User name does not check out, "Oldsoulhippie". "These damn libs be protesting Nazis", old grumpy man noises ๐Ÿ˜‚. Better than running people over, or attacking governors like the Republicans do. It's peaceful and makes people feel better while the Nazis are in charge. Why's it matter?

Why is it being "peaceful" a good thing if you believe they're literal Nazis? Were the allies wrong to take military action in WWII? The Trump government is doing actual, physical, direct violence to the most vulnerable people in America and you're glad that people have come up with something that makes them feel like they're "fighting back" without causing even the most depraved of their stormtroopers even a moment's inconvenience. They don't even need to ACKNOWLEDGE this. It's the most pathetic, toothless thing imaginable.

Now personally I recognise that peaceful "protest" that doesn't even cause minor inconvenience to your target is pointless. Worse than pointless - it makes people feel like they've achieved something when what they've done is something that trump et al. can simply ignore with zero repercussions. If you're trying to change things, what's the point of taking an action that won't l, and can't, cause any change? God, you would have loved Neville Chamberlain.

The nazis were also in charge before the election
