And, I am thankful that you are taking action.

I get it you have to organize, and I see you are doing something, May is a long way off.

During the "Muslim ban" people came out onto the streets and airports almost immediately. I think this made more impact.

I'm sorry I cannot give a better answer than, mass protest is need right now.

Approximately 4 million people were in the streets last weekend. There's another protest planned for this coming weekend. Our occupation is in less than 2 weeks. We are acting

Often easier said than done, but don't be afraid, keep on going, keep on trying, keep on speaking up, as silence is the killer, talk to and mobilise your friends, family, colleagues and neighbours, and don't give up!

Protests do not work against authoritarian, fascist regimes who belive they have a "holy war" of their own making and ideology to conduct.

felineroots21.bsky.social•74 days ago

Perhaps they won't, in which case what do you suggest?

There are 4 boxes to use in defense of Liberty, in this order:

• Soap
• Ballot
• Jury <--(we are here)
• Cartridge

It's nearly insanity to me that we are here, but the entire MAGA Reich and sycophantic GOP are nearly insanity to me already as it is.

Great idea. That's why we'll be in the streets demanding the indictment and conviction of trump by Congress and removal of the president. That's jury. Promising support to those who do their jobs. That's jury. Protest and occupation is not just public bitching. Our actions have meaning. Do yours?

Protests do nothing to fascist, authoritarian regimes. If anything it emboldens them. Even Maidan in Ukraine didn't work until Yanukovich started shooting, making Ukrainians shoot back.

Shutting down the Capitol & financial centers, blockading of key traitorous GOP members daily, would be a start.

Sure sounds great. This country is struggling to get turnout to a one day weekend protest. When you get enough turnout to make a difference like a national strike or a different style of occupation, you let us know, we will be in DC already and waiting.

superluminal.bsky.social•73 days ago

This is entirely the problem.

And part of their plan.

I'm not skilled enough in mass organizing to overcome it. I will withhold sharing my thoughts on other possibilities.

felineroots21.bsky.social•73 days ago

So instead you sit on social media and undermine those who are acting by complaining it's not enough? How is that productive? None of us are skilled in this, that's no excuse. Join up and do something anyway, not enough is significantly better than absolutely nothing. Complaining is not action
