    I mean, at the VERY LEAST, you could do one of those cute marches during a week day… maybe start there

    This is you right now!

    The real problem here is that you painted your collective selves to a corner by apathy and inaction… now, pretty much any option left does require some sacrifice but God forbid you had to move a finger and crack a nail… better let other people keep dying so you can keep watching the game with a beer in hand

      Liberal Americans are just waiting out a hypothetical course correction to a more polite and slower collapse of the empire. They are completely unwilling to consider that the US government and the country itself is the bad guy.

      It’s about time we stopped saying things like ”Trump attacked Venezuela” – the US did. Americans happily killed those people. And the killers’ relatives support them. Americans on Lemmy support them, claiming there’s nothing the killers could have done: they were just following orders.

      Ultimately, the reason why supposed opponents of the Trump regime are looking for you and others to provide them with a clear path for how to decisively defeat the entirety of the US government in one fell swoop, is that their red lines, at which they’re willing to fight, win or lose, have not been crossed yet. Everything so far has been tolerable to them.

      This separates them from the Maga grassroots Americans, that notably managed to storm the Capitol.
