I was at the protest (there was a Palestine protest in DC the same day, stumbled upon the lib one on accident)

I saw pro USAID posters, pro NATO, pro Ukraine, pro Kamala, so much #resist and #vote bullshit too.

The demographic was also just old women with witty signs. I saw one lib wearing a sign that had a QR code titled "Anti-Trump Limericks (18+)".

Meanwhile the pro-Palestine protest had demographics from all over, PSL ran the show. Multiple guest speakers, we walked to the ICE building and DHS cars parked outside were vandalized and their tired were slashed.

Just two completely different movements and I don't think the libs will ever be radicalized enough to a point we could rely on them for anything.

Look, a sign showing Dr*mp in a diaper! Diaper Dr*mp - I love it!

behold, the height of liberal political art: body-shaming Trump instead of criticizing his actual policies

I genuinely thought I stumbled upon a group that was serious about doing something (majority queer and poc), and they ended up holding call your reps parties and doing peaceful orange man bad marches . Really tired of hearing “don’t let perfect be the enemy of good” rhetoric coming from the people who believe that performative disgust is a useful tool.

The DNC have these people placated beyond belief
