As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power belongs to the people.

    the power belongs to the people

    lol yeah sure it does, that’s why the minimum wage hasn’t changed in almost two decades and the healthcare system is a meatgrinder of bankruptcy

    I went to the last No Kings, it was not a bad use of a couple hours. Saw a lot of old ladies calling themselves Antifa. People thanked me for bringing a Palestinian flag, while a few people didn’t know what it was. Would do again

      I did the same thing and almost no one talked to me and I felt super awkward. The rally consisted of a ton of white boomers with American flags 🥴

      Where did you get your Palestinian flag, or where would be a good place to get one?

        I got one made in Palestine from here: https://www.kufiya.org/collections/sumud-stories/products/sumud-stories-palestine-flag

        apparently they have to literally send the single color fabrics in different shipments from the West Bank to Jordan, Lebanon and Syria to be finished by Palestinian refugees there because they can’t even make them in the West Bank

          Thank you. Beautifully made and all the more meaningful considering the situation behind the labor that went into getting it made. I will be ordering one.

          From the description on the site:

          Due to restrictions on the production of Palestinian flags in the West Bank, the fabrics are produced individually in workshops and then delivered to Palestinian refugee camps, where they are sewn and finished.

    Wish me luck when it happens, i’m doing another side protest to try and recruit people to the local org i help run

    Last time I made some of the older people upset with my chants, but nobody tried to confront us

    I’m just preparing for when someone gets their back up enough to try something

    Go and recruit people. Many of these people have other outlet than these protests and some are ripe for radicalization

    Bring them into whatever campaign you’re working on or into whatever org you’re in.

    Hell, print flyers for you commie book club and hand them out. Take advantage of this opportunity where you–just one person–can reach hundreds of people

      Can confirm this works. A lot of these people dont have proper outlets and are just reaching out to something. If you show up with a group that is actually building and doing shit then a lot of those will show up.

      Like having Trump be gay with Putin or Trump being gay with anyone or Trump being gay by himself

            Trump is the biggest, strongest, (Why “strongest”? I don’t know.) bestest, successfulest Broadway producer of all time. All time.
