LainTrainSo many are living in total wilful ignorance of politics that I don’t think anything is going to happen, most people barely even look at the news, they just check twitter feeds for their product fandoms so they know when to consume product and when to get excited for the next product.
I’ve decided the best and most feasible thing I can do right now is thoroughly decoupling myself from the corporate consumerism world, I haven’t had Netflix (boycotted over Chapelle initially then just stuck with it) in many years now and I just got around to cancelling Prime too, I’ve deleted all food delivery apps and I pirate all my media and use ublock/sponsor block everywhere, the only thing left to cancel is Spotify, I only ever buy used gadgets like old laptops that’d probably end up in a landfill, some of which I use to host Jellyfin etc.

I honestly think this is a very valid approach. Most people are imagining revolutions and a sudden and violent end to the capitalist class, but I’m more inclined towards the idea where people just change their life habbits so that they don’t depend on massive corporations. Step one stop using crap you don’t need, step two try to get the things you do need locally. If enough people do this, you might start seeing small communities that take care of a lot of stuff by themselves, and the moment you get a big enough community where at least some can live comfortably with little to no dependency from big corporations, things might change…
