    The No Kings protests must be doing something right if there’s this much astroturfing trying to discredit the movement.

      Keeping it in the news means less people realize how fucking useless they are

    Oh the No Kings protests aren’t sufficiently serving the proper causes?

    That’s too bad. Historic numbers protesting against fascism and they did it wrong.

    Now, President Trump has doubled down. His administration is sending masked agents into our streets, terrorizing our communities. They are targeting immigrant families, profiling, arresting, and detaining people without warrants. Threatening to overtake elections. Gutting healthcare, environmental protections, and education when families need them most. Rigging maps to silence voters. Ignoring mass shootings at our schools and in our communities. Driving up the cost of living while handing out massive giveaways to billionaire allies, as families struggle. Spending billions of our tax dollars on missile strikes abroad all while driving up the cost of living and handing out massive giveaways to billionaire allies.

    Should probably fact check these kinds of things first.

    Not entirely true, the first paragraph on the site mentions the war and prices. But in any case the site isn’t a list of grievances. The people at the protests said all of those things.

      Masked secret police terrorizing our communities. An illegal, catastrophic war putting us in danger and driving up our costs. Attacks on our freedom of speech, our civil rights, our freedom to vote. Costs pushing families to the brink. Trump wants to rule over us as a tyrant. But this is America, and power belongs to the people - not to wannabe kings or their billionaire cronies.

      Where?

    I love how OP had to share a screenshot from Naziland rather than just expressing the (apparently false) idea themselves. It’s not like this guy came up with something particularly witty or was posting the result of a deep investigation worthy of credit.

    Look at the actual protestors?

    You’ll find all those things in abundance.

    Free Palestine. Release the Trump-Epstein™ files. No war in Iran. Etc. Trump must go. Fuck Trump. Etc.
