Localism

” If you believe locals should have more say in the decisions that affect local communities, that’s localism.”
“Belonging to many networks does not add up to having a community, not matter how many you belong to or how often your telephone rings.”- John Taylor Gatto
I suspect this new Janis-face of the State Hydra, Localism.nz, is just a new group of politicians seizing control from the old lgnz.co.nz or older localcouncils.govt.nz. Like Dial 105 for Nash reminds us of, the machinery of power is constantly being fought over by the Sociopaths of our country. To this end, they re-brand and change phone numbers and names and titles and websites to hurriedly force out the Old Guard and put their own people in charge. Politicians hurry to do this before they become un-elected and the tables turn, their competition switch the tables and start doing the same back….on and on, over and over.Localists (Anarchists, Libertarians,..) can take some consolation at this sincerest form of flattery. That The State’s market research and branding expenditure has invested in Socialising the ideals of Localism means they recognise its value. Theft is a compliment criminals pay to virtuous people. People are becoming sick of Government and waking up to Anarchism. Yet, it is hard to have a revolution when The State, devoid of initiatives of its own, is constantly pillaging and expropriating that revolution, piece by piece, and claiming it was all their own idea.
