    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.

        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.

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

                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.

          The point isn’t what Trump thinks. Many people are not going to be there either. Some will be though.

    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.

      Organize committees in work places and represent as labor. Don’t wait for the union leaders who stifle the power of labor for their own gain any chance they get. The working class needs to take this into our own hands as a class…not as individuals.

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

    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 don’t show up they’ll be executed by the iranian regime. I can’t tell who is more evil in this war.

        You think they are willingly showing up? Iran kills protesters.

        Haha this place is no better than reddit. Iran loves killing its people just as much as the US loves killing their people. There’s no good guys in this fight.

            Those people are showing up because they are afraid of their own government. I know I’m right. A mom does not show up with her kids as a human shield willingly.

            If the iranian regime gave a single fuck about their people they would urge women and children to seek shelter.

      ERM citation that the civilians are being used as human shields against their will.

      Like not denying the executions, yeah that does happen. But it’s not the go to for every act of difiance, even just not showing up to a State Sponsored Rally
