, or they will be lost with the old timers and all the city folk who are just escaping the shitties to hide and don't do anything or speak up ... those values will be lost.
The first step for those who are free is to make sure their family, neighbors & community do not make decsions from fear. That is why we made a program for that.
You bring up several intetesting points. In my own case, I had the mindset and SOME knowledge, but in several cases lacked understanding of how to INTERPRET the data I had. And so while I had knowledge and the mindset, I acted on the wrong premise because my interpretation of that knowledge was flawed. THAT has been my biggest hinderance in moving ahead. That, along with in some situations not knowing how/where to get the reliable data.
Right now each and every one of us must make a decision. You need to make a choice, and you need to make it soon. Do you want to be free? Or do do you want to be bound to the whims of the bank/government? Our choice simply boils down to this: Freedom? Or phone? You can't have both right now. Maybe later we can negotiate those Terms of Services and Agreements. The current legal language doesn't provide any protections for us. In fact, those ToS&A contracts force us to forfeit our 1st, 4th, and 5th Amendment Rights. Those contracts we have agreed to are held by business entities that work directly for/with the government. Meaning we have given the government permission to legally violate our rights. All of these tech and telecom companies hold massive government contracts to collect and store as much of our data as they possibly can. They work directly with/for the government. You can't turn the power off on the new phones for a reason. Your phone is already monitoring you 24/7, and it's reporting everything it can sense to the nearest cell tower every few seconds. Our only out is ditching the (prison) cellphone and cancelling the (prison) cellular contracts. Right now, there isn't any existing legal language preventing you from opting out of the contract(s). At least none that I have found yet. That doesn't mean they won't insert a clause that says something along the lines of "you agree to rescind/forfeit/give up the right to opt out forevermore" in the future Since all of this is factual and true, it comes down to this: Freedom (no phone). Or Slavery (because of the phone). If they get to the rollout stage of the CBDC Social Credit System it will be Game Over. If you have a working mobile device and it is connected to the cellular network when they roll out the CBDC System, you will be locked into the grid. Freedom? Or phone? It's that simple. We are all depending on each other to make the right choice, and make that choice quickly. We are running out of time. You know what you need to do. Just do it. And tell EVERYONE to do the same.
@ herbgreen9728* I was wondering... How would we be able to stay connected to distant family and friends without a phone if there was an Emergency in the family? Phones are used to make contact with people. They used to pen letters... I have always written letters, and still do. But, nobody writes back because they can just pick up the phone. I was going to go back to a landline phone and found out that they are now connected through the internet ! We don't have a Pony Express...🤔 . Maybe If things get worse and we end up having to live without the internet and electricity, there will be again. Imagine what people would do if all of a sudden our whole Grid went down... Most would have no experience or knowledge on how to deal with it. I seriously worry about people who are dependent on the Government in these large Cities 😢 I suppose it would come down to survival of the fittest minds.
skip to 24:38 if you're ACTIVATED ("awake" just isn't good enough anymore, especially if you're sub 40 years old). WEF has already openly acknowledged that "there will be those that do not come along" or the left behind crew...
You are tapped in spiritually Curtis, thanks u for this video. Will be looking into the capital video as well. I have learned something new today. As a 32 year old soon to be divorced single mother. This info all touched home for me and for creating and manifesting an enriched future
for anyone that don't understand this video or to kick this process fast, i suggest to go on a 40 day retreat no phone, no food, no thoughts in a peaceful place ALONE
Just found your channel, wow! Living in Victoria Australia, we sure are getting hammered by Dictator Dan(Parasite/Controller/Elite's puppet), watching your videos, listening to you and your frame of mind, it's super refreshing, some of us understand what's been going on, thank you ☺️
Spirit leads the mind which leads the body Do not attempt to fix health issues if your mental state is poor Do not attempt to fix your mental state if your spirit isn't fed Begin at the top and it all flows from there. Build your relationship with God. Many of you do not even know what this means or how to do it. Others will join a Church and be warned, many modern church's have lost their way and will not help you. Your relationship with God is a personal thing. Begin by setting aside time every day to Pray. To atheists, pray. It's doesn't matter if you reject God, he doesn't reject you. So why should Atheists trust my advice? Because think on it. By praying you are concentrating your mind on what matters to you. You are being thankful for all you have. You are thinking of concerns , of others. you are gaining perspective in life by praying The next step is to learn to listen to God. It is a very real phenomenon. Everyone has an inner voice. Christians call this the Holy spirit. Religious or not, it doesn't matter. You have an entity speaking to you if you'd only listen. This entity. God/Holy spirit/Inner voice is 100% on your side. Is 100% honest. Has a perspective you cannot gain yourself. So learn to quiet your mind and hear and follow your connection to God. Your spirit will flourish with these two steps and from there your mental, then physical states will improve.
Idea on changing geography there: Pace out these talks when and where the ground is wet and soft to press in a vernal frog pond if they are in the area and you get the insects there to feed them. It may take a while but you're buying time just by being where you are. 😊 Thanks Curtis.
Point taken. Andrew Tate talked about remedy online/in public. They simply threw him in prison with no charges. I am curious to see if he is now a transformed man since his release. Did they break him?
Curtis- I have followed you (off and on) for years - from the Urban farmer, to where you are now. I see that our philosophies have converged a bit. You have come a little closer to where I was on some points, and I have found some of your thoughts quite enlightening. One of these days, when I can escape some of the rat race, I hope to meet you in person. I think that it would be interesting to swap stories.
Holy fuk Curtis!! To think I set about to grow micro greens and along the way found kindred spirit! Thanks for speaking the truth...and for urban farmer content as well.

Freedom requires embracing responsibilities .
Perfectly said
Change mindset ... getting more time with Creator to know intimately His unconditional love and His Mind will give personal direction to other 4 ....
Exactly
Surely, a person’s morality should serve he or she, and dictate one’s alignment.
Also freedom isn’t free someone has to put in the work for that freedom.
I can say most of the smaller towns i have seen are growing faster now and coming back to life again where ruins once stood from past generations. Building up your social circle opens doors you never knew were open.
Large groups of people living together brings democrats which destroys freedom.
LIBERTY is *the ability* to make a choice.
FREEDOM is *how much power* a person has to act on their choice.

Sigh… time is precious. Freedom is accomplishment and attainment of goals, finishing tasks. Good vibes with humans and safe fencing for animals. Water freedom is key. I’m not there yet, except I’m practicing the idea of a “foot of mulch in the soil for every month without rain”. At least then the plants are free. I’m doing it alone, year 2, freedom=helping hands, (8forms of capital is great!).
Great to hear from you Kelly. Work on your mindset can be incorporated into everything you do. Simply just choose to keep your frequency high by your thoughts.
Thanks for your comment. I'm now on my own too and I needed to see there's someone else out there doing it.
I lived in Canada in 1989, soooo different. Kudos to anyone that has survived this without jabbing themselves and drinking the kool aid.
Loved the concepts of real freedom and engaging in our local community! Brilliant idea about the city councils and local politics👍
My Husband and I just found your videos. We live in the US. We left the Schitty 3 years ago. Bought some acreage far out in. the country. and have been working hard to be self sufficient . We haven't reached all of our goals quite yet. We may be late in the game, but figured it's never too late to start. Thank you for your videos.. We've subscribed and very much look forward to watching them🦋
I would express the perquisites to freedom in just 3 simpler terms: 1. Infrastructure 2. Tools & 3. Skills with these in place one can choice to interact with the mainstream intentionally and begin the work of true freedom that comes from transcending the prisons we hold ourselves within.
The deep philosophies that you communicated in this video just blow my mind. I cannot believe how deep and how intuitive you are. You are one of the very, very few I have met in my 65 years in this life who has a truly balanced, enlightened, and sane viewpoint on life and the world, and how one moves through it. Such a privilege to see this. So glad you are there doing what you do, despite the fact that you are far, far from the most popular on the homesteading subject. Carry on, dear sir. Carry on!
Thank you sir.
Thats a very good analogy Curtis...and I can see your right....most people dont want to be free according to mindset,location,responsibility,knowledge,truth ...etc...but im willing to have faith in anyone willing to try.....God bless Curtis and family.
Nice T-shirt! I've just read Dean Radin's book "Real Magic" about modern type of inquisition called "science".
It's so nice to see you speaking out about some of this stuff on such a big platform. It seems many in the off-grid community come from the green, sustainability, climate change, part of the agenda/psyop.
So this is very refreshing!
Thank you. I was there too, I just woke up years ago.
@@offgridcurtisstone Yeah me too, the covid plandemic was my wake up, we are all on our own journey and that's a beautiful thing.
Appreciate your courage and living by example ❤️
This video got me motivated to go and make a little progress on my garden area. I paused the video, went and got a little work done until it started to rain so now I am back building some more motivation...Thanks Curtis
Good thoughts and things to think about. Tried getting family on board, didn't get anywhere so I'm doing little things here and there on my property on my own. I watch a lot of videos for encouragement, information, and ideas.
Please consider building a rain harvesting roof over your water tanks. One year you may have less snowfall or rain. It all helps.
20 inches of rain per year. Better catching snow melt and rain off the land with ditches and ponds, which is what we're doing.
@@offgridcurtisstone They saw later yesterday that you had also mentioned that you had something like a 40,000 gallon cistern so I stand corrected
We have 16,000 litres up hill for gravity feed then another 40,000 litres for the cabins domestic water
Curtis, I've followed you for a long time, appreciate your bravery in telling the truth, Keep the faith man, your not alone!
One thing I learned from working in the corporate world is that corporations care NOTHING for the human individual. All corporate employees are completely indispensable. And everything corporations create or sell can be dispensed with at any time, regardless of benefits to humanity. It's ALL about the bottom line. And interestingly enough, corporations are now recognized as having the same rights as a human being.
I stopped in a lay-by today on the way to my office … there was a very large oak tree absolutely laden with acorns. On the ground there were hundreds and hundreds. In the back of my car I had an empty sack used for holding 10kg Wood Pellets (About 20 lbs) I filled the sack with acorns and I’m going to plant and grow them on I’m not sure how many there are yet but tomorrow I’m going to weigh and count them there is probably 2000 … imagine that …..a whole forest in a 10kg sack…
Your an inspiration ! Am just starting my journey of leaving the Matrix at 53 !
Im 47 and having a more difficult time then I had anticipated. What are you doing at 53 to make it happen? Do tell!
This is another great reference for me as my boyfriend and I are embarking to look for our homestead property in middle Tennessee. I was living on a homestead in Cheatham county and totally agree with the value of social capital. I'm going to miss my friends and community around Ashland City, TN including the family farms I've worked on to gain Knowledge and skills. I will find a new community and make strong connections wherever we shall land. Here's to 2024! Thank you Curtis again for sharing your gift of transferring knowledge and sharing insight to guide us.
I had been watching you 5 years ago when I was big into microgreens as I was in a medium size city but had basement space to grow. I had since moved and stopped watching you. Found you again recently in the last couple weeks. After watching this video you can count me in as a consistent viewer again. I hope one day we could meet and discuss topics like this stuff in this video and some other things
Thank you Curtis!!! You actually made me feel better about how I’ve progressed thru life!!! Long story short, thru a series of decisions, Ive ended up debt free with 35 acres, a nice home and shop in north Idaho. Im 72 and female, but continue to expand my freedom with ever larger gardens and now fencing my acreage to run cows and maybe goats. Can’t decide what I’ll do after that, but I’ll think of something 😂🤗
PS, you’re one of the smartest people I know and have watched you for years!
Your firm spirit, clear thinking, accurate language, unified expression, smooth and natural are remarkable. The video photography /editing are also great done.🙏
In the Quran, it says that offering one kernel of corn in service of the Creator (to help others for example) will lead the Creator to bless you with 7 ears of corn, with each ear of corn possessing hundreds more kernel. So you are right Curtis, gratitude and abundance, by being thankful to the Creator. Also yes to abolishing interest/ usury! In Islamic teachings, usury is a form of exploitation. Let's all love one another and take good care of each other.
the definition of freedom is choice, the more choices you have the more freedom you have, we as in canada don't have that much freedom, limited with choice, i do agree that this country is awesome and the people are great, i love big city living and i also love camping in the woods then you meet some other group just chilling and we hang out and they are great, the random good people you meet in the middle of the woods is great
still following you curtis, yes apparently your job is to give a lot of us tools to fight the corrupt instead of being paralyzed/ confused. Please dont start putting time limits on your vlogs just let her rip, some of us need the gravy. still stuck in LA Cali, thanks for truth.
you should be a teacher which you already are but a teacher in high school not just online, i have learned so much from you myself i'm sure many have, imagine teacher in high school you would blow their minds and they will forever remember
Curtis would never be allowed into a public school (IMO). I do hope homeschoolers are using some of his talks though.
Abolish public education.
Schooling is the diametrical opposite of education.
Totally agree about state of decline, we are thinking ahead, and working on off grid / we have our own water now with a small tank which is so awesome as New Zealand water is very polluted by nitrogen from dairy farming, we are now working on power (we have electric cars/hybrids), I have quail, chooks, gardens, (in suburbs ) we cook a lot from scratch, we are also going to build a tiny house for both our teenagers....I found with self-sufficiency that if you work on one thing at a time, get that right, then build the next, you get there and impletement those changes into your life
Working on my Intimacy with my Heavenly FATHER , started a garden and getting knowledge on where should I move or should I move I am a newly widow unfortunately and listening to you and other homesteaders thinking on what is my next move
I'm a scientist and I LOVE your t-shirt. Dr. F is the king of this crap. Science has been corrupted.
I talked of corporate communism back in the 80s! People wrote me off as a kook at the time - yet you have had the same observation. THANK YOU for that piece of validation.
Thank you for your great commentary.
If you don't know of it, the Ringing Cedars series is wonderful!
One of the core concepts is about connecting to God's abundance and achieving sovereignty through a Kin's Domain (Kingdom).
Another is about the importance of our conscious awareness and the role the plants and animals in our home garden, our Space of Love, have.
Accuracy , parasite class...... I’ll agree 100%. Activated biochar on all grow areas! Amen brother.👍
curtis, you are a living treasure. i caught the tail end of thy homestead search course on grand theft world. GREAT to know you are alive and continuing to offer gold to our world.. cheers
Thanks Curtis I enjoyed hearing your perspective. I live in the state of Tennessee USA and feel very similarly to you. Take care of yourself okay?
Love the info you share... I meditate daily... I learn daily... and I work on my homestead and tend my livestock... to me this is preparing for the future with food....
You articulated it pretty well. I was trying to come up with this the other day myself, mindset was at the top of my list too. I was also kind of lumping in freedom with true happiness and had points of doing what you were born to do irrelevant of money and materialism and cultural mind boxes, coming into your true purpose living positively and and making your dreams a reality now as i believe when doing so everything you need will be provided in one way or the other from the universe, it wants you to succeed when your doing what you are meant to do.
You have a thorough understanding and I appreciate you speaking out. It's refreshing to see someone piece it together and not go insane.
I'm from Canada but currently in a small Laos village. Trying to move towards a sustainable life.
Thanks Curtis, what a great share. Just what I needed to hear, inspirational in this time of unknown, anxiety and repeating of the past.
I recall while building an AD SEG facility at one of our local prisons here in the no-longer-free state of California, having a discussion with one of the inmates who had spent time in AD SEG or solitary confinement, who for the uninitiated is designed to break the human spirit.
He commented to me that in solitary most break. They break...mentally, physically. That's the point of AD-SEG. It's polite torture.
He finished with, "Most break, but some just become stronger.".
These psycopaths that run the world are creating their worst enemy. Their repressive policies are creating a class that will NEVER submit. The flaw in their plan is that they can NEVER allow dissent, yet they are creating the dissenters.
Interesting paradox.
Mate you are a delight to listen to, you think exactly like me thank you for making more people aware and to opening there eyes thanks for sharing
Curtis, LOVE the observations and wisdom you bring to the table. If you travel to Washington State, lunch is on me.
First of all, before I'll watch, we are on the same page. Thank you!
I do not disagree with anything you have said here in this post, however, I have been wondering if we can ever truly reach "self-reliance" (AKA: "Freedom"). I am completely steeped in trying to build infrastructure on my property. I'm not living there 100% so that makes it harder. But, nonetheless, I am moving toward independence from the "system". I am often plagued within the thought that there is not a definitive freedom to be had. As I see it, we will always have to interact with the matrix. Can we ever truly escape the matrix? I know, the purists believe we can batter and trade for everything, but I'm not sure that can be a reality unless the entire matrix crashes and we are FORCED to figure it out on our own just as the early pioneers did. Anyway, no point here, just my own mental riff. Thanks!
I think the old mountain men were free. My feeling is there are still mountain men. My next thought is all the homeless people by choice are free. Unless they have a drug habit they are free. No taxes. No rules. If you live in the woods not paying taxes. Not using any government utilities then you are free.
The most inspiring talk I heard in months. Thanks and very motivating!
I think you are completely correct.
Very good idea 💡😀
I'm just trying to survive here... It's hard to make the improvements I want as quickly as I want, but I'm in complete agreement with you!!!
Love that shirt. The term always used by the green catastrophists brigade is that there is a “Consensus” amongst the worlds scientists when it suits their narrative. But Consensus only exists in politics, not science.
Love your shirt. Not to mention the ones swimming with the fishies.
Curtis you got my vote. if we only understood that nothing is free and there is a cost incurred in everything we posses. Those costs are more relevant on issues of ideas, non thing , things which shape our lives. Your 100 % on target and need to be understood by our society as a whole. Thanks. As an aside there are many RUclipsrs touting the same message. We need to get this message across to the masses else we slip into abise of mediocrity .
I put on a rain water system, and it’s the best water I’ve ever had. And it’s much cheaper overall
Your probably one of a few people I've found on YT that has connected the dots on the Mark of the Beast. I imagine more would connect the dots if they believed the Bible but they either don't or are completely ignorant of what it says. I'm glad to see someone else is using their brain and connecting dots.
Good thoughts! I was listening while outdoors in the pasture. And I so love the shirt you’re wearing...I hope to order one, as this issue is a pet-peeve of mine❤
This video was shared to us by our son who loves your channel! Subscribed as soon as we finished watching it. It’s🔥! Thank you!
Ironic and true... "With freedom comes responsibility..." - L. Ron Hubbard
Love this long format riffing. I agree about making your voice heard for small town politics. I stay out of politics as much as I can, but when you live in a small town, often silence is met with ideologies that reflect big cities, so you have to speak up. Small down values don't have to die with the old generation, the folks moving to small towns have to learn to speak up and represent the values that lured them there in the first place, or they will be lost with the old timers and all the city folk who are just escaping the shitties to hide and don't do anything or speak up ... those values will be lost.
The first step for those who are free is to make sure their family, neighbors & community do not make decsions from fear.
That is why we made a program for that.
AWESOME TO HEAR SOMEONE TALK REAL TRUTH OF OUR CREATOR FATHER LORD JESUS CHRIST AMEN ❤YOUR WORK IS AMAZING
Dude, your channel and wisdom is epic...thank you
You bring up several intetesting points. In my own case, I had the mindset and SOME knowledge, but in several cases lacked understanding of how to INTERPRET the data I had. And so while I had knowledge and the mindset, I acted on the wrong premise because my interpretation of that knowledge was flawed. THAT has been my biggest hinderance in moving ahead. That, along with in some situations not knowing how/where to get the reliable data.
Right now each and every one of us must make a decision. You need to make a choice, and you need to make it soon. Do you want to be free? Or do do you want to be bound to the whims of the bank/government? Our choice simply boils down to this: Freedom? Or phone? You can't have both right now. Maybe later we can negotiate those Terms of Services and Agreements. The current legal language doesn't provide any protections for us. In fact, those ToS&A contracts force us to forfeit our 1st, 4th, and 5th Amendment Rights. Those contracts we have agreed to are held by business entities that work directly for/with the government. Meaning we have given the government permission to legally violate our rights.
All of these tech and telecom companies hold massive government contracts to collect and store as much of our data as they possibly can. They work directly with/for the government. You can't turn the power off on the new phones for a reason. Your phone is already monitoring you 24/7, and it's reporting everything it can sense to the nearest cell tower every few seconds.
Our only out is ditching the (prison) cellphone and cancelling the (prison) cellular contracts.
Right now, there isn't any existing legal language preventing you from opting out of the contract(s). At least none that I have found yet. That doesn't mean they won't insert a clause that says something along the lines of "you agree to rescind/forfeit/give up the right to opt out forevermore" in the future Since all of this is factual and true, it comes down to this: Freedom (no phone). Or Slavery (because of the phone). If they get to the rollout stage of the CBDC Social Credit System it will be Game Over. If you have a working mobile device and it is connected to the cellular network when they roll out the CBDC System, you will be locked into the grid.
Freedom? Or phone? It's that simple. We are all depending on each other to make the right choice, and make that choice quickly. We are running out of time. You know what you need to do. Just do it. And tell EVERYONE to do the same.
@ herbgreen9728* I was wondering... How would we be able to stay connected to distant family and friends without a phone if there was an Emergency in the family? Phones are used to make contact with people. They used to pen letters... I have always written letters, and still do. But, nobody writes back because they can just pick up the phone. I was going to go back to a landline phone and found out that they are now connected through the internet ! We don't have a Pony Express...🤔 . Maybe If things get worse and we end up having to live without the internet and electricity, there will be again. Imagine what people would do if all of a sudden our whole Grid went down... Most would have no experience or knowledge on how to deal with it. I seriously worry about people who are dependent on the Government in these large Cities 😢
I suppose it would come down to survival of the fittest minds.
I’m loved meeting you this past weekend in Vandalia and love the way you think. May need to pick your brain at some point about properties.
skip to 24:38 if you're ACTIVATED ("awake" just isn't good enough anymore, especially if you're sub 40 years old). WEF has already openly acknowledged that "there will be those that do not come along" or the left behind crew...
That take over small towns idea and fill it with truthers is on point. That would be so great.
I hope that when the snow falls and things slow down Curtis can find time to write the SHTF farmer book.
EXCELLENT WORK CURTIS LOVE IT!!!!
Read Scripture (Psalms, Proverbs, Gospels, Epistles) on a daily basis, and it'll help the mindset! Nice video.
You are tapped in spiritually Curtis, thanks u for this video. Will be looking into the capital video as well. I have learned something new today. As a 32 year old soon to be divorced single mother. This info all touched home for me and for creating and manifesting an enriched future
for anyone that don't understand this video or to kick this process fast, i suggest to go on a 40 day retreat no phone, no food, no thoughts in a peaceful place ALONE
Curious.. what was you tipping point to want to be off grid. I started watching you for micro-green info and then started watching your newer videos.
It has been a long process. I've wanted to be off-grid even before I started farming.
Just found your channel, wow! Living in Victoria Australia, we sure are getting hammered by Dictator Dan(Parasite/Controller/Elite's puppet), watching your videos, listening to you and your frame of mind, it's super refreshing, some of us understand what's been going on, thank you ☺️
Spirit leads the mind which leads the body
Do not attempt to fix health issues if your mental state is poor
Do not attempt to fix your mental state if your spirit isn't fed
Begin at the top and it all flows from there. Build your relationship with God. Many of you do not even know what this means or how to do it. Others will join a Church and be warned, many modern church's have lost their way and will not help you. Your relationship with God is a personal thing. Begin by setting aside time every day to Pray.
To atheists, pray. It's doesn't matter if you reject God, he doesn't reject you. So why should Atheists trust my advice?
Because think on it. By praying you are concentrating your mind on what matters to you. You are being thankful for all you have. You are thinking of concerns , of others. you are gaining perspective in life by praying
The next step is to learn to listen to God. It is a very real phenomenon. Everyone has an inner voice. Christians call this the Holy spirit. Religious or not, it doesn't matter. You have an entity speaking to you if you'd only listen. This entity. God/Holy spirit/Inner voice is 100% on your side. Is 100% honest. Has a perspective you cannot gain yourself.
So learn to quiet your mind and hear and follow your connection to God. Your spirit will flourish with these two steps and from there your mental, then physical states will improve.
Love the shirt, always a good perspective with what's going!
Thank-you Curtis, Love you.
Great information i agree also love your view from your homestead
AWESOME talk brother. I’m sharing this everywhere. Keep ‘em coming! 🔥🔥
Idea on changing geography there: Pace out these talks when and where the ground is wet and soft to press in a vernal frog pond if they are in the area and you get the insects there to feed them. It may take a while but you're buying time just by being where you are. 😊 Thanks Curtis.
I love that shirt!!!
Point taken. Andrew Tate talked about remedy online/in public. They simply threw him in prison with no charges. I am curious to see if he is now a transformed man since his release. Did they break him?
Curtis- I have followed you (off and on) for years - from the Urban farmer, to where you are now.
I see that our philosophies have converged a bit. You have come a little closer to where I was on some points, and I have found some of your thoughts quite enlightening.
One of these days, when I can escape some of the rat race, I hope to meet you in person.
I think that it would be interesting to swap stories.
Thank you
Holy fuk Curtis!! To think I set about to grow micro greens and along the way found kindred spirit! Thanks for speaking the truth...and for urban farmer content as well.
Thank you for this. You are the next level of thinking.
Yes, BUT what are you DOING?
You made a lot of important points here.
