Are you ready for another Bush v. Gore? The Supreme Court is. - Lemmy.World

We need to be ready to march in the streets if SCOTUS tries to pull some fuckery. They’re not even supposed to be in the loop on elections. That’s the newly elected Congress’ job.
Hate to break it to ya, but marching in the streets won’t solve this. More drastic measures would have to take place, and frankly I don’t see that happening.
On the contrary a massive number of people on the streets is the only way we’ve seen effective change in the past couple decades. Violence has led to protracted conflicts with a low rate of success.
Ah yes, I also remember when the Iraq War protests stopped the invasion. And when Occupy reigned in greed on Wall Street. And in 2016 when Trump was defeated. And in 2020 when we finally ended systemic racism and police brutality.

Those weren’t enough people and you can’t protest an idea the way occupy protested greed. It just didn’t work. When you look at the pictures of places that have done this they have completely filled the streets, to the point there is no controlling the crowd.

Filling a park or a “free speech zone” isn’t going to do it.
