      They’ve occupied the metro. Of course we are protesting. Minnesotans have been protesting every day since Renee Good was murdered. But it doesn’t show up in the news.

      But they just go home in the evening. The Fed gov’t feels no pressure to change. ICE will continue tomorrow as if nothing happened.

      The movement is being sandbagged while Trump builds his personal army to crush any resistance.

        Protests tank the economy and affect diplomatic relations. With enough organizational support they can also grow into strikes.

            Look at this MAGA Traitor, trying to convince angry citizens to hide in their homes, not speak up, and not fight back.

              Lol. Check my comment history next time. I’m more someone who wants to see this movement gain ground, not get sandbagged, which is what I’ve been seeing so far.

              My words are harsh on purpose. Sometimes that’s necessary.

                I can only speak for myself, but the types of responses you’re leaving in this thread are de-energizing. They’re a powerlessness narrative where nothing is good enough for you, so people shouldn’t even try. That’s how it comes across, whether or not that’s your intent. If you really want to help build the resistance, I would encourage you to take a different approach, because this one you’re using is doing the opposite.
