Shit's never going to change because we keep scheduling protests instead of protesting every day in every way possible. At home, at work; protest everywhere.
-
This is necessary to get people started out.
Gets them familiar with how protesting needs to be done.
So when shit inevitably gets worse, they and their friends who stayed home last time will be out again and likely for longer too.
You want to move millions of people to fight for freedom? Gotta get them used to the motions first.
-
Yep! I for one will be carrying a sign promoting www.generalstrikeus.com as the next big step we can take as a people against the ruling class.

This coinciding with the government shutdown could increase turnout and really fuck with city operations.
I recall the first trump term'e shutdown ending when protests shut down leguarda airport.

We sit around and bitch about the corporations caving to the alt-Reich, about Congress people just giving in to Trump, about ICE not having a conscience to do the things they do.
Yet as long as we only sit and bitch, as long as we're not fighting back in some way, we are also complicit in what our country's government does.
If you honk your horn to warn people ICE is around, you are protecting them. If you protest the regime, others will see that there's are others standing up and this is not inevitable. If you call your Congress people, you are telling them what the will of the people is, and that people are watching their actions. You don't have to do everything, but you should be doing something.
How can you expect corporations to care or Congress people to have a spine, if you won't even pick up a phone? Courage, and consciences, are contagious.

If only the conditions making these protests necessary could have been prevented....
Oh wait, you helped them happen. Enjoy the fake internet points. Can't wait to see your next agenda.
Edit: Apparently it's been forgotten that Ozma plastered several communities with articles trashing both Biden and Harris running up to the election.
Edit edit to also remind that while trashing Dem candidates, we got crickets from them about Donnie and friends. It was an obvious agenda that several people recognized at the time. They did it before and they will do it again. Wait for election year.

Oh wait, you helped them happen.
I don't think Ozma had much role in the decades-long neoliberal exploitation of the working class, the entrenchment of inoffensive focus group politics in the DNC, the persistent rightward shift of the Democratic political establishment or Biden and co. gloating about how much they were helping Israel's genocide.
Apparently it's been forgotten that Ozma plastered several communities with articles trashing both Biden and Harris running up to the election.
Imagine posting facts that don't paint ineffectual proto-fascists as the next best thing since sliced bread. Truly a crime against humanity.
-
Lol. It was a complete stream of articles aimed at discouraging voting based on a single issue while never posting anything showing that the other side was going to be worse on the same issue, let alone disastrous for so many other reasons.
Don't give me the bullshit about posting facts. I never said a thing about lies. It was selective posting to promote an agenda of not voting.
If that agenda influenced even on person not to vote, they were part of the problem. Voting is about choosing the best fit candidate, not the perfect candidate. Working to change the horrible status quo should be done outside of an election in which not voting is helping to usher fascism into the highest offices in this country.
Seeing as you're calling Biden and Harris neo fascist this entire text is lost on you. Guessing you didn't vote or aren't a US citizen, and obviously don't understand what this country lost by electing dipshit don into the presidency. Both sides are not the same no matter how delusionally you believe they are.
-
It's useless talking to Americans. They're all the same. American Liberals are just a more cunning version of Conservatives.
-
-
I think you're getting down voted because people don't know from your original comment that you were referring to OP.
But yeah. Fuck these fake leftists who rallied hard against the idea of voting for Harris over Trump, then turn around crying and shivering that their virtue signal boycott surrendered the country to fascism.
-
Yes ozma alone is somehow responsible, on a niche online forum, instead of the people poorly planning a campaign.
-
If even one person was influenced by the one-sided crap they posted, then they are absolutely responsible for contributing to the result.
I at no time said they alone made anything happen. They were doing their best to contribute to it. Stop taking my comments out of context.
-
-
It's irrelevant to what OP posted, but you are correct. I remember specifically calling them out over the endless slanted posting against Dems during the election. Never a word against Trump
-
I didn't forget
-
Good. Thank you.
-

-
The last one did nothing. This one will do nothing. If Trump is there, be sure to block his chopper.
-
STILL no kings? Is there at least an ETA?
-
Yawn.

I'm probably preaching to the choir here, but exercising your right to protest is one of most patriotic things you can possibly do.
Share that message with anyone you know who needs to hear it.
I hate MAGA's America, and will fight to kill it.
Yeah, I mean they literally founded their country via a protest which resulted in tea getting chucked into Boston harbor.
I can't believe 1700s antifa destroyed private property
And they were also in costume!
