I already did in broad terms. I would target politics, start a party or movement, grab power, votes and influence, take the helm and actually enact policy and put pressure where it hurts.

These activists must be really stupid to put their life at risk when they can simply win elections, grab power and change policies...

Don't project it on everyone else, not everyone is here tapping buttons, some people are having serious discussions and sharing quality content. Lemmy is a social media that can be used to make positive change in the world, use it to do good.

Who is still supporting Trump? All the americans i've spoke to online and irl agree that he's an idiot. The majority of people who voted for him did because they deemed him the lesser evil candidate not because they actually support him.

Trump is building ‘one interface to rule them all.’ It’s terrifying.

"You could read anyone's email in the world, anybody you've got an email address for. Any website: You can watch traffic to and from it. Any computer that an individual sits at: You can watch it. Any laptop that you're tracking: you can follow it as it moves from place to place throughout the world. It's a one-stop-shop for access to the NSA's information. ... You can tag individuals ... Let's say you work at a major German corporation and I want access to that network, I can track your username on a website on a forum somewhere, I can track your real name, I can track associations with your friends and I can build what's called a fingerprint, which is network activity unique to you, which means anywhere you go in the world, anywhere you try to sort of hide your online presence, your identity."

The Trump administration’s ongoing efforts to combine access to the sensitive and personal information of Americans into a single searchable system with the help of shady companies should terrify us – and should inspire us to fight back.

We should indeed fight back against the governments and corporations that for decades have been doing this shit.

The people downvoting you are unaware. They know trump is shit because it's all over the media but they haven't spent 10 minutes to learn about what their government does. If the red and blue battle was between trump and putin nobody would bring up the lesser evil narrative, everyone would agree that they are both shit because they are fully aware of it.
