Bullshit.
Correct. Sounds to me like Americans should stop patting themselves on the back for doing protests like it’s the fuckin’ Bush era.
I think people can be proud of their actions while also improving. Not to mention, others might be inspired to follow their lead, people sitting on the fence one nudge away from joining.
But by all means. If you have any suggestions, how about provide them instead of berating people for standing up — especially when you yourself admitted it can be dangerous.
Are you saying that the resistance is simply suffering from a lack of imagination? The problem is that they just don’t know what they could possibly do? Jesus, you’re absolutely boned.
I don't have "the resistance" in the room with me right now to ask them what they do or don't know. But you seem to know, since you're being very critical that they're not doing the things you want them to do, without saying what they are — so I'm asking you what you personally think they should do rather than what they shouldn't.
