    Yeah, that’s the thing about a protest, it doesn’t help unless you have a structure to harness this energy. When police started shooting at protesters in Ukraine in 2014, several political and activist organisations banded together with people, and together they used this fear and anger to resist and ultimately win.

      Well political activist organizations were already banded together going to No Kings protests when those citizens were shot, for some reason we’re not winning yet

        I am very plugged in on the American politics, and yet I have no idea which ones you can mean. This means that either those organisations are small enough so they don’t even break the local social media barrier, or they were so quiet after that, they didn’t even try to do anything on any public level.
        Two people were executed on the streets by the regime, and the reaction was less severe than when a shitty musician was shitty.
