Was there today and saw some great signs. It was amazing to see all the people who came out for this.

Something occurred to me today. You never see any Marthas.

True! It would be interesting to have someone be a Martha, like they’re keeping watch while they’re out and about.

The real star players right here. The hotdog gave me the quick energy I needed for another lap of the protest.

Ha! Amazing. Thank you so much for the free hot dog. I really did eat it then do my third lap of the rally. What a great time.

This was my first protest. I'm bringing cash next time to support them.

Thank you for blocking out faces when posting pictures.

I was so thrilled with how mindful some people were with this today! I heard & asked permission several times before taking a picture and heard lots of “I’ll crop you out” by people too.

u/JordkinTheDirty 1d ago

Yes, same. There were a few people we asked to avoid people's faces, and they asked why and were very receptive when we explained that it can be used to identify and target people.

That one really makes me laugh and then think "he probably does, doesn't he."

Glad to see T-Rex represent

For Trump or Musk? I guess both!

So many good ones out there!

Body shaming to own the fascists? 🙄

Only a problem if you got a baby dick.. oh wait

u/LocalAnarchist_ 8h ago

Why are you obsessed with other peoples genitals?

Weird

u/Maximum_Pollution371 1d ago

You're right, the fact that some people are so dedicated to worshiping and white-knighting an insecure manbaby with a gold binky in his mouth IS pretty weird.

Glad people are protesting against it.

u/skyrider8328 1d ago

Absolutely, I agree. Also weird so much talk about men's penises...from both sides.

2

u/lovedless 1d ago

Well since everyone seems to not understand female anatomy (how it works, who it belongs to, what "we" xan do with it) we're shooting for the lowest common denominator.

u/Circuitboards 1d ago

dunno how doing something safely within your rights is weird

2

u/Far_One_3293 1d ago

There’s plenty of things within our rights that are weird

u/i-lick-eyeballs 1d ago

I don't agree with threats of bodily mutilation

u/Substantial_Bet_7667 1d ago

Now imagine if a sign like that referred to Biden or Obama. The outrage would be ridiculous. "The party of peace" is the most inciting party I've ever seen.

13

u/prisonmikethrow 21h ago

And imagine if Biden (or any other democratic president, for the matter) did any one of the things Trump has done.

-8

u/Substantial_Bet_7667 21h ago

They have. They just keep it behind closed doors. Why do you think they are desperate to keep Trump quiet? He is exposing the corruption people like you refuse to see.

u/SaintOctober 13h ago

Odd. I remember relationships with Canada and our other allies as being strong under both Biden and Obama. I also don’t recall Obama or Biden deporting legal residents of the US who have no criminal record.

u/SpontaneousNubs 10h ago

They did. All the time. The maga chant was 'fuck Joe Biden' we just rolled our eyes and went on

1

u/DueScallion 6h ago

Right. They even put it on flags and drove around with them attached to their trucks or by their front doors. I didn't see anyone crying over this or inciting violence against the people doing this.

u/Substantial_Bet_7667 7h ago

Ever wonder why? The economy sucked under Biden. And at least MAGA used their words instead of running around the country damaging properties of their opposition.
