None would deny. Absolutely none. That we are existing in a dark sphere. A very dark place. An apartheid nation. An autocratic nation. An absolutist nation. An angst nation. All engineered by the inverted representation of evil. PPP.

As a result a dilemma we face. Expressing discontent, without alienating. For their intent is known. Conquer and divide. Divide and conquer. Provide their half with progress, whilst the other, us, with promises. Thus, the predictable outcome. They with dollars, denying those denied. Hence, another dilemma. Communicating pain to a group bribed to be blinded.

“Pockets of Poverty?” Jagdeo’s Claim Collides with UNDP Reality

However, the seeds of doubt were sown in 2020. Seeds that bore fear. A pseudo-fear. A manufactured fear of acronym SOP. Where are your SOPs? That communicated reasons to distrust, whenever we express discontent on being perennially discriminated.

Thus, our dilemma went unresolved. Expressing without alienating? Therefore, we questioned. Is protest our answer? Not the protest you know. Not the protest they know. De novo protests. Economic Boycott. Civil Disobedience. A binary protest machinery against PPP Jim Crowe discrimination.

Protest March 

However, before exploration of the unknown, we first examine the known- Protest Marches. For the Protest March we know, they also know, thus was demonised to destroy. Which means, when we take to the streets, peaceful and peaceful, their goons will Infiltrate. To execute crimes to falsely incriminate. Where false Incrimination propels their police. To shoot. To teargas. To arrest. To execute. To display on their media. To reinforce their narrative. Terrorist. Thugs. Thieves.

Thus, the Protest March efficacy we interrogate. What data supports it’s effective? For the beatings we recall. The abuses we recall. The indiscriminate shootings we recall. The false imprisonments we recall. The five years and counting, in solitary confinement we recall. The goons infiltrating we recall. The deaths we recall. In fact, a tall order it would be, identifying a Protest March that brought social, political or economical benefits. Thus, the enquiry. Why risk the lives and freedom of our people? No justification. Which means, Protest Marches should be of last resort. Thus, alternatives we appraise.

Civil disobedience 

For PPP are the masters at weaponising- The Cyber Laws. Where in a wolffish pretentious ultra-sensitive disposition, innocuous words would provoke emotional distress. Then in simulated emotional distress, Psychologist they’ve rejected, rather seeking their AK47 Police. To intimidate. To arrest. To charge.

But of their feigned emotional distresses, enough we’ve had, so emphatic is our message, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. We will no longer sit idly by, as our democratic rights are abused. For Civil disobedience will visit them. On our social media. Printed media. And all media. As free speech we express. Jagabat. Trench croppo. Tadpole et al.

For this we know. Thus shall share. It isn’t a criminal offence to offend. In fact, the right to offend is an inalienable right of free speech. Which means, any of ultra-thin skin who are offended, can express displeasure. However, gagging free speech is unconstitutional. So is prosecution. So is maiming. So is murder. Which means, silence is no longer an option. For their sword is to our jugular. Therefore, the time is now, for disobedience through Civil disobedience, of this unjust law. For Civil disobedience, Dr. Martin Luther King’s employed, against Jim Crowe laws. Therefore, Civil disobedience we shall employ against their draconian, Cyber Laws.

Economic boycott 

Which leads us to the jocular. Pants wetting jocular. Of PPP characterising Economic Boycott as racist. Even though it’s older than time- 19th century. For implemented it was by Dr. Martin Luther King, in the Rosa Parks Montgomery Bus boycott. Which wasn’t racist then. So not racist now.

Thus, this Economic Boycott shall take root in PPP fertile ground of discrimination, targeting they who reap her fruits. Which mean, Roy Beepat’s malls, stalls and halls shan’t see our monies. The big and small, that support the racist PPP, shan’t see our monies. The black pudding lady who endorses PPP, shan’t see our monies. The billionaire businessmen supporting a racist PPP, shan’t see our monies. For it’s our monies. Therefore our choice.

For our discrimination is clearer than the summer skies, yet evidence they demand, which we provided, to be rejected. Then the Prodigal Son, Nigel Hinds brought to their eyes, evidence of their discriminatory budgetary allocations. Thus, Dr. Ashni Singh, their Race Propaganda Emissary, stood cocky erect, in labelling Nigel Hinds racist and anti-Indian. But now blindsided by Nigel Hinds’ inquisition on their discriminatory budgetary allocations, he has transitioned cocky erect, to flaccid, feeble and flagging. For it has been months without an answer, from the cocky erect Dr. Ashni Singh. Raising concerns and theories in equal measure- He is busy balancing the NRF books. He is afflicted with a protracted ethanol hangover. He was checkmated into somnolence. His criminal charges were reinstated. His computer was hacked by the emotionally distressed GECOM jagabatt. So we questioned. What’s there to hide? If monies allocations were equitable and above board, as they claim, then why are the numbers being hidden like an unwanted pregnancy.

As a result, our discrimination evidence was submitted. Evidence beyond innumerable. Evidence exceeding the unaccounted stars. Evidence voluminous, to easily fill all of PPP potholes. Nonetheless, those who once advocated democracy, are of a deafening silence. For their malls are wide open, like Jagdeo’s living room, to Chinese investors. For their luminous lights, directed on the recount Arthur Chung Convention Centre, aren’t illuminating PPP undemocratic acts. For their democracy Facebook postings, from Gerry the bush pilot, have crashed landed in the jungles. For their PSC democracy vocal cords are now being rested, as per the honorary doctor’s advise.

And for these reasons, our Christmas monies they shan’t see. For we will only patronise those who speak to our interest. Thus, our Patronage List will be disseminated. Excluding PPP and their proxies. Such that, when they stand expectant of our Protest March, we shall hit them where it hurts. With our Protest Money.
