those fuckers.
meanwhile:
Apparently, this was in defense of her transvaginal ultrasound bill.
Corbyn completely missing the point that lions are the few, not the many. Maybe they should rise like antelopes?
"Stand ye calm and resolute,
Like a forest close and mute,
With folded arms and looks which are
Weapons of unvanquished war.
And if then the tyrants dare,
Let them ride among you there;
Slash, and stab, and maim and hew;
What they like, that let them do.
With folded arms and steady eyes,
And little fear, and less surprise,
Look upon them as they slay,
Till their rage has died away:
Then they will return with shame,
To the place from which they came,
And the blood thus shed will speak
In hot blushes on their cheek:
Rise, like lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number!
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you:
Ye are many—they are few!

Thanks. I was just being snarky because I dislike Corbyn and his Cult of Left / People’s Front of Judea but it was interesting seeing where the phrase comes from.

Rise like rats.
Did you see Corbyn’s Cable Street speech?

Bad advice though.
Nonviolence hardly ever sways the people committing massacres. Where it sways people, it tends to sway those who hadn’t known what was going on, or had known but hadn’t taken sides.
bad advice is very romantic.
… sigh.
People who insist that, when neo-Nazis are marching, under Nazi flags, with torches, and beating people while police stat aside, that they need to condemn “antifa,” 'cause any kind of opposition is “violent intimidation.”
