Here’s the full question (since Lemmy has title character limits): “With all the stuff going on with this administration and the Supreme Court, is it gonna take a revolution to stop this damn administration and the SCOTUS from curtailing people’s freedoms and liberties at this point because we’re way past the point of reform?”
Oh and how do you fight doomerism these days?


This is the best solution. If we can no longer count on our “representatives” to represent our needs in governance, we must build our own separate governance from the ground up to help one another. The Black Panthers knew they couldn’t trust the racist US government to help the black community, so they organized to help the community themselves. They mostly did community support projects, but they did have a set of armed members who essentially acted as a local police force since they also definitely couldn’t trust the police to protect them.
