    everyone there is doing fuck all about it.

    i think it’s important not to downplay the protests… people are organising the most political action that’s happened in most people’s lifetimes

    but it’s by no means proportional to the situation

    and perhaps more importantly: there are still a huge number of people that are drinking the koolaid

      The protests have proven to be irrelevant and ignored. Trump and his idiocy has been protested for a decade. He’s been convicted of crimes, he was declared by a court to be a rapist, when he speaks, he clearly has mush for brains, people close to him have called him a racist, he formented an insurrection. And yet here we are…

      Clearly holding up signs, even in large groups is doing fuck all.

      Thomas Jefferson had something to say about what the situation calls for.
