 I worked for the state once. I was in the Air Force.

In 2012, They took my appendix when they didn't need to.

In 2016, they vaccine injured me with a round of shots my doc recommended. I got a letter in the mail saying it was a bad batch, but it was completely safe and I should come get another round. Nah, doc.

 I got automimmune issues from that, and they worsened from the poisoned food. I left the military in 2017. The VA ignored me repeatedly because they don't believe in vaccine injuries. 

I can't eat gluten, dairy, rice, or seed oils without heart palpitations and reactions that feel like im dying these days

Anyways, I began contracting for that same Air Force again in 2018. They tried to poke everyone again in 2020. I said no and I lost my job from saying no in December 2021. I haven't worked in 2.5 years. 

This whole time I've been spending $900-1200 cuckbucks a month on meat and fruit alone to avoid inflammation and heal my body. All from my savings. I sold my house in late 2022 and my stack is down immensely in the last two years.

They poisoned me... They poisoned 19 out of 20 aisles of the grocery store for an autoimmune person like me. They poisoned my health. They've drained my wealth. They've taken my livelihood and my normalcy. 

When I view the big picture, it all seems so deeply personal. They wanna ban and control meat consumption when it is my only food... They want to stop us from saving in Bitcoin when it has been my literal saving grace... They say they want to close the "escape hatches".

When I tell you that this is the hill I will die on, I fucking mean it. There is no choice for me anymore. I've crossed the Rubicon. I will live free or die.  
 The Air Force is for Faggots sorry for your loss 
 Check your biases and maturity level with that comment brotha. For the good of us ALL 🙏🏻

Peace 💗 
 Truth is not a bias😂🫵 
 I want to start a new trend, despite not knowing if it is already a thing.

@Bitcoin Veterans 
 I'd love to. Gonna have to give the recent one with Odell a listen as well.  
 Live free or die brother.

This is why we exist! 
 We have an army of dudes behind us who feel the same way. DM us and #GetOnTheMission 
 USN gave my dad (20 yr service member) stage 4 metastatic cancer at 44 which killed him at 50.

But leaking nuclear reactors aboard old submarines are classified national security matters 🙄🙄

VA said must be a family history of early cancer. Conveniently his only deceased relative was his dad, who took a bullet to the head from the Viet Cong at a young age.

You ever met an elderly retired submariner? 
 Sorry for your loss man... The gov really has it coming with the way they treat people. 
 My dad worked on nuclear subs and is 10 years into retirement- granted that was only for a few years during Vietnam. 
Besides losing his hearing (I think from the engine rooms) he’s in pretty good shape 
 Live free or die 🫡

 Best of luck

If them using the words escape hatches doesn't wake people up, it will be too late when they do. 
 MUCH RESPECT MAN.. TAKE CARE, WISH YOU THE BEST! 🍀💜🫂💪🫡🤙 
 I’m with you. I escaped the military without those damages, but I get exactly where you’re coming from. 
 i'm right there with you brother, these people destroyed the best part of my life also

i literally am lucky that i have had the opportunity to get work building #nostr and lucky enough to be doing that living up in the farming areas of northern #madeira

i hope i can manage to keep this going so i can finally have my goat ranch and my own big vegie patch and fuck the world i hope it all washes away 
 Respect 🫡 
 That’s awful man… they just don’t respect life at all. 
 Inspiring story, keep up with the good fight. 🫂 
 Wow, thanks for sharing. 

Have you tried to find local meat producers? Buying a whole or half pig or beef can be more affordable and likely better quality than grocery store meat. 

Do you raise any animals for meat? Interested to learn? Many on here will be happy to help with this. Chicken and rabbits are pretty easy for beginners. Animals you raise can be very affordable if you are creative with feed sources.

Best of luck, let us know if you need any help.

 
 I sometimes am able to buy meat from a ranch in Texas when I visit family, but otherwise I usually get Costco meat which seems to be the best bang for the buck in my opinion.  I will start buying local again when I can afford it though. 
 I am so proud of the man I married 🤍 ride or die forever my love  
 🙏🧡 
 Who's trying to ban and control meat consumption? I followed everything else but this part didn't make sense to me. 
 Europe has culled millions of cattle in the name of methane and climate change goals which are actually food control laws. Yesterday in the US, an omnibus bill passed by the house approved funding for "electronically tagging all cattle in the US". Last year or the year before they attempted to outlaw breeding animals for farming in Colorado relating it to a law that was shoved through pertaining to "Stopping Animal Rape". There were also cyberattacks on the largest meat producer two years ago, as well as fires on some of the largest ranchlands in Texas a month ago. The UN and WEF have declared they want to reduce everyones meat consumption drastically. One guy in the WEF is even on video suggesting they use tick-borne illness to cause allergies to meat on purpose.  
 They want certain people to die. Sadly it sounds as if you are one. 
 At the end of the day it's incentives. I'm a liability on some VA balance sheet until I'm no longer breathing.  
 the miscalculation they are making is that their actions have literally caused some of us, like you and like me, who have somehow managed to escape death, by our own survival instinct and intelligence, and when someone has made a mortal threat against you, you just can't forget that

you can never forget that

i am inigo montoya

you killed my brother

it's literally like that, i have a vendetta that will be with me until the day i die and i don't give a fuck what other people think about my ranting because i rant beacuse they tried to kill me, several times now, and i'm still hear and i am not ever gonna forget it because to date, this has cost me being able to have a family, and as a man that is worse even than threatening my life 
 I feel this so deeply. They miscalculated. You are not alone. We are grouping up at the schelling point that is freedom tech, and we are going to fight this dystopia head on. 
 i'm not gonna stop until i'm dead or i can live on another world 
 it's a funny thing too... in my work, also, there is a sense of "this may not be big money in the short term but it matters in the long term", and i spend a lot of mental energy on trying to find ways to make that medium term adequate, that's why i rant so much about NIP-42!!!!

we don't have to beat fartcaster or threads or any of those other things, discord, reddit, etc... we just have to hold our own, like the giant rocks of this island, long enough that those flashes in the pan are already forgotten again

just surviving will be the biggest fuck you of all 
 this is inherent in the nature of insurance and when that combines with health it's a pretty disgusting combination

insurance is a scam anyway, you wouldn't need it if you could save

and they then went and extended that to create the welfare system, which was initially sold as a "social insurance" and now oh look it turns out that means that now they want to legalise euthanasia in a bunch of countries to cut the public health bill

really, they just want to kill us, and this is the long winded, tricky mechanism they are using and in addition to the thing itself, they then twist it up to make it seem like there is some kind of debate about whether it's just a mechanism for genocide, with their shills selling this welfare scam as though it's protecting the weak, so everyone else better keep on stumping up more and more costs to fund this 
 I am sorry to hear this happened to you man.  Your story needs to be heard by more people.  They can't get away with ruining lives and health.  Everyday there are more people taking this firm stance like you..

We are going to win. God Bless. 
 Another vote for finding a nearby regenerative rancher who sells 1/2 or whole cows. If you're already buying grassfed beef, it's much cheaper. If you're not, it's better quality for what may be around the same price as supermarket meat. (Depends on where you live, obviously, and also how much freezer space you have.)

This breaks my heart, and it makes me sick that I've helped pay for just about everything bad in your post. (Not on purpose, but still...)

 Amen! 
 Fuck the govt

 I used to work as a Law Clerk for the ownership department at City of Chicago! They tried to force me get a vaccine and put me on the unpaid leave of absence. Which lead me to say fuck you communists! No regrets! Fuck government! 
 FUCK THE STATE 🤝 
 The VA system seems totally fucked.  Sorry to hear what you're going through 
 🫂 
 Air Force here too, man. The VA is a dumpster fire. Definitely reach out to Bitcoin Veterans. They are full if resources. Have you tried to work with a VA lawyer? I'm in the process of doing that now since my first round didn't go as well as it should have. 
 When #BTC was at $25k in August and September of last year, you recall how it seemed like it could only go down, not up. right?

Right now, it seems like #Bitcoin can only go up and not down. Yes, the market is just going through its normal motion.

Joining the RCL Vip Newsletter group is highly recommended if you haven't already: https://t.me/rebelcapitalistshowRCL is doing an excellent job of demystifying biases in #Bitcoin and shedding light on contentious issues. don't miss out some interesting performances, Good luck 
 Have you seen form 2168? 
 Stay strong comrade!  
 As a fellow Air Force veteran, I wish I could say I’m surprised. I am so sorry that you were burdened with all of this to carry for the rest of your life. I hope your story can be shared and heard by more people. I’m wishing you a stable life and health that hopefully comes sooner than later. Thank you for your service ❤️🫂 
 What you will do if your state is your enemy?

 Nice! What app is that? 
 Everything's for a reason everyone can do they're part  
 I have a very similar story to this 
 nostr is here for others to share/know the truth in pseudo-anonymous way or others pain are -  for just fucking porn/politics or GM/GN only 
 High,
i am so sorry to hear about your story in the army.
I hope you will get better soon.
Also in Europe there is a big debate about the covid vaccination (look to the testimony of Prof Dalglish in the UK parlement in december 2023).
I feel it is important to infom the Europeans on this subject. Therefore i have taken the liberty to translate your message in dutch (for Belgium and The Netherlands) and put it on X (@LucasHuybrechts).
I am only very recently on NOSTR (and intend to stay) but had lots of technical problems during the start up. Especially with 
Primal (can't follow anyone). I have restarted with Alby and Iris.to but i am nowhere near your situation.

 Bullish on living free or die trying 
 What a whiny little bitch. 

“I used to work for the state.” Sounds like you’ve only ever worked for the state. Also, remember, you volunteered and had the ability to say no to anything that wanted to do to you and leave at any time. 

“I haven't worked in 2.5 years.” Why not? Start a business, get a side hustle. Is driving Uber or working at McDonald’s beneath you? 

“They poisoned 19 out of 20 aisles of the grocery store for an autoimmune person like me.” They are poison for everyone.

Most people read this and say “poor Stirling” but all I see is complaints and no actions. What are you actually doing to change your fate besides making declarations on the internet? 
 🫂 
 I strongly suggest you look into carnivore diet for autoimmune issues. Steak and Butter Gal https://www.youtube.com/@SteakandButterGal is a good place to start. 
 Started my healing with carnivore. the high cortisol worsened the heart problems. adding in orange juice and bananas lessened that issue, and hasn't affected the benefits that carnivore gave me 
 I was autistic since 2004, also through the medical industry. I feel for your issues, but YHWH had been with you the entire time, whether you realize it or not. Stay strong and keep fighting for who you are as a person.
