Millions across the US rallied against Trump's authoritarian agenda in nationwide No Kings protests, featuring speeches, performances, and massive crowds.
Each group is working on their own steps for this. And honestly that’s the strength of the resistance movement—it’s distributed, not top-down. Some groups will fail, but some will succeed. And “success” doesn’t mean that a group takes some action and instantly Trump is out of office and all of his cronies are behind bars. It means that a single win is achieved that gets us closer to that goal and puts ever-widening cracks in the regime’s pillars of support. This is a marathon, not a sprint.
That’s not how the Nazis in power see this, and ultimately why your slow marathon will leave you with none to save, nothing to eat.
Urgency is paramount to any successful revolution.
Americans don’t have that urgency to respond to crisis.
Tis why you’re failing to even form concrete demands.
Until the urgency to survive isn’t ingrained in your movement, your parties will be subdued, bomb, and deathcamped.
I didn’t say there wasn’t any urgency. It’s just that nonviolent resistance movements work by putting successive cracks in the regime’s pillars of support—until ultimately the whole regime crumbles. And that necessarily takes time.
I agree with you that many Americans don’t feel the urgency to respond to this crisis. But the number and variety of folks who do feel urgency is increasing over time, what with the growing desperate insanity of the regime. Just look at the folks from all walks of life joining the resistance to ICE/CBP in Minnesota. Or the ever-increasing number of everyday people coming out for each No Kings. Many Americans are head-in-the-sand, but their numbers are decreasing over time.
Where we disagree is around concrete demands. Resistance groups have made concrete demands against Avelo, Disney, Sinclair, and so on. And all of them have buckled under the pressure and acceded to those demands. And in many other cases, concrete demands are being made even if the pressure hasn’t quite worked—yet.
Thanks.
Seems these groups are not clear what more steps are necessary for Nazi liberation.
