    Some dorks in this thread are the perfect example of who potential protesters need to ignore.

    I brought up “truckers blocking highways and important intersections” to my very good (but desperately clueless) friend. Violence free, requires few bodies, historically effective.

    He said “but what about the people they inconvenience?”

    I’m like dude. Inconvenience to power is. the. point.

    I love him but he’s a fool, guy thinks protests are people smiling and holding clever signs.

    Sad thing is he’s representative of a lot of people.

    They’ll be happy when things are better but idgaf about asking their advice. They don’t read history, the closest theyll get to a protest is the news coverage, and they’ll never be satisfied with less than some impossible dream of a “immaculate conception protestation”

    So like, fuck em

    Can we please put a pause on the focus on social inclusion, and focus on defeating the fascists trying to own the world?

    One does not preclude the other. There is energy for both inclusion and revolution.

    In fact, revolution is inclusion, is mutual-aid, etc. It’s a requirement. For every person “fighting” there are 10 more people supporting the people and the community that fascism and its shrinking safety nets leave behind
