The simple answer, of course, is that there is no alternative. We are heading into chaos regardless of any political solution. There is no political solution in the traditional sense because those controlling the wealth and power have burned all the bridges.

We have to take to the streets but not in the way liberals did following Trump’s election. The gesture that was the women’s march was too grand and answered none of the questions. Liberalism has no answers to the current situation.

Taking the fight to the doors of the lawmakers is only one part of this. People must organise locally and coordinate loosely. The establishment doesn’t fear a national organisation (the Bernie movement has shown that) but the fragments of such a movement can build on the learnt experience.

America is primed for this. The truth of this is self evident and those on both the left and the right understand that politics as we know it has deserted them. There must be a people’s revolution within America. The American Empire will either rot from the inside and take the world with it or it’s people will find their true voice.
