    I know we loved the leaded solution and we won’t cry if more happens but yeah at the of the day the system will need a legal reform to properly depose the parasites.

    Shootings might continue until morale improves?

      I feel like there’s a real chance they will continue… The reaction to this was just so insanely positive, despite the fact a man was murdered.

      Have we ever seen anything like this as a country before? I’m genuinely curious…

        History is already absolutely littered with examples of this, and its a miracle there hasnt been more of it yet in the US.

      My morale is already improving personally. 3 lead tablets a day keeps the insurance companies at bay. Guaranteed to get you a better rate.

      What’s easier, motivating hundreds of thousands of people to get out and protest, or letting a few moderately motivated people take direct action?

        Not protest. Y’all need at least a general strike to have a shot at doing something. That or found/get behind a third party and kill the DNC.

          You are correct but the person you are responding is more correct

    The problem in my country is that most people are complacent and could care less to do anything about it aside from trying to overthrow the government because they had to wear masks and take a vaccine.

      Dont forget that at its core those people are outraged with the hand they were dealt, the GOP is just very good at directing that anger where they want (in that case masks and vaccines). However there is an option where we can stop dem vs gop fighting at a citizen level, and channel our outrage together at the people who are actually ruining our lives, billionaires and their government lackeys. Otherwise its total economic collapse, or WW3

        For me, it’s canada, and the liberal and conservative party. As it stands, the cons will win a majority goverment if there was an election called today, as there is alot of distaste for justin trudeau. The thing i’m most afraid of is bringing ethno-christian values into the country as legal laws, and cutting programs that benefit canadians, like the cons have done in the past.

          Yeah its the same in the US. Ultimately its just a wedge issue to keep left and right fighting each other so that the capitalists can continue to rob us all blind.

            The problem is that people my age, and older are complacent, or want the conservatives to win. They are brainwashed by social media and love trump.

              Stop thinking about con vs lib, that’s step 1. Its the 99 against the 1. The more you discuss liberal this, conservative that, the more divided we are, the less we can actually affect change.

    We’ve had several mass movements about it over the past 15~20 years, the only thing that has worked so far is lead poisoning.

    Yeah a small mass of lead with a lot of movement behind it would do wonders to the brain of most ceo’s
