using "what were YOU doing at the devils sacrament" to mean "yeah i made an embarrassing reference but you understood it which is also embarrassing" is very funny to me
my favorite part is that absolutely nobody says this except here. so if you use it in public, it's a dead giveaway that you spent the last ten years on tumblr. but then again, they recognized it, which means they were at the devil's sacrament
Well, that's just not true.
The most famous protest in US history was peaceful and effective.
I just don't think these tiny protests with people waving snarky signs are doing much at the moment.
Activism and protesting need to be strategic and organized. If you can only convince 20 people to stand outside a Tesla dealership, that probably won't do much.
If you get 250,000, that is another story.
Smaller peaceful protests can work if you do them right. Like say, filling the lobby of Trump Tower.
I think activism requires action from many vectors. Sometimes that does require civil disobedience. Vandalizing Teslas seems to be scaring people into selling them or just not buying them.
And the boycotts in Europe are plunging the stock. If Elon loses the company, that would be huge. Apparently he used his Tesla stock as collateral to buy Twitter.
But the Left's biggest issue right now is lack of organization. We are so splintered. We are riddled with infighting. And it doesn't help that Democratic leadership is... uninspiring.
I really hope we can get our shit together soon. I think AOC and Bernie and Tim Walz doing town halls in red districts is a good start. The Republican leadership has directed reps to avoid speaking to the people.
Numbers work. I think they work better than anything. Authorities are scared of numbers which helps with the peaceful part. And if shit goes down, the authorities end up looking bad. When police arrested 60,000 people during Gandhi's Salt March, it was a real bad look. Because it was just a bunch of people walking and making their own salt.
I think activism needs to make our leaders fear the populace. But we also have to win hearts and minds. And sometimes those goals can be conflicting or we forget about one over the other.
There were ~90,000,000 people that did not vote in the presidential election. If we could reach them and win the House back, that could really limit the damage.
So we need to not just fuck shit up.
We need to win hearts and minds. Make some motherfucking salt.
If it were me in charge, I'd start organizing mass acts of compassion.
Set up food drives in places where egg prices are highest. Give out some free eggs.
Set up a job fair in places that have mass government job losses. Find small local businesses that are hiring. Have clothing donations for job interviews and people to help write resumes.
Set up free mobile health clinics in deep red places that are about to lose Medicaid. Free check ups for kids and veterans and anyone else. And some vaccines to piss off RFK Jr.
If we organize and help the people who Trump is hurting, we can win those hearts and minds.
Don't give up on peaceful action as a tool. If done right, it can be more powerful than anything else.
I enjoy a good Cybertruck vandal as much as the next person, but seeing collective action on this scale gives me much more hope.
Peace can work.
Just gotta have the numbers.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
Here's a fun story of malicious compliance to brighten your day:
Until recently, a few people in my office had these desk shades to combat the obnoxious fluorescent lights, which is very helpful for people (like me) with migraines or other light-sensitivity issues.
A few days ago, everyone who has them was told to take them down. Different people were given different reasons - It violates fire code (it doesn't) / It blocks line of sight (sort of?). Since this goes against the existing status quo, the union reps (my beloved) jumped on it. Someone jokingly suggested using umbrella hats instead, since hats are allowed in the dress code. Today, the union reps are passing out these ridiculous things in protest:
If the rules are absurd, the resistance should match.

This has 200k notes but none of you know the truth of the I Hate Rubber Boots Guy. This man lives in my city. He wears this outfit constantly. The Weird Toronto photo group has a ban on posting him because heās always like this.Ā He has done this for years. Every so often he buys a taller pair of rubber boots.
