Twatter bullshit incoming.@ShadowRun is having a full on meltdown in this thread. The big bad protest won’t hurt you, don’t worry little guy.
I was going to say tell me where they touched you seem on point for this crowd.@ShadowRun is having a full on meltdown in this thread. The big bad protest won’t hurt you, don’t worry little guy.
Honestly only protest that i personally know of that was succesful in my lifetime was maidan ukraine 2014this protest is so pathetic.
here we have the richest people on the planet, that dominate internet debate by bitching about everything everywhere, but are incapable of organizing anything remotely serious and end up organizing the equivalent of a Sunday day at the fair.
take the people out protesting and average their wealth and they'd be the richest group alive now on the planet, compared to any other country.
Fat, well fed people in a system that protects them from 99,99% of the dangers people from other countries face every day, decided to have a Sunday picnic and dress up in funny costumes because irony is the only thing they know. banged a few drums and sang some songs with their all-white 60+ reading group that reads burundian lesbian pottery poetry and talk about "the struggle". And on their way home stopped at starbucks, paid 20 dollars for a cookie, posted how they "resisted" for their social bubble. hundreds of thousands of main character syndrome people. what a fucking joke.
in the end it's an identity thing - "i wanna project an image of someone against billionaires, against the system (but no that much, cause the system is mostly nice, so its anti-system with the caveat that it's actually against a handful of people in the system), anti-racist (cause it's the good thing to be), while deep down fully understanding i live better than most people on the planet and i don't REALLY want to rock the boat too much. "
There is NO protest that works in the western world. it's easier to bring down governments in a tyranny than in a western democracy. it's easier to INFLUENCE governments in tyrannies than it is in western democracies. in reality, in western democracy the power is so diffuse that you end up "governing", win the election, and spend your time there realizing basically everybody in the vast, colossal bureaucracy can stop you, delay you, make you fight for every little thing, until your time is over and you didn't do much cause it's almost impossible to meaningfully change things. BY DESIGN.
this is also funny cause this is how i know the real leftists and the communists are nowhere near any form of power in America - communists are actually good at organizing. shit at governing but that's another matter. the current left in america is billionaire-hijacked just as much as the right, and the only "protests" that are allowed (and thoroughly funded) are decided by the wealth class.
a dark and awful satire.
It doesn't matter that billionaires were behind these "no kings" protests, they are going to fund our kings next electionthis protest is so pathetic.

Well i did say western world. ukraine back then was eastern euro third world. still is, but used to be as well. and that was as far from a natural, homegrown movement as it gets. cia and the brits and everybody's mother was there.Honestly only protest that i personally know of that was succesful in my lifetime was maidan ukraine 2014
And thats pushing definition of protest since it was mass melee combat against police to overthrow goverment
