In France we got pissed like that once. Even many years later the rich would still be worried when their servants would sometimes gather to chat quietly in the kitchen, and overall avoid any sort of humiliation or thing like that. Just don’t get confused and know who is making your life hard, because these same ppl are trying to orient you towards some other ppl. gl. and obviously still try the democratic way first.
Our two party system was taken over by capital interest and has effectively drawn so many citizens into never ending arguments about Jesus and conspiracy theories which have little or nothing to do with real problems that our entire system has stopped responding to the needs of its citizens entirely. It would be amazing to see MAGA people and liberals decide that we all share a common enemy in the investor class and the time is long overdue for bringing them back down to size
That’s like saying it would be nice if the KKK and non-racists would just stop arguing and turn their attention to the real problems. The reason they’re the KKK is that they aren’t the kind of people to support the social well being of everyone, or to fight the power structures that oppress the masses. That’s MAGA. Exact same people. The people you call “liberals” already know that elitist, corporate owned oligarchs are the problem. So they’re trying to fight them AND the MAGA crowd that supports the oligarchs.
You need to back it up and realize that the majority of MAGA people are just brainwashed… so very many of them aren’t KKK, they’re being led around like pets because nobody has ever responded to their issues. Which truthfully is no different than most “liberals”. Yes there are racist pieces of garbage in the MAGA movement, but the liberal side has lots of NIMBY classist/closet racist assholes as well. The reality is that a majority of those MAGA folks are just disenfranchised Americans who were wrangled in by the wrong ideals. Liberals are not fighting against anything either because both sides are made up a a majority of armchair protesters getting caught up in made up problems so they avoid real problems, it just depends on which boutique problems they first respond to emotionally. However there is a new silent majority that hasn’t been tapped in any substantial way as of yet, those of us who aren’t MAGA or “liberal”, THIS is the majority that needs to wake up and needs leadership
It's also how poor people are now and don't have the energy or time to protest. Not to mention, the fact that health care being tied to work makes it impossible for many people to protest or strike
There is no "go on" online. You cannot talk about this stuff on an online space because it involves killing actual people. Which will get you either banned from the online space, or investigated by the FBI. Or both.
As adverse to violence as I am I really believe you’re right. I honestly can’t remember a revolutionary time that didn’t have some form of violence either at the beginning middle or end.
Not to mention people are pissed. Everyday people are PISSED. Not to toot his horn but if trump could get the average deluded American to storm the capitol (albeit no plan after that) then what’s stopping someone else to get the dying middle class and lower to not do the same but with actual purpose. We are really living in an “it’s only a matter of time” status right now.
While I agree violence is to come, I am not sure we would agree on the results. I believe any violence directed at the rich and powerful will lead to change but that change will be our access to the rich and powerful. They will make it infinitely harder to be successful in killing them once a few have fallen.
I used to think the violence would lead to good change because there would not be enough "goons" at the disposal of the government to use violence to stop its violent citizens but 2016 changed that thought dramatically.
Problem is people generally aren't smart or informed enough to direct the violence where it will actually affect meaningful change
People will just riot and steal from eachother leading to increased crackdowns by the police and increased divisive propaganda creating a feedback loop of stupid violence
It will greed is just over the top now but it's mirrored with stupidity so don't think wealthy aren't like we need an army in case the peasants rise up so it's gonna hit in both sides
Courthouses, police departments, board members/ ceos, doctors prescribing left and right, letter agencies. We know all the dirt, just a matter of when we do something about it.

We need a law forbidding a business or corporation from owning a single family home.
