But rolling over is not an option. The military isn't going to kill all the workers. The workers are more important than any other group. If the workers strike, the rich suffer.
When the resistance in territories occupied by nazi germany and imperial japan killed a high ranking official of the occupying force, the occupiers would round up innocent people and shoot to kill them on the streets. "Reprisals" is what it's called. But do you think the resistance should've given up? Surrender to nazi germany and imperial japan just to avoid the "reprisals"? No, because if they had done that, the whole world would be speaking german and japanese.
Yeah guys! It's very important that we learn nothing from history and that we ignore the signs of fascism rearing its head once more. /s
Obviously. What do you think happens to the workers once they're enslaved? The workers need to unite NOW, if they're ever gonna have a chance to pull the rich and powerfull down into the mud.
But what is your solution to the current issue then?
So just don't do anything, and hope your slaveowner will be nice? Got it. He won't, and a lot of people will die because you don't give enough of a shit.
Voter turnout is always highest for presidential elections, and the last two have had the highest in decades. Yet that is still in the low 60's. Any ideas for how to increase turnout?
vote harder!
There was no box with a non-genocide collaborator.
We had all that under Biden too, and Kamala promised to do what Trump had been doing, but more competently.
Do you not remember the Migrant overflow facilities they concentrated immigrants in under Biden, in greater numbers? Oh right, you went back to brunch once a D was doing the same shit we all agreed was bad when Trump was doing it.
No one said anything about winning. I think their point was that it was all losing.
I think ypu are falling for the trap of blaming the other victims. No matter how people voted, the person doing the evil is still who needs to be blamed. Well him, and the system that let him get there in the first place. Your anger is justified, but directing it at people you have never met, and most of whichs vote made no difference (lot of blue state voters didn't vote, but the state still went blue) is only going to cause more people to be disillusioned and not vote.
If you did have a time machine, how would you get everyone to vote?
You know how you could change it? By convincing the DNC they will 100% lose on the platform and actions that made them lose. Nothing else, going back and trying to tell millions of people that ICE will send people to concentration camps and deprive them of due process and give Israel unlimited logistical and diplomatic support as they commit a genocide, and they will say "...like theyre doing now?"
trade stock tips? with the time machine you could even go to an earlier time to exploit knowledge of economic trends, and then make multiple trips to the day before the election.. every time you run out of time, just go back 24h again.
LOL "wait it out"
What a bunch of pathetic weaklings.
Where's your american heroes patriot biggest fighter for freedom stand up for what we believe in greatest country democracy in the universe talk now?
