I’m sure it seems like that from the outside. There’s so many of us inside that are fully sick of this, but we also all feel helpless for a number of reasons.
Nobody wants to be alone in making the first move of outward revolution.
None of us can afford to take a week off, much less the foreseeable future off to plan and execute any kind of meaningful action.
Once we lose our job from participating in said action, we don’t have healthcare anymore.
We’ve got to be so far past the point of no return that the status quo can’t continue before most people will be able to do anything.
Combine that with the press hiding most of this from the people, and people still wanting to hold out hope for…something…and you’re where we are at.
I’m crossing my fingers that the midterms (or lack thereof) will be the turning point.

but a friendly reminder to everyone in that same position: hope is not a strategy. At least try to come up with a plan for when it get worse. Do not be naive; as long as it can get worse, it likely will be.
No, you’re completely right. Hope is not enough. I’m also planning, but need to have hope that others outside my circle are too.
It will get worse. In fact, it has to - or else the majority of people will just brush their hands and say “hey we fixed it, nice job” …kinda like Biden 2020.
From the outside it looks like it’s similar to turning a big ship in a way. It’s just taking time for it to turn; meaning enough to get sick of it. It’s definitely wrong now to say nothings being done by people, you’ve only got to look at the videos people are taking of the migration police to see there’s resistance flowing through.
This situation here is a clear abandonment of media responsibility. Journalists themselves, or their profession, will take the reputational fall for this and it won’t matter if that’s fair to them or not. The right kind of reporting on this would go a long way to driving resistance against it.
Yeah I hope the midterms are somehow fair and held. It’s the best solution. I hope people turn out for them too if they are. The more that do, the harder it should be to rig or prevent voting at the polling booths.
We’ve had multiple people make the first move of outward revolution. They were ignored. So, you’re wrong, some people sacrifice in vain for a country that can’t even boycott a Walmart properly.
What you really can’t fucking afford is sacrificing your children’s future with the excuse that you “can’t afford to stop fascism”. You’re WEAK. Or you just don’t care about it. The country is fat as fuck. There’s all the proof you need that we have the money for this. Eat ramen if you have to. Yes, I’m telling you to sacrifice a bit for the greater good. Yes, I’m telling you that’s the only way to fucking fix this.
You know what’s even more weak? Typing this garbage onto an Internet forum through your phone while sitting on the couch eating a burger and believing that you’re the one making a difference by being an asshole. I hope you’re enjoying sitting around and jacking off to porn all day because you’re sure as fuck not “sacrificing a bit for the greater good” if you have time to type the absolute drivel that I’m responding to. I’m sure you’ll respond with some excuse as to why you’re exempt but if you have the time to respond then YOU’RE weak and YOU’RE not doing enough.

I totally get your point,

It fucking seems like that from the inside too. Fuck this shit hole country full of fucking fascist bigots.
