A massive protest formed in downtown Los Angeles on Sunday in response to President Trump’s crackdown on immigration and emphasis on deportations, where protestors were on and off the 101 Fre…
“Massive protest” - a few hundred to low thousands. For a city as large as LA this barely registers as a protest. I guess its better than nothing, but look at Berlin which has roughly the same population. There the Nazis arent even a majority power yet and the recent protest was still in the 200k range. USAmericans really are indifferent huh?
I can’t miss work to protest the federal government.
I get that disruption is important, but I need little things like food and a roof, and I have to work to secure those things no matter how much I hate the administration.
Yeah this was a bit harsh i admit. The fact that it has gotten to the point where so many people are actually just too poor to take the time to protest is a whole level of craziness by itself.
Still i think they wont have a choice other than overthrowing their government this time. Unless they somehow reign in their leadership they wont stay “just” poor they will struggle to survive at all. If things continue at the current pace the US will have tens of millions of additonal jobless and homeless people in a few months. Nevermind the complete infrastructure collapse due to lay offs in critical public sectors and budget cuts.

I knew something about this thread smelt like Tankie bullshit, good catch mate.

Wow what an insightful comment that adds so much to the discussion.
I bet you weren’t at the systemically silenced protests that nobody knew were happeneing either.
In all fairness they have been dealing with a tad bit of fire.
If they would release a new iphone, more people would show up. This is just against fascism.
