      For direct action to be most effective, it must: - have a clear ask - with someone held accountable - and noncompliance must be costlier

      e.g. effective: "We want city council to hold a vote to commit funds to remdiate mold in public housing and we will strike until they do."

      Displaying rage can be effective in getting people to be aware of issues. But we also need better organization and targeting.

          Imagine, say, if a well-stocked group shut down the Capital Beltway with a clear goal of reversing the travel ban.

          Or if a state like California stonewalled the federal government until ambassadors were appointed. Just hypotheticals.

          Not advocating these things specifically. Just meaning to demonstrate how direct action can be focused to effectiveness.

          One way *not* to measure the effectiveness of direct action is by it's impact on the center.

          Look, if the tactics of leftists can move you to the side of racists, you were always just kind of a racist and I dunno what to tell ya.

          Also like, who are you to criticize tactics? Did you learn them from an extensive history of not organizing?

          I want to "what color is the boathouse at Hereford" every single center-leftist that tries taking lead on their very first action.

          Honestly there's a lot of issues and bleedover from the Occupy movement still, which was just so ineffective.

          People have forgotten the effectiveness of movements e.g. the Civil Rights movement where strikes, stoppages, and blocks were key to results
