If they weren't, they would seek out equal minded people and try to do something more effective than just marching. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 hours ago* Your armchair judgements mean nothing.

It hurts me to say it, but (most) Americans are evil as fuck. It's just this deeply toxic culture, which gets reproduced in every aspect of their lives. They are obsessed with violence, their cars a basicly tanks, they have more guns then people, no maternity protections, mass surveillance, they worship their celebrities like drones their queen. They start war after war, build torture prisons around the world, destroy the environment, they bomb schools then turn around and say shit like: Thank you for you service. But don't blame the soldiers, they have no choice. They call it "Land Of The Free", "A shining city upon a hill", they say "Make America Great Again". Every half decent thing they monetise until it's hollowed out, they poison, cheat, scam, torture, kill, then lie about it. Most of all they lie to themselfs. They are vampires of the soul, ghouls of the heart, monsters in human form. And their fucking culture expands like a virus. And I speak with the pain of a disappointed lover, I loved their music, their artistic brilliance as shown in movies, musicals, theater, literature, journalism, hell even tec. But it's all a big scam, designed to amass power. Designed to enslave and exploit every last corner of this earth. permalink fedilink source parent [–] MJKee9@lemmy.world 12 points 15 hours ago (1 child) This doesn't help. It's victim blaming. The marching is the effort. People only have access to what they see and what they hear. If there are no marches, then what most people only see and hear is a curated narrative by the billionaires. The marches show others they aren't alone. If you truly want a progressive uprising, stop being a dick, and encourage those who are trying to win back our country from fascists. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] Buffalox@lemmy.world -14 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago) (3 children) The people are not the victim here, the people are the ones who are guilty this happened in the first place. USA may be a flawed democracy, but it is still a democracy. So no this is not victim blaming. The marches show others they aren’t alone. Again only excuses. You can march, but that is not enough. There needs to be clear demands, and there needs to be planned actions if demands aren't met. It's trivial to put up websites that can work independently from the media controlled by the 1%. That can organize local groups, and states and federal at the highest level. But nobody is doing anything. Apparently Americans won't sacrifice anything to rescue their democracy and country. 😔 Unfortunately you average Democrat is not your best friend on this issue, they are happily letting everything happen, and some even support it! They hope they will take the next turn, and win the next election by a landslide, and then the pendulum can go on like that forever.
