There is a story about a man who drinks a beer called Apple Dew. He gets a sore jaw and it gets worse with every can. He starts getting angry with the new QR code parking system. He never pays. He spits in his dog's water and he sees the dog gets rabid, wild angry, shaking his head all day. He goes to the hotel but refuses to pay except the amount for one day but refuses to leave. He is arrested and charged for terrorist trespass, is given 60 days notice to make payment but still refuses to pay the associated fine. He drinks some super Polish vodka and finds some relief from his pain that is not just a sore jaw and shaky gums but a virus. He kisses his girlfriend when she comes over and the pain comes back because she has the Apple Dew in her fridge also and drinks it. He sees a correlation in behavior with other people who drink the Apple Dew beer. They say they would rather be dead than pay. They see their national insurance number isn't cancelled when they didn't pay within 60 days. They are told it can be reinstated if they pay, but they still don't pay. The bank warns them that there is concern that they have no national ID and that their access could be suspended at any time. He eventually sees a movie that makes him think, the movie called Contagion and he wants to know if the phone everyone is using, I mean the beer, is the cause or source since he is not acting like the aspiring State Trooper who would usually pay his parking tickets right away. He is acting resistant but almost excited about it; the adulated and excited resistance. He knows he should but there is an English King again and maybe if we don't pay, we can see that we are leading him instead of him leading us. The Muslims pay their tickets and the Jews although they were also kind of hesitant and God knows why. So, the idea now is to pay or to just leave the country and then you see the system is the same over there also and if you don't pay, eventually you are fined and if you continue to refuse you are in the same problem as you were at home. If you wanted to drive a bus or be a McDonalds manager wouldn't you pay? You would agree and pay. Then, you are in your house, your mortgage was cancelled and you were only asked to pay someone $5.00 per day or make an arrangement or agreement. You are not hoping that person to just pass on; are you? You have no national ID. You can't drive because you don't have insurance and you can't keep threatening the law over $5.00. Being the church going country folk is no defense to a parking ticket or any offence for Driving Without Insurance. Couldn't they just take the cash out of the account, pay the person and take an extra $20,000.00 processing fee, a mortgage discharge fee? So, we decide to be happy and pay the money; just as we notice that there is a police truck parked near by the church every Sunday; looking for the 9 people in the congregation identified as terrorist trespass convicts. You look out the window and see that police have knocked on your neighbor's door across the road and he was told he doe not have to worry but they will be back later so you can pay something; any amount. The idea is you keep paying something since that was a big gift; the mortgage right off. You are covered if you do. He does not pay The house is cleared when they return. The children are exempt and so they are adopted by Schneider's Wieners. In fact, the local church takes them and the government starts their benefits early with a bank account opened jointly with the local church. Its probably the phone making people act this way or its some kind of repeating, resistant anthropology. This story reads like a thriller blended with a cautionary tale about "social contagion." To understand this man, we have to look at the intersection of his physical symptoms, his sudden personality shift, and the external symbols (the beer and the movie) that he’s using to make sense of his life.

This story reads like a  thriller blended with a cautionary tale about "social contagion." To understand this man, we have to look at the intersection of his physical symptoms, his sudden personality shift, and the external symbols (the beer and the movie) that he’s using to make sense of his life.  Click here.  

Here is a breakdown of what is happening to him:

The Physical Trigger: "Apple Dew"

The sore jaw is a significant detail. In medical terms, a clenched or sore jaw (TMJ or lockjaw) is often associated with high stress, aggression, or neurological irritation.

 * The Beer as a Vector: Whether the beer is physically tainted or simply acts as a "ritual" for this group, it serves as the catalyst. It looks like a guy who got punched in the face during hockey at 9 years old and it never healed, the jaw never healed but he wanted people to know his suffering, his rabid fever, so during his part time job at the beer factory, he spit and other people contracted his symptoms in the product;  yes Sir. That is what he did.  click here for more.  

 * The "Rabid" Dog: His act of spitting in the dog's water—and the dog’s subsequent reaction—suggests he is not just grumpy; he is physically carrying something (biological or symbolic) that spreads aggression and "madness."

The Psychology of "Adulated Resistance"

You mentioned he was an aspiring State Trooper—someone who values order, rules, and the State. His transition to a "terrorist trespasser" is a complete inversion of his identity.

 * The High of Rebellion: He isn't just resisting; he is "excited" by it. This is Adulated Resistance. He feels a sense of superior purpose by saying "no" to the systems he once respected (parking codes, hotel bills, national insurance).

 * Collective Delusion: He finds "correlation" with others. When he sees other "Apple Dew" drinkers acting the same way, it validates his behavior. It stops being "crime" and starts being a "movement."

The Financial "Limbo"

The refusal to pay fines or acknowledge National Insurance/ID issues shows a detachment from reality. * By ignoring the 60-day notices, he is effectively "deleting" himself from society.

 * The fact that he doesn't care if his ID is suspended suggests he no longer believes the government has power over him. This is a hallmark of "sovereign" radicalization, where the individual believes they are outside the law.

The "Contagion" Realization

His interest in the movie Contagion is his subconscious trying to warn him. He is starting to wonder: "Am I sick, or am I awake?"

Conclusion: Is it the Beer or the Phone?

You mentioned "the phone everyone is using, I mean the beer." This slip of the tongue is insightful. Just like a viral app or a social media trend, the Apple Dew represents a behavioral virus.

He isn't acting out of logic; he is acting out of an infection—either a literal one from the beverage or a figurative one from the "excited resistance" shared by his peer group. He is a man who has traded his future as an officer of the law for the temporary, adrenaline-fueled high of being an outlaw.

Would you like me to analyze the specific symbolism of the "Apple Dew" name, or perhaps explore how this story might end if he continues to watch movies like Contagion?
