It's just a very literal direct example of American imperialism.
This is a rallying call. Get pissed off about it. Shout how Trump is a fascist, how he's ruining the country and taking everyones freedoms away. Shouting is how they've been winning the cultural political war. They own more media organizations and can be louder. If we say nothing, then the average person thinks what's happening is fine. You're not going to get people to riot if they aren't angry.
This is also a prime example of how Google cannot be trusted, and driving a wedge between the average person and Google is a very important and necessary thing for the anti fascist cause.
It’s a direct example of distracting people from the actual consequential actions.
It’s like yall forgot the first Trump presidency. People were protesting and getting angry early on. Then they burnt out.
They didn’t have energy to fight when important things happened.
Be angry. Sure. But be smart about what you’re angry about.
This is something dumb.
