The Bison Build It Back Project (Part 3)
Some Things are Meant to Stay the Same.
About Us
Welcome to the Bison Build It Back Project
The Bison Build It Back Project is dedicated to bringing the "old school" traditions back from the brink of no-man's land. The Present Day has no tradition. Period. It is a mix of simply ... "do whatever you like ... for whatever reason." We dismiss this approach to living and believe it breeds disaster because there is no direction. Therefore, its time to make a push to bring back some of the "once ways." Not all of them, because not all of them were good. But some of them? Yep! This is what this project is about. you are welcome to assist!
Who is the Bison?
Who is the Bison?
The "Bison" is a fictitious Hero dedicated to protecting all things that are good and positive in the United States, by addressing the countries most pressing issues, head on.
Why Does the Hero Call Himself the Bison?
For thousands of years, Bison frequented the North American countryside, grazing. They are known for having a very peculiar instinct: When a storm approaches, they charge directly into the it, instead of running away. Running away from the storm is the behavior of the Bison's close relative, the cow. Bison do this because they instinctively know that heading into the storm will get them out of it quicker.
According to Chat GPT: "Bison are known to run toward storms, not away from them. This behavior is often cited in nature-based leadership metaphors, but it's also rooted in biology and survival instinct. Here's the reasoning: Efficiency - Storms move relatively slowly compared to how fast bison can run. By heading into the storm, bison actually get through it faster. Running away from it would keep them in the storm's path longer. Adaptation - Bison have evolved in the harsh climates of the Great Plains, where storms are frequent and intense. Facing the storm head-on helps them conserve energy in the long run and find shelter or better conditions, sooner. This behavior is sometimes contrasted with that of cattle, which typically run away from storms, and end up staying in them longer. So, while it's a compelling metaphor used by motivational speakers, it’s also a real behavior observed in nature." [ ChatGPT: https://chatgpt.com/c/683c6e98-f6b4-8008-b3a2-e22489a98bfe ]
The Bison's storm behavior is a metaphor for how to deal with challenges in life. The idea is this: By facing a challenge head on, you can limit the amount of time you spend in it, and minimize the pain and frustration you experience.
This is how our Hero ... The Bison ... addresses challenges. He does things this way because it is the fastest way to accomplish his Goal.
What is the Goal?
The goal is to fix the problem. We want to fix the problem by taking an aggressive stance on raising awareness. How do we do that? Well, first of all, we acknowledge that everything that matters to people runs "downstream" from culture. Culture is first. Culture is King. Therefore, in order to bring heightened awareness to the masses, the message used needs to be cultural.
Addressing Cultural Challenges
Why is This Important?
It is important to address cultural challenges because it is too late to fix them once they evolve in to a safety problem. Once these problems become large enough, they attract our enemies of the United States. And if our enemies fan the flames our own problems, well enough, then they can set up a toxic dynamic inside of our country. Once they do that, they can wage war against us while at the same time denying it. They can tear the country down, and then ... invade with ease ... without worrying about a single person fighting them once they get here.
The Invasion
Keep one thing in mind: if we are ever invaded by a foreign military force who reaches our soil and starts shooting at us in our own country ... I suspect that we will all immediately stop complaining about all the things that mattered to us the day before the invasion occurred. All of a sudden, in a matter of mere seconds: it won't matter that a person has a different skin color than you; it won't matter that a person has a different opinion about something than you; it matter that a cop supposedly didn't do his job properly and also didn't receive proper discipline from the police department; it won't matter that an educator supposedly steered some kids down the wrong path while they were in his or her classroom. None of this will matter.
Many people glorify being "ready to fight" or "willing to resistance" (i.e., defying your own country) like it is some kind of cool trend or fad. But ... trust me ... when war comes to your door step ... you won't like it, one bit. You won't like it at all.
Check out this movie if you want to really see what real war feels like when it's fought in your hometown:
Civil War (Trailer):

The Aftermath
After an invasion gets underway, and you see the dead bodies, death, and destruction ... you will PRAY TO GOD that any one ... even someone who disagrees with your political views ... instantly forgets about those disagreements ... picks up a gun, and starts shooting at the same outsiders that you are shooting at.
Furthermore, all you will want for Christmas is that the foreigners are dealt with. And you would be willingly to fight alongside anybody and everybody who will fight along side you; anybody who will help protect the country from a common enemy. You'll be grabbing the first thing in sight to try to stop the outsiders ... and you won't care whether the person fighting next to you agrees with you or looks like you. Be it a different skin color, a police badge, or even an ankle bracelet attached to their ankle (because they just got out of jail). It WON'T matter.
In 5 seconds flat, all Americans will be best buds, instantly. And all of us would start working together to repel a common enemy. Why? Because no American who is living here in America wants to be forced to speak Chinese, Russian, or Korean in their own country!
Address Cultural Toxicity Through Old School Revitalization
Cultural toxicity can lead to a lot of bad things. The best approach to preventing it is to avoid it. There were fewer societal challenges a few decades ago. Every one agrees with this statement. Therefore, we should all move things back to the Old School instead of simply accepting a new "status quo" and then wondering why everything is so 'effed up. Read on. Enjoy the ideas. And reach out to us if you are willing to help.
Bring Back Old School Cars
Old School Cars Were Easy to Own
Old School Cars were easy to own. One reason why they were easy to own is because they were easy to understand. If you had one, you could go to the local auto parts store and pick up a Chilton Auto Repair Manual. These manuals had instructions, pictures, and part numbers for your vehicle. It made it easy to understand an issue your car may have and easier to get the part and fix it yourself.
Old School Cars Built Confidence in Their Owners
Old School Cars built confidence in their owners. It was possible to take care of your car, yourself. Or, if you let a mechanic repair something on your car, you could feel confident that you understood what the repair was that was needed. This way, you did not get ripped off, lied to, or overcharged. Those who had these cars had a lot of confidence in our ability to take care of them.
Old School Cars Were Easy to Customize and Make "Your Own"
Old School Cars were also easy to "customize." For example, if you had a Chevy Camaro made in the 1960s, you could make specific decisions about how you wanted it to drive, how fast you wanted it to go, or even the kinds of instrumentation that car had in the dashboard. You could upgrade the carburetor, upgrade the shocks, or upgrade the seats. You could put in six-point racing seatbelts that held you in-place like you were going 200mph. You could also add music to your vehicle, and that really made for a fun ride! "Customizing your ride" was a kind of "right of passage" for a young man, and it was fun!
The Technology in Old School Cars Was Manageable
The technology is Old School Cars was easier to manage than the technology found in more modern cars. Old School cars did not use a "onbaord computer" ... so ... if the engine went bad you could replace it without having to also spend $3,000 - $5,000 on the car's computer. Technology added to more modern cars have made it impossible to repair them, yourself, and hard to get computer chips and computer-based parts for your car when ever you needed to do something to the engine.
Old School Cars Were Easy to Pay Off
Old School Cars were also easy to pay off. If you had taken out a loan on your Old School Car, you knew that the car payment and the insurance were the only two costs associated with the car. But, with modern cars, there is a monthly cost to the radio (Sirius or XM Radio), and a monthly cost to GPS services (On-Star). It's much better to use an Old School car's radio for free and pay one-time for a Garmin Car GPS, instead of paying for these services each month, in perpetuity. In this way, an Old School Car could be paid off and then driven with only the cost of the gas for where you needed to go.
Conclusion
We need to re-establish and bring back Old School Cars.
Bring Back Old School Living
Old School Living is Independent Living
Old School Living is an approach whereby you acknowledge that the goal is to live as independently as possible ... with the least amount of outside assistance. This also means that there is an emphasis placed on "deeded purchases" that result in "completely paid-off" ownership.
The outcome of Old School Living should be that you own your paid-off home, own your paid-off car, and own all the items in your house ... that should also be paid off.
Old School Living promotes independence because as people start to live with more ownership, they gain more control over their own daily decisions. They become more capable of deciding how to live, what to do, and when to do it.
Old School Living Promotes Confidence
Old School Living also builds confidence. Once someone finishes paying off their home and car, they feel better about themselves. If they have a family with kids, then taking this approach sends a strong message to the children that they should also strive to pay their items off when they become adults. This approach builds confidence not only for the current household. It also builds confidence in the generations of people who follow.
Old School Living Promotes Safety
Old School Living also increases safety. It does this by promoting independence. Independence enables people to choose those who they allow around them, and exclude others who don't have their best interest at heart. In this manner, safety is increased as the person is able to control the company they keep ... because they have control over their independent living space.
Conclusion
We need to bring back Old School Living.
Bring Back Old School Policing
Old School Policing, Not Ancient Policing
Old School Policing should be brought back. And when we say this we don't mean Ancient Policing. By Ancient Policing we are referring to the reason why the police were created in the first place ... to find and return runaway slaves to the slave owner. This is obviously a horrible goal for any Modern Day institution to have at its core. So, no we do not support Ancient Policing. We support Old School Policing, as we define it.
Old School Policing Was Respectable
Old School Policing should be brought back. Old School Policing ... not Ancient Policing ... was respected. (See the previous section for a description of Ancient Policing, which we do not support.) Old School Police Officers were considered helpful. They protected the neighborhood.
An Old School Police Officer Knew the Community
The police used to know who lived in the community. They used to know who had kids at home while the parents worked at night. They used to know who needed help. And who didn't. And they used to know who in the community they could trust.
Conclusion
Trust needs to be re-established with the police. Bring back Old School Policing.
Bring Back Old School Politics
Politics Isn't What It Used to Be
Politics is nothing like it used to be. Those of us who have been around remember when it wasn't this way. Others who have not yet reached their 50s only know how things are situational, currently. They are more complacent with the way things are. And that is precisely why this project is so important. Those of us who are older have to do something to repair today's more toxic political culture, before time moves on, and every body forgets about how things used to be. Politics has become toxic. And its in need of a detox.
We Don't Pay Attention Anymore, But We Should
Politics has become toxic, and that is why many young people do not pay attention. The parents? They paid attention. But the younger group? Nope. Why? Because of what they see on TV when they do pay attention. But even though many of us do not pay attention, that doesn't mean we should keep it this way. What politicians do is important; it affects all of us.
We Need to Be Educated About Politicians
In order to understand our politicians better, we should educate ourselves about the challenges they face. We should educate ourselves about how their career affects their personal lives; how their family members are affected; what dangers they face.
What Is the Biggest Problem with Politics Today?
The biggest challenge that politicians face is the nonstop efforts that are constantly being made to control their decisions. Once we understand these issues, as well as others, we can identify the "stressors" that politicians face and help them reduce them. This will result in their ability to think more freely and act without interference, disturbance, threats to their family, or other efforts at controlling their decisions. Helping politicians govern better is exactly the same as helping ourselves.
What Can Happen If We Don't Fix This?
Failure to assist politicians with the challenges that they face has dire consequences for the country as a whole. It allows others who have not been elected in to office to control those who have "under the table." This in-turn creates an entire "army" of individuals who can force politicians to do things that are not good for our country. Furthermore, the fact that these people keep getting away with it creates a "recruitment boost" for them. They can approach other and offer the "inside track" for anyone who joins them and helps them control politicians. The best thing to do is to remove the "under the table" control system.
Pay Attention to Overseas Activity, Not the U.S. News
Pay attention to what is happening with our enemies overseas. Do not just pay attention to what is on the news INSIDE the United States. That is not a complete picture of everything that is occurring that It a concern to the United States. Do your own research and stay up-to-date on things like the Anti-American League, the World Health Organization, and any other phenomena that may threaten our country.
Old Time Political Stroll - Classic Politics
This video is an example of raising awareness for positive politics. This video is a remake of Bob Seger's "Old Time Rock and Roll." This song was played during an iconic moment in the 1983 famous movie: Risky Business. It is a classic Rock and Roll song and in this video the lyrics have been changed to talk about "Classic" politics and how things were much more civilized between politicians, back then. We need to do every thing we can to bring that back. (Note: I do not own the rights to the instrumentals in this song.)
Old Time Political Stroll - Get Well Mitch
This video is an example of raising awareness for positive politics by writing a "cover" wishing that Mitch McConnel "get well soon" after he had been in the hospital back in March of 2023. This video is a remake of Bob Seger's "Old Time Rock and Roll" with "Get Well Mitch" twist to the lyrics. "Old Time Rock and Roll" was played during an iconic moment in the 1983 famous movie: Risky Business. It is a classic Rock and Roll song and in this video the lyrics have been changed to talk about "Classic" politics and how things were much more civilized between politicians, back then. We need to do every thing we can to bring that back. (Note: I do not own the rights to the instrumentals in this song.)
Conclusion
We need to bring back Old School Politics.
Bring Back Old School Medicine
Old School Medicine Was Simple
Old School Medicine used to be simple. Straight-forward. And in some third-world countries, it still is. You had some ache or discomfort? You told your mom or your grandmother. They said "Go out there and get one of them leaves off that [whatchamacallit] tree, put those leaves in a pot, heat 'em up, and then rub 'em all over your body." After she said this, a youngster might not even understand why they had to go through all of that. But, after they did, they felt better. Our elders knew things.
Some of the Best Medicine Was From Nature
Many of our elders knew of remedies and resolutions to sickness that were either free or easy to administer. Many of these remedies are natural and available out in nature.
We need to start promoting these remedies more and using them to introduce more and more people to ways to solve their medical problems without having to spend on medical care.
Old School Medicine Involved Taking Responsibility
The medical industry should promote the people who are taking responsibility for their own health issues and choosing to use some natural remedies instead of burdening the healthcare industry with subsidizing a dose of medicine for them.
It is a burden to keep providing every one with paid-for-by-the-government solutions to problems when there might be free solutions to those problems. Therefore, educating people about how to resolve some of their medical problems with natural or free remedies would get society one step closer to being able to take care of itself by lowering healthcare costs.
Conclusion
We need to bring back Old School Medicine.
Why Is It Important to Bring Back the Old School?
Why Is It Important to Bring Back the Old School?
IT IS IMPORTANT TO DO THESE THINGS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Why is it important to bring back the Old School? It is important because the Old School approach provided us with what we needed without exposing us to undo anxiety, control, or manipulation. The bottom line is that these Old School approaches better promoted humanity; it didn't threaten it.
Bringing back the Old School is not just something that should be done because it is "trendy." It is something that should be done because it would result in a safer country. It would also result in better protected families and fewer people at risk of dying in a war.
In the end, just keep one thing in mind:
People are Just People.
Love is King.
Everybody is Family.
We Are Tribe USA.
How Can We Maintain the Old School Once It's Back?
How Can We Maintain Old School Once It's Back?
Once these Old School approaches have been successfully implemented, they need to be monitored.
Why do these approaches need to be monitored? For two reasons:
(1) To ensure that these approaches stay the way they are implemented and not ever changed and turned into something negative, and
(2) To capture factual statistics about reductions in societal problems like crime and alcoholism that come as a direct result of the implementation of these Old School approaches.
Constant monitoring can be done by setting up a commission that can use the latest advancements in analysis to query data across the country, build up proxies, calculate measures, and produce monitoring reports on the results. In this way, the United States of American can be the first country to monitor the health of its own country in a day-to-day live-feed manner.
If this approach is successful, the result is for the first time in the history of the United States ... there will at last be an "early warning system" that the country can use to figure out if danger is on the horizon in terms of social unrest, crime, poor health, and a host of other indicators.
Furthermore, the enemies of this country know full-well that the key to winning a future war is to poison the inside of the country in the present, beforehand. An early warning system such as the one described here would serve as a way to warn the citizens of this country ahead-of-time as to the dangers that may start to form when increases is social problems start to occur. Such a public monitoring system could enable private citizens to keep an eye on an issue, and take action when a problematic trend starts to develop. This would result in:
(1) mitigation of the risk of the problem growing larger and becoming harder to handle; and
(2) mitigation of the risk of the problem attracting attention from our country's enemies who would see it as an opportunity to "fan the flames" and make the problem even worse.
In closing, we need to take this seriously. Monitoring the survival of Old School approaches is not just a "trend" ... it is a "weapon" against our enemies. A weapon that could prevent "slow-moving activities" designed to bring about "slow-moving erosion" of our values, morals, integrity, and togetherness.
With constant monitoring, we ensure:
People Remain Just People.
Love Remains King.
Everybody Remains as One Family.
The intended message of this entire effort should be loud and clear:
We are Tribe USA ... Don't F**k With Us.
