Civility died on Nov 5 2024 and if America wants democracy it is going to have to go !!TAKE!! it back from these “Christian” white Nationalist Nazi fks!!!! With all their vile moves more protests will be incoming. They will find a way to “round us up” no matter what!!
No, I think history proves that evil triumphs when ‘good’ people do nothing. Moral cowardice never leads to positive outcomes. But you go back to your self-obsessed individual selflessness and the rest of us will fight the nazis again… just like history has proved to be the moral thing to do.
Being rude to someone who has a diverse opinion isn’t the flex you think it is. If you want to be an effective advocate try a different approach. Adios
That’s what they want! Then he can use violence as an excuse to institute more autocratic repressive measures leading to Marshall law. He’s a sadist he gets off on being able to kill people. Safer to have no buy no work strikes to crash the economy. Think Smart not reactionary!
You’re right. Use every recourse at our disposal until we run out of options.
In the meantime, prepare other… options for when we have no other option.
“Work for peace, but prepare for war.”
We need to develop new strategies.They have all the weapons, the military, the media, the prisons. The movements of the future must be leaderless, nonviolent, and worldwide. It's not about Trump it's about billionaires and the survival of humanity. Demand Survival shut down capitalism.
So, I’ve been researching the mindset of these technocrats like musky and Theil. Their entire philosophy of a technocratic / apartheid Utopia hinges on the ability of the police / security to control the masses.
We become righteously ungovernable…
Dr MLK was not a true pacifist. He understood that nonviolence was a tactic. You immediately fight back, and you become what they said you were to everyone else.
If you walk peacefully with women and old folks into stun grenades, teargas, and batons, and don’t fight back, public opinion shifts…
I suggest reading “Agents of Repression” CoIntelPro was used to destroy Black Panthers, the American Indian Movement etc The future of humanity rests on the decisions we are currently making. Leaders consider what the cause and effect of their actions will have on others. Be smart not reactionary
It is reasonable that one can come to that conclusion because things seem so stacked out of favor with a mutual accord for peace. But everyone has empathy, just not directed at all people. Some have only selfcentered empathy in which they only care about others if it serves their intrests.
Greatest weapon is human ingenuity Surely no 1 person or clique of people have it all
Certainly if humans see something most likely leads to their happiness,they spontaneously cooperate
Trick is finding common throughline&discover conjunction between intent&purpose wherein peace rests in potential
The question is: What is in the realm of possibility?
Certainly people can opt out of mainstream incoherence and involve only with local islands of coherence. Self sufficient, self sustained, free and independent people is a combinatory capacity to build up resiliency against any concentrated power
I’m not sure.What I do know is hate & violence is what got us here,where we are now.And it does make me sad.I do believe in taking a stand for what is good,what is right.It always comes back to love.Violence always begets violence.It’s a bad cycle and we haven’t learned how to do better without it.
They will bring violence no matter what we do.
It’s their nature and the core of their ideology.
Peaceful marches will be met by violent cops.
Any show of direct force by any national law enforcement, on either side of the musk flag, will be met by an equal reaction from the other side…
What’s delusional and idealistic in my thoughts? I talked about how their hate and violence got us here, and the violence in the world goes round and round. Has for thousands of years. So that’s delusional and idealistic to you? And how does that make it an impractical worldview?
?? Do you think that the fascists are going to listen to peaceful protests? Have you heard them?
They don’t give a shit! As much as I admire the people engaging in peaceful protest right now, I don’t think the lack of violence is why they’re good. It’s because it gets people together.
I know they’re hateful and violent. I think they’re awful. And yes, they don’t give a shit.
I never even mentioned a peaceful protest. Or any protest in my post.
Before I stated my thoughts, I said, I don’t know. I’m on a fence how I think this shit should be handled.
there are several methods of resistance. They have all the big guns and there are no allies bigger than US military now. So we need to reframe refocus. And only pro violence when it comes to extremists Nazis etc.
We have to accept this. Years of asking nicely, taking the high road( thanks Michelle) and peaceful protesting has led us here.
Luigi achieved more with 1 bullet than decades of being polite did.
Violence may be coming but we shouldn't start it. So far the worst of trump/musk actions have been stopped or delayed by the Courts. It's still possible to neuter these Nazi's. Let's keep trying.

Don't you know that you can count me out"-(Revolution lyrics)
I feel like the power keg is about to explode 🤯
I’m kinda sensitive to energy around me and that’s the type of energy that I’m feeling.
And honestly I’m hopeful that it’ll favor us
India, South Africa, America and Voting Rights.
History teaches us.

Ghandi got E gland to withdraw occupation.
King got Civil Rights.
They WANT us to charge with guns.
MLK had Malcolm X.
And they were all murdered.
Malclm X did not get rights for Black Americans.
Commitment to a righteous justice causes death.
In the meantime, prepare other… options for when we have no other option.

The rules clearly don’t apply to them and they have shown us they’re not willing to follow the laws.
Kent State?
Or
The Kennedy/King assassinations?
Us hippies were a peaceful lot.
I will never stop believing that peaceful revolution IS possible
All that is between two conflicting sides is a misunderstanding
Where there is hatred,let us sow love
Where there is anger,let us dig deeper to care
meet this moment with honor

So, it’s inevitable.
There will be blood.

true power is not gotten by violence
violence only creates temporary power
true power is gotten by reason
thats power enough
we can do that through reason & strength
violence might be necessary, but it should never be the goal, until its necessary.
Violence has always been an answer, we just hope for it to be the last one.
They have now made it the ONLY option.
