I think the lead brained boomers are a lost cause.

The group to convince are the unengaged or those that just vote a certain way without putting much thought.

At least in my city we are fortunate that the government buildings are located at a key intersection. Weekdays we usually just get heckled by lead brained boomers. Weekends there are way more cars, a more diverse audience, and more support in general.

It just simply won’t have the same turnout. Frankly I think weekend protests are more visible since the average person is more likely to be out and about and not at their job.

I think making the people see it and then you pressure the politicians. The politicians don’t give a fuck if thousands of people are gathered outside a building.

I attend my local protests and take the time off to do so. The last no kings protests pulled well over 1,000. Other weekend protests typically pull around 300 - 400 people. Weekday protests typically pull barely 100, if we’re lucky 150 people. It just has less impact.

The other third isn’t paying attention and will celebrate anyway

Why have an armchair? Just roll the gaming chair over

I still cannot fathom why they scheduled on a weekday for the next one. If you want turnout schedule for the weekends.

I know people should go out regardless, but they have bills to pay. A lot of people can’t afford to miss a shift and vacation time is far too limited

Ah yes technically correct. Alligator Auschwitz is just catchier for political purposes and frankly close enough to evoke the intended feelings

I mean yeah, dying in a war isn’t high on my list of activities. The only way to fix this will probably be armed conflict, but I don’t see you starting the revolution right now either

I think it becomes the most populous state
