I’ll go
- I’m not alone.
- Trump:
Declares martial law
Or
Has defied court orders
Or
Has committed violence against government officials
Or
Dissolved all other branches of government
There is probably more but these are ones that come to mind.
Edit:
Deleted my responses. I asked for honest opinions. I’m not here to call balls and strikes.
I’ve already taken to the street in protest, starting eight years ago. Anyone who hasnt yet either isn’t going to or is just now coming of age.
Same. I was there for the Women’s march, there for BLM, after George Floyd, and most recently for the 50501 (which was surprisingly well attended despite it’s quick set-up). Let me know if there’s another one, and I’ll be there too. All it takes for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing.
Your *third “or” happened already.
(The violence one)
Talking Jan 6th?
I volunteer to be a part of the barrier troops for the 1%ers, politicians, CEOs, landlords, and employers. These people should all drafted for front line combat. It’s their nation after all. Not mine, which is painfully obvious as I am forced to be exploited by all of these people for the privilege of living in their country.
I just want them to be good patriots and for them to die for their country. No retreat! No surrender. Not a single step backwards while I’m on watch. Or else…
I’ve heard each CEO is worth 500+ times the amount of working class people. Shouldnt need to many of those super soldiers to win every battle right?
Chronic pain and non-typical sensory needs will pretty much forever keep me from marching or protesting. That and the number of times I’ve been “disrupted” or “inconvenienced” because “that’s the point of protest and if you don’t get that then you’re clearly part of the problem”, only to have nothing change in the long run after said protest, I’m not willing to put my limited physical and mental resources on the line for “maybes” and “hopefullys”.
Other people actually giving a damn enough to do something other than post about it. I protested in the past and absolutely nobody gave a shit and it had zero effect. I don’t even think the protest was covered on the news.
I suspect that for any average American (or even a single digit percentage of them) to bother getting involved things are going to have to get extremely bad.
If Trump starts invading my country, I’ll happily not only take to the streets, but I’ll sign up for military training and defend it.
Some Americans in this thread seems to think this will all blow past while they sit comfortably in their homes.
It won’t. Your passivity is exactly what the Republicans depend on. Posting online won’t save you. You need to take your actions out in the real world.
There’s not one correct course of action, but don’t get fooled into inaction. Whether you’re a peaceful protester, run for local office, or do a Luigi I won’t get myself involved with. Just don’t mistake online activity for activism. And don’t think you’re powerless, that’s how they win.
I need to get:
An M40 gas mask and spectacle insert
A bullet-resistant helmet
A burner phone
That’s about it, really.
Probably: getting laid off due to collapsing economy.
I’m not American, so probably not until he escalates his messing with other countries to the bombs and guns stage.
It will take the protests being armed.
Because if the protests aren’t armed, they’re not going to accomplish anything. There will be no change if the wealthy class isn’t made to live in fear of the public.
Calm yourself Mario, Luigi tried & failed
Implying he’s in the hole and will never see the light of day again when his trial hasn’t even started
tried and failed
He literally shot the guy three times in the head lol
Maybe he means failed to enact meaningful change? I don’t much had changed internally for insurance companies other than getting a legal basis to stamp out any vocal dissent as a “threat”.
Don’t count him out yet. Change is slow. I know we’re used to hearing about revolutions in the aftermath, with the whole complete story. We’re living one now, and it’ll go slowly at first.
Change will come much quicker when protest groups ditch peaceful protest and show up armed, en masse, with AR-15’s.
Guaranteed.
For this he is scum.
The guy that killed the blood sucking parasite who got richer denying critical care to insured patients after they’d paid his company tens of thousands of dollars?
Sounds like a hero to me.
No he’s trash.
Strike power is real power
True, but in America, you’re far more likely to get an armed protest than a general strike.

Elect Luigi as President
My wife would need to pass or literally lose the ability to keep a roof over our heads. Its pretty much leave the country or death for us in many of your scenarios.
literally anyone asks me to set up my grill at the protest. I’m down.
He invades Canada.
Sorry yall but I left America so I’m hoping you can sort out your own shit.
A viable protest of decent size in my city that I can join. Even a few hundred people would be enough. Organized enough that I hear about it a week out and can shift my plans to be there.
