A more onion-y title would be something like "Conservative commentator quotes Marx, calls for mass protests and strikes".

The actual title is more just !ironicorsurprisingnews than !nottheonion material imo

Edit: You've editorialized the title?

Posts must be:

1. Links to news stories from...
2. ...credible sources, with...
3. ...their original headlines, that...
4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Unless it was changed post-publication, the original is

Conservative NYT Columnist David Brooks Calls for ‘National Civic Uprising’ to Defeat Trumpism – Complete With ‘Mass Rallies, Strikes’

Imo that's actually more onion-y than the changed title

Was he one of those Brooks brothers from the riot?

People are products of their culture and the material conditions that they live under. So, we have two choices: we can either take a hands-off, or laissez-faire, approach and allow conditions to change organically and just accept any political or social changes that might come about, or we can take a more direct approach and try to change the conditions that people live under, and the culture, in such a way that will make something like the Trump movement much less likely to emerge. But, the second option probably won't just happen, spontaneously or organically, it would probably require a fairly heavy handed, top down approach. I know many people are quite apprehensive about that, so that approach would likely be quite controversial.

So, what's it going to be? Let things just play out organically and see what happens, and accept that the outcome may or may not be desirable, or try to steer the course of US society more directly and deliberately?

Smart guy

However I don't think he is calling for violence
