a majority still oppose war with Iran and… you know… raping children

Yeah, I see, that's why that majority stopped a pedophile president from having the control of the country, or stopped his clique of rarely sober religious nationalists from starting said war.

lmao you're living in a fantasy if you think Americans have the capability to stop the government through instant, direct action

The only power we have is withholding our labor, and convincing people of the necessity of that when they're brainwashed by capitalism is not an overnight or even over-4-years affair

Hadn't said you need to necessarily do it instantly and directly, you invented it yourself just so you have something to be snippy about. Deliberate work over time is also good.
Doesn't matter though, you're not doing either. Or you're so ineffective it's indistinguishable from not doing anything.

You know a lot about me for someone who does not know me lmao

But that's consistent with the fact that you live in a fantasy.
