    The main excuse is that collectively, we're like a bunch of cats all spread out

    And even if we did get together and tried to so stuff, the average Joe is just going to call the cops on us, or shoot at us or drive a truck into us

    I'm optimistic, but it's a measured optimism, knowing that it's a profoundly uphill battle

        I've been on a "political imagination" kick lately. We gotta start trying new shit on smaller scales, to demonstrate to the people watching that we (collectively, individually, locally, and nationally) are competent and trustworthy and can accomplish things. Then we can build up from there

      It's probably the only thing keeping many folks from adventure-time . You gain the political consciousness to want to properly lash out, but realize it's not always the most calculated and effective action.

        Yeah, violence is a tool just like any other

        It requires the wisdom to know not just how to use it, but when to use it too

      :yea: I know it's not as easy as just going around doming off fascists at random until there's no more of them, it's just it'd be nice if it was
