We live in a representative democracy, might as well use it to our advantage. I say start with the basics. Money out of politics (if there is no money in politics we get rid of the politicians who are only in it for the money). Demand legislation or vote em out!. If you don't agree, then you are not part of the 99% anyway. Then move on to the more sensitive issues.
The fact is, the 1% are powerless to stop ANYTHING we decide. IF we start building a strong foundation. Voting in politicians that actually have our interest at heart.
how does 51% do anything if consensus requires 90%
It doesn't.
