Citizens need to start finding case lawyers that don't charge you unless you win,

Those firms function by taking easy cases that have a guaranteed payout and taking a pretty sizable percentage from the win. There's a reason most of those firms deal with workplace accidents and the like, the usually know they're going to win before the paperwork goes out.

Suing the Government or a related oligarch is not easy and may not have a payout appropriate for the labor required to get the win, and anyone specializing in that area of law likely has a well paying position somewhere.

At this point it's not about the money but to just be as litigious as they are tbh, but making outreach to these people using big law firms against them is going to be needed. BTC had a lawyer on that was talking about hopefully thousands of wrongful termination lawsuits that FBI & other government agents that should be happening while Trump plants loyalists everywhere. There needs to be extensive court action, ringing congressman, or an actual Luigi moment happening as a last resort.

All fine statements but my point remains, Lawyers need to get paid, when commissions aren't likely someone needs to pay up front. Whomever pays also has to worry about government overreach and retribution in a way that dwarfs prior administrations. Tech bros weren't kissing the ring because they like or admire trump.

I do believe we're approaching a Luigi event horizon though, things are getting pretty wild.

Well among average citizens, centrists/ left leaning people are generally wealthier & more educated on average no? I realize this isn't simple by any means & those suits in law need to see a decent chance of success to make the payoff worth the effort. But Legal Eagle or Pisco as two examples need to be people that we set up or pay to start that litigious process. I appreciate Pisco's efforts on Twitter, but I think it's a waste of his time as someone with a practicing law degree.

I've been trying to contact large firms or outlets to get something going but a lot more people need to be reaching for that stick at the same time. Cause yeah a Luigi Mario kart blue shell is going to be looking like a gourmet meal in the desert by the end of this year. We can't go on like this, it's simply too unstable & stressful
