Not trying to move the goal posts but I meant in the US. I don't even remember March for Our Lives.
 
[not to derail and I think we've talked about this before] I will say, many large modern American protests do seem be more about catharsis than having clear demands. Those that have are organized, have clear demands, and are disruptive are the ones that tend to be more successful. It's also why deference should always be given to local, grassroots organizers who are about change on a daily basis.

If you don't think the BzzOut movement was a beautful example of grassroots protesting leading to effective change, then I don't know what to tell ya.

It was all those toilets in the Joel parking lot that finally convinced Wellman to fire Bzz.
 
I haven’t been bothered by Biffs posts on the thread so far 🤷🏻‍♂️
 
Even trying to put aside my opinions on Israel and Palestine, i thought Biden’s speech was poor. It seemed too forced to tie this conflict to Ukraine.
 
Bro what the fuck, just fucking annex that shit already you maniacs

Makes sense. Just keep pushing the purity test further and further back until there's no one left here who doesn't agree with you, aside from some Hannity-watcher who can't help himself.
