In Britain, some polite people super glued themselves together after walking calmly into Parliament to protest, stating their demands in quiet words. There are no guns, spraypaint, stink bombs, loose skunks, MAGA anything, Nazi flags or other hatred Haute couture, or politicians joining their ranks in disguise, dropping bombs everywhere.
During the protest, the people were seen being given each a cup of tea and some lovely biscuits from Marks & Spencer, and were offered seats so they didn’t have to stand for too long. Hurts the legs after a while.
They were allowed to state their demands, were listened to, and were given promises that their ideas would be taken seriously by all and sundry.
See, Americans, protest does not have to come in the form of an insurrection.
Granted, some Brit dipshit on TV had to call it a terrorist action (yes, he was white and his dick leaned to the right), and the other non-white guy, while laughing, said it’s a protest.
This is the scary part. What is protest and what is terrorism? Words matter, and politicians know this. Change a word and that could free cops to smash your kneecaps while you’re having a wee cuppa.
Politicians around the world are currently figuring out subtle ways of giving themselves more fascist powers while still calling themselves democratic.
Terror was invented at the beginning of this century, by George W Bush and Dick Cheney (and their Dept of Homeland Security – security from whom? Domestic terrorists? Or ISIS, who never even got close to your shores?).
Soon, ‘terror’ will replace ‘protest’, so that all protests become terroristic. In the civilized world, all law-abiding citizens will be turned into terrorists if they protest the tiniest thing. This is called logic and a just society and rule of law and other ridiculous buzz words that mean nothing except how the high and mighty can give themselves more power by destroying the lives of the small and weak.
The price of tea too high? Keep it to yourself, granny, or you’ll be breaking rocks in the Big House where there ain’t the kind of tea you like – and there ain’t no tea cozies!
