My neighbors have an infowars sticker on one of their cars. They also have painted their truck with a sunrise, rainbows, and some peace related things. They have signs on their house window and gate that say private property/no solicitation, etc. I wouldnt be surprised if they have cameras around their house. One of the girls that lives there is cute. I may have to put on my Crass Anti War shirt to lure her in.

"The Comprehensive Planning Law was developed in response to the widely held view that state planning laws were outdated and inconsistent with the current needs of Wisconsin communities. Commonly recognized as Wisconsin's "Smart Growth" legislation, significant changes to planning-related statutes were approved through the 1999-2001 state biennial budget. Under the new law, any program or action of a town, village, city, county, or regional planning commission, after January 1, 2010, that affects land use must be guided by, and consistent with, an adopted Comprehensive Plan, s. 66. 1001, Wis. Stats." (17)
The APA's Legislative Guidebook offers several forms of the model legislation. States have considerable latitude in the legislation that is adopted. Consequently, each state's legislation may be different, and may impose different requirements on county and city governments. Regardless of the difference, however, they all contain the basic principles set forth in Agenda 21, and they all require the development of plans that result in the implementation of the recommendations contained in Agenda 21. One of the fundamental elements of all the plans requires limiting development (growth) to certain areas within the county. Planners draw lines on maps, supposedly to prevent development in "environmentally sensitive" areas, but which, in fact, are often quite arbitrary and sometimes influenced by political considerations. The value of land inside the development areas skyrockets, while the value of land outside the development areas plummets - with no hope of future appreciation. Another common element of these plans is to limit the activity that may occur within the various plan designations. In King County, Washington, for example, property owners in some parts of the county are required to leave 65% of their land unused, in its "natural" condition.
"Known as the 65-10 Rule, it calls for landowners to set aside 65 percent of their property and keep it in its natural, vegetative state. According to the rule, nothing can be built on this land, and if a tree is cut down, for example, it must be replanted. Building anything is out of the question." (18)
These plans also focus on reducing automobile use. Measures sometimes include making driving less convenient by constructing speed bumps and obstructive center diversions on residential streets, prohibiting single occupant use of certain traffic lanes, as well as a variety of extra "tax" measures for auto use. Oregon is experimenting with a mileage tax, based on miles driven. London has imposed a special tax on automobiles that enter a designated "high traffic area." Several U.S. cities are studying this idea. Santa Cruz, California's plan seeks to ban auto use in certain municipal areas. Hundreds of NGOs have popped up to form a "World Carfree Network" (19) which lobbies local officials to reduce or eliminate auto use. Alternative transportation is another common element of these plans. Light rail is a favorite, even in communities that have no hope of achieving economic viability. Proponents of sustainable development argue that even if a light rail system has to be subsidized forever, it is a bargain just to get automobiles off the streets. Bicycle paths and "Trails" are always a substantial part of sustainable community plans. Housing in sustainable communities presents special problems. Space limitations, imposed by growth boundaries, force higher densities and smaller housing units. The term "McMansions" has been coined to describe new homes that are larger than necessary, as determined by sustainable development enthusiasts. Multiple housing units are preferred over single-family structures. Since sustainable communities cannot grow horizontally, they must grow vertically - if they grow at all. These problems have produced a variety of responses. Some of the new terms that are becoming common in sustainable communities are: Limited Equity Co-ops; Resident-controlled Rentals; Co-housing; Mutual Housing; and many others. (20) Invariably, these schemes are alternatives to the conventional single-family home. Most often, these schemes vest ownership in a corporation that owns the housing units, and residents may, but not always, own shares of the corporation. Living conditions are determined, not by the individual resident, but by the corporation. Financing for the construction of these units, typically requires construction to meet "sustainable" standards, if federal money is used, either directly or indirectly, as in a mortgage guarantee. Single family homes and business structures that already exist when a community is transformed to sustainability are a special problem, since they rarely meet the criteria required by the comprehensive plan. APA's Legislative Guidebook offers a new solution for this problem: "Amortization of Non-Conforming Uses." This means that a city or county may designate a period of time in which existing structures must be brought into conformity with the new regulations.
"But for homeowners who live in a community that adopts the Guidebook's vision, the APA amortization proposal means the extinguishing, over time, of their right to occupy their houses, and without just compensation for loss of that property. How long they have before they must forfeit their homes would be completely up to the local government." (21)
Eminent domain is another tool used by government to bring their communities into compliance with the sustainable communities vision. With increasing frequency, governments have used this technique to take land, not for "public use," as required by the U.S. Constitution, but for whatever the government deems to be a "public benefit." (22) Governments may condemn and seize the private property of an individual, and then give, or sell it, to another private owner who promises to use the property in a way that satisfies the government's vision. Plans adopted at the local level can have extremely detailed requirements. It is not unusual for these plans to specify the types of vegetation that must be used for landscaping, the color of paint to be used - inside and outside the structure, and even the types of appliances and fixtures that must be used. Businesses can be required to use signs that conform in size and color to all the other signs in the neighborhood. There is virtually no limit to the restrictions that these plans may impose. These comprehensive plans are often complicated by an assortment of sub-authorities, such as Historic Districts; Conservation Districts; Economic Development Districts; Scenic Highways and Byways; Scenic Rivers and Streams; and more. These quasi-government agencies are most often created by ordinance, and populated with political appointees. They are frequently given unwarranted authority to dictate the use of private property within their jurisdiction. Individuals caught up in conflict with these agencies are often frustrated by the indifference of elected officials, and financially drained by the legal costs required to resist their dictates. In one form or another, sustainable development has reached every corner of the United States. It has impacted millions of Americans, most of whom have no idea that their particular problem is related to a global initiative launched more than 15 years ago, by the United Nations. Many, if not most of the bureaucrats at the local and state level, charged with implementing these policies, have no knowledge of their origin. What's worse, few people have considered the possible negative consequences of these policies.
Consequences of Sustainable Development What is perhaps the most serious consequence of sustainable development is the least visible: the transformation of the policy-making process. The idea that government is empowered by the consent of the governed is the idea that set the United States apart from all previous forms of government. It is the principle that unleashed individual creativity and free markets, which launched the spectacular rise of the world's most successful nation. The idea, and the process by which citizens can reject laws they don't want, simply by replacing the officials who enacted them, makes the ballot box the source of power for every citizen, and the point of accountability for every politician. When public policy is made by elected officials who are accountable to the people who are governed, then government is truly empowered by the consent of the governed. Sustainable development has designed a process through which public policy is designed by professionals and bureaucrats, and implemented administratively, with only symbolic, if any, participation by elected officials. The professionals and bureaucrats who actually make the policies are not accountable to the people who are governed by them. This is the "new collaborative decisions process," called for by the PCSD. (23) Because the policies are developed at the top, by professionals and bureaucrats, and sent down the administrative chain of command to state and local governments, elected officials have little option but to accept them. Acceptance is further ensured when these policies are accompanied by "economic incentives and disincentives," along with lobbying and public relations campaigns coordinated by government-funded non-government organizations. Higher housing costs are an immediate, visible consequence of sustainable development. Land within the urban growth boundary jumps in value because supply is limited, and continues to increase disproportionately in value as growth continues to extinguish supply. These costs must be reflected in the price of housing. Add to this price pressure, the regulatory requirements to use "green seal" materials; that is, materials that are certified, either by government or a designated non-government organization, to have been produced by methods deemed to be "sustainable." Higher taxes are another immediate, visible, and inevitable consequence of sustainable development. Higher land values automatically result in higher tax bills. Sustainable development plans include another element that affects property taxes. Invariably, these plans call for the acquisition of land for open space, for parks, for greenways, for bike-and- hike trails, for historic preservation, and many other purposes. Every piece of property taken out of the private sector by government acquisition, forces the tax burden to be distributed over fewer taxpayers. The inevitable result is a higher rate for each remaining taxpayer. Another consequence of sustainable development is the gross distortion of justice. Bureaucrats who draw lines on maps create instant wealth for some people, while prohibiting others from realizing any gain on their investments. In communities across the country, people who live outside the downtown area have lived with the expectation that one day, they could fund their retirement by selling their land to new home owners as the nearby city expanded. A line drawn on a map steals this expectation from people who live outside the urban growth boundary. Proponents of sustainable development are forced to argue that the greater good for the community is more important than negative impacts on any individual. There is no equal justice, when government arbitrarily takes value from one person and assigns it to another. Nowhere is this injustice more visible than when eminent domain is used to implement sustainable development plans. The Kelo vs. The City of New London case brought the issue to public awareness, but in cities throughout the nation, millions of people are being displaced, with no hope of finding affordable housing, in the new, "sustainable" community. In Florida, this situation is particularly acute. Retirees have flocked to Florida and settled in mobile home parks to enjoy their remaining days, living on fixed incomes, too old or infirm to think about a new income producing career. Local governments across the state are condemning these parks, and evicting the residents, in order to use the land for development that fits the comprehensive plan, and which produces a higher tax yield. These people are the victims of the "greater good," as envisioned by the proponents of sustainable development. Less visible, but no less important, is the erosion of individual freedom. Until the emergence of sustainable development, a person's home was considered to be his castle. William Pitt expressed this idea quite powerfully in Parliament in 1763, when he said:
''The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the force of the crown. It may be frail - its roof may shake - the wind may blow through it - the storm may enter, the rain may enter - but the King of England cannot enter - all his force dares not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement.'' (24)
No more. Sustainable development allows king-government to intrude into a person's home before it becomes his home, and dictate the manner and style to which the home must conform. Sustainable development forces the owner of an existing home to transform his home into a vision that is acceptable to king-government. Sustainable development is extinguishing individual freedom for the "greater good," as determined by king-government. Conclusion The question that must be asked is: will sustainable development really result in economic prosperity, environmental protection, and social equity for the current generation, without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs? (25) Even in the early days of this century-long transition to sustainability, there is growing evidence that the fundamental flaws in the concept will likely produce the opposite of the desired goals. Forests that have been taken out of productive use in order to conform to the vision of sustainable development have been burned to cinders, annihilating wildlife, including species deemed to be "endangered," resulting in the opposite of "environmental protection." Government- imposed restrictions on resource use in land that is now designated "wilderness," or "buffer zones" have resulted in shortages, accompanied by rapid price increases that result in the opposite of "economic prosperity." In sustainable communities, it is the poorest of the poor who are cast out of their homes to make way for the planners' visions; these victims would not define the experience as "social equity." Detailed academic studies show that housing costs rise inevitably as sustainable development is implemented. Traffic congestion is often worsened after sustainable development measures are installed. (26) And always, private property rights and individual freedom are diminished or extinguished. Sustainable development is a concept constructed on the principle that government has the right and the responsibility to regulate the affairs of people to achieve government's vision of the greatest good for all. The United States is founded on the principle that government has no rights or responsibility not specifically granted to it by the people who are governed. These two concepts cannot long coexist. One principle, or the other, will eventually dominate. For the last 15 years, sustainable development has been on the ascendency, permeating state and local governments across the land. Only in the last few years have ordinary people begun to realize that sustainable development is a global initiative, imposed by the highest levels of government. People are just beginning to get a glimpse of the magnitude of the transformation of America that is underway.

The question that remains unanswered is: will Americans accept this new sustainable future that has been planned for them and imposed upon them?. Or, as Americans have done in the past, will they rise up in defense of their freedom, and demand that their elected officials force the bureaucrats and professionals to return to the role of serving the people who pay their salaries, by administering policies enacted only by elected officials, rather than conspiring to set the policies by which all the people must live.

The question is that are we gonna be selfish and try to keep our lifestyle and let the rest of the world pay for it or can we accept the the fact that our lives will have to change in order to save the planet from burning out. Sure it will limit our freedom, but if we continue the way we do now, the prices will go up, and it will make the poor people even poorer and the rich even richer.

I didn't read more than the last paragraph so i don't really know what you're saying, but i give up since you seem to have way more enthusiasm to think about this than what i do.

Alex Jones fans: people who care so much about politics and their community that they insult others for not believing what they believe while doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to deal with issues they think are important or do anything positive for their community. Alex Jones is an excuse for actual apathy while deluding yourself into thinking you know more than anybody.

I saw a poll listed on the RT website about American opinions on gun control. It didn't follow the Alex Jones narrative. On facebook, it was literally hundreds of Alex Jones nitwits telling people to unsubscribe to the independent news site because it didn't follow what Jones was saying.

Alex Jones fans are cult members, they believe things that agree with the messages Alex Jones sends them, but as soon as it becomes critical of him or any of his points, its propaganda. The sad thing is, those idiots don't even recognize it despite their obsession with thinking they are the only ones with their eyes wide open.


Oh, and acknowledging the president is black isn't racist. Saying "Oh everything should be totally perfect now because there is a black president" is incredibly racist and implies that if it were up to you, a cracker would be in their fixing things. You emphasized race, you didn't just mention it.


What a pathetic cult. Far more creepy than Bohemian grove, which Nixon described as "the most faggy goddamned thing you could ever imagine"

It may have been sarcasm though. That's how I read the comment initially anyway. Kind of like how racism is now over.

 Just to be clear, RT is funded by the Federal budget of Russia through the Federal Agency on Press and Mass Communications of the Russian Federation. 

That's an amusing inference you made about his fans doing nothing positive for the community. 

Funny you brought up Bohemian Grove, I just found out from a wine distributor that a Wine i make with my brother-in-law is going to be served at next July's Bohemian Grove Club encampment.   

Also, in his memoirs, Richard Nixon amplified the importance of his membership in the Bohemian Club:
"If I were to choose the speech that gave me the most pleasure and satisfaction in my political career, it would be my Lakeside Speech at the Bohemian Grove in July, 1967. Because this speech traditionally was off the record, it received no publicity at the time. But in many important ways it marked the first milestone on my road to the presidency. [Emphasis added.]
It was an emotional assignment for me and also an unparalleled opportunity to reach some of the most important and influential men?"

And, the head moonbat comes out to play!

No, it lost the ability to become an "adult conversation" once the bleeding hearts who trust the powers that be decided that the only thing they could do is call me a "faggot" because they live in a delusional world where they actually think being buttfucked by the government is equal to being cared for.  All you have to thrown out is your half-baked notion that anyone who is distrustful of the existing system and wants to consider that maybe, just maybe, it's a system that looks out for itself at the expense of the citizens, is some sort of tinfoil hat kook.  And that CERTAINLY proves you're "in the know", because anyone who doesn't gobble the media's semen must be a loon.

Where on earth do you get the idea that, because I'm unhappy with the current "both parties are the same" system that I'm anything remotely pro-anarchy?  Don't overthink things, because then you come up with incorrect assumptions like that.

I simply believe that the current shitty 2 party system has grown too big for its britches.  It's now a complex that takes care of itself at all costs, and will feed itself before it feeds the masses.  Not that I believe people are entitled to much of anything - no great civilization was built on entitlements, rather, entitlements and complacency have caused civilizations to collapse on themselves as the people care less about governance and more about entertainment and distraction.  I just want to see more people wake up to the reality of the system being shitty regardless of whether you vote to the right or to the left, and that it's time the people get mad about being lied to and actually hold their elected officials accountable for their actions.  They do the opposite of what they say?  Vote 'em the fuck out, just as people should have voted out Obama.  Fuck, the man publicly stated "If I don't do what I say I will do in my first term, then you shouldn't re-elect me for a 2nd term."  We still have shitloads of troops in Iraq and Afghanistan despite the promises he made.  Guantanamo is still open for business despite his promises.  Unemployment has stayed hovering at the same place despite promises.  I mean, how much more clear does it get that we're fed piles of steaming shit just to get our votes, then, there's no real concern to perform because you can just claim the "other side" keeps blocking your efforts.  Isn't it funny, though, that somehow these things didn't get done when Obama had full control of house and senate and could have passed anything he wanted?  And yet, the walking fucking dead voted him in again.  There's no explanation why people didn't do what he said and vote him out for someone who WOULD do the things he promised that so many voted him in for in the first place.  There's only two answers - either people voted for him on color, or, they were voting "team sports" style of us-vs-them and foolishly voted on silly party allegiances, neither of which show intelligence or concern for making things better.

This is what I can't stand.  We have SO much information at our fingertips, and can easily find out when bullshit truly is bullshit.  But instead, we scream at the "other side" and blame them for everything while giving the elected officials a free pass to keep on fucking us over.  Hence my love for the "Divide and conquer" deck because it's true - we've been divided, and we're on the verge of being conquered if we don't finally start trying to change the course we're on.  Do you REALLY think that things as they are will get us out of the mess we're in?  Do you REALLY think that printing up a goddamned trillion dollar coin and depositing it in the treasury will magically fix our debt as was recently discussed?  Do you REALLY think that trampling the constitution is magically going to solve our problems?

I know you obviously have some issues with what I'm saying here, but let me ask, what the fuck do YOU think needs to be done?  Shit's getting more fucked every year, so tell me, why aren't you more upset?

I simply believe that the current shitty 2 party system has grown too big for its britches.  It's now a complex that takes care of itself at all costs, and will feed itself before it feeds the masses.  Not that I believe people are entitled to much of anything - no great civilization was built on entitlements, rather, entitlements and complacency have caused civilizations to collapse on themselves as the people care less about governance and more about entertainment and distraction.  I just want to see more people wake up to the reality of the system being shitty regardless of whether you vote to the right or to the left, and that it's time the people get mad about being lied to and actually hold their elected officials accountable for their actions.  They do the opposite of what they say?  Vote 'em the fuck out, just as people should have voted out Obama.  Fuck, the man publicly stated "If I don't do what I say I will do in my first term, then you shouldn't re-elect me for a 2nd term."  We still have shitloads of troops in Iraq and Afghanistan despite the promises he made.  Guantanamo is still open for business despite his promises.  Unemployment has stayed hovering at the same place despite promises.  I mean, how much more clear does it get that we're fed piles of steaming shit just to get our votes, then, there's no real concern to perform because you can just claim the "other side" keeps blocking your efforts.  Isn't it funny, though, that somehow these things didn't get done when Obama had full control of house and senate and could have passed anything he wanted?  And yet, the walking fucking dead voted him in again.  There's no explanation why people didn't do what he said and vote him out for someone who WOULD do the things he promised that so many voted him in for in the first place.  There's only two answers - either people voted for him on color, or, they were voting "team sports" style of us-vs-them and foolishly voted on silly party allegiances, neither of which show intelligence or concern for making things better.

This is what I can't stand.  We have SO much information at our fingertips, and can easily find out when bullshit truly is bullshit.  But instead, we scream at the "other side" and blame them for everything while giving the elected officials a free pass to keep on fucking us over.  Hence my love for the "Divide and conquer" deck because it's true - we've been divided, and we're on the verge of being conquered if we don't finally start trying to change the course we're on.  Do you REALLY think that things as they are will get us out of the mess we're in?  Do you REALLY think that printing up a goddamned trillion dollar coin and depositing it in the treasury will magically fix our debt as was recently discussed?  Do you REALLY think that trampling the constitution is magically going to solve our problems?

I know you obviously have some issues with what I'm saying here, but let me ask, what the fuck do YOU think needs to be done?  Shit's getting more fucked every year, so tell me, why aren't you more upset?


Indeed you do.

What made me think that you'd enjoy living in a place with no functioning government?(Let's be honest, you probably think our current government is non functioning.) Oh I don't know, maybe the paragraphs you have been posting stating how we're all being fucked in the ass by "the powers that be." Your love of Ayn Rand. Comments like "Government is too big for it's britches."

The only thing i have to say in this thread is that the graphic was not made for infowars, it was an election graphic and a pretty good one at that. It got overlooked and the collabo just gets the graphics more exposure to people who would be interested in them. Seems like it worked considering this thread. I don't think theres anything wrong with political graphics or saying something. Some people are into it, some people aren't. No one is forcing you to buy it.

I love watching Alex Jones do his screaming buffoon character. It's so fucking funny.


It's kind of a bummer that I know people who actually get a large part of their news from him, but it's worth the entertainment value.

Wow just bumping this so a few people can eat their hats when it comes to talking away ultra right fascists and the threat they pose. The lengths people go to in this thread to argue that Infowars and Alex Jones aren't essentially the Proud Boys breeding ground is mind blowing. Fast forward 9 years and an assault on the capitol and the one positive I can take away from this is that finding out about this collab has cured me of my nostalgia for the days before the Sect's unravelling. Although on the other hand it's insane to think the guys responsible for creating these decks haven't been ostracised from the community. And does it mean the riders I look(ed) up to from that era like Heath and Jake Johnson were OK with this?!

Alex Jones is so disturbing. The way he rallied for the sandy hook hoax thing is morally wrong. Alien workshop should never had made this collabo.

Lol wtf, never saw this board.

For anyone who this deck's broader political message appeals to, please don't settle for conspiracy theory brain rot. Do a little bit of reading about the system that is fucking you on a daily basis instead:
