Tell that to the entire American working-class movement of the early 1900s that gave us our right to unionize. They had those same problems but it didn’t stop them. Why? Because they fucking organized their communities to provide that safety net for each other without relying on a third party entity to do it for them.
The problem with America these days is no one knows how or wants to be part of a community with each other. We are so fucking endeared to the capitalist system that people can’t fucking imagine doing anything without it.
A century of dedicated propaganda and class division will do that. And our police are better armed now, and the federal government is very openly on their side.
The federal government has always openly been on their side. That’s nothing new. The state has always been the enemy of the working class.
Them being armed isn’t an excuse to not take action. It just means we have to take precautions and adapt our tactics to deal with it. They aren’t invincible.
So it is true. Americans can’t protest like the French. You just interpreted it wrongly
Nationality isn’t the issue, location is. You can’t protest in America like you can in France.
