\"Ya

\u201cCan\u2019t get your dog to drop that tennis ball? Throw another\u00a0one.\u201d<\/p><\/div>I had precisely this much to do with the events of January 6th: I made sure people I know and love would not be there. It was obviously a mistake \u2013 and a glaring example of Trump’s baseline foolishness \u2013 if only because, in times of turmoil, a man’s duty is to his own family, his own home, his own values.<\/p>\n

Likewise today, still more obviously a mistake. Photos of everyone there would make a nice database of suspected FBI employees.<\/p>\n

But note that peaceful protest by non-Marxists is by now effectively outlawed in the United States: Any organized protest is FBI entrapment, backed up by twenty-year prison terms. To engage with any stranger is to invite lifelong persecution.<\/p>\n

The solution is simply non-cooperation. We can’t organize in the streets like the British or the French, not without risking prison, but we don’t have to. All we have to do is nothing.<\/p>\n

The tyrant’s chief fear is not of the people turning against him, but of his own henchmen. As Genocide Joe’s Fiascopade extends to three and four performances a day, the upsides to a polite regicide will sell themselves.<\/p>\n

What then? Legitimacy literally means the ongoing, uninterrupted consent of the overwhelming majority of the governed. All<\/em> government compulsion is crime, not just vaccine mandates. Withdraw your consent. When enough people do \u2013 then do all tyrants have reason to fear.<\/p>\n
