Don’t believe the doubters: protest still has power
This.
musk went into hiding, the administration toned down, we need to continue and encourage others to do, otherwise all that effort was wasted.
The protests are happening all the time, especially on weekends. I unfortunately see mostly older folks there, and this affects us much more is than them as we will have to live with this for decades of we don't do anything. One time me that he lived here for 76 years and this is unprecedented. Please continue to show up https://mobilize.us/indivisible
Continue protests at Tesla, he is in hiding but still involved.
Also please join the training https://www.pramilaforcongress.com/the-resistance-lab
The administration toned down? When the shit did that happen?
they stop talking about doge cuts, at least in msm. he hasnt aggressively push the el salvadaor, age, also the tariff talks its just almost vanished from the msms overnight in the last few weeks, most of it.
You realize all that still happening right? That didn't change y'all just got distracted by new stuff. He kept doing loud stupid things and y'all moved on. Almost like that was the plan.
it was done by the MSM on purpose.
Musk saying he is stepping down when week earlier was saying he will be there for a year (yes, I know he is behind the scenes, but was forced to not be public).
The narrative about Ukraine, Canada, Greenland softened.
Politicians who went to El Salvador.
The problem is that when this admin softened so did the protests and that's bad.
So when does standing around and chanting once a month make them step down?
When the standing around happens outside the ICE detention center and blocks ICE from kidnapping people
