    Protests are meaningless. Tech bro CEOs and their President will keep pushing until people push back.

    Slavery wasn’t ended with protests.

    Hell, an awful lot of people had to fight and die for an eight hour workday and basic safety protections.

      Protests organize people to fight for more

      A hell of a lof of people just signed up to do work with groups like Indivisible who are putting in the less flashy work

      Protests are a first step, not a last

      Never push people not to protest. It makes connections that are needed when shit gets bad. Friends networks and plans are the lifeline in these situations
