How about we organize instead? Make it a goal to go to the protest this weekend, meet one person whose sign you like, get their contact details and agree to meet up at the next protest. It’s that easy to get the ball rolling.

Mainstream media is complicit with Trump’s fascism. Which is to be expected with capitalists.

General Infantry. I believe it’s a classification in the US Army, but it basically just means soldier.
- Comment on YSK that in 16 States in the USA has banned Ranked-Choice voting, including 5 that has just banned it in 2025, and 6 of those bans happened in 2024. 3 weeks ago:
Yeah that makes sense. I guess once people get used to ranked voting in large elections, then you could have it in small elections too. Thanks for the reply.

Ranked choice is still better though… scale doesn’t really matter here, the point is to let people vote for who they want, not for who they think might win.

This is what people mean when they say there is no ethical consumption in capitalism. Yes, you are a leech, but only because the system has forced you into it. In a different system, neither you nor the Ukrainian family would have housing insecurity.
I don’t say this to judge you, btw, I think we should applaud every landlord who keeps rent low. Just pointing out that it’s impossible to both “keep your hands clean” and “get ahead” in capitalism.
