When the systems of a ‘law and order’ society find no intention, benefit or reasonable expectation of safety from their established construct of government -generally driven by an intentional willingness to ignore the demands of the citizens those officials are expected to represent- eventually people take matters into their own hands.
It is fair to call this the end of the “first follower” phase.
It began when a singular voice stood boldly in righteous opposition to the violence. This person was watched by many.
Then, when that person, the original opponent to the violence is met with brutal isolation and retaliation, a first follower surfaces.
The first follower is the individual who stands up in anger against the retaliation they have witnessed against the singular voice.
This is the key moment when you can guarantee something is about to change.
The crowd watches the first follower, only at this very consequential inflection point -having watched the previous retaliation- the crowd are now invested emotionally in the outcome of what happens to the ‘first follower.’
The crowd will not accept the same outcome for the first follower. They are in a different mindset, a different frame of mind. Perspectives are completely different in this phase.
Events in Europe are at the extreme side of the first follower phase. However, events in the United States are not far behind. In fact, the reason we are watching events in Europe with such deliberate attention is entirely because our proximity to the violence at hand is not determined by miles; rather, it is determined by mindset.
WARNING of the “do not look away” image below.
Stephen Ogilvie, who is in his 40s, lost his left eye when he was attacked on a residential street at around 10.30pm on Monday.
When law & order officials fail, when the extreme threat is created by government and THEIR THREAT is allowed to exist in such a manner that it sits on your doorstep, history tells us the righteous will eventually rise up to take back control.
That moment is when the first follower stage ends and there is no containment method for what happens next.
(Via Daily Mail) – […] Sir Keir Starmer said rioters would ‘feel the full force of the law’.
He added: ‘The scenes in Belfast last night were shocking and completely unacceptable.
‘There is no justification for the violence and disorder that we saw threatening our communities, nor for those who encouraged it, online or elsewhere. It is clear that people were targeted last night because of their background and I will not tolerate it.
‘Those responsible will feel the full force of the law. I’ve spoken to the Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland to convey my thanks to them and the frontline emergency services for their bravery in keeping people safe.
‘I’ve also spoken to the First Minister and Deputy First Minister to discuss the ongoing situation. Appealing for calm must be the priority, and that is what I urge now. We must let the police get on with their work.’
Anti-immigrant protests also took place in several other cities around the UK on Tuesday night, including London, Glasgow, and Southampton. (read more)
The Irish know how to do violence very well.
The Northern Irish, the Scots and the English know how to do violence against the British even better.
If the government sponsored chaotic migration unites the Irish, Scottish and English people, the British government has a big problem. Much bigger than Prime Minister Keir Starmer will publicly admit.
Try squeezing jello in your fist and watch what happens.
Great Britain is at the end of the first follower phase.
