This isn’t targeted towards you specifically but I gotta get this off my chest.
I keep seeing calls for violence, “Americans need to do X”, “why won’t Americans get real in the streets like the French etc”. They have a point but…
Lemmy is a public forum. The US famously has a large surveillance apparatus. What reasonable person would discuss illegal actions here?
Any real effective action like you’re probably imagining ain’t getting discussed here. Be serious and stop risking this platform with these whimsical calls for violence.
Voting for a few people will never let you truly speak for what you want. That’s particularly the case when the voting system has problems like clearly being in favor of wealthy people
Or when you want to change the economical system entirely, things like that
When official agencies lie to the people, there’s not much you can do
Only violence really works, sadly
It is one of many viable avenues of resistance. You can also sabotage, disrupt, defund, harass, and scam the assholes.
