Stop bothering with protests, the fascists dont give a shit about them. We can pressure them by forcing big moneys hand.

We need to organize a longer general strike and if we can build community by getting out supporting each other and protesting at the same time thats great. But lets not kid ourselves that itll be the protesting thats doing anything.

Money talks and the people have the power!

People acting like protests arent a way to build community support for things like general strikes confuse me. Like yeah more general strikes! But also like keep it up with the protests they clearly are a great way to build momentum.

    This only works while we still control the means of production. Once most jobs can be/are automated with robotics and LLM that power is lost. Running out of time.

    We need clear and coherent goals with the ultimate aim to restructure the entire system.
