Where do I get one of these paid protest jobs? Do I need to be on the Illuminati Newsletter?

Comment on Why does it feel like protesting isn't as "extreme" as it used to be?

The things people are protesting against now are pathetically trivial compared to the things those people protested, that’s why.
They’re more just a bunch of people don’t like something, or are against something that they think is happening when it actually isn’t (or is at least a 50/50 issue).
There’s also the fact that most of the protesters these days are just virtue signallers, or are rent-a-protest paid protesters who couldn’t care less.

Just go sign up for any of the activist organisations that advertise it:

Did you really think that the protests that are 90% pensioners holding all the same print signs and chanting the same thing, often reading from their printouts they were given, were organic?

I’m intrigued, can you find any links to pages to sign up as a “protester” I looked around on those sites but couldn’t find any.

ROFL so instead of taking me directly to these supposed job postings, you link me random Internet garbage that says they exist with the same credibility that you have. Which is none.
Meanwhile friends of mine have protested and not gotten paid anything. But they are probably Illuminati.
Mount Rushmore was a cover up.

This is ridiculous. I have been at three protests this year so far. One for union rights, another for immigration rights, and the third for keeping the presidential powers in check. None of these are “trivial”. Maybe the real answer is that the privileged don’t feel the need to look at the bigger picture.
