I'm feeling the same way ATM. I'm tired of going to small, useless PSL protests in my town. There's still no motion on anti ICE protests except for the actual raza that are on the ground tracking and defending against it. "White America" (libs) seems content enough to just watch this shit play out, all while the ICE budget is going to balloon once BBB passes.
People want some organic armed resistance to just pop up but the class consciousness is still non existent in most sectors of our society. Electoralism won't bring us socialism, but I do hope that a wave of electoralism and DSA campaigns with a few more Mamdani's (candidates that are principled and strong communicators) combined with the ratfucking from both parties that comes after will begin to wake people up. And eventually they will be fed up enough and persecuted enough, and accepting of violence directed at the bourgeoisie, that an actual revolution can begin to occur.
