I’ll add to what Valmond said.

Not once did you advocate for a violent solution. You’re right, it’s either nothing or an extreme with these people, and excuses at every point.

They have enough to do a national peaceful shutdown. 60% in the urban areas for two weeks, which is hardly enough time to starve or be evicted, and at those numbers after it’s done, it’ll be impossible to replace that many jobs or go through with the evictions.

You’re right. Churchill was right, let them pile on…if they showed this much unity piling on the way they do to the mirror across social networks toward a national shutdown, solving their problems and voting for fucks sake, they’d solve this.

If they turned out to vote at 80-90% all the time, there’d be daylight between them and the current best performing democracies in the world.

They are, and more of us need to get behind these commenters when the Americans pile on them.

I asked a European friend to take a look. Nope, you're still the idiot. Get a map and try your "couple of hours" from anywhere outside of DC and report back

Well said, thank you. I put these opinions forward knowing theyll be unpopular but if even the smallest seed can be planted from it its a success in my book.

I dont mind being piled on. People need to hear hard things even if it makes them angry and lash out.

that were fighting,

Sorry, what trench in Ukraine are you posting from?

but we should be fighting autocracy wherever it happens to be, and it happens to be in Russia

Are you American? Because your country is currently engaged in war crimes, and you can fight it plenty well from there.

Majority of Americans want things like universal healthcare and gun control. But the money behind the politicians and the shitty design of our voting and representation systems fucks it all up.

i don't disagree with that. i'm actually coming at why is it not being done by many numbers in the us as opposed to the rest of the world.

Idk I'm not american

yeah me neither.

....and it acheived fucking nothing haha

Once again proving that non-violent resistance aint shit. The Algerians, Cubans , Koreans , Burkinabe, and Vietnamese send their regards

....ook....and now what are you americans doing for your allies? ...

and on a side note I find it odd that the Russians havent rebelled violently against Poo-tin. Its Loooong overdue. Dude's a nearly useless goof.

pretty highly localized if i might add, its not like the whole US goes to protest at the same time. also media is strictly controlled by conservatives so you will never see it even if it got larger, which would been avoided if people voted for A d IN THE FIRST place. theres plenty of people in my blue area that are quite dismissive and complacent about the "protest" in the US, because it doesnt affect them.

No escalation in the protests at all.

the point is there is no escalation from us protestors when that happened, Occupy wallstreet pretty much showed oligarchs have nothing to be worried about, they can shovel culture war into social media its enough to distract people.

its likely its too small to even get bigger in the news, also because conservatives controls most of the MSM as well, it will hit the news, its all "look what trump did that make him look stupid" gaffe everyday.

i noticed after the protests, people just went home like no news after that, they treat it like they were working a shift a store, 8hrs here, 8 hrs there and then done. also these are Planned protests, so you get what you "paid for" and likely kept on a tight leash by the DNC and MSMs to not escalate further. it allows them to have release valve when something schumer-hakeems and congrees does something terrible voting with the GOP.

also black people in general are heavily stereotyped, so people would be indoctrinated not to trust AA figures in history. they think the fantasized version of ghandi was the method of resistance, his own family was anything but peaceful to get thier way at least until the late 70s in India.

the biggest lie ever told.

People always say 'belgh blehg blerg bleg governement ≠ belgh blehg blerg vleg people . People have gotta stop spoiuting this bullshit line cause Im too tored of it. Carlin said it once:

"Now, there's one thing you might have noticed I don't complain about: politicians. Everybody complains about politicians. Everybody says they suck. Well, where do people think these politicians come from? They don't fall out of the sky. They don't pass through a membrane from another reality. They come from American parents and American families, American homes, American schools, American churches, American businesses and American universities, and they are elected by American citizens. This is the best we can do folks. This is what we have to offer. It's what our system produces: Garbage in, garbage out. If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, you're going to get selfish, ignorant leaders. Term limits ain't going to do any good; you're just going to end up with a brand new bunch of selfish, ignorant Americans. So, maybe, maybe, maybe, it's not the politicians who suck. Maybe something else sucks around here... like, the public. Yeah, the public sucks. There's a nice campaign slogan for somebody: 'The Public Sucks. Fck Hope. Because if it is really just the fault of the politicians then where are all the other bright people of conscience? Where are all the bright, honest, intelligent Americans ready to step in and save the nation and lead the way? We don’t have people like that in this country. Everybody’s at the mall, scratchin’ his ass, pickin’ his nose, takin’ his credit card out of his fanny pack and buyin’ a pair of sneakers with lights in them. So, I have solved this little political dilemma for myself in a very simple way. On Election Day, I stay home. I don’t vote. Fck ’em! Fck ’em! I don’t vote. Two reasons. Two reasons I don’t vote. First of all, it’s meaningless. This country was bought and sold and paid for a long time ago. This shit they shuffle around every four years? Pfft! Pfft! It doesn’t mean a fcking thing. And secondly, I don’t vote because I believe if you vote you have no right to complain. People like to twist that around, I know. They say, ‘Well, if you don’t vote you have no right to complain.’ But where’s the logic in that? If you vote and you elect dishonest, incompetent people and they get into office and screw everything up, well, you are responsible for what they have done. You caused the problem. You voted them in. You have no right to complain. I, on the other hand…who did not vote…who did not vote…who, in fact, did not even leave the house on Election Day, am in no way responsible for what these people have done and have every right to complain as loud as I want about the mess you created that I had nothing to do with. So, I know that a little later on this year you’re gunna have another one of those really swell presidential elections that you like so much [Bill Clinton v. Bob Dole]. You enjoy yourselves; it’ll be a lot of fun. I’m sure as soon as the election is over your country will improve immediately. As for me, I’ll be home on that day, doing essentially the same thing as you. The only difference is, when I get finished jerking it, I’m gunna have a little something to show for it, folks.” -- George Carlin

These are Russians and Ukranians from Russian and Ukranianian homes, businesses, schools, soldiers who instead of just saying "Fuck it" and conscientiously objecting in jail in the millions and millions together in brother and sister hood choose to do their fucking parastic bitches biddings . How long do you think this war would go on for if only the politicians threw their bloody parasrtic asses at each other? .... I heard the same said anout the needless Iran-Lebanon-Yemen war....

Heck even the last surviving WWI veteran talked about this: He said something along fhe lines of: "I still feel about the war now as I did then, that I wished that these fucking politicoans were the omes who picked up the guns and artilerry and blew up each other."

The Common People outnumber the politicians, the billionaires , the bribed mercenary class traiitor pigs in the hundreds and even thousands. The Common People can clearly ALWAYS come together and absolutely de-fucking-molish the fuxk out of all these war mongerers and create numerous societies that are created by the Common People and work for The Common People, Societies That Works For The Workers !....

....The people choose not to do this.... Every second ...of everyday... Why they choose not to do this? Meh! Ive asked a couple and its always bullshit reasons here and there. Heck, Ive met some people who acrually enjoy being exploited like this.

The people indeed ARE their government . The people at any moment could substantiate substantial effort to permenanently change their society for the better , to substantially change society to favor them and our hard work . We have the dream , we have the hands , we have the numbers.... but we dont have the courage (or even the thinking capacity it seems) . Instead we would rather just be complacent and let these parasites throw us at each other in needless air raids and invasions or shoot at each other over a couple thousand dollars in random gang wars here and there....

Fuck outta here with this garbage line.

well at least it would substantiate substantial changes ...so.... 🤷🏿‍♂️

If the americans are A-OK with the status quo allow tjem to keep doing what theyre currently doimg and let us see how much positive changes they bring about.

Ewww civil disobedience?!

"Nobody should self-immolate for Gaza. Symbolic acts only have an effect when your enemies are humans and ours are not . Instead if youre already sure you want out, you should... ?????? idf veterans in your local area."

You think symbolic acts of civil disobedience will make a difference? Actually , you know what? I want the americans to keep on and keep on doing it. Ha! Theyre already doing this and they did it during the Civil Rights riots (my favorite part of the Civil Rights Riots were how nowadays non-White americams are still NOT treated like humans and STILL not reparated). Let us see what changes for for the americans in the next 50 years.... 🍿🤭

hitch hike?

"If your oppressors approved of the 'protest' ? Congratulations. I hope you enjoyed your parade" 😂🥳

...ok.... and did this 'protest' substantiate substantial changes? ....WAYMENT! 😂

exactly. These peaceful protests rarely ever substantiate substantial changes. The literal largest per capita protest in american history didnt do shit.

What does this tell the americans?

haant changed shit....so...who cares?

The Cubans are escaping to Florida instead of revolting, Korea has had multiple visibly corrupt presidents and I still haven't heard of violent protests... Not sure those are the best examples.

Serbia just overthrew their dictator with protests and civil disobedience

It’s not like ice was literally killing protesters execution style in Minneapolis or anything. This post is dumb

This post is a shtipost.

I want you to say this same line to a Haitian person in 1804. Or to a Cuban person in 1959. Or to a Russian person in 1918

The amercans indeed are not the healthiest or best paid of all wage slaves om planet Earth today....but their access to spec ops knowledge and to weapons would put most of the world to shame. Heck the average american could put a Hatian person in 1804 or a Cuban pwrson in 1959 to shame with the access to shit they have....and yet....these americans never want to anything about their slavery. 😂🤣

I guess this must be what the americans want seeing as how they never want to substantiate any substantial changes to improve their lives and the lives of others who their mercenaries are currently blowing up as I type this 🤷🏿‍♂️

Indeed you are correct.

AMD in 1954 Che Guevara actually came up with a speech that explained everything you need to know about the current americans' 'rebellious spirit' https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-H5m_BeJoQA&pp=ygUkd2h5IGFtZXJpY2FucyBkbyBub3RoaW5nIGJhZGVtcGFuYWRh0gcJCTAMAYcqIYzv.

(Im going to add that Im baffled that Many people think that wearing a fucking costume is rebellious enough to substantiate any aubstantial positive changes.... WTF?!)

exactly bro.

The fascists N.E.V.E.R. throw in the towel.

We all must be as willing to be unrelenting like them.

Oh, look what you've done. You've created a political morality in which the government's entitlement to your obedience increases in direct proportion to how willing it is to fucking kill you.

There's no country where people should be fighting back harder than the one where the government is most willing to murder them for daring to resist its authority. You're part of the problem.

Can you ELI5 all of that cause Im lost , sorry .

Americans are the biggest bunch of fucking cowards.

Pretty much hust this↑

Thank you.

Stop trying to make substantiate happen!

Don’t forget number three!!! Maybe you’re not as “plugged in” as you thought

“I saw an American acting like an ass, and as an American decided to act like an ass too”

4 word input to 7 paragraph output are you an LLM 😭

if you think that spain has a left wing government then you need help.

spain's government is capitalistic. There will NEVER be left wing capitalism cause its actually impossible.

Left wingedness places humans at the centre and gives each individual human greater abilitiy to say and do what they each individually want with their lives. Left wingedness makes more leaders , and it even turns the workers into leaders. This is why left winged exrremism is called ANARCHY, cause then there are no leaders. Right wingednesses centres the rich and their materials. It makes less leaders. And last time I checked Spain has only one president . This is why right winged extremism is called AUTOCRACY, one leader.

Heck , even wikipedia itself calls you out. on your idiocracy . DOnt even believe anything I just typed - go to wikipedia right now and type in left wing politics and right wing politics and then show me how anything I just typed is wrong.... I can wait 🍿🤭

ok. you can tread on me.

yeah they didn't set fire to anything and cause a right wing backlash that help pro putin and islamist oligarchs internationally

standard lemming sigh

....Ah Yup yup yup every excuse in the book.

Instead of talking about Cubans from 1959 ....you talk about Cubans today. Bro IDGAF abou Cubans today. Bro Cuba is no longer a socialist state. Have you seen the rrforms? Have you seen the oil embargos effects on Cuba since 2 years ago up until today? Clearly you havent so why am I even asking?

Instead of talking about Koreans from 1910-53 .....you talk about SOUTH KOREA TODAY ....when Im talking ALL of the Korean Penninsula from decades ago.

BUT Yup yup yup! Keep up the excuses . Never use historicals examples to give you directions as to what the americams should do today YUP YUP YUP.

...ok... and now let us watch as the Serbian bourgeoisie install ANOTHER dictator. Or install a placeholder who gives the Serbian people a few treats here and there and then their successor .... takes all those treats away 🤭🍿😏

I substantiate a "No"

I know this is a shit post, but I wanna say just trying to reach DC through the maze of motorways, roads, and such puts a damper on directly protesting there easily without organized bus services. The logistics of trying to rebel without just sending armoured vehicles in crashing through everything is pretty gnarly.

I think we'd be better off taking to the streets to governor residences and state reps. Going to the capitol in an organized fashion for intentions portrayed here is just a logistical nightmare.

Trying to organize in the capitol is a nightmare. I think we're better off pressuring governors and state officials more than trying to focus on the national level.

Im just gonna post this here : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rpicpifk15U&pp=ygUWdGhlIG1hdHlyIHdpbGwgbm90IGRpZQ%3D%3D

To anyone who iis too young or naïve to understand? Hopefully youll understand one day.....

Thanks to the NRA and Ronald Reagan for essentially leading the charge. Save for some gun laws, most are racist intentions to keep marginalized communities weak and unarmed for easier subjugation.
