Making noise about a relatively sudden midday midweek protest effort overall may lead to underwhelming optics. After all the noise and outage, this is all that shows up? Clearly people agent all that engaged…
A_A@lemmy.world 2 months ago
The situation is dire, yes. And maybe those 50 protests will not do much. Yet, yesterday there were many manifestations against deportations throughout the USA. Eventually, the sum of all oppositions will contribute, at the very least, to slow down the disaster.

oooh… someone mentioned this on 196, was that you? I did a couple web searches but couldn’t figure it out… they might delete this post, u should think about where else to post it…
A_A@lemmy.world 2 months ago
No it wasn’t me and i made a comment in here describing where i found it.
Also i read carefully the rules and don’t believe my post will be deleted.
Finally, just in case, i made a crosspost at my own community for safekeeping.

This is a lot of valuable information and since my post is now old (quite dead) no one will have access to this in here.
So, it’s better if you create a new post with these informations.

Oh yeah great idea, I just posted it to !politics@lemmy.world Let’s see if it stays up.
btw this post we’re on was on the front page of “all” - “active” earlier today but it seems to have slipped way off.

So happy for Americans to get to re-enact Tianamen Square 2, (except without the scholars and students of course, you’re Americans)

How the fuck can you fuck up a protest plan this badly??? Is this intentional sabotage for an effective turn out? Fucking idiots.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 months ago
plan it on a wednesday in the middle of the day so everyone can say “ah, i’m busy” and feel satisfied for doing jack shit
Bojack411@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Here is the kicker. The protest will be largely a white population. The push back is only as great as the white man can make it. Welcome to america. 🤣🤣🤣

Now I wonder if all that extra Kamala money she had leftover from donations could’ve gone to an organization to fix this American nightmare. Give us back the American dream.
The start is voting in democrats so we have a majority in DC in 2 years. The org could also help back these protests to raise awareness by making local adverts on billboards/public trans/radio.
Make it a 4 year campaign to flip America blue. Then we might be able to fix some shit.

Most democrats at the federal level are complicit in a lot of what’s going on, including Musk’s DOGE treasury crap (crimes?) despite him not being a government employee or confirmed by the senate. Hell, most federal democrats JUST in the last year voted for the legislation that enables ICE to indefinitely detain any suspected immigrant suspected of committing any crime. No due process. No actual crime needed.
Screw voting for democrats. Democrats voted to let the government round up the people I love to be deported or tortured. If we still have the power to vote, vote for leftists. Or vote for left-of-average-democrat people like Bernie.
