    I highly doubt the fascist tRUMP and his like-minded cronies give a shit about people waving signs once every few months or so.
    Or any form of peaceful protests.
    They are probably laughing their voluminous man tits off about it.

    You’ll need to either get violent.
    Or shutdown certain systems, such as roads, on a countrywide scale for extended periods of time before they even think about giving a shit.

      I will respectfully reject your suggestion to turn to violence and encourage others in this thread to also not be incited to do so.

        Ha, there is no incitement because most americans are too complacent and mollycoddled to do anything. Maybe they’ll go for a walk once every few months and wave a sign, but that’s it.
        The orange buffoon knows this, which is why he gets away with all his shit.

        Anyways, what about the other option I mentioned?

          Your first proposal was to use violence, so let’s explore that thought.

          Would you take pride in living in a nation where political opponents are assassinated when half the country dissents? This doesn’t sound like a better society than what we have today.

            And you are dodging the question even after I told you why I think mass violence will never happen.

            “Would I take pride blah blah blah?”
            That’s, frankly, a daft question. No, obviously, I would not take pride in that.
            Christ, no sane person would take pride in that. Silly.

            However, do I think it is sometimes necessary, yes. Furthermore I think it was necessary for something (that’s something. Not necessarily burning buildings etc) to happen in the us since around 2016, though it was demonstrably broken before, but I’ll stick with 2016 as that was when the obese imbecile was first voted in.
            “Why? Blah.” you’ll ask. It’s because it is now blatantly obvious that if the us population will vote in a person so obviously corrupt AND so obviously compromised then the whole system is just totally broken, and needs a serious rethink.
            Also the Bush jr presidency wasn’t exactly great either. It was terrible for a lot of countries.

            Anyways, again, what about the other option I mentioned?
