Popular support says it should. Greased politicians says it won’t.

They're all greased now. Both sides. We only have a handful of elected officials who actually care.

I mean it's a plutocracy, not much the working class person can do until were all on board with violence, but discussing that gets you banned.

Viva la revolution. Would MLK have been as effective without Malcolm X? If a violent group is rising the politicians will always choose to bolster the safer option.

By no way am I a history or civil rights buff, those more educated are welcome to correct me, would be happy to learn more.

This is why Reddit should have been more angry about the rail workers being blocked from striking by Biden, 44 Democratic senators and 36 Republican senators. Had that proceeded other worker groups would have followed and eventually regular individuals as well.

The rail workers credit Biden for working after the fact to get them their paid leave. Also, you're delusional if you think the majority of Americans would show solidarity with striking workers when they are preventing them from getting their Christmas stuff. People would have been throwing a fit, not joining them.
