Oh. Yeah. Someone should probably tell them that Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump don't care about civilian casualties. In fact, they might even be more likely to attack those targets, knowing civilians will be there.

    The US isn't the only audience for this defiant display.

    But the pedo is the one who will bomb them, and its clear he doesn't give a fuck.

    These people have balls. I wouldn't be there. I think it'll give him more reason to bomb them. Fuck this sucks.

    US citizens need to show this kind of boldness come the May 1st general strike by continuing it for more than one day.

    Also, what moron specifies an end date to a strike? That's defeating the entire purpose of striking.

    Step one is to get organized. Some morons know this.

    Given the previous demonstrations, albeit too far and few in between, the numbers participating have increased each time.

    I personally am cynical with the current show so far, but I remain hopeful that critical mass will be achieved. Agent Orangutan must be stopped.

    you mean the 3 day weekend everyone is planning on taking? really hard to get enthusiastic about this when most engagement is lazy, but like i get why they are trying to make it as easy as possible to claim people are striking.

    Remind me of the consequences when they killed 160+ schoolgirls on the first day of their attack?

    Among other things: the global perception of the US sunk to unprecedented lows, below even China. The US's most steadfast allies have all rejected requests for support. This is a different world now and it's uncertain whether the US can regain its prior standing.

    If this happens we all need to be off our asses and in the streets. No memes, no shitposting, on the fucking streets. It’s already been way too long and far for this administration to continually hold the world hostage.

    Sure but there's so many far easier things. Buy spray paint and go out at night and write some thoughts on the walls. Do easy things that are a little bit out of your comfort zone.

    There's no way the US is going into france protest mode over a president, it has been proven. Trump could kill half the country and the other half would go to work.

    They are going to need those if they want a country after regime change. The people showing up to defend what is their’s is a good sign.

    If they think that will stop bombs, they're very much mistaken.

    Although I suspect the Iranian regime know that all too well, and that this will solidify people against the invaders. It's hard to side with people who've just turned your family into mince.

    This is pretty much the only strategy they have. Although their country is one third as populous as the United States, their defense department has less funding than Arkansa's public education system. Outrage from the America public is their only defense against US military superiority.

    It's a good strategy. I'd be upset if my tax dollars blew up thousands of civilians making a human chain around a powerplant.

    Most likely, this won't even come close to stopping the psychopath Trump.

    For a bunch of far right fasicsts, it's truly remarkable how the MAGA idiots and the Likud+ maniacs underestimate ...nationalism.

    They should probably not do that. Trump doesn't give a fuck. They're just increasing their death chances.

    no but it helps the regime, by martyring them, and turning the public from other countries against israel and trump MORE. in the DS9 show, the CHangeling female, dominion proposed a plan to use meatshields, by placing cardassian citizens in around military compounds, power stations,,,etc. in order to turn the public against the rebels.
