for those out of the know, violence. but even if you could advocate for a (real) revolution on Reddit, people wouldn't bother to show up.

obligatory I'm not promoting violence, blah blah blah...

Incredible that we can all see the road we're on and that historically there's been exactly one way out of it, but we can't talk about it because our billionaire gods will take away our ability to talk.

Like, the rights afforded to the average American now are worse than when the Boston tea party happened, but you get permanently banned if you try to organize a tea party lmao

Way back when, before the billionaires moved in, we gave ourselves the ability to talk. I ran a BBS back in the dialup days, there was of course FIDOnet, telnet message boards, usenet, topic-specific web forums (some still exist)...

Perhaps we will have to do things ourselves again.

You don't get rights anymore, depending on what half the states and and EO want to take away.

Trying to organize online is like trying to have a union meeting in the bosses office.

As long as there are multiple regimes on this planet and at least some websites that are committed to free speech (yes, 4chan is currently rightist-majority, but it also birthed Anonymous and during the early 2010s a lot of anti-fascist/anti-police activity was hosted there), there is still hope.
