      Its been a long time since crowds in the street could overthrow their government my friend.

      The entire idea of turning people against eachother using social media is to have them fight eachother and waste their lives and energy doing that, while Trump just keep saying ragebait things inbetween golf rounds to keep you in the anger zone.

      That’s a bad idea when he told the military that he is declaring war on American citizens and kegsbreath said he is encouraging extreme violence and humiliation be done to American civilians by the military. We need a peaceful solution like a general strike because they are trying to incite violence so that they have an excuse

        A general strike is the way. It kills capitalism quickly and once the rich turn on Trump, it’s over. He can’t justify using the military against that action like protests or riots. He’s impotent to do anything about it. If he tried to force people to work or some other insanity, the whole world would boycott the US. Just a couple days of a general strike would scare the living hell out of the owner class and Trump has no power without them behind him.
