@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

2019-03-14 02:36:55 UTC  

Seems even worse because at least self immolation's intent is obvious, while destruction seems easy to spin in a way that lessens support not attracts it.

2019-03-14 02:37:15 UTC  

It is defiance.

2019-03-14 02:37:20 UTC  

Also write a very stern letter to the King of the EU about how in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another. Trust me this shit i gold.

2019-03-14 02:37:58 UTC  

Your aim is to send a message that your national spirit is too strong to subjugate.

2019-03-14 02:38:36 UTC  

If you fail, well, you tried. If you succeed, someone else will be inspired.

2019-03-14 02:39:11 UTC  

Success is NOT GUARANTEED. So be prepared for failure. On your own terms.

2019-03-14 02:39:17 UTC  

Are you so sure that ANY action can only have a positive effect or none?

2019-03-14 02:39:34 UTC  

Because that specific idea of harming trade I can see backfiring

2019-03-14 02:39:47 UTC  

No. But I do know that inaction cannot help you at this point.

2019-03-14 02:39:58 UTC  

Actually making me a common enemy between the gov and the people.

2019-03-14 02:40:11 UTC  

The people will suffer.

2019-03-14 02:40:27 UTC  

They will either way.

2019-03-14 02:40:41 UTC  

Surely minimising that is something worth taking into account

2019-03-14 02:40:47 UTC  

Or is that just a tactical weakness?

2019-03-14 02:41:15 UTC  

But it can be either a short lived suffering to save them, or a long term, less obvious suffering that destroys their spirit.

2019-03-14 02:41:40 UTC  

Of course, do not harm innocents.

2019-03-14 02:41:45 UTC  

Here this is a good template. Send something like this to Brussels;

2019-03-14 02:42:23 UTC  

You could find a group of likeminded people and storm an armory.

2019-03-14 02:42:47 UTC  

Will definitely get you killed and send a message that you were trying to revolt.

2019-03-14 02:43:31 UTC  

Or I mean listen to Ender LARP....

2019-03-14 02:43:59 UTC  

I would already be dead over there. But I'm not British.
