Play 1. ... d6 instead of 1. ... d5.

Then the London will even LOOK dumb.

Take a look at the Old Indian Defense and the King's Indian Defense.

d6 is more flexible, though. It doesn't rule out a transposition to the Dutch if White plays something extravagant.

I used to play the Pseudo-Dutch out of a Nimzo-Indian.

I like playing it to piss off people who have no clue what they are talking about. It’s a legitimate opening.

I think the London is a good opening if you want a positional game, for example I recently got a 98.2% accuracy against my opponents 90% accuracy in a game in the London system
