the answer is probably collective action. cant arrest all of us.

bonus: its probably more effective too. not that putting fear in them isnt effective, but we are looking for systemic change aint we?

we must be prepared to spin the mangiones that do happen in our favor though. because it will happen again whether we want it or not, things arent sustainable as they are.
