Start getting organized and take this to the street. Start protesting peacefully but disruptively and then (and this is the uncomfortable part) when they meet you with violence, answer with violence.
I never claimed to be someone who’s in a position to fight back, but I’m certainly not going to try to convince people who are that it’s pointless to do so.
Is the “fighting back” in the room with us right now?
I feel what this dude is saying because its true. No one is able to do anything to stop it. The post we are commenting on right now is about how they murdered in cold blood an innocent person on the street.
Oh but don’t worry the national guard is on standby. What a fucking god damn joke.
There comes a point where it isn’t defeatist, its reality. And here we unfortunately are.
I get a feeling I’m going to be reposting this a lot in the near future.
Except you’re not dogs and you can see the torture machine for what it is. Or at least you have the power to, because the machine also always directs you to not think about the machine.
Being defeatist ensures the reality never changes. That’s what they’re banking on. You, us all, are being manipulated into compliance by a sophisticated, subtle and cruel hand that some call surveillance capitalism.
It is not a hopeless fight, things CAN be better. Only the desires of a handful of pathetic little men are in the way of that.
It breaks my heart too, but doing nothing will… do nothing to stop the violence that’s already all around you. From the bottom of my heart, I hope your kids can live in a better version of the USA.

I have kids. I’m not risking any sort of extra attention or violence.
Then shut up and stop trying to discourage those who might be willing to fight back.
“fight back”
You’re posting angsty comments online. That’s not fighting back.

Valid point.
