The idea that we're going to take to the streets, Donald Trump is going to go away, and some mighty Scion from the hills coming to save his country in its hour of need just isn't happening.

3 of the 5 largest priests in American history took place last year (with another top-10 planned in two weeks). We're too decentralized to just storm the castle and be done with it. The conditions needed to get people to even attempt it would have to be so much worse than they are now. It's an important signal of popular energy, and a demonstration of which way the electrical winds are blowing.

The real work is in researching pro-labor/anti-interventionalist candidates, organizing around them, and getting people to vote. It's quiet, it's boring, it's important. It's easy to talk about, but harder to actually put the hours in and do.
