Alt-text: Protest can be organized through social media, but nothing is real that does not end on the streets. If tyrants feel no consequences for their actions in the three-dimensional world, nothing will change.

But so much can be done offline it's crazy that we hold on to this belief that we need to go to the streets.
Why? What are you doing in the streets that can't be done better online?
You can't fight a fascist takeover of your country from your couch. I know it's not the American way, but you have to go out and change it yourself.
Why? Seriously.
It's probably the best way.
Please truly explain to me why. What are you saying is the winning strategy.
I think it really depends on who you are fighting and what you are trying to accomplish.
Personally, I feel Congress is to blame for much of this mess. they could end all of this tomorrow. Congress doesn't give 2 shits what I post online, so its a waste of my time to change their mind online.
In short, pick your goal, then choose your strategy.
I don't really know what to say other than you're wrong. Like on so many levels. The whole system is literally about representing people and people create demands based on culture. Culture identity and public opinion is the root here. It's why there's so much attention by powerful people to control it. The left is really showing how ignorant they are to basic concepts here.
And how do you propose we change culture when we can't afford to purchase twitter or tiktok to sway public opinion?
What im proposing is a grassroots movement based on community.
That's insane. How do you propose a grassroots movement in real life when you can't even muster that online. How does that make and sense to you. It's like you're building a fire and asking me why don't I start with the huge logs instead of the kindling. I'm just honestly frustrated the reasoning and logic of it all because I know so many of you feel that same way. The left are behind the times.
I swear to god, people like you deserve to lose your democracy.
There's no collection of spineless wombles quite like the American left.
No you're wrong and always have been. But most are like you and that's why the left is where they are now. You're socially and politically confused about how you accomplish your goals. There's another user saying you gotta go light buildings on fire. The left is done because of people like you
