Dr. Abolish the Police: Fight how? — Subium • Bluesky web client

there's nothing wrong with having feelings of despair and futility, but i think it's most responsible to avoid airing all that out in public to the greatest extent possible right now. we need to cultivate a vengeance-driven, enraged espirit de corps right now, because we need people to fight

Fight how?

Organize mass protests demanding immediate dissolution and reformation of the court? That's all I got.

BLM worked out so well

Hey, I was hoping we could get more calls to in-action like this so if you can keep spitbalIing ideas to make people feel hopeless and shoot down any ideas for how to improve the world, that would be great.

It did. Those Minneapolis cops are in jail now.

Yeah, but it's a matter of when, not if when the next Floydening happens.

That's true. Unfortunately human nature never changes.

Oh, this is a lesson that some people are not helpful at all and really need to be ignored for the betterment of the movement

What's your idea?

I don't know, I was hoping someone like you would have a better idea.

Someone like me? Why would I? I'm not that imaginative. I'd probably hurt people.

"demanding" or else what? they'll just call in the riot cops like always

what do you see making changes historically?

The big one is to keep Trump out of office. After that is a little things- local elections, participating in city council meetings, being a visible, vocal pain in the ass opposition to the freaks in the GOP. We're fighting a hydra. There's no one easy trick, alas, and it will not be fixed in one day

Get out and phone bank, go door to door, start an email campaign, and work to get out the vote. We won't win this by complaining; we must get people to vote instead of staying home.
