Not opposing your comment at all, more of a rare occurrence fun fact: Even an actual (ie financially or personality effective) show of power is enough sometimes.
Eg unions in USA haven’t killed any tycoons for the longest time. But they do get a loaf of bread per week more in wages when they stop working for a few days.
Not all revolutions need to be as complete as the French or Russian (tho that works, but also costs a few years of instability & political power struggles), 10% of the elite de-elited (eg losing their wealth bcs of direct demos actions) would send a big message in USAs case.
Even just for something as mundane as protected bike lanes, I’ve found through personal experience that just a couple instances of direct action against motorists who tried to park in them was infinitely more effective than years of begging peacefully for barriers.
I’ve seen the other two & I just wish some laws would be passed making it legal to damage cars in a bike lane.
To circle back to the main topic - Americans should be required by law to disclose how likely they are to murder anyone involved when writing a claim to their insurer. Same thought process as the crossing with a brick.
Lol, “voting”.
Peaceful protest, electoralism, those are spooks. If you want to stop something, try physical destruction.

Lol, yes, exactly.

Haha, the crossing is funny.

Especially so in a system like in the USA
