Maybe go vote and swing by and firebomb a Wal-Mart after. As a little treat.

1 day for voting. 364 for revolution. Please, those of us trying to survive in this fucked-up system are asking one day of time.

Why destroy a Walmart and possibly hurt normal people??

I never understand why it took so many years for "crazy" people to go after cops (Dorner), Rich people and politicians. They go after poor innocent people instead.

Obviously you don't fire-bomb a Walmart while people are in there.

It's much more of a symbolic gesture, I guess, to burn down a symbol of imperial capitalism.

Still, doesn't make any difference whatsoever, so it's pretty stupid.
But I guess that's the idea.

Not to hurt people, while they are in there.

I do get fighting capitalism, but burning down single, local instances of a large cooperation won't do shit...

We need to burn them down coordinated at the same day and all at once ;⁠-⁠)

Walmarts close where you live? But yeah I understand the idea just...

"Why do the Americans not just do revolution? Are they stupid?" - Americans

I'm tickled every time I get into an argument with one of them. Alright bud, you go organize the revolution and let me know how it goes. I'll be over here voting and telling idiots kind you do vote too.

[–] Leg@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 days ago

Kind you do you too, bub.

[–] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 3 points 6 days ago

I know I am.

I doubt most of the accounts saying that are actual living, breathing Americans.
