The dems don’t shy away from making strikes or protests illegal (look at the way students are getting beat up by the police today). Protesting has always been a risk and it will be a bigger risk during a trump presidency. However the people outnumber the police massively and killing the whole population is economically just not feasible for the ruling class. What I’m saying is that the equation is not as simple as just saying that you should vote for the ‘lesser evil’, because the lesser evil will grow more evil if they don’t face any repercussions. I’m also saying that the people who are actively partaking in protests are doing a lot more for a better world than someone who just votes once every few years. And calling the current anti genocide protesters fascists is a huge insult to any civil rights movements that have successfully taken place in the past.
I don’t think you’ve read what I wrote and if you did you did so with a large portion of prejudices. I’m also not the person ‘moralising’ here lol, I’m here in this thread arguing because I find it disturbing that the op frames anti genocide protesters as ‘fascists’. I’d argue that calling people fascist for having a different opinion on the workings of the US electoral systems and the power of protestation is actually more moralistic. I’m giving my point of view because people here (like you) seem to think that they can speak for minority groups that they don’t actually know that well.
