Overnight News: Peaceful protesting? Placid protesting? With the U.S. government gunning for its own citizens, the only safe protest is prostrate protest.

They’re setting up another Reichstag Fire event. That’s what the taunting is about. With every new act of cultural destruction, the Marxists move the game their way. But their motive in baiting you is to get you to lash out in protest – so they can call you a terrorist.

When the new lockdown comes, many people will resist – as people are doing all over the world. The more kinetic their response, the better – from the Deep State’s point of view. Sometime soon, the F.B.I. will commit an enormous crime, which will be blamed on the “violent” anti-lockdown protestors.

Is the goal a national vaccine passport? Confiscation of firearms? They’ll take all the territory they can grab, under the cover of keeping the peace.

Accordingly, if you’re going to protest, you have to do it in the most inert, most abstract, most prostrate way possible: If anything you do looks like violence, you’ve already lost.

You don’t need a Gandhi, you need to be Gandhi: Just go limp. They can’t charge you for doing nothing, and I should think that simply turning off your phone – you and a few million friends – would be enough to give the Ruling Class the shits.

But if the resistance to the lockdown is not just peaceful but positively inert, the F.B.I. and its Antifa stooges will stand out even more than they did at the Capital riot.

Don’t let them blame their crimes on you.
