If it’s an illegal act, then let’s arrest some of the people who did it.

A lot of the time major publications won’t print something like this unless it can be verified. They are probably trying to get confirmation it is real.
Only spending cuts that cost more in the long run, like cuts to IRS personnel, cuts to environmental protection, and cuts to infrastructure maintenance.
That’s the rough part of where we are now. Capital isn’t on our side. If the economy tanks hard, maybe that will change.
That movement really started in 2014 with the killing of Michael Brown, but your point stands. Still, I can’t call that too much of a victory since the point of the protests was to stop violent racially biased policing, and all we got were cameras. Better than nothing I suppose.
I see what you are saying, but the issue of having billionaires funding and supporting the movement is something most protest movements can’t count on.
Historically if peaceful protests are ignored long enough, the protests cease to be peaceful. That almost always backfires against the protestors because it’s so easy for the media to turn public opinion against them. The average citizen isn’t willing to sacrifice their peace and security unless there is an immediate tangible benefit to them.
We need a new tactic. Something the powers that be don’t have an answer for already. I’m from Chicago and during the pandemic there was a phenomenon called flash mobs that the police struggled to address. Large groups of people would arrange online a time and location, commit crime, and flee before authorities could react. Sometimes they would show up, beat up and rob whoever was on the street, and disappear onto public transportation. Other times they would hit high value corporate targets like the Gucci or Prada stores. Dozens of people would rush in, seal everything not nailed down, and escape.
I have to wonder hypothetically what would happen if this tactic was applied to banks. The money is insured by the government, so the public wouldn’t be losing anything. But the public HATES the banks and wouldn’t offer them sympathy. It would be even better if some of the stolen money was redistributed to the needy. Just wishful thinking on my part.
AstroTurf project funded by the Koch brothers and other wealthy conservative groups. Not a real protest
If the news covers it, sure. But they aren’t covering the protests that are happening.
Has any protest made a damn bit of difference in the US for the last 20 years? 30? 40?
Time for some malicious compliance. Print the lists in yellow ink on slightly crumpled 11x14 pieces of paper. If possible, randomly switch font and text size between names. Oh, and don’t alphabetize or arrange anything in any way.
They have been doing this for years. They add a little bump and sell it as a belt buckle, or add a little notch and sell it as a bottle opener. Most insane is it is fine to put a knife blade on it and sell it as a knife.
It was always shit. Now we just have technology that lets us see all of it.
There was always a genocide going on somewhere in the world. Cops always brutalized and killed people. The wealthy always exploited the poor. New diseases are always popping up and spreading. Politicians were always corrupt.
The internet tells us about all of it. We no longer have the bliss of ignorance.
You can definitely find this dynamic in anime, although a lot of the romance stories are about couples getting together rather than an established relationship. “Horimya” and “My Dress Up Darling” are both series which are recent and very popular. They might be close to what you want. Some less popular titles that are more precisely what you described are “An Archedemon’s Dilemma: How to Love Your Elf Bride” and “Shikimori’s Not Just A Cutie”.
On the optimistic side, I think it’s likely a gene treatment is developed that greatly extends the lives of dogs.
My love for unions eclipses my hatred for the TSA on this one.
Ultimately the police and military lean heavily Republican, especially at the leadership level. That means they can push things farther than the Dems.
This might be one of the few cases where the Supreme Court might rule against Trump because it means they keep their power.
Illegal = punishable
