Human beings in positions of power need to die for the acts that will be committed under this fascist regime. Every person contributing to this happening has a name and an address.

It’s what uneducated men do when they end up making society so hostile to women that women don’t want to date anymore.
A more extreme version of this happened durning the Arab Spring.
Does it pay enough to ever be free one day?
Lmao which numbr bigger pedant
I don’t care a third of the country stayed home. They do that every election and always will.

Because they know the Neoliberals who are putting on these events won’t ever organize or use their numbers in a threatening way.

They also understood the history of protests and weren’t fooled into thinking standing around with signs was going to make their opressors be nice.

Not a single right that we have was given to us
Every single right we have was won from bloody conflict against oppressors.
The status quo depends on us never truely forcing change to happen.
Peaceful protests working is American revisionist history.
The majority voted for Donald Trump.
He won the popular vote.
He did not win because of some electoral college bullshit.
He won because more people voted for him than his opponents.
Come to terms with the fact that 1 third of our country would sit on the couch and watch another third exterminate the last third.

Why am i blaming a party that is totally incapable of representing their voters?
Because this is supposed to be a democracy?
We’ll get shot anyway if we don’t start shooting back

*Because Boomers are the only generation left that can afford to take a day off.
So are or are we not allowed to talk about the illegal but practical solutions to fascism here?

Ironically this instance bans people who suggest we do more than wave signs.
Anti genocide Gaza protesters also got thrown out of Bernie’s rally and the Hands Off protests.

No, aknowledging reality isn’t stupid

It’s worth aknowledging that gathering will never do anything.
We have to do SOMETHING with the numbers.
If they don’t voluntarily step down we need to use our numbers to physically stop them.
This is engaging with reality.
Voting for another Neoliberal will not fix any problems. We already learned this lesson in 2016 and 2024
It’s time for leftist leadership
