Individuals will never be able to overthrow the systems that oppress them. Amazon doesn't care about what you want and will sooner poison your well than lose a profit.
Collective action is how we balance the disparity of power. You know, like unions and the government.
Partially correct, but the constitution states it is militias that are to do this.
Another checks and balance system.
This is also why the government/media portray militias negatively.
They fear the power it represents.
This is exclusively why we have the 2nd amendment.
And why they are so desperate to take it away.
The 2nd amendment is the only thing preventing us from being in the exact same boat as Australia.
edit: btw, I can site several examples of people overthrowing their oppressors.
