I’d like to thank everyone for my most upvoted post on lemmy ever. Not only have you upvoted it to the top for like 2 days you commented the shit out of it. I’d like to take this opportunity to say fuck the mods of this instance. This was my second post coming off a 30 day ban and I want to say these fucking mods have been nothing but bitches. I’ve never been more attacked on any other instance, subreddit, forum, etc. then I have been in this fucking instance. Not only have I been attacked I’ve been told my memes arent memey enough again and again.
I’ll be honest, I do not know how to make a meme but I keep posting just to piss in these mods cheerios.
Thanks lemmy.world/politicalmemes for being the worst community I’ve ever been a part of.
Edit2:
What a joke
violent rebellion is almost always a lost cause effort. It’s the thing you go to when literally everything around you is burning down and you’re going to die already.
Agree, I think it’s kind of what I mean, or maybe I misinterpret your point ?
Last non violent rebellions, like the HK yellow umbrella, or the yellow jackets in France, have always been met with violence, whether political, or physical. Prison, disappearance, chopped arms, punctured eyes etc
i 100% agree with your statement, i think we might disagree on intention though.
A lot of people are here arguing that the US should be doing a bolshevik revolution 2 electric boogaloo right now, even though basically nothing has changed.
Maybe 3 years from now that will happen, but it’s hard to say.
The big problem is that the amount of effort, and the numbers killed, will be much smaller if done before all democratic infrastructure has been destroyed. The flipside, as you rightly allude, is not enough people yet understand where this going, and thus action may be seen as too precipitate.
When everything has been burned down and it’s blatantly obvious how this goes it will be VERY hard to over throw it
this is highly debatable, right now you have about one entire roughly functional piece of the federal government, and about 30% of the population willing to fight over it, and probably some additional that are going to get caught in the cross fire. These people are GOING to resist, and they’re going to resist effectively, because most of the government structure and logistics to supply the, currently exists.
If you wait until everything has collapsed, more people may die in the meantime, but now you’re fighting against what is effectively the russian military during the invasion of ukraine in 2022 or whenver, as opposed to the current modern day US military that has in service F-35s. And numerous allies (who may or may not support them)
You’re effectively fighting as a person with no experience and a lot of (misplaced) motivation, against someone who is trained, experienced, and aware of the situation.
As opposed to an opportunist making opportunist moves in an opportunistic environment. (the suitable one)
