Time for Regime Change in BC: Government Would Waste 800M$ on Royal BC Museum While Social Fabric Disintegrates
I would ask what the fuck are they thinking, but asking the question would be denying the answer: they’re not thinking. This is the tyranny of crass incompetence in action.
You’ve read this right: amid these times when housing becomes comically scarce and unaffordable, the cost of living skyrockets, the doctor and nurse shortage threatens a hecatomb, and the mental health and addiction crisis spirals out of control, our government, led by His Ignominy Premier John Horgan, just announced its plan to invest nearly 800 million dollars on a… museum, already marred by allegations of systemic racism by the way.
This is like Louis XIV investing in Versailles while his people starve. Even the usually sycophantic mainstream media have some blunt comments to make on this move.
I’ll put it even more bluntly: our elites are out of their goddamn minds. They’re completely insane and full of shit between the ears. Even more preposterously, they’ve grown utterly contemptuous of us and disinterested in our well-being. There is no other way to put it.
What we need is a popular revolt, otherwise society as a whole will go under. This is not a joke. This is no paranoid delusion by someone who believes every conspiracy theory he reads online. This is the rational and mathematical assessment of a notoriously sceptical and level-headed person watching a social and economical train wreck in slow motion, wondering what the fuck the driver is thinking. This province, and arguably this whole country, is going under because it’s led by people glued to their Microsoft Excel spreadsheets living in a cartoonish bubble of mutual delusion, with priorities so far removed from the rest of us that they must be deposed.
Nevertheless, I’m not advocating violence, because I don’t think it’s either necessary or productive. What we need is a province-wide campaign of civil disobedience. What we need is a fucking million angry BC residents taking on the Legislative Assembly demanding scalps, while the rest of residents are on strike. Not merely change, mind you—regime change. Simply put, we have to make current authorities understand that the party is over for them, and we have to make future authorities fear us. One good look at History teaches there is no other way, because the only thing that governments ever fear is the prospect of a bloody revolution, not merely honking trucks, so we have to bring them to the brink of that, with for only choice to either shoot the crowd or abdicate.
More importantly, we need to step up our game plan. We need a proper objective and a sound strategy to make it happen. The reason previous protests such as Ottawa’s Freedom Convoy were broken is that they largely relied on magical thinking pertaining to their execution. In other words, their goals were nebulous and their tactics fell short due to lack of foresight and resolve.
To go straight to the point, we must have only one inflexible demand: the resignation of the provincial government. Nothing short of this will effect genuine change or galvanise the mob.
We also need a proper strategy. My assessment is that nothing short of a province-wide strike and a Tahrir Square moment before the Legislative Assembly will work.
Furthermore, we need proper discipline. Most protests are broken because the mob lacks resolve. Think of what the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa or the blockades at the border could have achieved if protesters had found it in themselves to hold their ground before the police onslaught. This is why the police usually succeeds at breaking the mob: they hold the line and we don’t.
And we also need proper follow-up. Merely replacing our corrupt and incompetent elites with other corrupt and incompetent elites will change nothing. Although this much is a conversation for later, I propose electing people with experience dealing with social issues, who would normally not contemplate a jump into politics. In other words, the Ministry of Health should be led by former MSF volunteers, the Ministry of Social Development by former outreach workers, and the Ministry of Justice by former justice advocates, instead of by career politicians getting a random portfolio as a reward for sucking the Premier’s dick.
We may be lacking resources, training, and leadership, but we’ve got numbers and righteousness on our side. This is a fight we can win.
I’m ready to start a popular revolt. Who’s in?
