I’d like to thank everyone for my most upvoted post on lemmy ever. Not only have you upvoted it to the top for like 2 days you commented the shit out of it. I’d like to take this opportunity to say fuck the mods of this instance. This was my second post coming off a 30 day ban and I want to say these fucking mods have been nothing but bitches. I’ve never been more attacked on any other instance, subreddit, forum, etc. then I have been in this fucking instance. Not only have I been attacked I’ve been told my memes arent memey enough again and again.
I’ll be honest, I do not know how to make a meme but I keep posting just to piss in these mods cheerios.
Thanks lemmy.world/politicalmemes for being the worst community I’ve ever been a part of.
LMAO all the people in this thread crying about how there is gonna be a “revolution.”
There ain’t gonna be a revolution. You all won’t do shit. Lemmy posters make way too much money to do anything other than talk about revolution.
Nothing is going to change. lol
I mean, we’re big boys, with our big boy pants and all!
Let’s see how they respond when they can’t unnerve us…
I agree. The mods here are idiots.
For example, we reversed this ban.
That was wild as fuck. I didn’t think for a second you would even be capable of that much. Know why you didn’t though, it sucks to put yourself out there and have someone mouth off to you but at the end of the day it’s just mouthing off. Even if you feel you didn’t deserve it.
I’m too thick skinned too let this get to me.
Having 5 kids will do that
Have fun.
These are the kind of people that can’t even run into each others without going ballistic over a simple greeting and you expect them to enact a revolt LMAO 🤣

they are protesting literally Nationwide in front of every Capital in every state.
Alabama More than 200 protesters gathered outside Alabama’s Statehouse
Alaska An estimated 123 people gathered outside Alaska’s capitol building
Arkansas Approximately 200 protesters gathered on the outside Arkansas’s capital
California During the February 5 protest, over 1,000 protesters gathered near the west steps of California’s capitol building
Florida Around 300 protesters gathered outside the Florida State Capitol
…I mean seriously?
Denver had 4,000, Boston had a thousand, over 50 states(even your red ones), you have tens of thousands of people taking part in these protests simultaneously across the Nation.
and this is only one of the many protests going on.
this single protest is getting tens of thousands of people while other protests are happening.
so yes.
seriously.
Considering the gravity of the situation, those numbers are devastatingly low.
Two weeks ago in Munich 250000 people protested against a fascist party – before elections even started. Just to put things into perspective.
Okay I’ll be blunt here: This is nothing and if this is Americans’ idea of resisting then y’all are never going to beat fascism. Historians will look at this period and say there was very little popular resistance to Trump’s regime.
I want you to understand what it is you’re talking about when you say things like this:
You are asking for what it’s the equivalent of all of Europe revolting against leadership that never leaves Prague.
America is really fucking big. I live in Seattle. I have been protesting. But my state officials are already more or less on my side
For me to protest in a way that actually causes a problem for the people in power I would need to drive no less than 41 hours if I didn’t sleep. Realistically it’s 3-4 days each way. Or hundreds of dollars in airfare or train tickets.
And of course I’d be fired for missing work.
I’m pissed as any American but what the fuck am I supposed to do? Asking America to revolt isn’t like asking England or France or Belgium. Our leaders are in a proverbial ivory tower and we’ve been stripped of any ability to effect change through anything but a national strike, which has not been successfully organized, largely due to the scale required.
We have 341m people on 10M km² of land. Compare that to somewhere like Germany with 84m people on 357k km²
It’s a much easier proposition getting 10% of Germans to their capital than getting 10% of Americans to ours
You should coordinate strikes countrywide and don’t stop striking until conditions are met. Like the writers of Hollywood did. They reached their goals.
Everyone who needs to strike is living paycheck to paycheck. Nobody wants to become homeless in order to strike. And our media and networking are largely controlled by compromised assets.
I’ve been in and out of politics as a personal interest since the early 2000a. We’re in a really bad situation right now.
Without a central voice to organize and lead people we’re not going to be able to coordinate enough people across the country
They can’t just let all paycheck to paycheck people die. And you can try looking after yourself, since the government seems not to care anyway
Don’t sell your crops to megacorp but give it to fellow strikers for free, for example
Don’t code for fascists, but create tools to organise yourself in a save manner
Health care workers, don’t sell the medicines and your work, steal all medicines possible and give them to fellow strikers
Don’t clean any public properties
Use your skills for the good, not the evil
They CAN let all paycheck to paycheck people die and will happily do it.
Why do you think they’re cutting medicaid and social security?
This country is fucked and the people who SHOULD be leading the resistance, the democrats, would rather whine helplessly because they are down 1-2 seats in congress.
Americans are already revolting.
