  • No, don’t ever organize like this. We are on the left. We are smart and we are righteous. We do not plan and coordinate and work together in this behavior. This would be sneaky and take social skills and foresight. No we need to gather in downtown Chicago with signs and megaphones. Protest in the streets. Only protest. We’re not animals like trumpets who do this stuff and get away with it and never let up. They don’t know the power of chaining themselves to a fence. They don’t get the rush and mighty feeling when the crowd boos you and tells you to go home and throws things at you. No they don’t understand. They don’t understand we do it for them.









  • I’m an idiot, I thought this was a March 😂

    But this is still super not effective. How do people think this affects anything. It also is kind of ick too. If you have the energy and time you organize this, why not just shit post for a week instead. You’ll get more mileage. The most effective thing is spreading a message. I have no idea what refusing to buy things for a day will do. You need to spread a message so this action can be sustain. It needs to be a new Zeitgeist. This “do this for a day” stuff acts more like a pressure relief. Like we all watch the day come and go and nothing changes then we go back to our lives. Instead, make content and posted outside our echo chambers at a level that moderation can’t sustain. This is what the Republicans did. Get your message to the faces of people who fence sit








  • But also these cameras also solve a problem much faster and just seems like common sense whereas trying to fix some abstract core Zeitgeist that may or may not solve the issue isnt much to sink our teeth into. It’s like someone asking you to fix their toilet and you’re like “well what is a toilet and maybe the issue is you don’t earn enough money to pay a plumber” like great, you’re right in one regard, but the toilet is broken and you could fix it
