Reform or REVOLUTION !  The system fails.  What are we going to do about it?

Reform won't work.  Constraints on resources and planetary systems demand a completely new political and social regime.

Roger talks about the state of repression in the UK.  Thousands are arrested for civil disobedience and Roger recently did four months in jail for talking on a You Tube. 

Americans are to passive and weak to bring grievance to the street.  Or American justice would also be going 1984.

But for the time being Americans don't have the glasses on.

At 2 degrees C 1000 million will be on the move.

This is yesterday.  Watch Rodger.
It keeps you on the radar.

* I downloaded the video and stopped watching it online at thirty minutes.  This is not about being noid.  I am watching the rest from the downloaded copy.  It is noticeably better quality but that is not the reason.  I think this video is going to 'disappear'.  If America becomes as 1984 as airstrip one is now .  It would already have been pulled down.

Oh? You did not know?

Public Order Act dubbed 'the worst attack' on dissent 'for decades'

The Source

The draconian Public Order Act was given royal assent on 2 May, dramatically increasing police powers to arrest protesters. The Home Office has already cited the new Act in threatening letters to anti-monarchists. The campaign group Republic received intimidating letters this week, listing the arrest powers under the new Act. Extinction Rebellion has also received similar threats.

In fact, the Guardian reported that one 'senior' insider, who knew about the discussions between the police and the government, confirmed that the Act had been brought into force early, ahead of the coronation on 6 May.

The new Public Order Act powers include penalties of a year in custody for blocking roads, railways and airports. In addition, protesters who use the tactic of locking-on could face up to six months in prison.

Protesters who carry out actions that are disruptive to the state and private interests are already increasingly heavily criminalised. For example, on 21 April, Morgan Trowland and Marcus Decker received sentences of three years in prison, and two years and seven months for hanging a banner from Dartford Bridge about the climate emergency, stopping traffic.

 When the presenter starts to say "We don't always get to do what we want".

Then you know that someone who fully accepts the money trick is talking.  Thirty years to work the problem and privilege had more than enough time and resources.  And now privilege says we must die.  So they don't have to.

The 'nice quit life' turns out to be the most violent life of all.
