More and more, I'm realizing we need to ramp up civil disobedience to foster change. We are moving too slowly on #ClimateChange and protecting human rights across the world.We need to wrestle power away from BigOil and war profiteers and billionaires in general, all of whom are deeply entrenched in our political systems.We may not be able to vote them out, but we can vote for parties that won't take away our rights to civil disobedience, and that's not nothing. Vote accordingly.#Politics

@FantasticalEconomics Civil disobedience. Gives us an example of how you’d do that?Stand in the road?Glue yourself to the art in the museum?Read the money wrench gang where all the other college kids can see you?

@magicalthinking I'm hesitant to engage with your question as it seems awfully trolly in how you framed it, and I'm not really sure what you're getting at. If that is not you're intent, I apologize and invite you to clarify.- Are you disagreeing that civil disobedience is effective? - Do you take issue with how certain groups have been disobedient recently and feel it has hampered movements you support? - Are you asking for my personal insights into what actions may be most effective?

@FantasticalEconomics Ur whole movement is sponsored by big oil. The need for oil is nearly doubled thanks to the climate Marxism and the not so green energy that is utterly useless. But anyone dumb enough to be afraid of the climate and unable to see that it is a Marxist move, are unable to understand anything about energy. Because they are controlled by feelings rather than facts.U have the media, the banks, WEF, leftist to center politicians, big tech behind U and U think U are "rebels"👌

@magicalthinking @FantasticalEconomics Believe it or not, it works very well in France (to a point; could do better still😉) . Compare their social assets & healthcare to the US.

@magicalthinking @FantasticalEconomics (The ultimate example would be the French Revolution, which is where their tradition of civil disobedience began!🙂 )

@magicalthinking @FantasticalEconomics Remove private money from the equation. It's not even about "saving" democracy because the US is not a democracy. That is a façade. The US is a 100% Plutocracy. $$ decides policy for BOTH the major parties so "elections" are effectively irrelevant. Different colors of lipstick on the same pig.🤷 Campaign finance should be 100% Treasury financed & ALL lobbying should be documented/public AND balanced by equal (in number & budget) opposing representation.++

@Quantillion @FantasticalEconomics How about another CHOP - that utopian vision didn't last very long.https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2020/7/2/21310109/chop-chaz-cleared-violence-explained
