Who am I? I am a member of the fast growing un-silent majority that is sick of the insanity that’s been going on in this country for far too long. What insanity am I referring to? Where should I begin?
To start with, what ever happened to common sense in this country? When did the American population become so ignorant that they believe almost anything they hear from their favorite politician or talking heads in the media without first doing an ounce of due diligence? When was a constitutional amendment passed that says people now have the “right” not to be “offended…” ever… by anyone or anything? Furthermore, when people do get “offended” by something, when did their right to “peaceably assemble” and protest, become a right to riot, or cause harm to others?
Whatever happened to, “there’s no such thing as a free lunch?” When did equal opportunity morph into equal results? When did it become the “in” thing for everyone to be a “victim” of something? When did personal accountability cease to matter? When did it start to make sense that as a nation, we could spend our way out of being bankrupt?
Today, more and more “real news” is being labeled “fake news” as part of a larger agenda on the part of both the mainstream media, and their accomplices in social media. You know what's really disturbing? When did we reach a point in American society when someone who merely questions the statements of known liars is branded with a scarlet letter, and labeled a “conspiracy theorist?”
My name is Michael DePinto. I am “The Voice of Reason” at The Last Great Stand, and I am also an Attorney. Do I think I have all the answers to the issues I either write or talk about? No, of course not. In fact, I would venture to say I have far less answers than I have questions. The only thing I claim to know with 100% certainty, is that the very institutions Americans “should” be able to rely on for critical and important news, rarely ever tell the truth anymore… ever!
It’s not that the mainstream media lies about every single story they report on, but they almost never convey anything remotely resembling the entire truth on much either. What concerns me most, and why I’ve decided to speak out, is that nowhere near enough other people in this country are asking tough questions about some of the nonsense that comes from either the woefully corrupt and dishonest mainstream media, or from politicians in Washington.
For the record, let’s be clear; so much of what is communicated to “We the People” by the very institutions Americans have every reason to expect the truth from, is total, complete, and utter nonsense. Nonsense! Countless studies have shown that confidence in the mainstream media is at an all-time low right now, but it’s not enough for people to know the media is not trustworthy. Why? Because for many people, the mainstream media’s version of a story is the only version they ever hear.
Thanks to Wikileaks, during the 2016 presidential election many of the long-standing suspicions about collusion between Democrats and the mainstream media were 100% vindicated. Much of what was once labeled as “conspiracy theory,” is now documented “conspiracy fact,” but leave it to the mainstream media to never let a few facts get in the way of their otherwise perfectly pre-written narratives. Rather than try to win back the confidence of the American people, the mainstream media has decided to “double down,” and for the most part they make very little effort to hide their liberal bias these days.
It’s alarming how many Americans are of the mistaken belief that President Trump can solve many of the problems that plague this country. The condition is sometimes jokingly referred to as "Trumphoria." Regardless of how much I support Donald Trump, the idea that he can solve all this country's problems is more total nonsense! Are things going to get “better” in America under a President Trump than under another corrupt President Clinton, or even any of the other 16 GOP candidates Donald Trump ran against during the primaries? Without a doubt they will, however “better” is a relative term.
Because academia and the mainstream media have both become institutions that are almost exclusively controlled by the far-left liberal ideology, there are are far too many major issues that aren’t even being discussed by any Americans, much less debated. As I said earlier, do I claim that to have all the answers? No, of course not. Will I be wrong at times? Without a doubt! I am just one man, and I don’t have anywhere near the resources that the mainstream media has at its disposal, so it’s important not to miss the forest through the trees.
Some people will insist on focusing on the one part of any given story I may get wrong, while completely glossing over ten other things that are not only spot on, but are also absurdly alarming. My goal is to shine a light on many of the issues that the mainstream media is guaranteed not to report on, and I hope to

This work is meant to be copied and plagiarized-take all you want. I am erasing everything October 1st.
Check 'My Groups' for essay content, I have this separated for easy reading and viewing. It is not necessary to join, the groups are open and I do not expect people to ever join anything.
Do as you wish, that I wish.
I have been asked many times what are my main influences, these are Pythagoras, Montaigne and Voltaire.
If you would like citations or a reading list for a specific post, please just ask.
...by the way, what I am putting together here are connected ideas and not some post-modern soup kitchen of slop. I understand myth and the occult much better than anyone I can find on the internet. In fact, I would go as far as to claim to be the only living expert at the level of skill I display (something I have yet to do despite the masterly level of skill involved in the work done thus far). I can prove it. If I can prove something, it usually makes me confident, how about you?
By the time I am finished here there will be no doubt in any of your minds as to the validity of my claims to wisdom. Having said that, all that I know is that I know little or nothing, and that this knowledge is worthless.
This page is best read from bottom to top, which was the way in which it was wrote. That is why I have numbered the essay. I also wrote everything so that it may be read separate and still make sense, if you would prefer this better.
...besides, everything I write is probibly just overrated...*smile*
Subjects and topics are separated by group now for convenience..
Hello, my friends, welcome to my channel!
On my page you will find topics related to craftsmanship, music, games, politics, and anything medieval.
Free speech and civility are important to me. We should speak truth, and be equally willing to listen when others speak wise words.
I am currently living in Daegu, South Korea and enjoying the beautiful country, temples, and castles. Feel free to chat and I will do my best to reply.
If you can, subscribe so we can make this corner of the web a larger, better place.
Thank you, all. Safe travels!
I am currently living in South Korea. My @TAK_In_South_Korea page is basically defunct. You can follow my travels here :)
Few things to know about me I am a 25 year old business man and a aspiring author and write stories, songs and poetry. Politically I am a National Socialist Fascist.
When I am not working at my job I am online listening to the news and supporting certain people I like on Youtube. I never had a Twitter Account, I do have a Facebook but hardly use it, and I have a Skype that I use when I am on it.
I like to joke around and shitpost at times trolling and taking the piss out of overly sensitive gapping pussies who pass off as humans these days. Over all I am a rather private individual and I like to make friends but I’d have to get to know you first before I can give out other info about myself.
