    Well, I hope it made everyone feel better, but I doubt it accomplished much.

      Because as everyone knows, political change only happens spontaneously, without any organization in the lead up, and people are famously fired up by sitting around at home until we all get the magic signal to go cut politicians’ heads off

        Snark all you want, but if protests actually changed anything we wouldn’t be where we are now. If anything they just function as a placebo. Everyone goes home content that they Did Something, the powers that be chuckle to themselves, and nothing happens. You only know protest has been effective when they start to complain, like with people setting Teslas on fire.

          Going around discouraging people to fight for their convictions isnt going to change anything either, ever thought of that?

            I’m all for people doing that, but if you’re gonna fight then fucking fight. Milling around waving cardboard signs ain’t it. The people going after Tesla are doing it right.

                I think you mean “martial law.” Marshall Law is probably the name of a porn star. At any rate, if that’s too far for you then fine, but don’t act like your cardboard sign did jack shit besides maybe amuse the media for 30 seconds.
