What about the freedom to put what drugs I want in my own body? Cause my whole life it seems like everyone was super gun hoe to take that freedom from me. To use it as an excuse to expand the bipartisan police state.
Fuck the “normal” people lust for.
What does that have to do with anything?
errr you do have the freedom to put anything in your body. Just be private about it instead of posting here!
Madison, WI
I LOVE the Time one, lmao
I stole it from someone on here…
I was at this protest:
Had to make sure I wasn’t in any of the photos after this, because they are very serious about the area being extremely pro Trump. I know of at least 5 permanent Trump signs in the area.
Always makes me sad to see these stroadside protests that don’t have enough people to shut down the road. You guys deserve better
They closed the four roads around the capital of WI.
There was one minutes away from my home in suburban Aurora, CO. For being such an off-central location, turnout was excellent and there was so much support from those driving by! I realized how great those protests outside of downtown are; super convenient (easy to attend and get others to join) and seeing things like that happen in unexpected places, especially the more residential areas, has a little more meaning when you drive by.
I’m disappointed by the sheer scarcity of Epstein reminders.
Big whoop. They should be doing this every fucking day. Not one Saturday every three months. 🙄🙄🙄Not to mention 11,000,000 protested today but 77,000,000 voted for Shittler.
Are you a Russian divisive troll or just an asshole
Which part of what they said was incorrect?
Nice downvotes…but, what’s this? No replies. Hmmm, I fucking wonder why. It’s a mystery!
Sorry, these protests are a fucking joke.
If you want change,
Doomerism has to die.
Do more than chant “mid” like trolls do
Weekend protests do squat for fascism. 85,000,000 Americans don’t have healthcare insurance. And they have been made to believe it’s a cOmMuNiSTt cOnSPiRaCy if they were to have equal access to healthcare. There are a million homeless in the USA. No American gives a fuck really. Yet when Macron was going to raise retirement age to 67, the French:
Until they got their way. Americans have a lot to learn and will need to go waaaaaay beyond weekend protesting in joyful animal suits before they see anything change.
Yah it’s not going to achieve anything but it well make some people feel like they did something.
Starting to think lemmy is starting to be targeted by the maga bot farm and hired instigators.
Reddit is lost. It’s all bots now.
So they thought they could follow us here.
Most on here are pretty liberal. So it’s not going to work. FOff
Next they will talk about how Hamas is anti lgbtq and the Israeli are actually super wonderful kind people.
I was on vacation and ended up joining the one that was legit outside my hotel. I will have to join the next one in my hometown. My biggest thought was it needs to happen every single week.
Good work!
And what did it accomplish? What will be different tomorrow? You’d think with millions of people on the street, something would be accomplished
Ignore the doomer above folks, keep the numbers rising.
If I exercise today, what will I accomplish? Will I be different tomorrow? Of course the answer is that I won’t accomplish much, and I probably won’t be noticebly different tomorrow; nobody increases their bench press 25lb after a single workout.
The point is not the results of a single workout, because what is significant is not the effect of a single workout or protest or any other long-term effort you want to examine, it is the cumulative effect of continued work toward a common goal.
The Powell Memoradum was written in 1971. The Heritage foundation began developing project 2025 in early 2022. These are efforts that have been in development for decades and years, respectively with many people working very patiently to see them implemented.
Of course a single protest isn’t going to do anything to undo decades of well-orchestrated political and economic changes. If people want to see this changed they can’t stop with a single protest. Just like making a new years resolution to go to the gym once isn’t going to undo years of neglect to change someone’s physical fitness, going to a protest once isn’t going to undo the years of damage to the U.S. Government.
I guess the first accomplishment was to upset frauds like you.
A protest on a weekend every couple of months oh no what we’ll they do. It’s pointless and not doing anything you have to disrupt the system for people to care not work within its confines. Look at how France protested.
Mass networking and marketing for direct action groups that will be better poised to accomplish something with increased numbers? This is such a dumb take.
I see, but that was said after the last protest. And it still took about 4 months to do it again.
When do you think the next protest will be? Will it even be this year?Listen, I applaud this protest in its essence. Honestly, I do, but they need to be done more frequently. 3 protests a year will do nothing against the obese imbecile, he literally just rode out the paedo Epstein list accusations, and is an adjudged rapist.
Once every 4 months isn’t going to cut it, there’s too much time in-between for people to forget. Once a month isn’t great, but will cause ongoing damage. You’ve got to admit that more needs to be done, surely…
Populations have inertia, it takes time to shift millions of people. These protests started centuries ago. They’re happening more frequently, on a larger scale. That’s undeniable progress.
Protests take time to coordinate and build interest. If you have them too frequently then people don’t show up as much, and the crowds get smaller, and then they’re just this thing that’s happening. A little time between let’s the anticipation build up and then it becomes an event.
This is a perfectly fine frequency for trying to coordinate millions of people. Yelling about how we need to rush it isn’t going to make it go any faster.
Centuries ago come on what BS. And it’s not going to build up it’s just a vent so people can feel good about doing something. But it’s pointless.
Why does it take long for Americans look at yellow shirt protest in France if they would have taken as long their retirement age would have been increased.
It’s an extension of the workers rights movement from a century ago, which was an extension of the liberation movement from a century and a half before that, which was an extension of the Magna Carta centuries before that.
This isn’t a new threat, it isn’t a new movement. It’s simply the newest battle in a long war between the people and those who exploit them.
Nothing.
It will silence people into complicity. Will make as much difference as the Woman’s March. So while the people at that protest tell people to speak out, will quickly turn around and silence anyone that speaks against it. I completely agree with every point the protest make, but know that not a damn thing will change, like it wasn’t the previous eleventeen times.

Sounds like something a republican would say
White liberals always start sounding like MAGA when you tell them that their good intentions don’t actually do anything
Your entire comment history is shitting on people for protesting. What a fucking ghoul.
Protest away but it’s not going to do anything one Saturday every couple of months.
So he’s better at one thing than Obama, unifying hate.
I wish I could’ve gone to this one but I’m oncall. The last one was huge, so I hope this beats those number estimates.
It did!
Right there with you. I would have loved to have joined, but I’m overseas for a few weeks and the country I’m in had nothing going on for it (unsurprisingly, of course) 😭
I’m glad ppl made it out. And showed their stance. But the worst part is that this will have 10 second less than 25 word coverage on major news outlets
Couldn’t that also work in your favor? People starting to question why such large movement isn’t covered on major news outlets?
