I’m envious of the way the French protest their government. They’re literally setting things on fire because their schools aren’t adequate. Because the government tried to raise the retirement age. Because their politicians are shitbags.

I think the biggest obstacle to organizing in the US is the sheer distance. It takes 40 solid hours of driving to get from one side to the other. That’s not counting any breaks. France takes about 14 hours. Doable in a day or so if you push it.

Anyway, I’d sign up for a Revolution if there was a serious contender.

    I’ve discussed things with you before and know that you’re a diehard party loyalist, so there’s little point in trying to reason with you. As I recall, you explicitly told me you consider American lives more valuable than the lives of non-Americans, so I don’t respect your opinion whatsoever. Your assessment of the party is based on fascist values and beliefs that are completely incompatible with my own.

    At the end of the day, as someone who believes in the principle that all people are created equal, I’ll never vote for a party that supports mass murder, even if it’s targeted at “lesser” foreigners. And you and your party can make the choice of whether that’s an unreasonable condition to being part of their coalition. If you don’t need people who believe in equality, then don’t whine about how we vote. If you do need us, give us our demands and stop supporting mass murder. Doesn’t make a lick of difference to me if you think I’m being “unreasonable” or “wasting my vote” or whatever else. And I’m not going to stop voicing my opinion or advocating against genocide, no matter what you say.
