      ridiculous, isn’t it? they’ll show up to stand around doing nothing holding signs, but when asked to actually fight for their beliefs they suddenly become pacifists and cowards.

      it’s easy to see why we’ll never win.

        Who are you talking about? You said it takes all of us, are you just talking about all protestors or all Americans or all liberals?

        The people protesting recently have not been “doing nothing” they’ve been doing everything they can to stop or obstruct ICE agents from disappearing people. It took a military deployment to stop them. That is not “doing nothing”

          everyone left of center. enough people that they can’t come after us all.

          and i don’t see people effectively stopping ICE. i see people making big shows for their social media. if you want results, you have to make them scared to do their job.

            So you want 150 million + people to all throw their bodies in front of federal agents at the same time.

            Yeah, totally super easy, you have good reason to be defeatist. You set the bar unimaginably high and your fellow citizens didn’t clear that bar so it’s time to give up.
