Serving power certainly let's a person do more, just don't be surprised when people point out how it isn't helping.

There were the government shutdowns but they always cave. Then there's getting arrested while protesting (not breaking the law BTW, just straight up intimidation), which is honestly the bare minimum at this point. Look up Kat Abu for an example.
I don't think I have ever seen that explanation work on someone who is misinformed, but if I am proven wrong then the world will be a better place.

The guy literally does comedy tours. I guess I'll just go ahead and buy those tickets...
While it is true he got concessions I would not go so far as to say it strengthens US hegemony. His acts undermine the idea that the US deals consistently with it's allies and will encourage them to value their autonomy over current global norms.
I guess when I say "ask" I mean we run better candidates instead of going with whatever the Democrats decide for us. Expecting people to show up and vote for what they have dished out in the past isn't working. As you said, we will need a multifaceted approach .
Honestly this is a good response because it is asking good questions.
The AI is just an excuse, laying off people makes the stock go up because we have so many monopolies. What politicians are afraid of is people won't buy their bullshit and start rioting for real.
I'm sorry but it is naive to think that misinformed voters will learn the right lesson and vote blue no matter who. It is more practical to ask for better candidates.
They are not even thinking that deep. They just think handing assholes with power even more power is how to create more prosperity.
First event is a civics test.
