A NEW DECLARATION

The New Declaration of Independence 

Action of A Crazy Podcast Host July 5, 2021 

The unanimous Declaration of this one person,

It’s time to break this shit up. Our political system is broken and hasn’t worked since the beginning, at least not for some. We’ve got to take the power that has been given to us by God or whoever is looking over this little blue dot. Decency be damned. Here’s why we need to break from the way we’ve always done things:  

We are all humans. We are queer and straight and exist all along the spectrum. We are black and white and all the beautiful colors in between. No one is better than anyone else and it’s time we all admitted that. Every human being deserves to be happy, deserves to be treated with equality and respect, and deserves to live a life without worry. 

Governments are supposed to work for us, not against us. The government gets its power from us. It’s not supposed to take power from us. The government has become a destructive force coerced by those who pretend to be patriots. That’s why it’s time to get rid of the government as we know it and to do our own thing. We need a country that provides safety and happiness for all its citizens, not just the wealthy and white. 

We are too smart to unwittingly call for such a separation. We don’t take this call lightly but the system is broken. We have put up with the crap that has been given to us for too long. We can no longer stand idly by and do nothing. The evils that are happening are too great to ignore. 

It’s time for the new guard to step up and show this country and the world that we can live in a country where one is free to live as they choose, not as others would demand them to be. It’s time to be a country where racism is a thing of the past, not because we pretend it didn’t happen but because we look at ourselves in the mirror and have hard conversations. People of Color have suffered for far too long and we have to say so. Our government has to change but it has worked against people of color since its inception. 

The History of the present government run by the wealthy, connected, and white has a History of repeated Injuries and Violations, all in direct objection to the natural order of humanity. There has been and continues to be an absolute Tyranny over Americans of Color and Poor Americans. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid World.

The United States has tolerated racism in all its forms.

The United States disproportionately incarcerates persons of color to its white counterparts.

The United States restricts voter access to persons of color.

The United States refuses to create laws for racial equality.

The United States continually rejects and ignores legislation that would bring more just conditions to persons of color.

The United States has tried to prevent immigration and migration from countries with large populations of color. 

The United States has empowered officials to harass our People, in their homes and on the border. 

The United States has kept among us, in Times of Peace, Standing Armies in the form of militarized police, without the consent of its people. 

The United States has effectively rendered the Militarized Police as independent of and superior to the people. 

The United States has allowed for the protection of the Militarized Police among us: by mock Trial, from Punishment for any Murders which they should commit on people of color.

The United States has prevented Trial by Jury of our peers who look like us.

The United States has polluted our Seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our Towns, and destroyed the Lives of its People through unjust laws meant to benefit the white and wealthy.
I, therefore, a crazy podcast host, call on the United States government and all of those with power and influence in this country to immediately make changes to support and protect its poor citizens, its citizens of color and all Americans who work hard every day to earn an honest and decent living for themselves and their families. Without immediate action I declare that those mentioned herein are, and have the Right to be, FREE AND INDEPENDENT PERSONS, that we are absolved from all Allegiance to the United States, and that all political Connection between us and it be dissolved.
