      So don’t just roll over about it - get mad. Sorry if you aren’t in US, but I see the doomer takes all over. It’s like decent people have just given up.

        Here’s the deal, I think most have figured out that it’s going to take something massive to have any impact, either a full on general strike or coordinated direct action. Things are going to have to be dire, and yes I agree they are already, but the average American has been at worst inconvenienced. The tragedies that just occurred related to extreme weather may get the ball moving for some and the worse things get the likelier action becomes. I hate that I’m saying this but I hope things get that bad soon or I fear it may be too late. But protests are not going to do jack shit, the admin wants an excuse to declare martial law
