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.
“No they are not.”
are you sure? it sounds like you’re going to agree with me in your next sentence.
“The primary movers of political policy are money or violence.”
organized protests like labor strikes (those influence “money”) change policies.
Glad you agree, I figured you’d get the eventually.
2 people and a horse chanting in front of some government building doesn’t change shit. That’s what the 50501 protests are.
Boycotts and strikes would be effective, those are not happening on a large enough scale.
“2 people and a horse chanting in front of some government building doesn’t change shit.”
phew, good thing that isn’t what’s happening.
it sounds like you’re completely ignorant of the protests?
“That’s what the 50501 protests are.”
ah, you are completely ignorant with these protests.
4,000 people gathered in front of Denver’s capital alone.
you are embarrassingly uninformed.
“Boycotts and strikes would be effective, those are not happening on a large enough scale.”
again, you are embarrassingly uninformed.
Why are you even making things up that are so obviously wrong?
like, just type any of those words into a search engine and you can see how wrong you are.
I promise that learning is not as scary as you think it is.
You make it seem like that’s a low or average number of protesters in each state, but it seems there are 100 to 200 protestors in most states and not many people even calling for boycotts to Google, Apple, or other companies which showed their full support to Trump’s dumb ideas, gave him launch money, and sucked him off.
Tesla and X have been getting a little more hate than usual, but not enough hate for it to actually matter for a president.
“You make it seem like that’s a low or average number of protesters in each state”
incorrect, but I understand your trouble:
me saying there were 4,000 The protesters in Denver means that in the city of Denver, there were 4,000 protesters.
that is a number. your inference is your own.
as for your 100 to 200 claim, it’s simply inaccurate and not supported by the website you provided.
those are the absolute lowest numbers in a couple of states, but not at all the mean or average.
go read the page you googled.
according to your source, 5051 has already organized close to 30,000 people Nationwide for a single protest on a single day, after barely a month of a shitty administration.
and you’re ignoring all of the other protests simultaneously happening.
but thanks for proving me right!
I know that everything is scary and your country sucks right now, but people are trying to help you by organizing political action in the most effective historical democratic way, and you should be appreciative and supportive, or at least informed of what is going and how political change happens in your own country.
Population of Denver: 715,522 (2020 census).
4,000 is 0.56% of 715,522.
in that one location, on that one day, of that single protest, you’re very close to getting one of these numbers correct.
congrats!!
