I went to my local protest. While it was huge I have to say I think I was more scared inside of it than anyone outside would have been of it. The whole thing was incredibly poorly organized. Everyone was body to body in the middle of it with no paths to get through. People brought dogs and small children into that which probably didn’t go well. Walking through I kept getting smacked by people being careless with their shitty cardboard signs with smug one liners painted on them. There was no unified chanting or anything like that but also it was too loud to actually talk with anyone or hear what any of the speakers were saying. It’s unclear who set the rally up or if there’s anyway to get involved further. I’ve been in moshpits that have been better organized.
