the American revolution didn’t actually start until Lexington and Concord. it was then further fueled by vile acts of aggression against American colonists.
the threat of the spread of communism allowed the US to enter into the Korean war.
the threat of terror attacks on the American public allowed the US to invade Iraq and even overthrow the leader the CIA put into power.
People don’t react to stories. people react to stimulus. fear, hunger, sex, pain, greed. these are the things that motivate us to take action. because, why would we risk what we have unless we’re motivated to do so.

Stories make people feel things, like anger. Anger gives people lots of energy and motivation to act.
The LA riots for example were sparked by the lack of justice after the police’s brutal assault on Rodney King.

stories are based on acts. nobody gives a shit how little jenny was raped. all they react to is the act of rape.
nobody gives a shit if Trump raped children because it’s all a part of the story now.
you heard the story a hundred thousand times by now. you’re sick of it, and don’t want to hear about it anymore.
this is what mainstream media is used for.
stories are used to satiate the masses.

Speak for yourself.
Look, you can disagree all you want, whatever. What would you propose instead, to try and fight against the Epstein class?

capture actual footage of the culprits attempting to circumvent justice in a way that commoners can understand.
get video footage of Trump gloating about how stupid MAGA is and how he’s just using them to build his kingdom of filth.
record backroom deals with CEOs that are killing people for greed.
and release them on multiple platforms for the general public to see and react.
it’s not a story if it’s plain as day that these people want you dead, it’s just a fact.
