They will call all of you terrorists, and they aren't strictly wrong. But that doesn't make you wrong, either.

2019-03-14 02:12:43 UTC  

yeah but surely the circle needs to expand, not just encourage other existing folks on this side of the proverbial fence.

2019-03-14 02:12:46 UTC  

I would be HAPPY to die for my country. For liberty. If your fellows aren't, then you have no hope, and should just sign your destiny away.

2019-03-14 02:13:19 UTC  

Do you really believe that you still have the luxury of conversation?

2019-03-14 02:13:41 UTC  

Not a luxury, a tool

2019-03-14 02:13:51 UTC  

Let those unable to fight, talk. Those who can fight, should fight.

2019-03-14 02:14:37 UTC  

Look at the American Revolution.

2019-03-14 02:14:58 UTC  

We did not invade Britain and kill King George.

2019-03-14 02:15:24 UTC  

We just showed him that to govern us, he must cut his own hand off.

2019-03-14 02:16:19 UTC  

You have to make victory for the opposition too costly. The only thing you have to lose, in all honesty, is everything.

2019-03-14 02:17:06 UTC  

There's one thing to put your own life on the line. Different when it becomes families and friends.

2019-03-14 02:17:41 UTC  

It is all at stake. If you light yourself on fire, who is willing to try and tell you that you're wrong? They will be forced to negotiate.

2019-03-14 02:18:37 UTC  

Do you love your friends and family? Do you want them to have rights?

2019-03-14 02:19:06 UTC  

People will make their choices.

2019-03-14 02:19:54 UTC  

You do not have to make them do anything. They can sit it out, most will. But what will YOUR choice be?

2019-03-14 02:20:45 UTC  

This is one of the central failings of the EU. Our forefathers pledged their 'Life and Sacred Honor' to their union. What brand of malcontent would so devote themselves to Brussels?

2019-03-14 02:21:06 UTC  

A Belgian maybe?

2019-03-14 02:21:48 UTC  

And honestly you can do nothing, that is a legitimate option. To just say you resist and do nothing else. Or make an excuse and claim that it's too far to claim your goal.

2019-03-14 02:21:52 UTC  

Hmm let me think of the great Belgian military victories. I'm drawing a blank. Maybe I should drink more?

2019-03-14 02:22:26 UTC  

You can do all that. Slaves have done so for all of human history.

2019-03-14 02:22:50 UTC  

I get it. I can man up or I can be a coward. The point of discussion I thought was about tactics. Which as the username should indicate, I'm far from an expert in.

2019-03-14 02:23:28 UTC  

@Jym what about the exploitation of the Congo?

2019-03-14 02:25:04 UTC  

@galesteppes

Leopold bought it. I mean fighting people who hadn't invented the wheel with firearms is not terribly difficult.

2019-03-14 02:25:52 UTC  

Tactics, huh? Well, first, you need to make sure that you can prepare. Get you some weapons. A hardware store is your friend. The human skull breaks with surprising ease when using a penetrating point.

2019-03-14 02:26:39 UTC  

This is why helmets are the first piece of armor you should ever invest in.

2019-03-14 02:27:17 UTC  

Err. I'man American and we do things weird. Have you considered throwing a lot of tea into a harbor and just shooting Germans until they give up?

2019-03-14 02:28:30 UTC  

If you do not want to kill anyone, then threaten self harm in a very public place, preferrably a government area.

2019-03-14 02:29:47 UTC  

A gas mask, airtight goggles, and a welding helmet will help minimize the effect of nonlethal weapons.

2019-03-14 02:30:02 UTC  

Or I mean like three votes was the margin on no-deal. You could fix that in an ellection....

2019-03-14 02:30:13 UTC  

@galesteppes I'm starting to understand this channel

2019-03-14 02:30:21 UTC  

No you can't, the vote was made.

2019-03-14 02:31:45 UTC  

Anyway, attract as much attention to yourself as possible. Wear bright colors. Hell. Set yourself on fire in a central location once news cameras turn up.

2019-03-14 02:31:50 UTC  

by the time it an election the damage is done long time ago

2019-03-14 02:32:15 UTC  

Your elections do not work anyway.

2019-03-14 02:33:15 UTC  

I kinda feel like there are steps to try before setting myself on fire.

2019-03-14 02:33:19 UTC  

And it's not like there is a valid deal on the table. Hell if the EU can't pass an extension pretty sure article 50 is already in motion. Short of a revocation that's a de-facto Hard Brexit.

2019-03-14 02:33:53 UTC  

And it's a one-shot trick

2019-03-14 02:34:12 UTC  

Or, and I mean we had a lot of success with this. Throwing tea into a harbor. It's how civilized people do these things.

2019-03-14 02:34:18 UTC  

Okay pussy, try cargo terminals

2019-03-14 02:34:47 UTC  

Sabotage trade

2019-03-14 02:35:08 UTC  

It is why we dumped tea into the harbor. That was a fuckton of money
