    Yeah, we’re just finding out this whole thing was a circus to make us believe there was some form of order and justice. Clearly there isn’t. What are we gonna do about it now that we’re all wage slaves struggling to pay our bills?

    Think we can organize a global strike? Bring the world economy to a standstill? Create new political parties and try to take over through democratic means? You think they’ll just LET US? No. We’re beyond fucked.

    Nobody will want to give up their comfort to protest any of this. It’s just brown people getting killed anyway, amirite? (Of course I’m being sarcastic with this sentence just in case some people think I’m being literal.)

      up until the forced drafting starts will people actually put up or shut up and die when they are guaranteed to lose their comfort by default and get shipped off to a forever war in Iran and countries that allow Iranian forces to use their land.

        Hopefully escalating gas prices will be enough to get people out there first. Americans are not used to feeling the repercussions of “finding out” after “fucking around” on the global stage.

        We all better be crossing our fingers folks. Hope that our action takes use far enough. But I just go outside, look at some of the people in this world, and they’re still so fucking asleep.

            Infrastructure is so reliant on cars in the US, and even Canada. Mass amounts of people can’t get groceries w/o a car. Can’t afford the gas to get your unaffordable groceries? Might just be another pain point in the stack, but does stack one on top of the other.
