Listen,
for folks who don’t know, I was a part of a small organizing team that led to a mass mobilization in 813 cities worldwide in 2019.I am not talking out of my ass.
You should be VERY VERY VERY careful in this environment about sharing flyers for events that identify NO organizer

You're viewing a single thread.
5th Nov 2024 - was the chance to prevent this. Trump's team made it clear on the direction they were heading and no-one heeded the warnings. 35% didn't vote and the majority of those that did voted for him, which either means they agree with the direction or were deluded into thinking it wasn't going to happen.
I'm all for protest but I don't think you have a chance of changing anything, he owns the legislature and the voting public allowed it to happend.
I'm not American or a resident of US but that's just my opinion as an outsider.
ah yes, voting, famously known for being the only way humans have ever changed their material circumstances.
now that voting has failed us, the only thing left to do is nothing!
Sadly voting didn't fail you. US is in the same predicament UK was in after Brexit. Complacency at the expected outcome, a belief that some people couldn't be so stupid as to vote for Trump/Brexit and yet, they did in the majority.
Regardless of how fucked up the election process is, inany countries I'm not singling out the US, that is the reason that you feel failed, look at your countrymen that swallowed the snake oil and ask the question why?
I made huge stink about those that failed to vote. Meanwhile people blame third parties. Bro they voted at least.
