Taking screen shots of one out of context sentence to get your loyal online syncophants to bully people, is not revolution. Take all that passion and use it for good, not online harassment.
I fight all the time in many ways. That was my initial point and I asked a genuine question. You started posting one random sentence, which is very unstable behavior. I wish you the best though.
I never attacked you. I said resistance takes all kinds of people. Healers, artists, cooks etc. Not every person can be arrested. I have been arrested for fighting cops before. Now in my life I can't as my kids need me. That's it. And then you went on this online attack. I stand by what I said.
While I completely believe this, I also believe that growing up learning to communicate through the internet and social media has caused a lot of problems. The younger folks have so much passion but they need direction and a plan. Stop in fighting and actually ORGANIZE AND MAKE A PLAN.
The other day I was talking to a friend of mine. An old activist who has been involved in grassroots community led resistance and organization efforts since the 80s. I said "The Dems underestimate Gen Z and that may be their downfall."
Okay. Good luck. This is why we are so far behind in this fight. Leftist fighting over imaginary threats. I am a single mom who works in social services in Medicaid LTC. I've literally been arrested before for kicking cops for being fascist and my first protest was in 1994 in LA but go on.
I'm not fighting or calling you names. I am involved in protesting this regime. I am stating it is impossible for every person to be in the streets and I am asking what the financial cutoff is to roast people?You're just seeing MAGA boogeymen and that won't help organize anything.
There is a sad irony in our union dues feeding our own coworkers who are not being paid enough. The system is broken when we are asking people to come to work fulltime in social services and not be able to buy food for their families.
This morning my Union emailed everyone with resources to apply for a grant from the union to cover any lost SNAP benefits this month for my coworkers. As a side note, many of my coworkers are the same people who issue these benefits every month.
I don't fear it at all. I've lived in poverty my whole life. I'm just asking you what your cutoff is? Nobody ever seems to have a clear answer or plan. Just lots of tag lines.
I have been fighting fascism probably longer than you have been espousing your basic thoughts. I've actually been arrested in the past for fighting police during protests. Have you? Doubtful. Like I said, you seem to lack an understanding of life's intricacies.
Did you miss the part about my two children who need to eat and need a home? Not shocking that the type of person who takes screen shots to try and bully someone is incapable of complex thought. I am not afraid of you.
You may have studied a lot but you lack a grasp of life's intricacies. Revolution takes all kinds of people. It takes healers, artists, cooks, medics, people to protest, etc.
I have a legitimate question. I am not willing to be arrested. This is because my job requires a background check, I work in long-term care supporting disabled citizens, I have two kids who need me as a single parent who gets zero financial help. Does this make me the enemy?
New tattoo? Perhaps a gift. 350 pounds? Untreated Diabetes and thyroid problems from no insurance and meds. New iPhone? Most come free with a 24 month plan and are needed in a technological world. So on and so forth. There are always more stories than the first assumptions.
I don't love Obama to be clear. I ador Zohran Mamdani and just the other day I said to a friend, "The Dems grossly underestimate Gen Z and that could be their downfall." However I stand by my argument that the benefit of being endorsed by Obama far eclipses any risks for Mamdani's career.
