  • You’re absolutely right, it isn’t my skin in the game! Because it’s not my country! Weird how I’m not protesting huh? Isn’t the American psyche that they can do everything themselves, and better? Go at it!

    Just don’t complain you can’t protest because everyone lives paycheck to paycheck. US citizens have systematically voted all their rights away since the 80’s and now the chickens have come home to roost,. And it’s too late to do anything.




  • It might not be France, but you can still learn a lot from them. Stop with one day protests a la the Kings Day protests. Those don’t work. A protest with a deadline will just be waited out. If you want change, you stop when demands are met. If only 25% of the Kings day protestors went to DC and just sat there till change happened, things might have actually worked out. Spread over 2000+ locations and one day? Nothing will happen. Only maybe strengthen others in a shared goal. Sadly nobody marched to DC afterwards.

    Living paycheck to paycheck sucks, but if you’re not willing to commit and they know it. Why would they listen? It’s not going to improve like that. It’s clear the US gov doesn’t gives a rats ass about the wellbeing of the majority.

    It’s time for a salt march! Bernie Sanders maybe? Mamdani?
