    America doesn’t need a revolution, a simple general strike will remind the capitalist bastards that they rely on us, not the other way around.

        I’m Australian. We have mandatory voting, which makes it almost impossible for a nutjob like Trump to take control here.

          But we do have little to no independent media, which does help Dutton and his cohorts (Trumpets of Patriots or some nonsense) convince people to put in donkey votes at best and vote for them at worst. All they need is a majority in parliament to push the crazy.

        Americans haven’t given up their consumerism, so a general strike is out of the question.

        They need money for subscribing to digital entertainment they can be getting for free and to order food with delivery apps at 100% markup.

        This generation sucks.
