Need a plan beyond 1 day which is a rounding error for profits of big corporations. They don't care. If they do, they'd likely recoup it by punishing everyone in the form of raising fees/prices etc. Or buyout the smaller companies that couldn't weather the storm, thereby eventually leading us to less choice (think oligopoly). We would still lose.

It would have to be sustained well beyond 1 day which would be difficult to maintain and organize that many people for a long period of time and stay committed to the cause (think of all the disinformation, psyops and other types of warfare to divide or weaken the group). If the group manages to last long enough, there will also be suffering there too, maybe even innocents involved in that collateral damage.

But say they raised a white flag and offered promises or whatever the group demanded, would we take it? It would just reestablish the power dynamic; that we need them to give us the handout. As long as that dynamic exists, we will never be free.

And you can be sure if both sides come back thinking they got the fair deal, there may not be a next time, since laws and other methods to deter such an event from happening again will become more draconian.

Occupy Wall St was a good shot, but look at how much things have changed since then.

After occupy Wallstreet, in 2012 the government used the media to push a narrative and have people focus on non economic social justice issues like racism, transgenderism, etc so we'd fight eachother over opinions, "chosing sides", and never be able to work as a team to stop them from doing all this evil shit everyone's seeing and bitching about today. Ontopn of that, now we let corporate america(they own the gov via lobbying) offer folks keyless bitcoin. It is my belief they will rug users eventually causing distrust globally in bitcoin, then roll out the CBDC. Won't use it for oil? Bombs and rockets await!

Checkmate, no?

Explain how not.

It definirely seems like checkmate. But we can't ever stop fighting until the final blow is struck against us. Even in defeat, conviction to see it through to the end as we can never know how weak they actually might be behind their facade of might. It could be the final grain of sand that becomes the catalyst to tipping the scales.

The only way you fix this problem that existed since before the Constitution (and enshrined by the Constitution, btw, few understand), is to obsolete their system.
