Let’s just say it plainly: If more people spent less time protesting and more time working, we’d have fewer problems in this country. Get a job!

We don’t need more activists. We need more workers, creators, and contributors — people who build, teach, grow, clean, repair, and protect. People who raise families, start businesses, show up early, stay late, and still find time to care about their communities without lighting them on fire.

The reality is, the loudest voices in the streets today — whether they’re tagging federal buildings or blocking highways — aren’t the ones producing anything of value. They’re not putting in hours to strengthen neighborhoods, mentor kids, or build lasting institutions. They’re not paying taxes, hiring workers, or helping their neighbors.

They’re fighting everything and fixing nothing.

The Trap of Perpetual Victimhood

We’ve created a generation that believes resistance is a lifestyle and that being offended is a job title. Somewhere along the way, the idea of earning your place in society was replaced with demanding recognition for doing nothing.

Many of these same people:

  • Live off government assistance they claim to hate.
  • Rage against capitalism while tweeting on their $1,200 iPhones.
  • Demand open borders while living in rent-controlled apartments paid for by taxpayers.

And it’s all so incredibly backward — because they could actually make the world better if they stepped up and helped instead of tearing down.

You Want Change? Contribute.

You want safer neighborhoods?

Volunteer. Mentor a kid. Clean up a park. Help someone find a job instead of screaming at ICE agents who are just doing theirs.

You want stronger communities?

Get involved in your local economy. Show up, clock in, and contribute something that wasn’t there before you.

You want respect?

Earn it. Not by shouting the loudest or holding the most radical sign — but by proving you care enough to work for something instead of just destroying everything.

Purpose Comes From Production

It’s no surprise that people feel lost when they don’t work. Purpose is born from responsibility. From structure. From being useful to others.

Getting a job — any job — puts you in the world. It forces interaction. It builds skills, self-worth, and eventually, the power to make real change — not just noise.

Want to change policy?

Start a business. Run for office. Build a nonprofit that helps — not hinders. But first, punch a clock. Learn how the world works before demanding it work differently.

Because the Alternative Is Collapse

If we keep feeding this idea that protesting is more valuable than participating, that burning a city down is more noble than building one up, we are heading toward a dead-end society.

One where:

  • The productive are punished.
  • The lawless are celebrated.
  • And the very people who refuse to build anything insist they’re entitled to everything.

That’s not justice. That’s delusion.

Final Thought

It’s time for the angry, the idle, and the entitled to grow up —
Get a job. Leave the house. Join the rest of us in building something better.

You don’t need a megaphone. You need a timecard.
You don’t need more slogans. You need real skills.
And this city — this country — doesn’t need another riot.
It needs you to show up, contribute, and stop blaming everyone else for the life you refuse to build.
