The protest is certainly larger than that crappy 50501 protest right after the election, but I still fail to see the short term goal. Occupy wallstreet and the Palestine protests actually had a goal of disruption hoping to force change, this one is literally just for ass pats.
There is literally no goal except orange man bad. Hardly any even noticed that I saw that the government is shutdown, but a lot were chanting 'shut it down'.

We're dealing with 75-95 IQs at best that have no idea wtf is going on or even any ideas at all The rest were paid $10/hr to show up, those are the younger ones. Only the only grannies and geezers are the true believers in this shit.
 
I drove past a No Kings protest. You have middle aged women that brought their kids grouped together with decrepit old people just chanting and screaming like mindless zombies. How sad and pathetic. There's plenty of other things these people could do with their time. With that, I felt a little uncomfortable driving past as I'm sure one of them would want to just block traffic and crowd around "disruptors."
 
why does the statue have no head?
The phrase "Australian memorial with head cut off" most likely refers to the vandalism of the King George V Memorial statue in Melbourne's King's Domain parklands. This bronze statue, erected in 1952 to commemorate the British monarch (who reigned during World War I), was decapitated on June 10, 2024, during the King's Birthday long weekend. The act was captured on video and shared online, showing vandals using a power tool to sever the head while playing the Sex Pistols' "God Save the Queen" in the background. Red paint was also thrown at the monument, symbolizing blood or anti-colonial protest.


Pretty bad they'd not tear the whole thing down or do something after a year, but that's aussieland.
 
My pet theories regarding why the No Kings protesters are overwhelmingly old fucks:
1. They're all hippies from the 1967 Summer of Love, except it's almost 60 years later where these aging useless hippie fucks are in retirement homes and want to feel young again (while acting equally as retarded as last time)
2. All the young people are up to date, but because of that they're completely and utterly blackpilled on the leftoid cause due to Trump ending the Israel-Palestine war, so they didn't bother protesting him for once
3. Old people caught wind of paid protesting, so they decided to get out of their retirement homes and get paid to have fun doing so
I think it's a bit of Column A and Column C. They want to feel fulfilled and important for the next revolution or uprising, despite the fact that their generation has caused the negative effects, which then LED TO Trump being elected twice. What do they do all day? Stare at the TV for the 24/7 news cycle or foolishly use their smartphones to spam shit on Facebook because they're too braindead and selfish to understand the bigger picture.
 
Hmmm seems like cope.I am pretty sure there was stated end times for the protests, while i feel in my heart that people here were most likely paid, i would not say leaving at the same time is necessarily proof of that.
What even is there to protest for the right? Judges? Illegals not being deported fast enough? I guess, but similar to these retards protesting Trump, it wouldn't make any real difference.
I doubt there will be any right wing protests till the republicans fall.Even then, people will be more hesitant because of Feduary 6.
 
They're protesting the President's control of the Executive Branch.
I genuinely think that a lot of people are stupid enough to be tricked by this, and HAVE been tricked by this. It's like the argumentative version of a street magic trick with playing cards. You point at a man trained in using his authority, experienced with being in authority, can be considered an authority on at least one subject, currently placed in a position of authority, and effectively wielding his authority, and then you say "He's an authoritarian, and here's why that's a bad thing" in your opinion article in that cushy job you got through nepotism and then you lean back with a :smug: look on your face. Retards can, will, and have lapped this up with no further critical thought.

At this point the protests are just a temper tantrum from people who believe that if they make a big enough fuss their problems will go away.

There was a time where protests were a warning of being lynched by a mob if nothing is done.

Protesting is hardly effective in an atomized society where the majority of communication and propaganda happens online. Its a relict from the 19th century that was misused in the 20th century to legitimate top down policies by pretending that the issues were bottom up legitimated due to "masses" of people taking it to the street. In todays information bubbles, as this no Kangs clown show and as well the Pro-Fentanyl Wendys burner riots show, taking this this forum, xitter and other social media platforms as an example, are either ignored by the majority of bubbles or mocked. The only demographic still giving a damn about protesting pretending to show legitimization for an issue are *drum role* Boomers and retarded X stuck in the 90s
