Did rioting work for George Floyd? Every single police reform bill was killed when Fox News exploited the riots to portray the whole police reform movement as crazy.
Rioting just injures a couple of working class cops, gets yourself arrested, and plays into their hands. If you want the ruling oligarchs to fear you, don’t riot. Harm the economy. Boycott. General strike. Make the line go down.
Americans are apathetic, misinformed, dissuaded or exhausted by everything going on the last 8 years or so.
Would be totally surprised if major public protests happened. People mainly just look out for themselves. That’s the American way. Community has been removed and replaced with TV.
I mean, the literal design of an American suburb is to make sure everyone stays as individualistic as possible and does not connect or form community. It is by design
American exceptionalism is finding an excuse for why nothing can ever work in your country yet does anywhere else.
Meanwhile the altright descended on and almost toppled your entire system of government a few years back.
I remember 20 years cities all across America protesting against the WoT and 1%ers.
But nope, just can’t happen in America, they’re special.
I mean America has been sabotaged and designed by bad actors basically since its inception. That’s just a fact. This is to say we were bred and taught to be spineless, helpless saps to be abused by the corps.
It’s really an incredibly successful campaign. Quite impressive if it didn’t make me want to turn those responsible into mulch.
