ICE Out for Good vigils and rallies are being tracked online by Indivisible, the group behind the No Kings protests
More than a thousand protests are planned across the US this Saturday and Sunday after an ICE agent killed US citizen Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis this week.
“This weekend, people all over are coming together not just to mourn the lives lost to ICE violence, but to confront a pattern of harm that has torn families apart and terrorized our communities,” said Leah Greenberg, co-executive director of Indivisible, an organizer of “ICE Out for Good Weekend of Action”.
And those seven Million people met and then went home… So what I’m asking for is…. what happened? Nothing. What were the gains? None.
Because as far as I can tell, Trump—the self-proclaimed president of Venezuela—is going to take over another country pretty soon… Pretty sure that makes him a king.
Getting people organized is the first step, getting them to actually vote is the second. That’s where we’re at in 2026.
If they succeed in motivating people to vote out the Republicans, that’s all it takes.
lol. Organization. Voting. Come November you’ll wish you sided with action—but it will be too late.
Organizing and voting is the action.
A revolution is a pipe dream, it’s not happening.
Oh sweetie, there is no revolution. Not with people who silence revolution controlling the conversation of the Internet.
The best you can hope for is to stay alive for the next 50 years during the Republican regime.
I’ve been alive through this before…
1969-1976
1981-1992
2001-2008
2017-2020
2025-2028
There have only been a few Democratic breaks:
1977-1980
1993-2000
2008-2016
2021-2024
It will likely flip back in 2028, but we have to flip the House back in 2026, ideally the House and Senate but that’s unlikely.
JFC, that’s the solution? Wait 10 months and hopefully flip house but probably not the Senate?
Then everything returns to the stagnant status quo that resulted in this situation in the first place. Dems continue to be toothless, Republicans continue to prevent anything from happening, continue to face zero consequences, and are further emboldened to go even further next time because why the fuck not? Either they succeeded in the fascist takeover or nothing happens and they just try again.
That’s the best you can hope for?
That’s the only recourse short of a revolution or a civil war which would be 1000x more destructive.
If going back to doing nothing and kicking the can down the road is the only way to avoid a civil war then I have bad news for you: you’re not avoiding anything, you’re just trying to delay it for another 4 years while things continue to get worse and more people get killed.
“Everything is going to be fine”
Famous last words.
So, if the dems don’t flip it in 26, you’ll eat your hat or just keep on believing a lie?
What lie would that be?
