Alright, I’ll bite, cause I’ve been posting what I really think and people keep wanting to downvote me even though I’m right.
We should have been storming these fucking concentration camps day one, with our own weapons and armor. We should have been shoving ICE’s faces into the mud and not let them up to breathe. We should be standing guard on city corners with our own assault rifles (like that one vet did a few years ago and got in trouble for it, even though he was fully licensed and within his rights to carry his weapon; he was also a leftie.
The US is fucking done unless we can get people like you to pull their heads out of their asses and realize that these peaceful protests (protests in general really) aren’t doing damn near anything they should be.
After the last election showed us the ballot box is rigged and the courts show us the jury box is useless…we are long past time to crack open box #4 and every one of these masked ice shitbags should be shot on sight.

I mean, unfortunately it’s all of us including all western powers. A citizen of any European country and a citizen in the US have about as much power to force direct change on the US government, pretty much zero. And it’s for the same reason, the US government has a near total monopoly on violence.
The same reason Americans do not arm themselves and take to the streets domestically is the same reason Europe still trades with and largely supports our foreign diplomacy, the US gov has enough hard power to shape geopolitics.
Unless we get a significant portion of the American population to take to the streets or a significant portion of global leaders to create a united front against America, the US Gov will continue to do as it pleases.
Unfortunately the majority American barley care about their fellow citizens, let alone people they see as foreigners. If you practice direct violent action without the will of the people, the centerist of the world will see that show of force as evidence that the state was right to suppress radicals. They will side with the state and allow the state to justify a real show of force.
Historically violent action needs to be paired with a less radical movement. Every Malcolm X needs an MLK to garter general appeal and offer the state safe middle ground to retreat too. The problem now a days is that we don’t even have an MLK like figure. The Democratic party has become soo used to accommodating the right that they can’t even tolerate their being a middle ground.
Sarcasm is not helpful. Speak what you really think.
Nazi lives matter they have families who would miss them hurting them like that would be wrong

Box 4 may as well be rotting in the shed, full of spiders at this point.

But what if I don’t want the FBI to raid my house?
