- Thread starter Axe
- Start date
At this point with Trump, I would rather say I at least tried to do something vs just doing nothing at all.

It feels so weird seeing this thread not gaining any traction.
Maybe most people are distracted by the Acosta news or experiencing a post-midterm lethargy, but I hope you get enough people out there to protest this mess.
I wish you all the best!

And wanting people silenced for not agreeing with you is totally not fascism. Gotcha.
You do struggle to imagine that others can disagree in good faith don't you?
The events all being at 5 PM local time probably does not help. I would guess a good portion of posters on here work M/F 8-5/9-6.
MoveOn is a shadow of what they were previously. I think these protests are going to be widely ignored.
I would be there if I didn't need to be with my son in the hospital.
Please go protest for me Austin.

Hey. Instead of prognosticating and doomsaying why don't you discuss your plans for protest and offer ideas on how to get more people engaged today?
Show solidarity with people that we won't let it go unnoticed. Idk makes me feel much better than just having a few complaints on a message board and then moving on.
There's a looooot of gop congressmen who held onto their seats by the skin of their teeth, letting up on the gas makes them feel safe, if they feel vulnerable they're less likely to follow this idiot blindly.
I mean if a poster's contributions to discussion around this event are well in line with what an alt right sock puppet would say, they should shut the hell up or be shut up, yes. The endless false equivalence between fighting fascism and actual fascism is exhausting.
Shit like:
is ignorantly counterproductive at best.

Most daily protests have been largely ignored, but they've been happening so frequently,and at very local levels in both Democratic and Republican majority areas. They have been effective.
Way to blow your load early. JFC. The whole point is to make one huge demonstration the moment Mueller gets fired or otherwise becomes incapable of finishing his investigation. That hasn't happened yet, AFAIK
You are looking for a big spark and telling people to watch and wait for a particular thing. Trump and co understand that people are watching for that, and are trying to slip around it. Your statement is proof that their strategy may work.
guys, let's wait for the face-eating alligators to eat all our faces before we start protesting
Regrettably most people here think complaining online and going out to vote every other year is all they can possibly do.
Did you see the volunteer thread?
https://www.resetera.com/threads/2018-elections-get-involved-ot-register-volunteer-vote.43298/
over 1300 signed up in Long Beach so far. I'm cautiously optimistic.
Coordinating this on a dime after mid terms is surely a difficult task for the organisers.
Hopefully the demonstrations are strong and have good attendance numbers.
And having some one in control that can pretty much starve the investigation isn't that? You realize they can obstruct it this way without having to go to those lengths that are mode obvious and avoid the big protests. Which if they are smart they will do that. Besides, it's a bit too late once they get to firing him.
I'm hosting the Concord, NH event; the signups have jumped from just over 500 to just over 600 over night.
But guys, maybe we should wait until Trump declares himself King before we protest. Don't want to be too premature.
Actually thinking about it. Maybe we should wait until Baron is declared ruler before we protest.
Also there is a light breeze out today. Maybe we should wait until the weather is better. That way turnout is higher.

Go to the website and see if there is an event close by, if not you will have the option to host one. Basically just saying where.
If it happens it will be longer then 5 minutes, and you can come late. :)
I didn't know if the last minute nature of it or the shooting in CA would make the organizers postpone the protests.
Man, if we had to postpone something every time a mass shooting happened in this country nothing would get done. It's sad.
The protest was always going to be last minute, that's why the name of the protests make
Sense (rapid response)
Most people would rather post Mueller memes than actually do something.
This is why it really bothers me when people on here say that Avenatti fights the wrong way. Here's your opportunity to fight the "right way" and most would choose apathy.
We deserve Trumpland.
The projected turnout in Cleveland is supposed to be ~1500, but who knows how many there'll actually be. I'm hoping for the best!
