New methods are called for
Advertisements [?]
I've already posted this to another thread, but the thread seems to have disappeared. (Weird, didn't look like flamebait to me.)

I'm not calling for violence. Someone had to invent the sit-in, didn't they? And it worked because it was unexpected. The opposition wasn't ready for it.

We're using the traditional methods: writing letters, having rallies, going to demonstrations and marches, all the things we've done in the past. All the things our opposition is ready for.

We need to do some brainstorming and come up with some new ways to take on the powerful. I agree that we probably shouldn't do it online; they're monitoring the 'net. I just throw this out in the hopes that folks will start doing some thinking and passing around word the old-fashioned way.

Although I suppose we could pass a code by hand and then talk in it online. . . . We'd probably need our methods decided before that, though.
