By When in the course of human events
it becomes necessary for one people
to dissolve the political bands
which have connected them with another that calls evil good
and good evil
when they look around and see
only shards and shambles of a country that might have been
when they’ve been robbed of the rights
which the laws of nature and nature’s God entitle them
in the wretched ruins left
when the long train of abuses has plowed way past the station
comes the somber occasion to declare the causes
which impel them to a separation
the occasion to tell of what we’ve lost
and of what we hold
We hold these truths to be self-evident
which means we shouldn’t even have to say it
but all men are created equal
they are endowed by their creator
with certain unalienable rights
like life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
freedom of speech, and of worship
and of conscience, these are non-negotiable axioms
as you pillar and plunder
and persist in abolishing them
we remind you that you never gave us these rights
you merely acknowledged them
your only job was to protect them
and not devolve into some
mutant mishmash of ideological nepotism
that would divide us and reduce us
under absolute, diabolical despotism
Let the facts be submitted to a candid world
We’ve gone from taxation without representation
to taxation without restriction
it was not the founders’ vision
to lock me in my house
shutter small businesses
print money as a pacifier and
mandate that I get fired for not complying
as if I should be sentenced completely
on the whim of a hapless half-wit
that can’t complete a sentence
a prince whose character is thus marked by every act which
may define a tyrant
whose incompetence and overt spending
mean that every dollar I earn
is worth pennies
We’ve gone from a flag that represented unity
in liberty, adventure, and sacrifice
to one that represents division
by race, gender, and sexual appetites
We’ve gone from championing equality to demanding equity
we’ve gone from pursuing truth to idolizing trends
pathologies thus marked by the wholesale capitulation of every institution upon which we depend
We’ve gone from amber waves of grain
and purple mountain majesties
to vast glades of swamp
gurgling in shadowy shades of depravity
the tragedy of a system rotted
thus marked by corruption, vitriol
and every crisis being coopted
into further conglomeration of control
you’ve lost the vision
We the people
are not the playthings of politicians
we are not pawns under the hands
of some glitterati imperial brass
the blue collar worker is not the whipping boy
of the cosmopolitan managerial class
middle America is not the armpit of America
middle America IS America
The silent majority is sick of the silencing
not to mention the coercion
the compelling
the condescension
as if we know nothing of what’s happening
of what’s marked by
globalist inquisitors informing us that we’ll own nothing
and be happy
We’ve gone from freedom of the press
to being pressed for freedom
thus marked, for instance
by the big tentacles of big tech
slithering into every crevasse of our existence
Google was good for settling debates
about song lyrics or getting directions
Facebook was great for 8th grade graduation pics
and scouring for old classmates and connections
but neither was ever supposed to determine
the outcome of our elections
We didn’t sign up for any of this
Our repeated petitions have been answered
only by repeated injury
our completely reasonable questions have been met with
only scorn, mockery, and censoring
Because you are deaf to the voice of justice
and blind to the plight of patriots
we, the citizens of the United States
appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world
for the rectitude of our intentions
do, in the name, and by authority
of the good people of this nation
solemnly publish and declare
our right to be free and independent
that we are absolved from all allegiance to
technological overlords, mainstream media delusions
deep state operatives, neo-Marxist movements
global elites, and captured institutions
And for the support of this Declaration
with a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence
we mutually pledge to each other our lives
our fortunes, our sacred honor
and our collective conscience
as individuals
indivisible and sovereign
This is not a revolution
this is a remembrance
ere there’s nothing left to remember
for our neighbors, our friends,
our families, and our descendants
we declare our independence
