We Can Take Back the USA by Modeling the Hero Southwest Airline Pilots!
Townhall.com ^ | October 24, 2021 | Wayne Allyn Root

Posted on 10/24/2021 4:29:50 AM PDT by Kaslin

A month ago, my brand-new bestseller, "The Great Patriot Protest & Boycott Book," came out. A month seems like a lifetime ago. What happened over this past month validates the strategy I laid out. It changes everything.

My book lays out the case that America and American exceptionalism are under vicious attack. We are facing a radical communist takeover of the United States. I believe we must respond with the tactics and strategies of Martin Luther King Jr. -- with strikes, boycotts, protests, intimidation and CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE.

The great news is the pilots of Southwest Airlines have put these tactics to work. And they've proven that conservatives and patriots can use this strategy to save America.

Civil disobedience and intimidation are what liberals (i.e., socialists, communists, Marxists) have used for decades to steamroll us. A vocal and vicious minority has managed to hijack the direction of America with these tactics. Now it's time to turn the tables!

We now know two can play at this game.

Until now, conservatives have never used intimidation, strikes, boycotts or civil disobedience. The reasons why are simple. Liberal activists are vicious, violent and loud. That's because they have nothing to lose.

Have you ever seen an antifa protest? They look like they've never had a job, or a bath.

Left-wing protesters in 2020 weren't about protesting as much as rioting, looting and burning. They caused about $2 billion in property damage in the summer of 2020.

CARTOONS | STEVE BREEN VIEW CARTOON That's never going to be us. Conservatives don't riot, loot, burn or commit violence. We have too much to lose. Conservatives don't sit home collecting handouts. Our lives revolve around work.

We do all the working, spending and taxpaying in America.

We have jobs, businesses, families, assets to protect. We can't afford to engage in violence or be arrested. We'd go broke just paying the legal fees. Whereas liberals with no assets are provided free legal aid lawyers by the justice system, or free lawyers by billionaire communist backers like George Soros.

But we can copy this strategy of civil disobedience by using the one advantage we've got -- buying power. We don't need violence. We can bring this nation and economy to its knees with our wallets and purses.

Other than open borders, the main tool of this communist takeover is COVID-19 vaccine mandates. This is the "defunding of the middle class." The middle class doesn't want this vaccine. Cops don't want it. Neither do firemen, prison guards, border patrol, nurses, paramedics, the military or jet pilots. Millions of middle-class Americans will soon be fired or forced to resign. They will lose their jobs, incomes and pensions.

This is how the radical communists will make us jobless and hopeless. This is how they will make us dependent on government. This is how they will destroy first responders and the military. This is how the enemies of America create chaos, crisis, confusion, depression and division.

Liberals are ripping this country apart with their COVID-19 vaccine mandates.

We have to hit back -- HARD. Just as my book proposes, the hero pilots of Southwest Airlines just used the power of the purse. A week ago, they refused to fly. They called in sick by the thousands. Thousands of planes were grounded. The airline lost $75 million in just a few days.

The liberal mainstream media once again lied -- they made believe this was based on "scheduling issues and weather." The last thing they want is word getting out that millions of Americans refuse to take the COVID-19 jab and some of them are fighting back. That message scares government and liberals to death -- as well it should.

The first volley was shot by Southwest Airlines pilots and flight crews. The result? VICTORY. Southwest's CEO announced they will not adhere to Biden's federal mandate to terminate workers who won't vaccinate. Immediately Delta and American announced the same decision.

Bull's-eye. The airlines blinked. We won. This is the way forward. This is the model for conservatives. We do all the work. We have the buying power. Without our work ethic and dollars, every company in America is bankrupt and out of business.

This is the way forward out of the darkness -- with mass protests, strikes, boycotts, intimidation and civil disobedience.

In my next column, I'll lay out a plan that empowers conservatives, Christians and patriots to showcase the full force of our power with nationwide strikes.

As Benjamin Franklin said, we either hang together, or we surely hang separately. Together, we have the power to take back our country from these communist traitors.

The time has come for a serious tax revolt. They have denied equal representation in government. They are cancelling our representatives on every level throughout government with bias power. There is a legitimate and legal redress for taxation without representation.

If done in huge numbers it will put them on the defensive and remove this power. Hitting them in the pocket book will definitely get their attention. A few might go to jail, but throwing everyone in jail will do them no good. Inmates do not pay taxes either.

Either way they lose... Denying them revenue is the one last peaceful option over a physical revolution we have left.

There are a few businesses here in our area which refused to do a mask mandate.

I patronized them regularly.

...we’d go to plan B. Walk off the job. I pray it doesn’t come to this.

I pray it doesn’t too (I am in a similar situation and will not comply), but if it should, don’t walk off. Make them terminate you.

>>don’t walk off. Make them terminate you.<<

My company already covered that angle. They will place you on unpaid leave. Letting you languish without pay, without unemployment, without severance.

They want you to quit.

I’ve heard of a number of places doing that. Very hard to believe that it would be legal. Just a cheapshot way to get out of unemployment insurance. I would expect lawsuits over that eventually. But in the meantime it makes it hard for people who have been productive workers.

I’ve heard you can’t get unemployment or severance if you quit.

I’m no expert on this, but a corporate legal-type told me that if you make the company terminate you, you may be able to recover some lost wages if future lawsuits on this crap prevail in favor of the good side.

I am open to advice from anybody who is knowledgeable on situations like this.

If they place you on unpaid leave, first off, use that time to find a new job.
Second, file for unemployment. If you're not getting the hours you're supposed to, in many States that is grounds for unemployment eligibility.

That is generally correct. If you quit, you are choosing to leave and that disqualifies unemployment. Likewise, any legal option later won’t be argued, the company will simply say you weren’t forced out, you chose to quit, and the court will likely side with them. But if you get fired, there’s a clear you vs them line and a set battlefield to argue over. You may not win, but the court / UI will at least be inclined to listen to your argument.

Unpaid leave is usually a ‘benefit’ for the employee, a means to take a leave when you don’t have sufficient paid vacation leave or emergency paid leave to cover something for the benefit of the employee. Using it as a punishment for the convenience of the employer seems like a bad legal stance and my guess is they lose when it goes to court, as it’s effectively the same as termination, but I am no lawyer.

Thanks. I know what it is. Overseas, we called it “LWOP.” (Leave Without Pay.) But from what I understand, the employee has to request that? Or maybe the companies want to try to force that as a “placeholder” to see if this gets resolved, a la Southwest Airlines. Then it would essentially be a furlough for the employees who go along with it.

It’ll be interesting to see who blinks first. DoD contracting companies stand to lose quite a few employees from this. Enough to hinder their ability to get projects done.

Hehe...

If I got another instrument I don’t know where I’d put it, I already have an electronic keyboard I rarely use and a 70’s Wurlitzer electric piano I’m about to put on the market. 5 or 6 guitars, 2 xylophones, a flute, couple of saxes one in need of major repair, amps, PA mixer, stomp boxes...strangely enough, I don’t own a harmonica...Fender Super Reverb about to go on the market too, not going to lug that 90 lb monstrosity around any more. I have a 35 lb Blues Jr that works great.

Anyway, I kept the tv, just wired in a dvd player and use it for movies these days. Most nights I’ll pop in a movie after dinner, sometimes a double shot of southern comfort, then for 2 months or so without. Just finished the second Batman series, (Christian Bale) the last 3 Mission Impossible, the Tom Selleck made for TV “Jesse Stone” movies, have 5 of those, now getting into the Clint Eastwood stuff, Absolute Power last night. Not sure what next...Die Hard maybe...Matrix...Ice Age...Dirty Harry...Death Wish...

Decisions, decisions...
