So when are you planning on going out to actually prosecute that revolution you're memeing about? Because I'm seeing a lot of memes and not a lot of stringing fascists up by their ankles.

"Me" is also one of the "grey NPCs" sooo
Why ankles when it could be necks?
Morbid jokes aside. I agree, nothing will change without intense and painful protest or revolution. Peaceful protest only works when your opposition has a conscience.
Yeah that's fair. Not normally a fan of tradition, but I'd be happy make an exception here.
"Resistance theater" is a great term.
It's also a term describing the protest non-voters.
I've got a solution, get rid of Facebook and Fox News in your Maga people's lives. Put parental controls on their TVs if you can and try to convince them that Fox News was bought out or something. It's the constant deluge of bullshit that's causing this.
MAX FISHER: The places where Facebook usage - not general internet usage, but specifically Facebook usage - was significantly above the average for Germany, the number of attacks on refugees was also well above the average.
SHAPIRO: That's author Max Fisher, who writes about this research in his new book, "The Chaos Machine." It's not just that violence against refugees went up in places where people used Facebook a lot. The researchers also looked at outages - Facebook disruptions - and they found that when the platform went offline in a specific place, attacks against refugees in that community dropped.
FISHER: Extended time on social media is addictive, and it changes your behavior, and it changes the way that your mind works. And it does that in a consistent direction towards more outrage, more extreme ideas and a greater hatred of us versus them.
Just remember to always vote for the least worst, because there is no good, so that's the best you can do. And fascists are always the worst, by a mile.
Me in my 20s: "NO EFF YOU! NO COMPROMISE!"
Me, tired, in my 30s: "1 vote for Kodos, please"

How'd "not voting to punish the dems" work last time?
It's really weird to blame individuals for the failures of an organization. They can plan and change and strategize. The random voter your screaming at is a void. Stop being angry at the void, be angry at the thing that can actually change and do something.
