    Quite a bridge there, to compare governments and companies ruining our habitat to women’s suffrage. Holy hell.

    9 to 5 Joe is’t making the decisions and won’t be able to affect the situation apart from voting and activism, and these protests I talked about are only annoying the people the activists should be trying to win over, to be able to make a change.

    Suffrage wasn’t about profit driven business, it was people being shit to people, the poor and the rich all together, if we simplify it to the root.

      Maybe I missed it but it seems the average Joe voted for people that are responsible for what’s going on right now instead of trying to change direction drastically right?

        That’s pretty much it. Now should we hold the politicians responsible, or should we piss on the Joes? I’d personally see the protesters inconveniencing the politicians, and not the Apple Store employee trying to get to his work shift.

        Good example in Finland is gay rights, we got those by pressuring politicians, not by chaining ourselves to roads. It’s been proven to work, and the opposite has been seen to just get people fed up.
