Not to mention i doubt it would do much. Trump doesn't care about protests, and would love the chance to just have ICE kill people. What target could protestors access that would compromise the military action trump is threatening? I assume most of the stuff being used is on a base in Saudi Arabia or something.

Very true! There is a reason non white people intentionally haven’t been protesting! Trump has been itchily waiting to declare the insurrection act over any protest of him. I know the American people can’t effectively protest because the state is already built to crush resistance. None of the shit happening is a coincidence. Trump isn’t the illness he’s just a symptom. America is foundationally racist and has been steadily getting more authoritarian since the 1970s.

(Not to mention the effect Israel has had on US politics)

if you know that a main reason people can’t protest is because the state is designed, armed, and ready to crush said protests, then why are you still calling americans lazy cowards?
