    Direct action is digging the well knowing that you will be arrested for it but doing it anyway because your community will be better off for it.

    Need guerilla construction to build seating and canopies at bus stops in LA. The Sun is a deadly laser.

      LA has the money. How much fraud and waste are people overlooking? Could have funded a thousand sets of covered seating easily. Fix fraud with direct action, don’t wait on the system that benefits from it.

        fraud and waste

        Be nice if people stopped parroting the current fascist admin with their bullshit assumptions.

        Likem ost social issues, assholes with more money than empathy (e.g. NIMBYs) prevent these things from being erected.

    Even if the state digs the well for you, they’ll come along one day and fill it in because they changed their mind.

    Reform is temporary, it is never the solution.
