I don’t need a state to tell me how to take care of myself, train me in their camps and teach me how to think, what to feel and where I belong. Never have been in the army, but I thought myself how to shoot pretty decently, got myself a firearm, build myself a home for my family. I used to fall for nationalist ideology when I was young. Not anymore. I’m not going to go to fight for a political ideology that causes wars and ruins other people’s lives, but I’m prepared to defend and go down for my family and close friends. And I tell you this not to sound preachy or morally superior. It’s a personal choice. My fight against statism (and Marxism in particular) is my own and I fight it not on the ballot box, but with my wallet. A state can limit my choice for governance, but it can’t limit my economic choices. I’m bound to my family, not to my government. That doesn’t prevent me from carrying about my people’s legacy, traditions and faith. But I have no allegiance to a society or state that doesn’t have my best interests in mind and will try to take what I have whenever it gets the chance.
