Uprising
Is a Great English Awakening at long last at hand? Has The Power finally stepped over a Big Red Line, done and said things that are too objectionable, too flagrantly obnoxious, even monstrous, to be borne without vociferous, active protest? Can these protests amount to anything worthwhile, or are we seeing just another case of way too little, way too late? Bootneck Major has a look-see.
The Dover Protest: Observations
This being my neck of the woods, I thought I’d take a trip down to see what all the fuss is about.
In fact, I can’t get anywhere near the seafront because of the extensive road closures, so I’m having to rely largely on the imagery available online.
Several things stand out.
Firstly, the tactics.
Whatever the adequacy of the police intelligence beforehand, the protest itself appears to involve considerable planning. The logistics, coordination and timing look extremely well organised.
Then there is the demeanour of the protesters. Almost silent. Non-violent. Disciplined.
Their clothing is coordinated and remarkably uniform. I use the term “uniform” deliberately.
The near-universal face covering also frustrates identification and subsequent intelligence gathering. Whether that is its principal purpose or not, it is certainly the effect.
Most strikingly, there is a conspicuous absence of the nationalist imagery normally associated with protests of this kind. Few, if any, English flags. Instead, there is a preponderance of Christian symbolism.
This creates the impression of something framed less as a conventional “far-right” demonstration and more as a cultural and spiritual show of strength.
Hmmm, interesting indeed, I think. That said, and without wishing to rain on any parades here, I do nonetheless retain serious doubt as to whether what needs to be done can ever possibly BE done without resort to what we’ll call the Kelly Bundy Option: swift and blinding violence.
Can any of us really be so deluded as to imagine that these greedy, grubby baglappers might actually step down from their cozy, too-lucrative sinecures just because of some nonviolent street protests, however widespread they may be? It is to laugh.
It saddens me no end to have to say it, but all the organization, discipline, dedication, and careful planning in the world ain’t ever gonna alter the one inescapable truth: No, it ain’t ever gonna happen. I could easily be all wet about this, and desperately hope that I will be proven so ere the end. Alas, I don’t expect to be. Back over to BM for some closing thoughts.
We should be careful about claiming to know precisely who is organising it, or what every participant believes. But we should be equally careful not to dismiss what is plainly being communicated.
These men are angry. Really, deeply angry. They appear disciplined, organised and intent on demonstrating both their frustration and their strength.
Whatever one thinks of them, that is the significant point. This does not look spontaneous, chaotic or unserious.
It looks deliberate.
And it would be foolish not to ask what comes next.
I’ll put a solid “yes” to that sentiment, and keep on wishing the best for these hardy, put-upon Brits. Godspeed to you, dear Cousins; may your efforts to reclaim your nation from treacherous, brazen ProPols in league with your demonic enemies be crowned with success. May said success enable you to return England to the English people who are its rightful stewards.
Be assured, there is a large like-minded cohort over here across the Pond who—having observed your ever more tragic plight with anguish, horror, and a choking, mushrooming fury—have been heartened by this recent protests against this patent bullshitm, confirming your flat, unequivocal rejection of the unfeeling, inhumane, self-serving skullduggery of your criminally perfidious Lords and Masters. We will be watching your progress closely, and with great interest.
