The Rules
Posts must be:

- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

Discussing details would get the comment deleted, and possibly my account banned. I think you know this, hence the abusive goading.
Asking people to risk their lives for each other is not the same as expecting the less privileged to die for you.
“Abusive goading”? We don’t need to talk about the actual act of offing CEOs(and I ain’t no snitch, mind). I specifically asked you about how you want normal people to make the transition to revolutionaries and if you don’t know then just say you’re pissed and, frankly, that’s ok because we should all be pissed right now. Hell, I’d be ok with you acknowledging that people are right to be afraid of the risk. And I’d still like to know what you’re doing and I imagine there is something non-violent, right? Like, how many protests do you go to and are you willing to skip work to go to them?
I’ll even say it for you that I’d love to see more Luigi events happening but I also understand that that’s a lot to ask of someone and if I’m not willing to do it myself then I have no moral ground to stand on to be making demands. We can both agree that it makes sense why you wouldn’t want to respond to that particular sentence but you need to understand it.
Ok. Buy a gun, join a local SRA chapter, join the local PSL chapter, learn to grow some food, form up a community with your neighbors, get a mask that’s effective against tear gas, read What Is To Be Done?/Guerrilla Warfare/This Nonviolence Stuff’ll Get You Killed, pack a go-bag, etc.
