    If my life depends on it then I’m going to do other things in addition to protesting. Including but not limited to buying a gun.

    There is no unity for a riot to actually work. No protections for protesting or guarantees to healthcare.

    Why do I feel like these posts come from non Americans who assume we have the same workers protections as them?

    This will not be possible until his policies come to fruition and Republicans feel the pain of tariffs. And when it happens so many people will die.

    I doubt anyone comes to help us.

    Edit: Best we can hope for is the blue states to rise up and declare unified intent to secede and join the EU.

      You’re right maybe they will see the error of their ways and decide to roll it all back. We don’t have unity because there is always some self-defeating asshole saying it won’t work. I’d rather try something that might not work than continuing to do the same thing that definitely doesn’t work.

      Not sure why you feel like it comes from non-Americans. I’m not suggesting a riot or a strike. But for now protesting is relatively safe. The most dangerous thing I’ve seen are the people who will heckle protesters. Protesting will also help you make connections with other people which is incredibly important right now.

      Fight for whatever you believe wherever you are and you are doing more than enough.

      Have you tried giving money to Nancy Pelosi? That’s supposed to solve every problem in the world, and apparently it’s always urgently needed no matter how much money she and her cohorts receive!

    Lot of people telling each other to riot but I don’t see anyone actually doing it. If everyone who told people to riot actually riotted themselves we might have something.

    It will. No matter who you are there’s something you have or something you do that they don’t like, and they’ll come after you when they’re done with everyone else. Protest and fight now, while you still can.
