A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.
Rules:
AOC is the last person you would accuse of being performative.
she's a politician. I like her. but she is a politician.
so.... not the last person.
you people really need to be more pessimistic and skeptical about the world. we wouldn't be in this fucking mess if you were.
Let me guess, you would want an armed revolution like the other guy.
no. at this point i think an armed revolution would be completely moronic. (although when compared to the outlook you'd have, if doing nothing, its understandable)
However.
I do think people should COLLECTIVELY cease to pay taxes. even if 30% of the population just stopped paying federal taxes, the government would be completely crippled. You would be able to force the fascists to the table. You would be able to force them out.
If the governments of blue states supported this idea, this would be even easier.
Armed revolution is asinine in comparison.... Anyway. I'm already doing my part.
Was there a point you were trying to make?
And how do you think the government might respond to a large-scale refusal to pay taxes? Maybe we have some previous examples to look at?
Small scale bullshit. I very highly doubt the government could mount an effective response if 81 million people were to stop paying taxes. But hey, good luck!
