TIL No Kings Protests were the 3rd Largest in US History

And didn’t accomplish shit, by design. These types of protests are intended to channel frustration of the masses into feeling like they’ve done something, when really they’ve accomplished nothing.
That was more than enough people to overthrow the parasitic ruling class. Just do it already.
Please, if you feel like you've got the charisma and plan to rally us to, come on over and do so. Otherwise you're doing no better.
Doing no better than what? What was accomplished? What’s the bar we’re measuring against?
Than the people you criticized. They got off their asses and touched grass for a few hours, met other likeminded individuals, networked, got to know allies in their communities. What are you doing, Comrade? Other than rereading the Communist Manifesto for the zillionth time? Where's your praxis?
That’s what I wanted to confirm. If that’s the bar we’re setting for accomplishments, my group’s blowing them out of the water.
Funny attempt though. I’m not sure how you expected the argument to go your way, when your own standards for accomplishment set a bar so low that almost every single person minimally involved in any activism is doing loads more than this bare minimum measure.
Considering the “no kings” folks were sponsored by the Walton family and purposely enforced a stance of silence on the Gaza genocide, this doesn’t even meet the threshold for bare minimum on human decency.
Cool, then Sieg Heil to you, mein guter Herr. Enjoy your moral superiority when ICE kicks in your door.
Yes, if you oppose ICE but not the genocide, I am morally superior to you. That is a factual statement.
Your conspiracism is silly but otherwise you're correct
What conspiracy?
"funded by the Waltons"
“Conspiracy” implies something hidden. The financial backers of this event were listed in plain English on their ads.
It was a moral victory. It showed us jow strong and numerous we are and we needed that.
It was a protest organized by a billionaire that was overtly anti-revolution and neutral on genocide.
It was specifically set up to reinforce inaction among a frustrated populace. Numbers don’t mean anything, without the will to use those numbers to revolt.
Go do something violent then
You first.
HEY EVERYBODY!..."you first" is absolutely NOT the flex you think it is.
Says you.
Amazing observation!
