Not that any of this will directly accomplish anything, but goddamn the level of organization I witnessed today, shit, I don't think they're going to be forming a vanguard party and leading the revolution or anything, but maybe there will at least be an effective internal resistance against the burgerreich once we go full 1940 nazi Germany

I figured there was no way they'd be able to manage it, but this gives me hope that they can learn and develop in time to survive

There was far more and better organizing than I thought apparently, because they changed the plan and spread the word in just 8 hours and everyone knew what was going on in time to follow through together, it was amazing!

I thought it fell apart because I didn't hear their new plan before they executed it

Oh my god IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED LIKE ALL OF THEM LEFT! turns out they adjusted their plan between yesterday and today to synchronize with the local high-school, I am SHOCKED

Ive never ever EVER seen coordination like this before from them. It was almost complete unity basically everyone walked out and they did it all at the same time all coordinated only by themselves I am feeling ecstatic right now holy fuck

I am do proud of them right now holy fuck I'm CRYING

Even the ones who I thought would just be doing this to get out of school had signs and stuff and marched off with everyone else instead of just bailing! I'm so proud of them...

~~I thought I had already given up but hearing the kids talk about this gave me the slightest bit of hope I guess, cause at the appointed time has come and gone and nothing happened I just feel absolutely fucking gutted~~

~~There is no hope, not even the bullshit liberal nonviolent protest kind, this country is a desolation~~

What should I do, and how do I do it without getting fired

I'm gonna order copies of A People's History of the United States, but what else?
