Why Submarine Bids Are Just Self-Sabotage for Activism Submarine bids are a tactic that looks clever on paper but often just end up hurting the cause more than helping it. Let's take a look at why these stealth maneuvers can be disastrous in the long run, especially when contrasted with direct action and transparency. First off, the Israeli flotilla incident shows us what happens when you try to sneak around established power structures rather than engaging them head-on. Sure, the activists might have scored some points by dodging legal scrutiny initially, but they ended up right back in detention anyway--and that's assuming everything went smoothly.

The truth is, these kinds of operations are high risk and low reward. When you're trying to bring attention to an issue, hiding your plans just makes it harder for supporters to rally behind you. Then there's the Polisario situation.

Their actions were so reckless they've probably set back their cause by years. It's one thing to be bold; it's another entirely to throw away any strategic advantage in a fit of frustration or desperation. Activists need to understand that every move has consequences, and diving into chaos without a clear plan often means you're just making things worse for everyone involved.

Compare this with the community lighting project in Skelmorlie. Here's an example where transparency and grassroots organizing actually worked out well. The proposal was open from the start, involving local residents who had a stake in seeing it through.

No sneaky maneuvers here--just people coming together to make something happen. That's how you build real momentum. When you use submarine bids, you're essentially playing a game of cat and mouse with authorities.

It might feel like victory when you slip under the radar for a moment, but once your plans are exposed--and they will be--you've lost all credibility. People won't know whether to trust you or laugh at how paranoid you've become. So here's my challenge: who's brave enough to argue that sneaking around is better than standing up and making noise?

Activism isn't about outsmarting the system; it's about changing it through solidarity, persistence, and plain old hard work. If your plan can't survive daylight, maybe you need to rethink what you're trying to achieve. Who's with me on this one?

Let's hear from those who think stealth is a better strategy than transparency. Go ahead--take the bait.
