This is an interesting piece by the Dutchman for how all of us who believe in freedom and liberty should move forward to reclaim our country from the corrupt elites who currently think they can do anything they want without accountability.
In many ways the Canadian Truckers Convoy was a victory, and contained a # of “lessons for the future” for us all.
For instance, the J6 protests were announced, with detailed itineraries, well in advance.
This gave them the opportunity to make their plans, for the Ray Epps incitors.
The Truckers Convoy seemed to come out of nowhere, and Trudope and company believed their own narrative, that it was a small, insignificant group of Truckers.
In Australia, large protests were organised in ONE major city. No city has enough police to enforce order, when the populace peacefully withdraws consent.
But, a large protest in ONE city, enabled the LE in that city, to call around to various other jurisdiction, and “borrow” SOME personelle, in order to do “kettling” operations, to break up the protests.
During the final stages of the Canadian Truckers convoy, I watched a “tik-tock” type meeting of the City Council, berating the Police chief for not “breaking up” the protests.
He explains to them, that he called various other jurisdictions, seeking such a loan of personelle, to np avail.
Because EVERY major city, had simultaneous protests, and hence EVERY police Dept had their personelle committed, and had none to spare.
And, because of the port blocking protests, the Federal police were likewise “stretched thin” and had NO personelle to spare.
This supports the story that they brought in personelle from OUTSIDE Canada, to finally break up the protests.
So, if your going to do large protests, don’t announce them ahead of time, and make them NATIONWIDE, and consider strategies to address the bringing in of “troops” from outside the country.
I felt like the “independant bloggers” did a good job, of overcoming the MSM news blackout, and talked to many, here in the States that were eagerly following events up North.
And, the “leaders” implemented great strategies to prevent THEM for inserting “provocatuers” into the front lines, to try to give credence to the protesters being violent.
The Truckers Convoy attempted, unsuccesfully (unfortunately) to use a tactic first employed with success by the “Occupy Wall Street” movement.
When reporters and officials asked the protesters “WHO are your leaders, WHO is your official “Spokesperson” and WHAT are your demands? the protesters said “We HAVE no ‘Leaders’, no ‘Spokespersons’; we are each individuals conducting our OWN protest, and we each have our own demands.
There was no formal ORGANISATION, with a brick and mortar address, a bank account requiring individuals to be named as “Officers”, no FORMAL fund-raising/dispersement mechanism.
Officials can not go to court, to get a restraining order against “individuals congregating at the corner of,..” they need to be able to name some ENTITY or individuals.
Merchants whose business revenues were adversely effected by OWS, were similarly “hamstrung” as they would have had to try to sue each individual protester.
OWS “fell apart” without accomplishing anything, because the key ‘stand’ of each (allegedly) individual protester was that they “wouldn’t leave, till THEIR demands were met” and so officials just waited them out.
Point is, the Truckers convoy started out, adopting this strategy, but once they started raising funds to support the Truckers, “Leaders” had to step forward, and the “Strategy” unravelled.
For the future, a funding mechanism belatedly WAS established, using bitcoin wallets.
If interested, research some of the tactics and strategies implemented by the protesters in Hong Kong, as they are BRILLIANT.
For instance, they evaded the “Kettling” manuever attempts, which typically have LE taking some time to organise a large force of officers.
They used blast texts to suddenly organise in an area. As Police arrived and began forming ranks, another blast text would signal the protesters to rapidly disperse, only to re-form, say 1/2 mile away.
Police load back up in their busses, to move to the new location, ..rinse repeat.
They also perfected using UMBRELLAS, as a SIGNALLING device, to coordinate activities.
My point is, WE need to “fight SMARTER, not HARDER” ADAPT and learn from our mistakes and successes.
Since the Truckers convoy, I will always have a “special place in my heart” for my Northern Neighbors, which frankly I did not previously have.
I think there are a wealth of good ideas here about how to move forward against the enemy within our country. Everything we do should be out of sight, underground, quiet, while throwing heaping wheelbarrows full of sand into the machinery.
Do not cave into them!
You are not alone!
You can make a profound difference!
Godspeed!
