agitate people who are more receptive to agitation, not just random shithead liberals who say something awful.

a handy checklist to gauge general agitatibility in the US, try to get several boxes checked, the more the better

not white
works for a living (not software development)
disabled / lumpen / down and out / chronic health issues
has been to prison or jail
rides public transit
not strongly committed to liberalism (e.g. non voters, apolitical, non organizing leftists, some conservatives)
not a homeowner
no habit of consuming US propaganda (TV news, Rogan, NY Times/WSJ if not in New York)
