I’m shocked that I haven’t seen one protest yet. Is the media suppressing them? If there aren’t any, why?

    Yeah, I hope every American here realizes that the lunatics behind Jan 6 are more effective protesters than they are.

      Jan 6 had a lot of money behind it. People fundamentally do not understand how hamstrung leftists groups in the U.S. are. Yeah, the people who received millions of dollars were able to charter busses to bring people to the capitol, and the people who are receiving tens of dollars are barely able to have a media presence. No shit.

      It’d be really cool if maybe some of the people who wanted Americans to be doing more would actually put their money where there mouth is and work to get large donation efforts going towards leftist groups in the U.S. The way I see it, you can start funding partisans here now, or you can start doing it after Trump tries to invade/destabilize whatever country you’re living in.

      J6 was an astroturfed operation by the current dictator in charge. We currently have several grassroots protests around the country being suppressed, and have a long history of protesting and rioting for civil rights in this country.

      You clearly get your news from corporate media or else you’d be aware of this.
