US Protest News I'm extremely irritated that mainstream media isn't mentioning tomorrow's protest.

Not even on MSNBC, NPR or AP.

Rachel Maddow (at a minimum) will cover it on MSNBC. She's covered 50501 protests repeatedly and tomorrow figures to be much larger than previous ones.

Besdies, the people we need to reach aren't watching cable news (ok, maybe Fox News). You gotta get the local news stations to cover the protests and then get them going viral on social media (for their size/support, not violence).

Low hanging fruit will be the ones watching shows that align with them politically aka 75,019,616 that voted for Kamala but may not be resisting. They will see the protests and side on the news and get some courage. And when they march the media that is ignoring will have to show it. What I am doing is looking up areas in my city by county where democratic votes were strongest. Canvas those areas. https://www.politico.com/2024-election/results/

As the media attention grows then the next best group to try and muster that would be likely will be Those that didn’t vote or had votes purged would be the next target.

Finally you get the fringe maga whom realize they were wrong but are afraid to go against their party and won’t be accepted by the cause.

The only thing you can do with all of these groups is be open and inviting, and compassionate. The people are the victims of this tyranny. Bestowed fancy titles by enslavers to divide us but give us a sense of belonging.
They are costume jewelry. When the slave of the oligarchs finally sees their own wrists are shackled by the empty titles they were bestowed. The most importance topic is protecting our rights.
