RE: TAKE BACK THE POWER

in #art6 years ago

Another brilliant piece Tony. Infact what you say is correct the answer is in peace not war. But there is a problem I am afraid, and Im not trying to be negative. Just share what I know about people. As a long time union man I have lots of experience of disputes with big companies. You see the problem is you will always get the wingers. They may agree about getting better working conditions and they will all vote for action but when the day comes and the Boss has told them all his woes. They will feel sorry for him. Then you get some not back the action. Then the ones that do start saying why am I losing money and they are working and if we win they will get the benifit ... Etc etc... When all they all need to understand is that if eveyone takes action and stands firm it will be over very quick. So to build a world action day would be a huge undertaking. But its not to say it cant be done. People just need to see how they have been treated over the years. Oh and don't forget governments have huge resorses to call on . Agent provocateurs are standing in the wings to make sure it wont go without violence. So we need to be more clever than them. Proper training camps etc. Remember police can control huge crowds with far less people. Because they are trained and organised. 😎

We always will get people who can't work it out but eventually they follow the crowd when they see a clear path. We live in a world full of pettiness it's a big part of the problem. Most of it comes from the current system that forces us to stand on each other to get anywhere.
The Part about the police being able to contain many people. Well If we all stay home and don't group. That creates a hell of a lot of work for them. It can't be done. Too spread out. Can't exactly come to every house and make us work. Even the churches all put together can't knock on that many doors. Bit hard to take violence to people who just refuse to participate and are not creating a scenario to bring violence upon themselves. Basically crash the system then go back and use what we need as a community. I know that won't go down well because people are exactly the way you say. I don't think it go too bad though. Because most people like a structured life. If enough people know what should be happening. These people will fall into line. They just don't want to do the thinking to get there. The thoughts never crossed their minds.
Reason I don't think it go as bad as most think is. Most people are inherently good at heart. They don't want trouble, trouble scares most people. Also look at any disaster, I've been in a few now. Cyclones in Australia and from what I see. That's when the community bands together and talk to each other, helping each other any way they can. Last one I was in I got my work crew together and we went and visited the people we all know and offered help. We took two chainsaws cleared driveways and put fences back up. Tarped off roofs thet were partly missing. All my staff were happy to come for a few days and I never paid them. Not one person was unhappy about that. They all felt great and I heard them talk of this on many occasions. They were always very proud of those few days.
Id like to do a head count just to see how many people are actually willing to do this. It could snow ball and that alone would put the wind fair up our oppressors arses. Wouldn't that be nice? Would certainly make them back off plenty.

You make some good points here Tony.
I often wonder when there is a transport strike why people strive so hard to get to work and moan about the people being on strike when the best way they could help resolve the problem is to simply say I couldn't get to work and stay at home. Adding to the preasure and helping their fellow workers in the process.

That's exactly the attitude that's need. That's people uniting right there. I have family in the truck industry here and they all know that if they all get together and stop driving. That's literally the end of this country. We have long distanceas between everything here and no trucks. That's the end of it all. These drivers all talk to each other. They all talk about this a lot. They all know their worth. They also know that if they all park on the roads it stops everything else as well. There are many industries that if they band together can stop a country instantly.
Remember Saddam. They surrounded the place and let no ships in. They need all their food brought in. Their soldiers got hungry and surrendered. No weapons were ever needed. They used them anyway, had to make it look like a war and think all the money involved in rebuilding the place. Plenty sticky fingers in that mix. My point being, we can use the same tactics, it's actually us the workers who are behind it all. The Only thing stopping people is fear of what may happen. So times will be confusing a bit tough for a short time. Big deal. Life under the current conditions is no Sunday picnic.

cuz they have to address the basic human need. food, and they fear losing their job. a large company closed down last week here in Sidney. Now the Salvation Army is feeding them.

No pain no gain. Many people have given up a lot more in the past to change things. And now we need big change. How this will come and in what form it takes I'm not sure. But it is way over due. Its time to redress the balance I think. Wish there was a reset button lol.

I wish there was a reset button too. I do not like these times. However no pain no gain really does not always work. If you read what I responded to Tony I said the world needs to spontaneously combust. Every time the world has a natural disaster people turn into humans. Helping each other at all costs. At great lengths. The true human spirit. One day we will all go poof.

I agree. One day it will just come out and people will wake up. Bring on the alien invasion hoax. That should do it. Only that will be used against us to finish of the NWO one world gumbyment.

lol there ya go
