    We all are. The left and the right.

    We have all been told from different sources who or what to be mad about.

    Some were so mad about contrived issues they voted in someone who campaigned on destroying the federal government.

    Others are pissed off that that person who was voted in is destroying the federal government.

    The outrage machine literally is why the fascist pig is in the Whitehouse in the first place.

    What you might be asking is why we aren’t rioting in the streets. Just know that some of us are 4 times as far from our countries capital as London is from Berlin. In a blue state, who would I be protesting to? The people who already agree with me?

      Protests don’t work if the people in power don’t care. One dude with a gun did more to shake up people in power than any recent protest has. Look how Elon wears his kids as human shields now. Protests are to bring awareness, the world is aware. We are now in need of people willing to take action.
