How the Swiss Turned the Alps into a MASSIVE Fortress
He has a lot of good content on his channel. He shows how Switzerland was able to stay "neutral" for the past 150yrs.
EXACTLY!! public schools.. smh. I was always taught the Swizz made the choice to remain neutral and everyone respected it.
I wish us Black American Freedmen could practice this level of self-determination and self-preservation on a grand scale. We have no collective allies after all and neither political side (Democrat or Republican) is for us. This is what true codified divesting looks like. Reparations (a form of justice) and having an universal codified mindset can help us achieve this.
i feel what you're saying. but I personally feel like part of the problem is that a lot of us want reparations and still co-mingle with the oppressor.
a lot of these countries that are on code are not racially diverse. They stick to their own and protect their own.
Our stories are way different too. It makes more sense to compare how the Swiss move to like let’s say Senegal, Nigeria, etc. You’ll be able to see why Switzerland is where it’s at now and why we here prisoner to Europe.
If it happens it’s not going to be anything like how people imagine it. It will be a couple years of chaos and instability with a purge taking place od all collaborators with the enemy. We have all the elements needed but it‘s going to be a long and hard road and not everyone will make it.
Switzerland has no standing Army. The people are the army. By law actually, all men are supposed to have a gun.
It wasn't invaded by the Nazis for a few reasons. One of them is that geographically you will need too many people to hold it and you'd be fighting a guerilla war.
Similar to why Afghanistan has never been pacified. Its just too difficult to hold it. The Macedonians under Alexander the Great, arguably the world's greatest general couldn't pacify there, neither could the British empire at its height.
One thing we can learn from Switzerland is to normalize black men having guns. If you want to make white conservatives restrict guns, and I write this half jokingly, is in open carry states have as many black men as possible open carry guns. Same in concealed weapon permitted states. The white people will modify those laws.
There is a reason we were outlawed from owning firearms after slavery in many cities and states.

Switzerland has four different regions (cantons) that speak 4 different languages. I don’t know how to keep a sense of unity that way. Countries with just two main language regions have major problems with unity.
But the point is unity. Yeah, I’m trying to read about other cultures to see what the key is; how do they do it. We were unified before integration.
English is taught in all Swiss schools, and they all grow up learning the others languages, mainly French and German. The south speaks Italian near the alps but they are the minority. They all have a very good command of English. They are Swiss and that unites them. They are united.
Belgians speak 3 languages and English as a universal language. No one has ever accused Belgians of being disunited because of different languages.
African nations speak English or French with most people speaking multiple tribal languages and dialects.
Different languages isn't an hindrance if you have a code.
I just noticed that you pointed out racial sameness, and protecting and looking out for one another.
Interesting. That isn’t what I’ve heard at all , but the point is being on code. So if some of us are on code, might that influence the rest of us to be on code?
Yes, being on code. You don't have to be racially the same. Just same goals and code or anything you share that is held deeply by all parties and held generationally.
Immediately after 911, blacks and whites and everyone were on the same page for the first fewe weeks all over America. Shared tragedy. Same with after Pearl Harbor. Blacks, Whites, everyone had a stalemate. Same with VE (Victory in Europe) day after WW2.
That kind of thing doesn't last a long time. It wears off. Anyway, if we got invaded by the Chinese or Russian, white folks will be our best friends. In the alien invasion, Sci Fi movies, racism seems to take a back seat...lol.

I noticed that populations of people who you never see involved in battle, war, or social politics always the kind of people under the woodwork inventing, reinventing, and making the most out of their environments. They plan and adapt when no one is looking. Just like the Amish people in America! People forget they are even a thing half the time but those people will be the ones surviving if everything goes belly up cause they know how it. They is so much value in learning nature, prepping, and how to work alongside your surrounding to benefit you.
It would be interesting to see an episode that includes the Amish in The Walking Dead. Different people have shown advancement over the years.
The Egyptians and surrounding peoples in present day Sudan, Ethiopia were the leading scholars at one time. The Persians at one time. The Arabs/Moslems, which including Blacks from northern Europe, were leading scholars for a time in everything, math, science, astronomy, medicine, etc and they were on track to accomplishing what the Jews have done over the centuries and about 1000-1100 AD they rejected the acquisition of knowledge up to and including burning down the great library in Alexandria, Egypt.
They retreated into religion only. The British, Germans, French in the new age, reformation, etc.
Then of course America and today India is back (the term Guru is an Indian word and the Indians were the ones that invented Chess).
We could be that and more. We invented all kinds of things during slavery and post slavery. I have zero doubt if we had the proper structure and infrastructure we'd kick everyone's azz in advancements including Jews and Indians. None whatsoever in my mind. And you know what? White folks in academia secretly know that I believe. They know our potential more than we do. Which is ironic and a shame.
Anyway, back to the topic. The Mali empire, headquartered in the great capital and center of learning at Timbuktu, had 100s, perhaps 1000s of different tribes living peacefully in the empire, as it was a vast empire. So, to say we can't have that is a fallacy. We did before.
