@Brian M You're a living participant in the movie as we speak, say cheese!

On board and out of the box!

ICCPR Article 16 guarantees your absolute right to recognition as a person before the law. This right is non-derogable — it cannot be limited or waived, even by states. Using a passport doesn’t surrender this right. You are free to exercise statutory recognition when it serves you (like for international travel), and to reject it when it violates your conscience. Recognition is not submission. It’s your right to invoke or withdraw statutory identity as you choose. The state has no lawful power to force permanent compliance. Asserting your Claim of Recognition means you choose when and how you engage with legal fictions. The right to recognition FLOWS FROM YOUR BEING, not your citizenship. No contradiction exists. You are the source of lawful standing — not the passport.

@Timm Stein What do you think? I say, yes, without a doubt. However, please consider this is not true freedom, but the best temporary solution to an even bigger problem. Our government(s), Canada, and of the world, are operating in ways which are CONTRARY TO LAW. Universal Law, International Law, Domestic Law and so forth. The entire government system(s) are constructed in ways that are based on LIMITING NATURALLY OCCURRING RIGHTS. Until everyone recognizes this, aaWE HAVE A MAJOR PROBLEM. This shall change, but not on it's own. We can recognize this, and we can do something about it. We are just getting warmed up my friend.🏢 ☠️🌲🪓🚪🔥 🌻🤲🙌

I have wrestled with this considerably. It is so eye-opening that something we cannot see with our eyes is having such a detrimental impact on our lives. ☠️🌎🇨🇦 Here’s what I recognize thus far: There is a structural pattern operating inside the human cognitive frame — not mystical, not supernatural, and not even physical — but still functioning like an invisible deceiver and manipulator that shapes what we mistakenly and blindly perceive as reality. This force intercepts perception before we even form our natural thoughts, filtering reality into a loop that quietly limits us. 🧬 What’s most unsettling is that this system isn’t experienced by us as something “out there” — it hides inside me, inside us, inside billions. It shows up as what feels “normal and familiar,” what seems like our own mind and being⁉️ What I’m recognizing is that the trap isn’t primarily in what we believe — it’s in what our beliefs do to us when they block right awareness and shut down right inquiry. Through that, we are prevented from being aligned with truth, left in disarray. 🧭❌ Even the feeling of being “in truth” is part of the loop. It replaces clear awareness with false identity, and convinces us that belief itself is proof enough. Once that boundary hardens, contradiction to this illusion can’t get in, and awareness can’t break out. 👎 And this isn’t rare — it’s everywhere. Billions are in it, living by it, defending it — while believing they’re right and free - and coming down hard on others who don't agree. ⛓️ I know I’m not completely out of it either. Every day forward, more and more, I am recognizing the wrongfully imposed limitations. 🪫 So now I’m seeing: This structure runs deeper than I could have ever known. 💡⚡️ I don’t have crystal clear recognition at this time, but I know this much: I acknowledge what you have brought forth in this part one. Not just intellectually — something in me recognizes it. ✅ Looking forward to another layer. 🕊️

I dedicate this song to the group - listen to it once, as is. Then, listen again. When she uses the word "love," replace it with the word "recognition.' Get it!? Yeah, you got it... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=h5JfoY0RCrY&pp=ygUNTWogY29sZSBJIHNlZQ%3D%3D#bottom-sheet

@Timm Stein I'm not sure if you got your answer yet. Did you? I hope you're available for our group tonight. I have a feeling this very topic matter is going to come up. Where did it come from and why did all these nation states give away all their power and sovereignty to jus cogens and peremptory norms? To be baffled by this is not wrong.

@Timm Stein We will miss your presence tonight. I really appreciate your thoughtful comments and questions. Enjoy the family time! And look for the recording. I'm sure it will be valuable. 🔭
