Edit: I do not, absolutely do not condone violent protests. I do not condone extreme actions. The point should be that the opinion gets heard through the voices and good graces of the people; not through scare tactics and extreme actions. the voice of a thousand matters more than the extreme actions of a group because you want people to accept a cause and to not associate a cause with violence and extremism because then that cause gets a bad name and to be honest scaring people and being all violent and shit is never the way to show that you want to get your message across, it only defeats the purpose.
Because when you actually do the actions it takes to make the actions match the magnitude of your words you're considered a terrorist and what they consider our actions to be terrorism - means more like lawful protests, speaking up in crowded areas with facts, being organized and actually organizing like the 50501 and the state organization sites.
while our government is allowed to be be ran by actual terrorists 😔- means that they go around with an armed militia and fuck up citizens, naturalized immigrants and undocumented immigrants with people who are larping for cash bonuses.
terrorist noun
I didn't necessarily mean violence. I meant.. stop staying in designated places. Block every highway, strike in every state, stop buying more and more crap, stop giving the ruling class their money. Grind society to a halt. When garbage is piled 2 stories high and their toilets haven't been cleaned for weeks, you'll suddenly have more power at any negotiating table. They can't arrest all of you. Don't stay in the designated places, don't plan for an end to any protest. If they know when and where you will be, and for how long, they'll just ignore it. Think about it. I would ignore it if I knew for sure it was going to end anyway. Strike and protest and don't let up.
And be careful when you say you are against "unlawful" things... because it's fascists who make the law. If you never want to break their laws, you might as well give up now. Like.. wtf is an unlawful strike? That's the fucking point. It's unlawful? So what? Do it anyway! If you only do what they allow you, where they allow you, when they allow you.. well, then why would they ever listen and/or change? You're already obedient like they want.
Fuck yeah!!!! I've been saying for over a decade we need a workers uprising and to halt the means of production.
