What is the Shutdown 315 Movement?

A lot of losers in this thread think that literally anything mildly disruptive brings about change. That's not how it works. Change is from paperwork and ballots, not fire and empty shelves.

In order to get to "really disruptive" you start at "mildly disruptive". That's how movements work.

Name one time in history that actual meaningful change was not a direct result of violence in some way

So you are advocating for this protest to turn violent?
