Realm of the InterNutter

Thoughts, stories and ideas.

Every successful "peaceful protest" movement in history has been backed up by a militant segment - including the Indian independence...

We don’t “need” to fight the police. They are part of the 99%. They are a part that has been mislead, and deceived, and hasn’t woken up, yet. By fighting the police, the 99% are fighting themselves. Nothing good can come of that.

The right-wing media would love you to fight. It’s what they want. They need the “if it bleeds it leads” headlines to justify belittling the Occupy movement as a bunch of proto-terrorists that need to be put down.

Oakland PD is saying some protesters threw bottles, in order to justify the fact that they opened fire with tear gas, rubber bullets, beanbag rounds and flashbangs. There’s plenty of footage of their action, but not one second of any protester throwing anything. The whole world knows they are lying SOB’s.

The instant you surrender to rage and hate, the enemy has you.

Stay peaceful.

Show the world who is right.

Dear 53%

I understand your right to stand up for what you believe in. I’m all for it.

However, I believe you are labouring under some false ideas masquerading as good intentions.

If you believe that an individual has the right to freedom of speech…

If you believe that an individual has the right to peacefully assemble when they believe things are going wrong…

If you believe that an individual has the right to find work where they want to

Why Bipartisan Politics Fails

Put succinctly: they spend too much time fighting and not enough getting shit done.

I don’t follow American Politics very closely. I can’t tell the difference at a glance between Republican and Democrat. All I know is one lot (generally) cheats on their spouses and the other lot (generally) embezzles from public funds.

Back in the days before corporations could buy politicians, the folks you elected were supposed to represent their electorate based on what the majority desired.

Stay Peaceful, OWS

Honestly, it is in your best interests. I’ve read people saying that it’s time to take up arms like the Tea Party, etc.

No.

Just plain no.

The best way to outline the violence is to remain peaceful. Carry nothing more harmful than a placard. Beat nothing but drums or your own chest. Throw nothing but invective.

Let the people see that you are unarmed. That you are not harming anyone.

Be prepared for the idea that yes,

On Oakland

So, last night I found out fascism was alive and well and living in the Oakland PD.

As a concerned cogniscent being, I went searching for news. Livestreams, anything that was happening that wasn’t being blocked, DOS'ed, or removed.

My 10YO son came shoulder-surfing and asked what was going on.

I had to explain what was happening in America right that moment. I showed him swarms of police decked out in riot gear for a couple of guys singing and

Everybody Needs to Read One Book

And it ain’t the Bible.

Yeah, I’m probably going to get pwn’d for saying that, but in these days, in this situation, and with the Occupy movement going everywhere like ice cream on a toddler, this book is essential.

The book is called How an Economy Grows and Why it Crashes by Peter D. Schiff

It explains the economy problems currently causing people to be out on the streets banging on drums and shouting at the

The United States supports a set of universal rights. And these rights include free speech, the freedom of peaceful assembly, the freedom of religion, equality for men and women under the rule of law, and the right to choose your own leaders -– whether you live in Baghdad or Damascus, Sanaa or Tehran.

President Obama’s May 19 speech on the Middle East

Notice how the freedom of peaceful assembly is supposedly a universal right? Unless you’re protesting in America evidently.

The Debt Dollar - or, How the Banks Don't Have Any Money

Once upon a time, money was made out of gold or other precious metals. It was a finite resource and everyone could agree on how much it was worth.

But precious metals are heavy and hard to carry around all the time. Especially on long journeys.

People started trading coins for promissory notes that they could trade back for coins when they got to where they were going. A fairly honest system started by the Knights Templar.

Other folks quickly got into

An Interesting Proposal for OWS

Many, many critiques of OWS have been superficial, targeting the fact that the protesters wear/use/eat corporate products whilst protesting corporate greed.

I have just come up with a solution.

The Gridle$$ Movement. Hit them where it hurts.

Pronounced “grid-less”, the idea is to move off the grid in protest against corporate greed.

Grow your own food. Make your own clothes. Generate your own electricity. Take up the Freegan lifestyle as much as you can.

Buy as little as
