Police forcefully removed Occupy Wall Street protesters during Obama's presidency, and a militarized force appeared in 2020, attacking people with rubber bullets, tear gas, and physical assaults. Now, they're a fully trained totalitarian militia, stomping civil rights for our government and elites when we employ our nation's liberal democracy ideology, which was always a facade.

Shawn Fain is the voice we've been missing since the Red Scare/Cold War repressed and punished labor activists for communist rhetoric. The attack on worker rights and power has dismantled us for decades, but people have limits, and resistance is inevitable. Buckle up!
