Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I didn't say there wasn't any urgency. It's just that nonviolent resistance movements work by putting successive cracks in the regime's pillars of support—until ultimately the whole regime crumbles. And that necessarily takes time.
I agree with you that many Americans don't feel the urgency to respond to this crisis. But the number and variety of folks who do feel urgency is increasing over time, what with the growing desperate insanity of the regime. Just look at the folks from all walks of life joining the resistance to ICE/CBP in Minnesota. Or the ever-increasing number of everyday people coming out for each No Kings. Many Americans are head-in-the-sand, but their numbers are decreasing over time.
Where we disagree is around concrete demands. Resistance groups have made concrete demands against Avelo, Disney, Sinclair, and so on. And all of them have buckled under the pressure and acceded to those demands. And in many other cases, concrete demands are being made even if the pressure hasn't quite worked—yet.
