Lucy Parsons, born a slave and later a widely known anarchist, declared in one of her most famous speeches:

How many of the wage class, as a class, are there who can avoid obeying the commands of the master (employing) class, as a class? Not many, are there? Then are you not slaves to the money power as much as were the black slaves to the Southern slaveholders? Then we ask you again: What are you going to do about it? You had the ballot then. Could you have voted away black slavery? You know you could not because the slaveholders would not hear of such a thing for the same reason you can’t vote yourselves out of wage-slavery.

Lucy E. Parsons (c. 1851 – 1942) was an American social anarchist and later anarcho-communist

She was a founding member of the Industrial Workers of the World and edited radical newspapers.

Following the Russian Revolution in 1917, Parsons moved towards communism. She became a notorious political figure and Chicago police attempted for decades to stop her speaking publicly.

Every day I learn about a new cool person from history, it never stops.

What remains of the IWW in the USA has a framed sweater she knitted for Albert her husband while he was on death row because a bomb thrown by an unknown killed some cops at at a strike he was an organiser for.

just girl thoughts 💅

PotD can be effective, but only if enough conditions get bad enough for the majority of people are hurting bad enough. The pressure has to be built-up to the point that the normally "I'm not a political person" types have personally been fucked over badly enough. Otherwise they are able to be kept in line by corpo propaganda about how "evil" the person(s) are for being violent. Law and order and all that.
