Our government is genuinely illegitimate and I'm done dancing to their music,

I know we all thought we'd have to overthrow them or something, but I don't think that's true. I think they'll basically get so full retard that they'll end up overthrowing themselves.

The trick will be to stay out of their way as they drunkenly lumber about.

That said, focus on your local governments and create alternative systems. Get involved in your local communities. You're not the minority they want you to think you are. If you are....move somewhere where you aren't.

Be prepared to suffer a bit and redefine what "success" is to you. The book of revelation can be a great time if you chose to embrace it and have a good time. I am, and it's working for me.

Despite what some will say this is an acceptable strategy. Not everyone is meant to or can fight, and every force relies on supply lines, so as long as you're contributing in some way then just surviving is an okay goal.

Also, it's possible that the Beast Machine will do a better job of taking itself out than any resistance could. In that case established communities will be far more valuable than lives thrown away fighting. Ideally though people should be prepared for both. I don't think it's clear yet which way it will swing, but even if the machine goes down you'll still have to face the hordes.

"Be prepared to redefine what "success" is to you."
Good advice.
