Thousands of children in Gaza have no been admitted to hospitals for malnutrition, but even as they waste away, doctors’ options for treating them have depleted.
I think doing all of those things is good but none of them really constitutes the people actually fighting back.
The first point focuses more on people in government using the amount of power they can to oppose this stuff which is good but isn’t really the people fighting back against this.
The massive amounts of protests aren’t going to do anything by themselves as Trump can continue to ignore them and keep blazing ahead as he’s already doing so. Especially considering the major force behind this, 50501, is having some pretty major internal problems right now the last time I looked that will probably splinter and hamper their ability to keep doing events.
In terms of violence I do generally support non-violent action, I just think it needs to be directed in ways that actually accomplish something rather then just allowing people to feel like they did something by going out to a protest for a couple hours. We need people to join organizations and actually start organizing and building community with people. That way people can begin to work towards creating whatever protections they can at the local level whether that be through local legislation or through organizing groups to protect people in the community directly from attacks. Protests can work towards this but we seriously need to hammer it into people that just showing up to a protest isn’t enough by itself and we need more protests that aren’t just nebulously targeted at Trump but have specific goals and demands.
