I’m completely aware that the best thing is organised resistance. But where the fuck is it? America as a whole has done sweet fuck all for the past few years and are just letting their rights be eroded. If people aren’t going to actually organise, at the very least, you should be doing that little something that will actually lower suffering. Trump winning the election unquestionably increased suffering, more than any alternative would of.
Then fucking present a realistic and actionable third chois? Why is this so difficult? This has been an issue for years, but where are the realistic third options?
You haven’t present one because you can’t. All of your “solutions” or “better options” are either unrealistic on not actionable.
If I were in a situation where I had to pick between being stabbed in the lung or the heart and there are no realistic alternatives that are likely to increase my odds of survival, I’d choose my lung and hope I can get medical attention in time. You’ve basically given a variation of the trolley problem here.
And you’re not achieving shit either.
There’s not a whole lot I can achieve here from Australia. But have you actually done anything that will contribute to change? I somehow doubt it.
You say that “I will not lift a finger to defy genocide until you provide me with detailed plans for insurrection”.
But the fact that you have no plans for insurrection is telling. If you can’t come up with a realistic and actionable plan that a large enough people will go for, how can you expect people to start a resistance? People don’t like uncertainty, that’s just basic human psychology.
If I were American, and people had a realistic and actionable plan I’d like to think I’d be all for it. But after all this time of all the bullshit from the US government and there still not being actual realistic talk of insurrection, might just mean that it’s a little unrealistic.
The choice is more genocide or slightly less genocide. Put forth a reasonable and actionable third option that is better and I’d be all for it. But with the way the US government works, that’s unrealistic. Unless you actually have a realistic and actionable way to change it, that a large enough group will actually go for you have no choice but to work within the shirty system that the government has.
And how many evil people in power have you killed? Have you taken up arms against your government? Have you attempted to begin organising an uprising?
If it’s the lesser of two evils, be the change you want to see in the world.
But you will never do that for the same reason there hasn’t been a big mass uprising. It’s fucking scary.
So you’ll choose the greater of two evils then? You’d knowingly inflict more suffering on more people so you can maintain some sense of moral superiority?
Or are you a plant, here to intentionally discourage people from choosing the lesser of two evils and lesson overall suffering?
Because, let’s be honest, there not a whole lot USians can actually do in the face of their government. Actually standing up to, and fighting the government which would be the actually best thing, is absolutely terrifying to the average person.
I would if there was something I could actually do that would actually make a difference. But again, no one with your view will provide an actual realistic actionable plan.
