I’m envious of the way the French protest their government. They’re literally setting things on fire because their schools aren’t adequate. Because the government tried to raise the retirement age. Because their politicians are shitbags.

I think the biggest obstacle to organizing in the US is the sheer distance. It takes 40 solid hours of driving to get from one side to the other. That’s not counting any breaks. France takes about 14 hours. Doable in a day or so if you push it.

Anyway, I’d sign up for a Revolution if there was a serious contender.

    Yes, I'm sure you would've preferred if my parents had succeeded in raising me to be a MAGA conservative like they are, because then I'd be a lot closer to you ideologically.

    Unfortunately for you, I read too much, thought critically, and took things like "created equal" to heart, so I became a leftist. So now you hate me, because I hold a mirror up to the scumbag fascist you really are.
