These are worthwhile events, and leftists shouldn’t shun them. But stopping Trump requires building power. If protests aren’t coupled with organizing, the right will win.
Look back in the history of the US. Specifically how the abolitionists in the Northern States resisted the Slave Republic that your founding daddies built up until your civil war. They gradually installed state governments that started putting in place state laws that resisted in practice the federal mandates to protect slavery. Things like the personal liberty laws. That’s your next move here: use municipalities and state governments and legislatures to pass laws that resist the enshittification of your democracy and get your local police to enforce them. Take power and use it. That’s what the article is trying to say too.
You got to go beyond protesting. Protesting is asking state power to do something. You got to take power wherever you can and resist, i.e., attach a cost to every authoritarian move. But to do that you need to let go the founding daddy issues and embrace the spirit of John Brown, Frederick Douglass, King, and X, i.e., stop revering the framework built by a bunch of white supremacist slavers and get to framing your own free multiracial democratic Republic.
i recommend going to the rally next time and linking up with the orgs there. put in some work and do some networking, you’ll probably feel a helluva lot better than sitting around removed about how unfair it all is into the void. speaking from experience on both ends now.
You don’t know what I’m doing solo. But you say join an org, and I’m saying they aren’t doing anything or you could show me. Then when you got mad I was right, you lash out with that lazy bs you fed simps always do lmfao.
What’s the end game?

Oh sweetie we don’t have time for that. It’s martial law by the end of the year. It’s OVER.
History doesn’t end when a tyrant takes power.

I don’t watch videos or use YouTube. If the information in important, people can make a document or a blog about it.

When I hear of a single thing these “orgs” accomplish, I’ll decide to operate in a group setting.
so you want everyone else to get started on the work, removed all the while about how its not being done to your satisfaction? fuck off lazy doomer.

That will be too late, but I’m glad to see someone can monetize this national tragedy
Alas, in the United States, that won’t be the rulers that will be the people. The US will never rise up.
