    Another example that demonstrates that change doesn’t come from corporately controlled governments

    Change comes from the collective voice of the people who march in the streets

    Great changes don’t happen because we politely ask the ruling government to do as they are asked by the people … great change comes from the combined voices of thousands and millions of people shouting in the streets until they are heard and listened to.

    Today half of these people would have been convinced by dudes on social media that real men don’t support this cause. Or Joe Rogan would’ve convinced them that it’s a communist plot. Or Alex Jones would’ve had them thinking it’s a globalist conspiracy to try and get us to eat bugs. They’re all just different feathers on the conservative propaganda wing. These people are a direct threat to our society’s progress.

      Reagan and Thatcher were calling Mandela a terrorist after he had been released from prison. The western world was very much okay with apartheid then, much like they’re okay with Israel doing a genocide today: because they can and will “do business” with fascists. Attitudes only shifted because it became economically unpalatable to “do business” with South Africa, largely because of boycotts.

      Want to stop Israel? Make it cost the rich more to support them. Boycott, divest, sanction.
