    Well you could also be impolite about it and become a nuisance for the enablers and supporters.

    Or organise so that you aren’t as helpless the next time the same or another tries to abuse power.

    I always kind of understood that the majority of people would stay out of revolution to cope with just surviving. I just didn’t expect them to be so vocal about the apathy.

        You’re asking the wrong question.

        If you did want to do anything, you’d ask how to make a difference/what can’t they ignore, and start gathering resources.

        It’s hard, it’s unappetizing, it’s probably not for you.

        For the civilians that can’t accept the current affairs, theres plenty of ways to support protest, peaceful or not.

          What they can’t ignore is voting them out, hopefully No Kings will organize that as we get closer to the elections in November.

          Until then? All the noise? All the protests? They don’t care. They really do not.

          The writing is on the wall for the House, the Republicans will be out.

          The Senate is where No Kings needs to move the needle.

            Uh… The White House is absolutely preparing to ignore unfavorable election results. But, sure, vote out the fascist regime. I’m sure that’ll work just fine.
