Seems to me every single time Americans significantly changed their laws, they had to break laws, often pick up firearms, then boycott, illegally enforce their strike’s picket lines, riot and revolt. Perhaps you shouldn’t be speaking of the combined weight of ignorance of society. Maybe your time would be better spent reading a history book rather than attempting to teach nonsense like voting will change their material conditions.

Maybe you should take the time to engage your own critical thinking, and realise not everyone is American.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I scoped correctly. And, you’re Australian, meaning your government follows where ours leads. It leads where it wants regardless of what you or I vote for. Bad faith fuck.

Jesus, talk about failing to get the point.

I’m not talking about my government or yours. I’m talking about society making a change for the better. That requires change at a generational level. Bigger guns aren’t the answer - changing people’s thinking is.

But, by all means, feel free to keep playing the Team America card. That’s what landed that orange-skinned moron in the White House for his first term.
