    If communists protested the same way liberals do we would still have child labor, 16hr work days, 7 day work weeks, the black community would still be sitting in the back of the bus, etc.

    These echo chamber parades will never accomplish anything other than keep the current systems of oppression firmly in place

      100% agree. Protests are supposed to make someone uncomfortable. I guarantee, the GOP doesn’t give 2 shits about a bunch of moms standing around with clever signs.

      Unions got into gun fights with the military to advance worker’s rights. Workers died. You’re not wrong at all.

      It’s naive to think the capital class is just going to willingly hand over the reins of power.
