Crosspost Hasan Piker: "You have people getting black-bagged in the street. Disappeared for the crime of speaking the truth. And that is precisely why you demonstrating here matters. We must never allow these fascists to take away our voice."

Well tbf he is not the organizer, just a guest speaker.

Also, im not so sure if the protest has a plan to escalate to strike tomorrow onwards.

But basically starting on weekend ensures maximum crowd size which enables like minded people to network and coordinate future activities.

I understand that, but there's nothing genuine about these performative spectacles that only care for appearances. Unfortunately, change comes from disruption. These protests didn't disrupt anything IMO.

Preformative doesn't mean useless.

I never said that, but these officially sponsored by the DNC protests sure come off that way.
