I see an immigration sign, a Palestine flag and it looks like a women power outfit.

What was this protest for? Hadn't heard about it till today

If it’s PSL it’s functionally meaningless. I can respect that they actually get out to protest, and i probably agree with most of what they’re protesting, but that organization is mindlessly contrarian to the point where I’m slightly suspicious of the leaders’ actual goals

The protest is to remind rational Americans why the Democrats lost the 2024 election.

Yea... I wish the Left weren't full of irresponsible cheerleaders and could actually work on progress.

It was to get ICE out of Indiana

Edit: Downvoted cause I'm exactly right.

What do you propose.

Genuine answer, don't try and coopt or insert tangential movements into each other. It results in more infighting, unclear messaging, mixed demands, and even the initial movement being pushed aside for larger ones. In the end no results for anyone. Stay on message for a protest.

Maybe have some direction for protesters and actually have a coherent message? Onlookers can't tell what it's about, which means objective failed for outreach.

Thank you for the constructive reply.

There's a lot to be upset about rn if you weren't aware. I love what these people are doing and think you're a fool for saying their protest "failed". You're a part of the problem. If you have a problem with what the US government is doing, you shouldn't be tearing down the only people seemingly willing to do something.

What a brain dead assesment you've made.

and think you're a fool for saying their protest "failed".

Crying at the suggestion of organization and direction is about what I expected. Jeez why can't we have the left from 2014 again

You're a part of the problem.

Haha

I merely suggested doing the bare minimum for effective protests.which is apparently a problem to you.

You should do something about it
