Did you know that Republicans took it upon themselves to curb mail-in voting to prepare for the election and made it as hard as possible to do so in some states? And that many ballots were discarded for the most ridiculous reasons? And that there was a record turnout at the latest election, but for some reason, electronic ballots were discarded?
You can call people lazy all you want but that doesn’t reflect reality.
Are we? That’s news to me. I get out to vote and protest every chance I get. But I don’t see a shortage of people like you who want everyone to do just that.
Oh yeah let me just tap into my trust fund to survive the presumably year or more it would take “until fascism stops.” That’s the problem with you people, in reality no action taken is ever good enough so in effect you’re just another fatalistic asswipe.
Sure, bud. And what do you suggest people do, then?What’s your big plan for the American people? Lay down and die? Lose hope and let the fascists steamroll over them? How is that any better? I’m not hearing anything but negativity from you.
And you’re suggesting that because that has worked before? For a population that’s largely living paycheck to paycheck? The thing about fascism creeping in is that you still need to go to work every day and do your little tasks so you can survive.
I’ve looked at several sites and they all focus on one thing: building a coalition. You only get that by demonstrating it openly and getting people on your side. Because despite what you believe, the protests aren’t all for the fascists, but for the other people who haven’t gotten on board yet. And you need a catalyst, with defiance and force. You do things, not stand around and wait for it to be over.
grow up bud, I’m not here to gheer you up.
Oh no, you’re actively “gheering” people down and what’s my whole beef with these damn comments.
I see, so you want an effortless, risk free, guaranteed to work way to recover the democracy you threw out the window through years of apathy and “fuck you, got mine” attitude?
Effortless? Lol! What part of being politically active on top of doing work do you find effortless? Have you ever done it, even? Because I’m sure you’ll be the one providing food, right? Or are you speaking out your butt from the comfort of your privilege?
And also curious that you think people will all organize to do nothing by doing nothing. Yeah, being demonized as lazy is going to work wonders. Like, what part of getting people on your side does not register?
Also, idk to what kind of monolithic American you’re speaking to from that high horse, but it’s quite obvious you’ve never lived in the States if that’s what you think Americans are like. Basing your shitty opinions on pure stereotypes. For shame.

and you are all bravely sitting down… good job
Are we? That’s news to me. I get out to vote and protest every chance I get. But I don’t see a shortage of people like you who want everyone to do just that.
I want you to stand up, go on a general strike, paralize your country until fascism stops… as it is, we are all suffering because of you
Nothing would make me happy than to be proven wrong.
ps: complaining online and marching on Sundays is sitting down and taking it
