I'm sorry to say but 60s-70s-80s era kayfabe protests won't do it.
The last one that had proven this, Occupy WallStreet, was dismantled surgically by the boys n' gals with sunglasses & badges with 'Special' attached to their role. At that time, sure, it was because of the economic crisis, but don't hold your breath by for miracles, because those don't exist in a vacuum.

Public display of self-righteous indignation won't cut it, anymore...

Remember: police, military, IC, all have bills of their own to pay, mortgages of their own to pay, wives/husbands/children/concubines of their own that have wants n' needs to satisfy.

Their paycheck+retirement plan VS you displaying self-righteous indignation.


The rules had been changed, a long time ago... “pride cometh before a fall”...
