[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What exactly are they protesting?
[/quote]

Vaccine mandates
Mask Mandates
Trump’s stolen election
Probably CRT

It seems to be amorphous right wing grievances.

What mandates?[/quote]

OP here. They aren’t actually that specific. Maybe they too are confusing about FCPS’s maybe mask mandate?

They are tired of the pandemic (aren’t we all). They think Trump won (he didn’t). And rather than accepting that life has sucked for most of the planet for two years and sometimes you lose elections, they are hosting an undereducated white male grievance fest. Apparently on the beltway. What interesting is that the funding, even for the Canadian protests is murky, and there seems to be a lot of astroturfing.  And, of course, FB (sorry, Meta)  is letting them organize on their platform.

Why shouldn't they organize on FB - or anywhere else?  I thought you were all about non-violent, peaceful protests?  I guess only the ones you agree with.[/quote]
