Oh my god IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED LIKE ALL OF THEM LEFT! turns out they adjusted their plan between yesterday and today to synchronize with the local high-school, I am SHOCKED
Ive never ever EVER seen coordination like this before from them. It was almost complete unity basically everyone walked out and they did it all at the same time all coordinated only by themselves I am feeling ecstatic right now holy fuck
I am do proud of them right now holy fuck I’m CRYING
Even the ones who I thought would just be doing this to get out of school had signs and stuff and marched off with everyone else instead of just bailing! I’m so proud of them…
I thought I had already given up but hearing the kids talk about this gave me the slightest bit of hope I guess, cause at the appointed time has come and gone and nothing happened I just feel absolutely fucking gutted
There is no hope, not even the bullshit liberal nonviolent protest kind, this country is a desolation
Honestly, this is ovious to anybody who’s seen how they reacted to climate protesters glueing themselves to the streets to block car traffic in Europe. That movement was overwhelmingly people in their teens and very early 20s, and i always had the impression that made chuds fantasize more about hurting them. Fascists think they have a right, a duty even, to be violent against anybody who’s weaker than them.
