NEVER SURRENDER It’s all theater. They’re all actors. The world is a stage. Nothing is real. Comments like these are all over the internet lately. People are so exhausted by relentless lies and corruption that they’re opting out altogether. I feel them. I do. There are times when I want to walk away and never look back. (If you want to dive deeper with me on these types of topics and a chance to personally ask me specific questions, make sure to sign up to join my newsletter at mikkiwillisdotcom) It’s in those moments that I have to remind myself—wait, this is exactly what they want me to do. Then I recall that infamous quote attributed to a former CIA director: “We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.” What you’re doing might feel like rebellion—but it’s not. What you’re actually doing is playing into the final stage of their disinformation program. The angry comments you will inevitably leave on this video will serve as evidence of your level of indoctrination. You’ve allowed them to convince you that, to be a true dissident, a real freedom fighter, a genuine black sheep, you must completely disavow everything. Stop engaging. Stop fighting for what you believe in. Just stop caring. You’ve been programmed to believe this is what strength looks like. When, in fact, it is surrender. You are surrendering. All the tough-talking renegades think they’re beating the system by abandoning it. But the real badasses are the ones who stay in the fight to build a new system. So yes—I agree that both political parties are failing us, and that the vast majority of selected leaders are merely puppets. But that doesn’t discourage me. If anything, it fires me up. It fires me up because it shows that, for the first time in modern history, we the people are waking up from the illusion that some superhero is going to swoop in and save the day. You are the hero of your life. No one else. This is your hero’s journey. The man who coined that phrase, Joseph Campbell, spent most of his life studying the stories humans have shared since the beginning of time. What he discovered was that regardless of era or culture, humanity tells similar myths—stories designed to help each generation understand its deepest purpose for existing. His work was so profound that in the 1970s Hollywood began using it as a structural template for screenplays. Most iconic films worth remembering follow the arc of Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey. And while every hero’s path is unique, all roads lead to a similar crescendo. You’ve seen it a thousand times: The reluctant hero is forced to face their greatest fear. A fierce battle ensues. And just when all hope appears lost… The battered hero finds a new strength. The strength to rise. To stand tall. To look the dragon dead in the eyes and… We did not come here to surrender.
