[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 443215, member: 35"] Rallies have happened thanks to organized protests going viral. We've seen that with the "No Kings" protests that took place across the country. Organizing isn't the problem. Unfortunately, it's only amounted to [I]performative[/I] activism so far. "No Kings" was a joke because it accomplished absolutely nothing. As the saying goes, "power concedes nothing without a demand." Perhaps young people are afraid to make demands because they were raked over the coals for doing so. After all, many were blamed for giving us Trump because of their "purity tests" (which is another way of saying they had integrity and principles.) If people want change, they have to challenge the billionaires and politicians. The establishment and its enablers will always say that it's "not the right time" because they want to preserve the status quo forever. [/QUOTE]
