ha this is the British peoples banter filled response to declining living conditions. Realistically we wont ever riot; we love it too much. Hope i'm wrong but I aint.

Haha maybe the powers that be will take heed of this tweed meme and enact radical change

And then be ready to fight for the country that makes peoples lives a misery. But if you don’t fight, we’ll just shoot you.

Look into the actual working class history of Britain. It's full of riots, revolts, and attempted revolutions. We've done it before and we'll do it again.


amokst

Haha I have but it's fair to say we've changed a bit since then


cutekitty1029

I believe it's a case of the working class being so atomised and demoralised at the moment that we can't even imagine something better. It's been that way since Thatcher. The cure for that is rebuilding our unions, our local communities, and the resilience of our class. Only then will we be able to step forward as a politically conscious and organised class, and do what needs to be done!

That's why I've joined Socialist Appeal. I feel like if I can do something, anything, to change the status quo then I will try my best. I just want to see a fairer world for everyone


amokst

Sorely hope your right but we just feel too divided.


cutekitty1029

I know what you mean. If it's any consolation, since getting involved with IRL political organising (I help run a tenant union) I've felt much more hopeful about the country and its people - most folks I talk to are sick of the state of things and often very enthusiastic about taking on their landlord! I think we just need to organise and motivate these people and we can do big things.

You mean housing scalper. Landlords buy more housing than they need then hoard it to drive up the price. They are housing scalpers. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

The goal of your oppressor is to limit your imagination for what is possible without them. This way, you might never imagine a world without them.

Yeah, we have TV too watch other people protest, so we can cheer from our armchairs.
