Why Protest?

[ofgilead]

How worried would the elite be if they didn't see anybody protesting in the street at one of their conferences?

I think we could send a more powerful message if nobody cared about their authority enough to protest. If they organize a baseball game, but nobody gives a shit about playing, how could they very well play ball?

Maybe if we all shot ourselves that might irk 'em (?)

That's what we're gonna do when they make more attempts at our 2nd amendment rights.

We stand on capitol hill and have a massive water gun fight. Any body walking in or out gets tagged with a squirt gun. We will paint them to look real.

But for real, if no one put any significance on their authority then they can't very well enforce it. Of course there would be some gunboat diplomacy style raids, but they can't do that EVERYWHERE. We could break their system by no participating in it.

Stop paying into SS, stop paying for health insurance, stop letting them think they are in control.

WE DON'T NEED THEM TO TELL US WHAT WE ARE DOING IS LAWFUL. IF YOU WANT TO BREAK THE LAWS THEY MADE, JUST MAKE SURE TO DO IT WITH A GROUP OR CROWD. BUT NOT A RIOT OR PROTEST.

If no one showed up for basic training I think that would get their attention a little better.

yes right. going out of the system and creating own world. thats what some communities are doing in germany and also in other countries. doing what they feel is right to live happy. nobody can save the world alone. but if everybody tries to live how he wants to experience a happy life, then world can change. the most powerful protest is to get out of the system. but this is hard to demonstrate and a lot of people are afraid of. also if you have children... its a big decision. you need to look for alternatives in every way and use it. showing other people whats possible... and act as community. help each other... local >> national >> global....

I like what you wrote here...

Protest by sharing the truth with everybody on the internet. Its a conscious fight more than anything right now....
