        Sort of. We all have failed to act over decades (provided we knew and were able to protest).

        But thats also how struggle works. We now know and we have the means to act (our voices and feet and hands - assumed).

        Everybody who failed to act in the past can act now and absolve themselves of the burden. Telling others its too late is another tool of the elite to keep us still while we’re being raped.

        Tell everyone you know about it, help others who lead the resistance in your area or online. Fascism has shown its ugly face in hypercapitalists and we now have a common enemy. We can learn from the successful resistance actions of the past.

        Organize, organize, organize!

            Not sure I agree. „Deserve“ would be the word to use to make you take blame for something you arent responsible for.

            For example: the „normal“ person is not able to understand very complex things and statistically does not work a cognitively demanding job.

            Manipulating these people through algorithms isnt exactly rocket science. I‘m not sure it is okay to blame them for it.

            What I would blame them for is not acting now. So no, I dont think „deserve“ is a good word to use. Lets do away with blaming each other and start working on a solution.
