This is exactly the kind of defeated, pseudo-intellectual bullshit that keeps people passive. You're not exposing some hidden truth—you're doing the work of the powerful for them by trying to convince people that resistance is futile.
I was in Portland at the BLM protests. Trump couldn't do a thing about it, and it pissed him off.
He tried everything to shut it down—federal agents, threats, propaganda—and still couldn't stop it.
Now he's trying the same playbook again, deploying federal forces—National Guard, ICE, Border Patrol, Marines—to LA, DC, Chicago, Portland, Memphis, with plans for New Orleans, NYC, Baltimore, San Francisco, and more.
If protests just "strengthen authority" like you're claiming, why does he keep desperately trying to crush them?
This "protesting makes you compliant" take is pure defeatism dressed up as wisdom. It's capitulation with a thesaurus.
The powers that be don't need to fund protests to control you—they just need you to believe fighting back is futile. You're spreading their propaganda for free.
