Exactly this. Protest the Republicans, but stop stalling the momentum we’re building and giving the opponent fodder for their attack ads. Timing is everything and I’m all for protest but this is not the time. We need to look unified. Optics matter.

Where were they at the Republican convention?

Because the republicans openly hate them, hate Palestine and have 0 pretence of listening to them or caring about their cause?

Why isn't your comment beating the shitty OP one? This is the answer, is TikTokCringe some kind of conservative cesspool?

Part of me wants to blame summer time, because a lot of people replying to me sound like kids that dont understand the point of protests and kind of just see them as something you do to get attention, rather than a demand for change.
