[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I attended one today and turnout was good. I don't really get the point of the protest tbh. Mostly older white liberals, with a few people of color sprinkled in like me and my child. Can anyone "explain like I'm 5" how protests actually affect change in this situation?[/quote]

This morning I was driving down Wisconsin Av in Chevy Chase and a group (about 10) crossed in front of me heading to the metro.  There was only[b] 1 man [/b]with this group and the [b]average age was 70[/b], all holding signs.

What a great advertisement for the Democrat party![/quote]

Maybe because:
-privilege of being a man
-went as the group's man/"bodyguard"
-not immigrants
-that group has already gone to college
-the group has already worked the majority of life by now, nothing to fear when protesting.[/quote]

A lot of people are just afraid. I thought the Gaza protests would pick back up after he said he was going to turn it into a resort and started deporting protesters, but I haven’t heard a thing about it. Trump has struck genuine fear in people. [/quote]
