This week, the UK Guardian ran a story about the controlled demolition of Great Britain, headlined “Sutton man, 61, who chanted ‘who the f—— is Allah’ is jailed for 18 months.”

Retired railroad conductor David Spring, 61, learned this week that protesting is only protected for people protesting under government-approved narratives. They gave the former conductor a year and a half in prison for what he said. The British judge scolded David, saying “What you did could and it seems did encourage others to engage in disorder.”

Eighteen months! The good news is David can now enjoy being a pen pal with our January 6th political prisoners in America.

Along with many other British, David was upset about illegal immigrants being housed for free —well, at taxpayer expense— in swanky London hotels. It was a good thing David meekly apologized to the court for losing his temper, or else they might have thrown him off a roof for insulting the prophet.

Conservatives in Britain need to get smarter. Protests won’t work. Memes will get them arrested. So they need to learn how to protest without protesting, to politely sandbag their government while coloring inside the new lines. They could, for example, submit every single form the government offers, in triplicate. They could apply for every available benefit. They could automatically appeal every traffic ticket, jaywalking fine, or minor BBC rate increase.

Jam it up.

They could pay their fines and taxes in person, in pennies, or pence, or farthings, or whatever coins the British still use. But be smart about it. First, try politely paying with a hundred dollar (pound) bill. When the bureaucrat says sorry, lads, they can’t make change, only then regretfully pull out the sack of coins.

If they won’t take cash, respectfully ask for the manager, and waste an hour of their time.

Brits, culturally skilled at passive-aggressive courtesies, could scrupulously follow every minor regulation, safety rule, and trivial mandate in ways that disrupt smooth government operation. They could use the many snitch hotlines to mass-report government accounts and public officials' posts for spreading hate or disinformation. They could file millions of small claims cases for any minor (but non-frivolous!) transgression.

They need to learn to wield the rules against the rule-makers. For instance, disabled conservatives could haltingly cross busy London intersections by degrees, stopping a few times to rest, fouling traffic. It wouldn’t take much planning to create total gridlock.

They could organize “buy nothing” days that briefly shut down the economy. They could organize mass opt-out campaigns and boycott government-friendly corporations. They could relentlessly phone their ministers and local agencies with stupid, time-consuming requests. Sorry, I forgot what you told me last time, be a good bloke and tell me again.

They could visit their local zoning offices in person, and when it’s their turn, they could hog the window, feigning confusion and asking dozens of exhausting questions until the bureaucrat goes insane and orders them out. Then the next citizen in line could step up and repeat the same laborious inquiry. They could all come back the next day and start over.

The ideas are potentially limitless. The idea is legal protests. Protesting without protesting. Quiet riots.

To help our beleaguered British cousins, add your own creative suggestions in the comments.

Shut. It. Down. This strategy exploits the great weakness still available to citizens suffering in allegedly open societies. Politely and compliantly use the government against itself. Force the government to go Full Orwell. But for Heaven’s sake, stop actual protesting. Don’t become a target. Mindless protesting only works for leftists. We are much smarter than they are. Hit them where it hurts. Nicely. Legally.

Every government, even authoritarian governments, operates solely with the consent of the citizens it governs. Just stop consenting. I hope this helps. Get the word out.

Every "quiet protest" technique Jeff recommends for England ALSO CAN WORK IN THE USA. Especially those involving paying with cash instead of credit, and snarling traffic in major urban areas ... what fun Americans could have snarling traffic around Chicago's United Center and McCormack Place next week!

I thought the same thing. Why aren’t WE doing this HERE! I smell a new revolt We The People should start.

PS - I think Jeff planted new seeds in our minds to grow - inadvertently of course 😂

my friend suggested this during CoVid Scam shutdown....overload the stores with curbside pickups, give these rule-maker fakers MORE than they demand and make it unmanageable for them...they can stew in their own poison vat of control...

Yes! Keep the cash flowing. Pay for groceries in cash. You can pay your electric bill with customer service at most grocery stores with cash. You can use cash to buy gas cards to use conveniently at the pump, or just pay in cash. This is more of a tactic to avoid CBDC and also avoid some of your data being shared by credit card companies. Ed Dowd tries to use cash for everything. He says he wants to be a black hole of data!

I use cash as often as possible, but usually use my debit card for gas because it's easier to track my gas expenses. I never even thought about purchasing gas cards with cash!

Ex-NIH Chief Confronted over Deadly Covid Shots: ‘Blood on Your Hands’

Dr. Francis Collins, the former head of the National Institute of Health (NIH), has been confronted in a restaurant over his role in pushing dangerous Covid shots onto the public.

Collins appeared to be dining with his family when a man approached his table and dropped the hammer.

A video of the confrontation emerged on social media and quickly went viral.

The former NIH looked stunned as he was called out by the unidentified man.

“Hey, Dr. Collins,” the man, who appears to be filming the confrontation, says as he approaches the former top health official.

“You and [virologist] Ralph Baric and [former NIAID Director] Tony Fauci deserve to be in prison for the rest of your lives.

“You have so much blood on your hands.

“I hope you sleep well.

“And remember the name Brianne Dressen,” he added. ...

She was left disabled by the shot.

Collins stepped down as NIH director on December 19, 2021.

His retirement came after more than 12 years as the head of NIH.

He left the position just a year after the Covid shots were rolled out for public use in the U.S.

Appeals to virtue won’t work. We ask doctors to swear a Hippocratic Oath to “first do no harm” and it makes no difference. Instead we need to remove bad structures and incentives and build new structures and incentives to force science and medicine to live up to the highest values of their profession.

1. Repealing the 1980 Bayh-Dole Act will go a long way toward restoring CUDOS (communality, universalism, disinterestedness, and organized skepticism) to science and medicine.

2. When we repeal the 1986 NCVIA, vaccine makers will actually have to improve their products and show benefits instead of just faking their data by not using saline placebos.

3. When we repeal the 2005 PREP Act the biowarfare industrial complex will face endless lawsuits (both civil and criminal) for their heinous acts.

All three of those disastrous laws must be repealed at once.

But the reforms of science and medicine need to go much further than that. We need to create the equivalent of markets and checks and balances so that scientists and doctors are competing with each other in ways that force them to better serve the interests of society.

4. All intellectual property protections for pharmaceutical products must be removed — retroactively and into the future.

The pharmaceutical industry has proven over and over again that it will abuse any intellectual property regime that exists. All scientific knowledge must be freely available in the commons.

5. The NIH, FDA, and CDC must be abolished and their leadership prosecuted for crimes against humanity.

Instead, the federal government should create a series of $10 billion cash prizes for any inventor who can develop a cure for any of the top 100 diseases. That knowledge would then be freely available in the commons for any manufacturer to commercialize.

6. The right to bodily autonomy, the right of individuals to make all medical decisions free from coercion, and parents’ right to make all medical decision with respect to their children must be enshrined into the Constitution.

And then we need a series of reforms of private and public scientific and medical institutions.

7. Liability insurance needs to be dismantled and rebuilt.

The reason doctors are following genocidal “standards of care” written by the pharmaceutical industry is because they fear they’ll get sued if they think for themselves. The liability insurance market needs to be free to reward genuine innovation and actuarial insights into what actually makes people sick and what makes them well.

8. Private health insurance needs to be dismantled and rebuilt.

The reason the actuaries at private health insurance companies cannot figure out that vaccines cause more harms than benefits is because they don’t care what healthcare costs. By law they are a “cost plus” business which means that they take the total costs of providing their service and then mark them up by a certain percentage. They never lose. But the rest of us do because they don’t look for efficiencies that would improve health outcomes.

9. State licensing board, private licensing boards, medical societies, and scientific journals need to be dismantled and rebuilt.

The corruption inside of these institutions is mind-boggling. The assaults by state and private medical boards on the best doctors in the world — Paul Thomas, Meryl Nass, Pierre Kory, and Paul Marik (among others) show that these institutions have become criminal cartels. The current leadership needs to be removed and many of these institutions must be shut down. The leading medical societies and medical journals all must be prohibited from accepting any money from the pharmaceutical industry. All pharmaceutical advertising on television and social media must be banned as well.

10. And then (just thinking out loud here) we need some sort of ungameable digital commons where every person is free to describe their reactions to individual drugs and their experiences with individual doctors and hospitals.

We need to build an actual knowledge base of real world experience as an alternative to the manipulated results from contract research organizations working for big pharmaceutical companies. In essence, we need the world’s largest ongoing conversation about what is actually happening with our health and that entire conversation needs to be protected by the First Amendment. I imagine that we could do this in some sort of decentralized way using blockchain technology. All of the data that we have right now is filtered through the pharmaceutical industry and it is fraudulent and unreliable. We need to rebuild the knowledge base in science and medicine from the ground up. Honestly, just forcing Google, Apple, YouTube, and social media companies to publish their algorithms and stop throttling people who are describing their own experience would accomplish a lot of this goal.

Get every "mail in voter" to hold his or her ballot and take it to the polls on election day, tear it up at the poll and request to vote at the poll (if an election worker claims you already voted, then by having your mail in ballot in hand, you now have clear evidence of vote fraud which must be documented).

Fox News Cut Trump's DNC Rebuttal OFF So He Found Another Way to Finish Making His Point ...

So Fox News cutting him off before he was done taking Kamala Harris and her speech apart wasn't about to stop him from finishing what he started.

He just called Greg Gutfeld who they went to after they cut him off ... imagine getting a phone call from Donald Trump doing a live show.

Heh. ...

He does come off as very genuine and authentic. Like in his mind, it only made sense to call Greg up on his cellphone and finish saying what he wanted to say since they cut him off to go to Greg's show. What is truly hilarious here is that a former president has Gutfeld's private number so he can just call him up.

This was true Trump, 100%

The "Crapification" of the U.S. Economy Is Now

The crapification of the U.S. economy is now complete. The only thing left is the tiresome waiting for the implosion of the entire travesty of a mockery of a sham. The U.S. economy has fundamentally changed, and not for the better. There are numerous dynamics behind this decay, and I'll discuss a few of the more consequential ones this month.

One consequential dynamic few mainstream pundits dare discuss is the "crapification" of the entire U.S. economy. That isn't my description, "crapification" is now in common use. If the word offends you, substitute terminal decay of quality, competition, utility, durability, repairability and customer service.

One aspect nobody seems to notice is the transformation from a society that once drew its identity from producing quality goods and services to a society that draws its identity from consuming crapified goods and services. Now that Americans define themselves by consuming, they are enslaved to consumption: to limit consumption is to disappear--and 'spending time" on social media is a form of consumption, even if no goods or services are purchased directly, as one's attention time are valuable commodities. In other words, Americans have been trained like Pavlov's dogs to consume, no matter how poor the quality and service. We just buy it anyway, and grumble over the decaying quality and service--but we won't take the only action that would impact corporations and the government: stop buying the products and services. Opt out, drop out, make it at home, cancel the service, just stop buying abysmally made junk and pathetically poor services.

By organizing a Tailgates for Trump party – we can turn your passion and enthusiasm for a fair future into REAL CHANGE! Every vote counts and when we can gather and encourage others to register and to vote Republican we can make that bright and fair future a reality!

That's not a bad idea actually.

Signs of life! Some good news appeared in the Toronto Sun yesterday headlined, “U.S. high school girls' field hockey team refuses to play rival that has transgender players.”

https://torontosun.com/sports/other-sports/girls-field-hockey-team-refuses-play-transgender-rival

The Dighton-Rehoboth Regional School District issued a statement Tuesday announcing it wouldm concede the upcoming girls’ field hockey game against Somerset Berkley Regional High School rather than play. According to reports, Somerset High has two boys playing on the girls’ hockey team, and Dighton’s coaches won’t take the risk of injury to their female players.

Field hockey is one of those underappreciated sports. It’s kind of like a cross between rugby and fast-motion croquet. The players swing hockey sticks knocking a solid and quite hard ball around a grassy field. Boys’ field hockey is almost non-existent, but where it does crop up, the players are draped head to toe in protective gear, which is not usually a feature of the more genteel female version.

Remember commotio cordis? You do not want to get hit hard by that field hockey ball.

Dighton’s coaches aren’t transphobes. They have their reasons for refusing to play. Last year, a cross-dressing male player on the rival Swampscott woman’s field hockey team knocked a Dighton Rehoboth girl’s teeth out during a game (teeth removed at 57:42), despite her mouthguard, sending her to the hospital. (The trans player who scored the teeth, Sawyer Groothius, is pictured above left.)

Folks have reacted to the great news of Dighton’s refusal to play by asking why more schools don’t do the same. It will happen. Less brave institutions must see for themselves that it’s safe first.
