March 5th 1770, the Boston Massacre: protests framed as riots, dead civilians, used to impose greater tyranny.

December 16th 1773, the Boston Tea Party is carried out by the sons of liberty: the destruction of property in protest at the mutual expense of the crown's treasury and merchants profiting off the colonies backs.

April 19th 1775, the shot heard 'round the world: the start of the revolution, with existing plans and resources at the ready.

This timeline seems like it aught to be compressed but frankly the people need to suffer under the tyranny before they understand why it must be fought.

We are an occupied nation in the midst of a communist revolution, not a spread of colonies at the edge of the British empire and months away by sea. Existing government will be a far greater hurdle to jump, and our enemies seeks to foil us at all junctures.

The sons of liberty targeted property, and not lives, property related to an offending tax, tax being the cudgel the colonies were beaten with. We are attacked with fraudulent elections, propaganda, immigration, a corrupt and unfair "justice" system, censorship, anti-white racism, wages have stagnated for about 50 years now despite massive, consistent increases in productivity year over year in that same time where previously productivity was in parity with wage growth, the schools are incompetent or intentionally harmful, our privacy has been completely destroyed, we face disarmament, and reprisals from our political enemies and their domestic terrorist organizations, the saddest part is how oversimplified this list of grievances is, I'm probably forgetting something obvious and important too. We face government and corporate tyranny as well as their jacobin thugs so as I see it responding to all at once is best but frustrating them individually is also a worthy pursuit.

The point of the Boston Tea Party was to frustrate the British crown and the traders who might lobby it to rescind the tax over fear of future reprisals, they did this non violent action while , the tea party failed to see the tax dropped but sent a strong and reverberating message and lit a spark of resistance, it was a PR victory which painted the sons of liberty as brave and righteous(in their cause and peacefulness) and the crown's reaction exposed king George as bitter and tyrannical.

Non-violence and destruction of property can only mix to a point in the minds of people today, had the sons of liberty tried to torch the ship or the tea the levity of tea in the harbor and also the public support would have gone up in smoke, fire in particular is crossing a line into new territory, it is perceived as wild and uncontrollable and is only bad PR, just as well the only flammable frustrations we have are symbols of our enemies and courtrooms, everything else is quite flame retardant these days, and honestly the wood on a sea faring vessel back in the day wasn't so flammable either.

In two years we have yet more "elections", if I thought people would show up to vote I would suggest a "LAN party" to see what happens when their cheating machines can't connect to the internet. If I weren't so inclined I would say that frustrating the profits and daily business of those who aggrieve us in an expensive and non violent manner is what is appropriate, unless we are just jumping to rope day tomorrow.

Get creative people; I can't spell it all out for you.

Incidentally does anyone recognize ?

Dumping Tea was also a frustration to the tea drinking public but seeing as it only happened the once they got over it, but if tea dumping were a regular event I'd say it were best to only do it in loyalist ports. don't want to frustrate your own folks against you as happened during the troubles.

The tea dumping was as non violent as could be but keep in mind what came a year and a half later.

Yeah, it's not a game or fun larp. Actions have consequences, and those particular consequences are not hard to imagine.

Apparently it's pretty hard for the "honourable" john roberts to imagine.

I can't say I'd be surprised if thats true. This has been an insane week, so much shit flying at once out of nowhere. You think what Lin Wood said is legitimate? He came outta left field flaming Pence and Roberts like that publicly. He's either nuts or... I don't know.
