Raise the retirement age in France and they shut the country down, they were building walls across highways!! Americans are fucking wimps taking it in the ass by the rich and then whining “Well what can we do?” We the sheeple…
Sorta. I don’t think there’s any shaking going on, at least not until we see a second one. Then, maybe we’ll be starting something.
There is a reason that peaceful protests are legal. They accomplish nothing, but they help identify troublemakers.
Not to worry… it’s all back to normal now.
The ruling class states it will continue as usual.
The status quo has been maintained – the peasants lost again.
“Violence isn’t the answer” is just what you say when other options are still effective.
brb, investing in private security companies
The ruling class isn’t shaking. The CEO’s replacement has said that it will be business as usual at UHC. Nothing will change except for the shooters life. He’ll spend a significant portion of his life in prison, if he’s not Epsteined.
All I’m saying is if the rich start having to lobby for gun control to protect themselves it’ll be astonishing the speed with which things get done that are literally thought of as impossible now.
Not even close.
The reason we haven’t had progress on Healthcare is because you find every excuse you can to not elect a supermajority of democrats so Healthcare reform can be passed.
Perfect is the enemy of good.
Yeah, but how much of our population is actually organizing? How many are actually getting getting involved in the process of promoting candidates and getting involved during the primary process and before? How many of these very angry people are actually putting in the work of promoting their ideas to society at large rather than griping about the choices they are given every few years?
Judging by voter turnout during primaries, I’d say many are not doing the things that could make a real difference for those suffering in our society.
>According to an analysis released by the National Vote at Home Institute this week, of an estimated 149 million registered voters eligible to vote in 32 state primary contests held through April 24, 2024, only ~34 million cast a ballot; an aggregate turnout of approximately 23% if using active registered voters and a no-show rate of nearly 5-in-6 potential voters using all eligible citizens.

The ruling class of the 1% have become so plump and engorged that they feel untouchable. A little seasoning of lead may change that.
Legit the most justice I’ve seen meted out to a corporation in my lifetime.
Probably because it held someone responsible and not fined some amorphous non existent mass that doesn’t care or notice the “fine”.
This is not true – the shooter is a reflection of the American public’s hatred for the sick care system in the us. But at the same time, there will just be another corporate stooge CEO engaging in the same tactics. If there are more killings, that will only be used to bolster the surveillance state and corporate leaders will just hide their faces from now on.
The only thing that will change the system is systemic rebellion from the public – protesting in the streets as well as people running for office and/or for voting for candidates who are champions of universal healthcare + the working class. Violence will not solve this problem – direct your energy to democratically deposing the politicians who are bribed by special interests. Nonviolent actions will always be a better long term solution to systemic rot
That font is dope
What got shook? Nothing has changed or will and Luigi will be thrown in some dark hole never to be heard from again.
“Just shook the ruling class”
Well, we have yet to see if the response from the ruling class while shook will be better or worse for us.
Just categorically untrue.
What organizing?
Yeah their so scared theyre gonna give us healthcare now
The American gun problem finding a solution to the American healthcare problem. Poetic.
UHC already replaced the dude. Nothing at all changed.
Not really
Just a FYI, the protests in France changed nothing and the age of retirement is still what it was raised to
Nothings going to change. Are people really thinking this will change anything?
There’s been a hugely concerted effort to outlaw/shame/etc. political violence. We seem to value “free speech”, but simply saying you wish a certain person was dead is often grounds for moderation on every platform. When Henry Kissinger died, how many Reddit comments were removed? And he wasn’t even murdered.
We can make jokes about dead babies. We can argue about abortion or religion or any other controversial subjects. But anything that might put violence and powerful people in the same thought is just too far.
Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable – JFK
Propaganda of the Deed
There’s a reason the FBI murdered Martin Luther King, Jr. instead of peacefully protesting him.
Some people don’t remember the 70s.
There were regular leftist bombings of corporate and government leaders. In one year there was more than one **every single day**.
As a consequence the American people decided to elect…Reagan. Which gave the left everything they wanted /s.
Alternatively, through decades of peaceful organizing Obama was elected and passed the ACA, the reason that many of you have healthcare coverage until 26, after the ACA healthcare costs rose more slowly than wages for the first time since Reagan’s election.
Occupy Wallstreet shook the ruling class so much they took over Reddit and made a joke out of it. This murder won’t change anything except to serve as an excuse to further curtail your rights. You people are like children.
