I'm not happy though I'm not directly involved as I'm not American (though I am affected of course). But there's a limit to what you can expect here. The MAGA's are a cult, protesting won't touch their hard core and pushing them harder will cause escalation.
The only way these walls will come down is talking, not fighting. And they're burning up inside now with this Iran war that's deeply unpopular even with MAGA. Unfortunately they did manage their goal of making everyone forget the word Epstein though π
By protesting and being reasonable you chip away at their fringes, the people that are kinda on the fence. Anyway that's my take.
And like I said, strikes are a good idea too, anything non violent really.
incorrect. reasoning with a cult does not work. protesting will not effect their decisions in the slightest, and worrying about escalation has always been a moot point. they manufacture escalation at their pace. they do not need a reason. but forcing escalation itβs the point. the iranians have been more effective at changing the heart of magats by making life for magats directly harder. not a single protest has changed their mind. and so in order for this to stop, life has to start getting harder for everyone.
