People who can strike should also go to places of work that people can’t and contribute to sit-ins and slowdowns.

Reality is a rendering of the hivemind

A responsive community watch is what’s needed, sadly i know personally how much people’s bystander effect kicks in if you’re not in their tribe.

Democrats are controlled opposition who didn’t want to win so they can pretend they’re not complicit. The system churns away broken, working as intended.

We live in a clown population. Mock for mock innit. Hope you’re doing work on the ground and this isn’t your activism 🫶

Dangerously hot, those are “fall and the sidewalk can burn you” temperatures.

Had to be a cishet white man for enough people to care.

When 3.5 percent of a population goes beyond protest to engage in peaceful civil disobedience and noncooperation, these actions disrupt the system and force governmental change. For example, general strikes that affect the economy, boycotts, sit-ins, walkouts, or shutdowns of parts of cities can put unavoidable pressure on political leaders to hear their constituents and resolve the matter.

Quoting this here for the people that want to jump straight from nonviolent protest to encouraging violence with a nudge and a wink.

DNC will need to do a lot of work before i believe they’re anything but controlled opposition.

North American Union.

Setup like the European Union with each state promoted to country status.

IIRC it’s the military AI “next generation of war” stuff.

I can’t even do the mental gymnastics what they were thinking beyond I’m “white” (I identify as Rainbow People™) so i must agree with their racism.

Trying to talk about trans issues beyond pronouns with any of them was met with uncomfortable silence, nervous laughter, or nonsequiters; so i don’t know how I expected better from them.

If Those Kids Could Read They’d Be Very Upset

One of the other comments here joked about a gofundme. Should there be or is there some crowdfunding service to help fund the general strike?

“Rules for thee, not for me” part of how they signal power and status is breaking the rules they set for the plebeians.

I’ve spent years screaming into the void, trying to wake people up, feeling like Cassandra. After the election I had way too many people try to console me with “at least they’re gonna go after the immigrants now”

I don’t know what to do now but all I see is no quick solution. I think the hard way won’t result in the change needed and is only part of the accelerationism that got us here. We should all be doing what we can to set up for the longer haul.

I thought it was a blurred goatse

Increasingly as I look around, there are no safe places. Everywhere has it’s own brand of problems, and many places are shutting doors rather than creating new paths.

Thank you for all of your efforts.

I was 10 when my dad made me help him rebuild his .22 then “gave” it to me for Christmas.

Trains. The people want trains.
