What are we to do? Vote? I have been but that doesn’t seem to do much since I’m just voting for a representative that makes the actual decisions.

      Literally nothing has ever been won from kings and oligarchs by asking nicely you naive child.

        Just gonna add onto here:

        DO NOT FEED THE ANTI-DISESTABLISMENT TROLLS

        THEY’RE EXPLOITING NON-VIOLENCE TO STOP YOU RISING UP TO PROTECT THEIR MASTERS

        DO NOT LISTEN TO THEM OR ENGAGE WITH THEM AT ALL. NOT A FUCKING WORD. DOWNVOTE THEM AND MOVE ON

        Don’t sling insults. By doing so it demonstrates that you have no argument worth making.
