@psneeze @goibhniu Then why aren't the state doing anything for these people who clearly are struggling? The attitude that people shouldn't protest because the state has it covered is bollocks tbh

@ciaranmak @psneeze @goibhniu Maybe target the countries that are responsible for this. Zero chance of these people protesting outside the US embassy.

@ciaranmak @goibhniu The state has acted. Perhaps it could have done more. But there is a limit to what the state can do.

@ciaranmak @psneeze @goibhniu the state is doing something: the state is you and me and all of us here and the configuration of that state is to defend market values above all, pay obeisance to multinational capital and provide some modicum of welfare. The colour / size / shape of The State is not incidental to this broader struggle.
