I look forward to being proved wrong, can’t wait to see how this changes the situation.
We have to keep protesting.
I felt the same, then someone mentioned Martin Luther King
you mean the guy who said in his last days that malcom X was right and that they would have gotten further by adopting his methods?
Precisely.
If you've given up and are ready to take those billionaire backshots then go ahead. I'm not.
and if all those same people that showed up to protest had showed up to the houses of conservative government leaders and drug them out into the streets, we'd be making real progress. i love it when the people show up. i just want them to do something with that energy.
Protest movements take time... especially given what we're up against. And people don't go from My First Protest attendee to guerilla freedom fighter overnight.
