Put Pro in Protest & Potlatch

Protest Strategy overplays ecological benefits, and becomes another plank in the Liberal claim to be democratic; quanta gives way to quality in life. Speaking for our Family, Skidegate Village believes in feeding those who visit our home, and deplore images of purported leaders skulking behind barricades, so yes Protest is a significant tactic but when it lacks positive ideas, or appears form a religion where certain social dynamics prompt attendant fetishes, drama to provoke feelings relying on Rome-vs-Christians dialectics; public protest as a civil action is based on the rights and claims derived from the Revolutionary Republican Patriarchy that turned away from the British Monarchy, but the earlist Revolutionaries who raised banners for common laws among the classes and the races, were Buddhist Monks. Buddha laid the ground for Communism, for Liberalism, indeed for the Christian Church. Forget Trotsky and Lenin, close your Marx and Engels, go back to Sun Tzu and the Monk movements that liberalized Old China when the War Lords and Mandarins tolerated no protest. Ghandi later resorted to Satyagraha, spirit-force, to drive the British from India; Spirit is absent from modern Protest for the same reason that it is a non-starter in the Establishment, Church being a mere pacifier to people sated on cream. Struggle can't be faked, there must be stakes and a real prize, and this invites suspicion that demonstrations are choreographed and mere maudlin skits of what their organizers think protest would look like if it were genuine. Wihout these skirmishes what would the media do? What message would emerge? Ecological? There is the Spectre over the Banks. Ecology, and ecology that rewards her warriors, will overthrow the boys.


You must first have enough belief in common with your enemies to be able to contend with them; unless the world learns about any differences, the audience is left without any feeling, and becomes normalized by the violence. You have a losing mentality when you continue to mimic earlier behaviour since the gains won then are generally enjoyed by your market audience. The only vacancy open to postmodern revolution is in the Imperial Palace: we first take the Planet, then the street corners. Pose the following scenarios in which the Nation States subject themselves to serious discussion on how to concede sovereign power:

A. Incapacity to deliver services; services delivered by better ecology; redundancy.

B. people present petition supported by global paradigm.

C. police and armies cross the bar. Judges adopt Global laws; people domicile themselves

Only an Idea and an Identity have power to bring change in all these scenarios, while current programs of Protesting display neither, and must depend on negative vilification based on stereotypes that alienate the population even further; the media ends up able to edit the message to suit their own agenda as well. But meanwhile, Global politics suddenly fit inside the computer monitor, so the open channel to the Global consciousness now exists which cannot be regulated - this is the new wild west.

Potlatch opposes the Status quo at the level of reality, challenging the church to defend Nazi Liberalism, which is what these faux-democracies are, the axis at bigger tables. Skidegate brings Individualism and Community to an ecological Imperialism of the world People. In two words the Idea and the Identity of the future is launched. Skidegate Village is the higher paradigm inhabited by the Planet's 'higher power.'

Sun Tzu teaches, love yourself as your enemy hates himself, while the heavens destroy his house around him.

Where is the beef in Protests?
