      Never gonna change the world unless you want to actually change and not play along with the system

        What would you suggest people do, willingly become homeless just so they can say they “didn’t play along?” What are you doing.

        I understand wanting to break free of the system, that’s something I’m working towards myself, but you have to actually be realistic. If you want to make it to shore you still have to keep paddling to keep your head above water.

          What am I doing? I’m playing along. Once you guys want to stop playing and actually taking heads and making the street run red, I’m there! God I’m just waiting for it.

          But going on the street with a sign on a Saturday and blocking roads isn’t doing shit, if anything it’s making more people hate you and your cause.

          You guys want to actually do something? I’ll build the Gallows, come on, anytime you’re ready.

            If these protests aren’t doing shit then why is the police state coming down so hard on them recently?

              You haven’t been paying attention if you think police don’t come down on other protesters. You think only pro Palestine protesters get beaten, harassed, arrested and fucked over in America?
