Sure, but usually, like here, it's limited to some social media and press moments. Liberal posturing doesn't stop fascists. I hope there's better organizing happening on the ground, but I'm not seeing much from where I am in Europe.
The major media is actively quieting and downplaying any resistance on the ground. It’s actually quite sad to see. But there is movement. I’m just with you, not sure the resistance that being made is the right kind.
Who said anything about "posturing?"
I did - all these types of 'backlash against Trump' that are being reported on are mostly hot air.
Organisation takes time to build momentum. Tese defeatist takes on how it does nothing are a core problem in USA's conditioning against protest, and every time someone says this, another person is discouraged from showing up.
I didn't say anything against organizing? I have something against petty bourgeois libs spouting bullshit in the media and not doing anything useful. I applaud people actually organizing, especially those in labor (unions)!
I replied to the wrong comment, my bad.
