We have to be smart. Throwing bricks is stupid.
We aren't though. Nobody thinks ahead. It's all protest reactions and meetings.
We need leaders.
Uh... Not sure that's the solution. Just not larping or following the herd would be great.
The solution is not to organize?
Leaders≠organization
Often counter to it. Terrible structure. Does not fix this problem.
Ok, how would you organize us then? Because we're not there yet
Without leaders? Without central points of failure? Without cults of personality?
That's like saying how would you make pizza without Elmer's glue, because clearly we don't have pizza here yet.
You're describing what it's not. I'm asking what it is. What is the plan?
If I had a plan, I would take great joy in not telling you, officer.
Yeah, this is why the left is getting steamrolled by fascists.
Absolutely officer, I'll do everything you suggest.
I suggested finding leaders. Now get to it.
Man this is lemmy whiplash. One thread judging Americans for not starting a rebellion and the next saying we shouldn't throw bricks at cops.
What do you people think rebellion is?
I feel like in America you should be able to do better than a brick. Cars and guns everywhere.
Throw a car full of guns.
Exactly
Rebellion involves guns. Until we're ready for that, inflatable chicken suits are the meta.
The current battlefield is in the minds of the non-radicalized. Bricks only hurt us in that battle. Watching inflatable chickens being shot with rubber bullets helps us win.
Not very familiar with the lead up to the American Revolution are we?
Lots of things being thrown
Ok, tough guys, you win.
Now you're a tough guy(tm) when you point out hypocrisy
Throwing bricks is how the gay rights movement got literally anything
Yeah you can't be peaceful if tye other side isn't and Will continue to oppress you
You've been propagandad. Throwing bricks is good
Ok, let me know how it goes.
Probably better then clutching pearls at stupid memes
It's funny you think I haven't already done so
How did it go?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stonewall_riots
It resulted in the liberation and elevation of an entire segment of society from the darkness of repression.
From what I can tell, you used bricks to get into your own gay bar, which the police had barricaded. Good work!
Empoweringly
They weren't there. These are feds and troll farms inciting idiotic behavior online.
Why don't you report some more of your delusions officer
Why don't you incite some more violence? Fed goon.
What violence has actually sprung from leftist internet memes? You give them way too much credit.
You know that claims of a rising tide of “far-left violence” are fake news, yeah? This bullshit narrative is pumped out by the far-right and by corporate media (otherwise known as the bourgeois press) and by NGOs who get their funding from the bourgeoisie.

You're not "left" you're a fed
Edit to add: It seems you’re seeing feds at every turn.
Why don't you cry more about memes. You fucking people and your pearl clutching about stupid jokes is incredible. Sign out before you give yourself hypertension, child.
Bullshit. Show me one admin who claims Lemmy has a “troll farm” problem. Only non-admins make such claims, usually ones suffering Russiagate derangement syndrome.
The closest thing to a troll farm I’ve seen so far is these several user accounts that only post news articles disparaging the US’s enemies.
"Anarchists aren't real"

Feels extremely good, highly reccomend
