    Remember. Property damage isn’t violence!!

    It’s probably the only way to make the protests be something politicians HAVE to deal with. They can ignore the minor inconvenience of people congregating. They can’t ignore having to replace cars, repair building, and have their budget fucked up.

    Protests need to be disruptive. Like the garbage collectors strike in paris(?).

    It’s can’t just be those who are already agreeing with you, thats why the no kings are kind of a circle jerk. Your protesting to whom? Who do you want to hear you? How can we disrupt the day to day lives of our representatives and federal government?

    I mean shit. Just chalk messages on the sidewalk outside Stephen millers house caused him to run away to a military base
