  • As much as I am glad No Kings had so many people attend it, and I am glad for the small good it does, it barely counts as a protest.

    There are no goals, no demands, no threats. It didn’t inconvenience anyone (especially not the people in charge of the country) or cause commotion in the least. It was on a saturday with predefined start and end times.

    In other words, it accomplished very little other than potentially being a networking event for like minded people. If everyone who showed up to a No Kings event actually protested, things would be changing the next fucking day




  • You seem to be weirdly disconnected from the reality of voters and it feels like you’re trying to subtly discourage anything that would be better from the current state of things.

    Bernie was popular with voters in general. He would have won the primary and then the presidency if he had the chance to. People voted Trump because he promised change and Hillary just promised more of the same. People were hungry for change at (apparently) any cost and got fucked when Trump was the only option.
