It’s a big tent; maybe don’t gatekeep.

Every special interest group weakens the message, and makes it easier to dismiss the left, because the reader doesn't know any trans people, or immigrants, or whatever. Autocracy is causing all these problems. Address the root problem.

I agree with this but not for the reasons you state. I think it’s simply that we need to stay on message. This is about immigration not everything else. Liberals get very caught up in trying to make intersectionality happen and it just turns people off - including me, a lifelong Dem.

That’s fair. Just know that many of us who haven’t had any choice about experiencing our lives with intersectionality — usually for externally imposed reasons— have had the experience of someone else’s “need to stay on message” valuing our votes then disappearing once they’ve gained them. Rinse/repeat. You might want to think twice before deliberately repudiating some of your most reliable voting blocs.

Separately from that, who, exactly, decided that the protests are only “about immigration not everyone else”? I’m genuinely curious because I didn’t get that memo.

Oh, to add: I really do like the focus on : Liberty and Justice for All.

This is example A of why MAGA are only keyboard warriors and never get outside with their neighbors. The negativity is such a mood killer.

I have thought about this though not in the way you are. It is true that the left turns out for protests and marches and riots in sheer numbers that the right does not. For all the hysterical shrieking of J6, it remains there were only a thousand rioters in the Capitol and many were actually just people waved in walking around. Contrast that to the many more people you find in the public riots in places like LA and the summer of 2020 and the Seattle and Portland antifa messes. Then you have the mass and not so mass "peaceful" protests quickly forgotten the next day, like this no King protest on Saturday will be regardless of how many turn out. There is no equivalent on the right side of the political spectrum.

But it also tells you these protests and riots clearly have minimal impact. It didn't stop Trump from winning in 2024. It won't stop his agenda. It changes very few minds at the ballot. It just means the left turns out to march in solidarity while the right doesn't. It makes sense given the conformist collectivist history of the left attracting a certain mindset seeking public unity in shared viewpoints versus the much more independent and skeptical aptitudes of the right that makes turning out in solidarity much more difficult. And what it also does is fool the left into thinking their support is much bigger than it really is while providing plenty of ammunition to the right over the left's inconsistencies and hypocrisies, such as marching against ICE deportation of violent illegal criminals who have committed terrible crimes.

So you’re doubling down on the MAGA negativity and ignorance. Blah, blah, blah.

Please read up on this country’s resistance history and then get back to us. Also, while 1200 1/6 traitors were arrested (no, they weren’t tourists let into the building FFS) there were thousands more.

I’ll see the rest of you lovelies tomorrow.

All the same recycled 2020 garbage. You have nothing new to give, just destroy never build up anything. Have fun burning it all down, again.

As a Canadian looking on, I really hope tomorrow's protests are all peaceful. Do not give this administration anything to use. They can make up enough.

Be safe, everyone.

I would suggest "True protest rises from the people." What you are supporting is a manufactured activity where the kings and queens of the Democratic political machine are summoning their minions to feign a fake people’s revolution.

Because it’s inconceivable that people could dislike a President who has talked about terminating the Constitution and then spent the duration of his Presidency to date violating ethical rules, laws, and the Constitution, to celebrate his birthday by putting tanks on the street in a military parade?

That’s laughable you think people on both sides are minions.

Your scare tactics don’t work. We know ya’ll scared that the failed wannabe king is losing bigly. TACO TACO man, he’s got small hands!
