Forget all the “Protests don’t matter” and “No Kings is just silly” nonsense.
Protests matter. Societal resistance has been hardening. It’s a massive problem for the MAGA regime.
And “No Kings” is crucial as part of an effort to dispel the idea that “real America” stands behind Trump.

@tzimmer_history They do matter, but they need to be more sustained efforts. The protest hits every few months are not useless, but we need indivisible to call for a general strike where we turn off the economy until Trump is gone and the wars are ended, that would be more effective. Right now, Trump can easily ignore these protests.
They are good for bringing people together so they know they're not alone.
