Federal immigration agents swarm Minneapolis high school, handcuff staff and fire chemical irritants at students. Safety concerns prompt school closure.
Did you even read your comment before you posted it? “Let’s have another self inflicted great depression because a pedophile wants to hide his crimes, and after the government murders enough of us in the street to make us mad, then let’s do something about it.” That type of attitude is why we are in this situation. It’s honestly pathetic, but you do you.
The fact that some of you are so upset by reality is not my problem. Protest is one facet of resistance. It can’t be the only one to be effective. You can pretend we live in some lala land where fascists are going to wake up one day and realize how wrong they are because of a great post on lemmly, but I live in the real world, and that’s not how it works here.
Perhaps exercising a literal CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT (2nd Amendment - you should look it up) offends you, but did you ever consider that was it was there for a reason? There are plenty of ways to respond forcefully and non-lethally short of your ridiculous example. Sometimes the threat of force is sufficient. Sometimes it isn’t. Maybe we should explore those options as a country instead of burying our heads in the sand and pretending that it’s all going to be fine. Shutting down the conversation because it makes you uncomfortable isn’t helping anyone.

If we can’t organize a general strike, we can’t organize an armed resistance.
we are long pass a strike, simply because everyone is too in disarray to even organize that.
