Why can't we get our act together? How did the BLM protests get organized, and why can't we do that again? What happened to the people that organized the BLM protests?
We are facing a far greater disaster. What's stopping us?
@isaackuo the blm organizers are either dead, in prison, completely demoralized, disabled, or smart enough to know that mass protests only work if your goverment has any morals or outside pressure from another country and are doing other things with their time that support their communties.
and antifa groups are still shutting down facist rallies everywhere as they have been. Its just not reported on.
usa has an apathy problem but those that have done are still doing
@budsofstone Really? It was only four years ago, and BLM took place BECAUSE the Trump government had no morals.
@isaackuo biden was president and people had a hope that obamas vice president might have some willingness to move towards less oppression, he wasnt. He doubled down on authorianism. Blm was about centuries of racism and black people being shot daily by police, which didnt start with trump and wont end with him.
Now i wasnt an organizer of any of the blm protests. Im just a long time antifa, anti-authorian organizer and was apart of one of the large protests.
@isaackuo alot more people were hurt or died in those protests than i think people realize. And there is the death/disablity toll of covid.
People were further radicalized, if you want to really change things you have to have the resources of a large community behind you, money, food, medicine, shelter, communication. Thats what alot of people are doing right now.
