Mate, if you know how to organize a hundred million people from an area as large as the US, I'm all ears. I sure don't. I don't know if anyone does. We have small groups doing what they can, but it's not enough. I agree with you, we need collective action, but I'm at a loss for how to effect that.
I also understand the general frustration, both from inside the US and out, but these thinly veiled suggestions that we should go attack ICE agents or start rioting or whatever else that keep getting thrown around on Lemmy and elsewhere are not helpful, either. Yes, we're all frustrated, but taking brash, drastic action without the organization behind it will not solve anything.
I don't know if it's more frustrating when it comes from folks inside the US or out. If someone is inside the US and calling for frankly suicidal acts, and yet are not performing those acts themself, they're hypocrites, plain and simple. If someone is outside the US and calling for those acts... all I can say is, you aren't helping at all, and if you aren't willing to help organize or give us some ideas on how to organize, kindly keep those opinions to yourselves.
Join those small groups and participate. You don't need to be the organizer yourself; there are plenty of other roles that need to be played.
