New generations and all, but this sort of thing has happened dozens of times and caused no change. It turns out that our overlords indeed do not care about us.
That’s just the thing with these protests (I’m not talking about this one). I mean the ones stopping traffic and interrupting political events. Eventually, this atrocity in Gaza will come to an end and all the protesters who didn’t cause the end of anything will cheer and think they did so along comes the next atrocity and they will repeat the same nonsense until we have some idiot putting Gatorade on plants.
But protests can effect change. While no American protester will change Israel’s genocide, American protesters may be able to remove American support of Israel’s genocide of Palestinians. You might say that that wouldn’t save more than a handful of lives temporarily, but it would lessen the black mark on America’s soul. Not eliminate, but lessen.
No, you interupt the ones in power who try to ignore what’s going on or speak half truths in the aid of complete atrocities. You don’t shut up because shutting up is to let them have their way. I actually think the ostrichs putting their heads in the sand are the ones who will enjoy the electrolytes getting to their mouths when we get to that point not the people trying to avert disaster. You’re wayyy off base dude.
You say that but then people in France have 30 hour work weeks and months of paid vacation per year. Parental leave and free healthcare are also nice. How did they get this? By blocking roads, making the government shut down, and then demanding change. In the US, we only get people complaining about protestors.
Using the numbers from January. France has a population of 68.5 million. The US has 335 9. You can figure out why we are not France. If you can’t, I have no idea what to tell you.
Goddamn. Horrible as it is, I hope it’s not in vain.

You can tell me that you don’t understand that economies scale.
Your lateral leaps of logic are impressive
