Direct Action (posted 16 April 2006)
Here’s a recent strip from the Calvin and Hobbes reruns. This one’s going up on my door.
I’m the decisive, take-charge type! I’m a natural leader!
[Calvin points off to the left]
See! We’ll go this way!
[Hobbes turns to the right and walks away]
Have fun.
[Calvin is trudging through a muddy creek alone.]
The problem is that nobody wants to go where I want to lead them.
When we have won, this is what freedom will look like. It won’t take any ballot boxes and it won’t take political parties, let alone guns and barricades. Direct action means being able to walk the other way and just ignore them.
Happy Easter, y’all.
