Seeing the protests against #Musk's takeover of various government agencies, from #USAID to #DeptOfTreasury, is encouraging. Seeing the #50501Movement protests is also encouraging. Hearing a few #DemocraticParty senators commit to slowing and even halting the legislature until this #DOGE #coup is stopped is a step in the right direction.
But I'm still seeing a lot of people asking why more people in the US aren't rising up en masse. Why aren't people flooding the streets and shutting down cities? Why did it take this long for even the trickle of a movement to coalesce?
I have thoughts on this, based on my previous experience with #activism that I'd like to share, with the goal of suggesting how people in the US can build movements that are more sustainable and that care for each other rather than repeating the disposability mindset of #capitalism.
