I'd like to thank everyone for my most upvoted post on lemmy ever. Not only have you upvoted it to the top for like 2 days you commented the shit out of it. I'd like to take this opportunity to say fuck the mods of this instance. This was my second post coming off a 30 day ban and I want to say these fucking mods have been nothing but bitches. I've never been more attacked on any other instance, subreddit, forum, etc. then I have been in this fucking instance. Not only have I been attacked I've been told my memes arent memey enough again and again.
I'll be honest, I do not know how to make a meme but I keep posting just to piss in these mods cheerios.
Thanks lemmy.world/politicalmemes for being the worst community I've ever been a part of.
Look here Europe. I don't know how well y'all understand the states, but it's unfathomably large. People in the big cities can definitely organize and revolt. But, against who?
The power is concentrated in Washington DC. It's in an extremely inconvenient location to get to, and I'm starting to understand why.
The last person who was able to amass a large enough following to organize people and march all the damn way to Washington DC was assassinated by the FBI - more specifically J. Edgar Hoover, one of the OG Incel MAGATs. The last president that was able to advocate for the same rights was assassinated by the same group.
Malcom X could see that the only way the US government would change was through speaking the language it knew, but he, too, was taken out by the FBI.
The billionaires in power speak the same language. They wear children as meat shields. They spark violent rhetoric. They won't hesitate to take out a figurehead before he becomes too powerful like King, JFK, and Malcom X.
Meanwhile, trump's army of inbred rednecks, drunk karens and incels managed to storm the capital, and get away with it, while being livestreamed TO THE WORLD. The more i see messages like this the more i feel disappointed with americans. Too fat and diabetic to break into a sweat I see.
Trump started claiming the election was fraudulent on November 4th. He spent a month and a half riling up his base, telling them the election was stolen. Eventually on December 19th he set a date for his rally on Jan 6th, setting a firm date and giving his supporters 18 days to prepare.
The US is big, and getting to DC is expensive and difficult, and it takes a long lead time to make something like that happen. It's now just one month since Trump took power, and although his chaos started immediately, it took weeks for it to build up to something that people might be willing to travel to DC to protest.
These things take time.
