That's on the billionaire controlled, right leaning media in the U.S.

They aren't going to even cover protests of considerable size until people start burning shit down.

And then they call us terrorists. Remember how Fox reacted to the burning of their tree? https://youtu.be/TYyFmnYprw0?si=ViGrcEW_xsYvGeFR

You're going to have to deal with being labeled terrorists.

The window for *effective* non-violent resistance is rapidly closing, if it's even open.

It's a countrywide, coordinated general strike *or* riots, bullets and guillotines for the techo-feudalist shitheels ruining your country.

Good luck

I mostly agree. The problem is that nonviolent resistance depends a lot on a media that shows it, and shows your oppressors as the brutal ones. That’s why it took a century after On The Duty Of Civil Disobedience was written for it to really be put into practice. Ghandi was helped by film footage

When you have media that doesn’t show that, it’s a lot less effective. Not ineffective, but less helpful than it used to be.

Fuck words, don't be scared of words! Let them call you whatever they want. They'll do whatever they need to do to win, you have to do the same to fight Trumps regime. It's a "fight fire with fire" situation and the sane Americans need to step up to protect the world from the crazy MAGAt bastards.

Exactly, they will call you socialist terrorists or whatever no matter what you do.

Might as well live up to the label if it's effective.

I’m not expecting infotainment channels to pick this up, but international media outlets would cover it if it was happening.

Okay, but our european media don't report major protest either. So start burning shit, baby !
