          how can you be a "leftist" and not be involved with or even follow any actual leftist orgs, all of which have been doing lots of anti-war organizing around this in the past year

          an Iraq War level protest,

          one that actually has a potential to make an impact nationwide.

          yeah those iraq war protests sure did a lot

              what's the point of rallies if they don't further our goals? you might as well do electoralism.

                Lenin famously never did a rally or anything anti-war. What liberalism to do that!

                  lenin doing something doesn't mean it's the best use of our efforts 100+ years later when the capitalists have had the same amount of time in power to develop strategies to invalidate our efforts.

                  Iraq war protests didn't do shit, and there were americans being sent to die there. Why the fucking hell do you or anyone else think the same performance would accomplish anything this time when it's not even "our boys"?

                  please i beg you to explain in discrete steps the cause and effect of what this action is meant to accomplish,

                    Lot of words from a cushy American to justify why you don’t need to oppose the American war machine in every way

                      explain the mechanism of action. my contention is that performances like that aren't actually opposition, because they don't accomplish anything.
