    I can’t predict what the outcome will be. It might fizzle out, or it might gather momentum and produce a result.

    We’ve already seen that it seems to be effecting Tesla’s stock price. I think either way it’s important for people to see others openly defying all this, if only to prevent the chilling effect that Germany seemed to go through by the lack of visible resistance to the Nazis.

      imho, you are too deep down into the path to fascism right now. Stock prices won’t change the plan of becoming Russia 2.0. Don’t need capial market value when you have de facto slaves, oligarch power and isolationist economy.

      btw i was talking about “protest or rally or general strike” in general, not only US. In italy they have not much value anymore. Indefinite strikes (i mean “we strike until you give us what you want”) and focussed strikes (as in one single company) are the ones that work. + all the little stuff that won’t make headlines or virality on social media because ‘‘person convinced their whole department that that thing was bad and they fixed it’’ is not cool enough
