I’m there with you, but I’ll addendum. So many people couldn’t be faffed to show up to vote. I keep seeing so much about “rising up” and staging a revolution. If they can’t be bothered to show up to circle in a bubble on a piece of paper, I’m not going to expect them to do fuck all when shit actually hits the fan.
If you hear David Graeber talk about it, the IMF and the World Bank’s power was shattered after occupy, countries weren’t willing to accept their terms anymore because the word was out that leaders who did that were selling out their own people. Things changed, but there are powerful hegemonic forces at work to stop us from hearing about it. They want us to believe we are powerless.
Just because you didn’t storm the bastille yet doesn’t mean nothing is being done. Most direct action is on the ground and invisible. That’s why it looks like decades pass with nothing happening, then overnight everything changes.
