People want to make an impact they should do it on fucking Black Friday. You need to hit capitalism where it hurts.

Do that too, but protesting gives folks the opportunity to connect with local resistance organizations and make a real, ongoing impact.

Sure just like the last one, am I right?

Exactly. Resistance movements take work and time. Or were you expecting instant results with zero time investment?

This shit started 30-40 years ago. How much time do you need?

[–] witten@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Depends. How recently did most of the population wake up to the fact that they're getting a raw deal?
