Anarchists sabotage railway signalling in Bristol

because smashing the windows of a zoo in the name of FREEDOM! is fucking moronic

No. Like I said, messing with train switches is foolish.

But if you believe that the System won't be corrected from within, then you probably have to accept that dangerous, desperate action would be required against such a colossal and well-entrenched foe.

And if you have any sense whatsoever, you strategise accordingly.
What you don't do is undertake actions that endanger the people you're claiming to protect/fight for.

Unfortunately, for every strategist, there are a dozen people who see themselves as wearing the "romantic" mantle of the Victorian-era bomb-thrower. The sort of person who justifies any "collateral damage" as a price worth paying in order to make their point.

knocking over a few tele masts is not going to ake up the masses and se them throw aside their chains. Its just going to annoy people a lot. Like its the fucking tele that enslaves anyway.

 

[ViolentPanda]

No; you said I 'don't have a scooby'. Which implies that you do; otherwise, you wouldn't be able to recognize my ignorance.

It's hardly a great fucking leap from your level of cluelessness to "having a scooby". A kitten would have more of a scooby than you! Does that put the kitten in danger?

Tbf I still have a few hours unaccounted for on New Years Day

Do alcohol-induced comas count as unaccounted-for time now?

Like I said, I'd have been impressed if they'd freed even a single animal, but this was just another bit of posturing, of putting on a spectacle.

 

[ViolentPanda]

I bet there's not a dozen people who see themselves as wearing any such mantle in the entire country.

I'm not interested in what you bet, "Harry". I've heard it all before.

Over and over and over again.

Easier to address/attack the appurtenances of "the man" than to attack "the man" himself, though. Less risk of being dealt with by the spooks.

Says the man who writes about a thousand posts a day saying more or less exactly the same thing. Every day of every year.

I've lost count of how many fake wigs you've worn, so to cry obsessive is a bit log/own eye

Petit-bourgeois individualism.

I think we should all pause for a game of 'guess the banned returner'.

 

[stuff_it]

They're not fake wigs; they're real wigs.

Sounds very much like lock and light.

You can get jail for returning as a banned poster!?

unless your legal bod hates you you won't get a ten stretch for criminal damage either

Poor old ******, you always were prone to exaggeration.

Even if VP makes about a thousand posts a day (which he doesn't) and you haven't been here very long (at least in this incarnation), either you're a speedreader or you're talking out of your backside about the content of his posts. I suggest that you read a little more.

 

[Greebo]

I do appreciate that his uncontrolled windbaggery can be both prolific and wide-ranging.

Sweetie, nearly anyone's posts would be wider ranging than yours, concentrating as they do on this thread and the one about Facebook, New Statesman and LP.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

I love the assumption that because we post on here, we can't be doing more than going on marches or to the pub.

I've been posting here for eleven years. I've read the threads. In terms of 'fight the system!' type activity, the most that gets mustered, for most of the people who do such things [and that's a minority], taking part in a few protest marches, is about it.

Do you believe that radical change is possible without people being endangered, somewhere along the way?

Do you think 'The System' will give up without a fight?

You haven't been paying attention then.
