I think you've misinterpreted this. Per social media, people of color are advising each other to stay home because if the protest is met with violence by police, they will be the first ones hurt.

Yeah, find someone stupid to believe this. My brain hadn't rotted like yours. There were multiple anti-deportation protests with people who actually have real risks who participated across the country. LA had a big one. You are saying again? POC who are numerous in DC metro area were "told" not to participate because of ICE raiding the protests? Because what? Everyone who isn't white looking is likely to be a recent migrant? Or even an immigrant? Is this 1800s?

What they really need to see is voters voting for Democrats. That would scare them straight. But so far they don’t seem worried about it. I heard ine Republican strategist say that protests turn off voters. Bad memories of Democrats supporting BLM riots, lootings, burnings.

This is absolutely correct, but Democrats continue to ignore good advice.

This is absolutely incorrect. Democrats did not support lootings and burnings. They virtually unanimously condemned it. But Republicans continue to ignore good reality and feel they have to resort to smears.

it is not MAGAs burning Teslas. It isn’t even republicans. The arson of Teslas is being done by (say it with me):


- democrats.

Its such a weird civil war amongst the democrats. Dems are burning Teslas that were bought primarily by other Dems who smugly bought Teslas to demonstrate their Green cred. Weird.

You and your obsession with burning Teslas. No burning Teslas at any protest I saw today. No Teslas at all. The destruction of Tesla is all on Elon and he seems to be able to destroy his company all on his own.

Today was a lot of peaceful angry protesters that have lost a lot, like we all have and gained absolutely nothing in return. What a waste of an administration.

NO! Destruction of Tesla is on you, it's on thuggish behavior of those who think it's righteous to confiscate property of others and steal their time they spend earning the money to pay for these cars. It's making it "dangerous" to use these vehicles, so that nobody buys them. How do you do this? Your terrorize existing owners who already paid for their cars making them afraid to use them, wanting to sell them and creating overall environment of threat for new owners who dare to buy them now. Then you blame this on Elon, as if he is going to pay for damages to the cars already purchased.

You are full of cr*p hypocrites who are either too dumb to realize that EVERYTHING in your everyday life that you use contributes to oligarchy or you simply have no ethical qualms taking away property rights of others and using THEIR property, not yours for your cause.

Unless you are Amish living off the land and barter you should stay this argument out. You have zero moral ground here.

Folks, we’ve got a case of third degree hurt feelings here. Someone get a bandaid shaped like Neville Chamberlain, stat.

I was out for several hours today and I've seen people from every race and age and they have been turning out all across America by the hundreds of thousands. My social media feeds are completely flooded with photos and videos from all across the US.

Sorry to disappoint the DCUM gaslighters. "Everyone is staying home" is just not a thing today.

Letting the world know there are still sane people living here.

Brown people are mostly staying home this time, because protesting under Trump could be deadly for them. White people 40+ are taking up the slack.

That's how I felt. I am white, upper middle class, in my 50s, and don't work for the government. I felt that it was my responsibility to protest for all the federal workers or people of color who feel that it is risky for them to do so.

I al not surprised. I knew this was going to happen. There is such a divide in the Democratic Party between white people and POCs. Keeping everything else constant, (education, lifestyle, wealth) I knew the minute all the whites in my alma mater chat group were going to to the march it was not for me.
