your head is in the sand, you are literally advocating for giving up your civil rights

Nope

All you’re doing is crying about how nothing can change because you don’t know how to change it.

Nope

Quite literally the opposite. I know that protesting doesn’t work. How did that protesting help stop the genocide in Gaza? How did protesting help stop the over turning of Roe v Wade? Hell, both sides do it, so how effective were the years of pro life protests? No, the real way to change things is through actual political movement or violence. The pro life movement got what they wanted through decades of court packing, creating the federalist society, and years of planning. It would be a lot easier if what you wish was true, was actually true. However, the ruling class has convinced you that protesting is effective because they know it isn’t.

I know you’ll likely want the last word again, and you will again try to say I’m the one ignoring reality while you continue to wear your blinders and believe what you’re fed. However, this is my last response here. Good luck with your protesting, I wish it was that easy. At least you’ll feel like you did something so you can sit on your pretend high horse.

Yep, and keep believing those facts are the reason for change and don’t look any further into it. Believe the narrative you were told. That’s the very definition of being gaslit. Keep living that blissfully ignorant life, keep protesting, keep pretending you’re making a change, and things will just keep the same without change. When you’re ready to make a real change, let me know.

You keep believing that.

What?

Honestly, it doesn’t bother me that Canada won. More power to you. I just don’t like McDavid winning. At least he still doesn’t have a cup.

I wasn’t going to spend time getting into the nuance of each example and how protests didn’t actually cause the change that person thinks they did.

Whatever you want to tell yourself.

This is exactly what I mean. You are gaslit into thinking those were accomplished through protests and not violent riots.

which Is historically relevant in changing policy

When?

while you are whining that nobody should “get rowdy”.

That’s the exact opposite of what I’m saying.

you are hiding, you have been cowed into believing you can’t make a change.

Again, that’s the opposite of what I’m saying. We can make a change, but protests aren’t how it gets done.

He is the chainsaw guy. He campaigned using a chainsaw as a prop for slashing budgets.

You beat our injured team. Congrats.

That’s what you’ve been gaslit into thinking so that you don’t get rowdy.

I will still judge you.

He already said that’s what he wanted. He said it before voting even happened. There was no reason to doubt that’s what he wanted.
