America doesn't need a revolution, a simple general strike will remind the capitalist bastards that they rely on us, not the other way around.
then what are you waiting for?
I'm Australian. We have mandatory voting, which makes it almost impossible for a nutjob like Trump to take control here.
same, I meant what are they waiting for
But we do have little to no independent media, which does help Dutton and his cohorts (Trumpets of Patriots or some nonsense) convince people to put in donkey votes at best and vote for them at worst. All they need is a majority in parliament to push the crazy.
Americans haven't given up their consumerism, so a general strike is out of the question.
They need money for subscribing to digital entertainment they can be getting for free and to order food with delivery apps at 100% markup.
This generation sucks.
lol imagine not receiving your pay because you went on a strike
we did a blackout already, nothing happened. Barely even made news.
