This is certainly an interesting time to be observing world events.... Interestingly, as we speak with others, there is a solid understanding of the material conditions which exist for most of us, and that the systems which have created or enabled these conditions need to end- the thing is, people either feel helpless as to what to do, or they continue to mobilize around single issues (but not organize against the system they know has created the conditions).
Also, we keep thinking of the word 'matter', in scientific and political terms. If (as it's said) matter cannot be created or destroyed (under the (scientific) principle of conservation) it makes sense that (politically) the masses would resist to conserve their perspective political and social cultures, so with that, you have people organizing to have African humanity recognized through movements (and their respective organizational chapters) such as 'Black Lives Matter', as well as the reactionary response to movements of African self-determination: 'All Lives Matter' and 'Blue Lives Matter' in particular. You also have increasing resistance to self-determination for groups which have been historically and politically marginalized, through movements such as Men Going Their own Way (MGTOW). If the U.S. and other areas which have thrived off of capitalistic exploitation/subjugation of particular marginalized groups, it would make sense that those who profit off of, or invest in said subjugation would want to maintain that system. it would ALSO make sense that there would be mass resistance to that subjugation.
