Understanding the culture of resistance:

Resistance to foreign occupiers and oppression used to be defined as a legitimate struggle, recognised and sanctioned by the United Nations, the Geneva Conventions and the rules of war. Today however, almost universally, resistance movements are routinely categorised as terrorist organizations.

“A Man came into a Wood one day with an axe in his hand, and begged all the
Trees to give him a small branch which he wanted.
The Trees were good-natured and gave him one of their branches.
What did the Man do but fix it into the axe head, and soon set to work
cutting down tree after tree.
Then the Trees saw how foolish they had been in giving their enemy the means
of destroying themselves.”
- Aesop

Greenpeace launched a competition to rebrand the BP logo. Some of the results are quite good but I wonder how many hammer and sickles we would see if we rebranded the Greenpeace logo.

• Also look out for MSG and high fructose corn syrup. Google the dangers, especially in food for kids. Poisoning the populace with governments #
