Right? I was about to make a snarky ass comment about putting off brunch for a day until I saw the list of people and orgs at the bottom of the poster.
Genuinely shocked that people are saying this is a lib protest. Maybe try reading who’s involved before making an “”””original”””” snarky comment.
People hate reading

Is it not a lib protest? The people protesting might not (all) be libs but I'm not sure how to distinguish the event itself
I was going to say this, at first, felt like a lib Jan 6th but looking at the names all I can say is: based and godspeed.
Good for networking if nothing else.
yeah hopefully it's not just a parade
That's pretty damn cool, some great folks involved in this. My knee-jerk reaction was to laugh it off as lib shit, but this is pretty solid
Yeah it helps when it's a bunch of people who have been protesting this whole time, rather than only showing up after the election lol
If nothing else, I'll give applause for kicking off the trump years part 2 with an actual proper protest instead of the shitlib bullshit the last time the libs had enough dry spaghetti to form a spine strong enough to hold their backs up for an afternoon before flopping back to the ground
The police state will be out in full force for this one
Yeah this one might have some teeth and resist cooption. They’ll be mask off
On a serious note, the last time Trump came to power, many protesters on January 20 2017 were arrested and faced felony charges (for kicking a trash can over). If you protest, there is a non zero chance you catch federal charges.
Don't kick the trash cans, feds hate litter.
Pick up that can
Welcome... Welcome, to city 17!
I just wanted to mention but people forum is doing a live stream kind of related to this, but kind of wrapping up at moment of typing this, but titled "Why The Democrats Failed, How Trump Won, What Is To Be Done?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQQOJjj5O9c
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Quick to haves for anyone considering going:
Non descript clothing AND a change of clothes. Go into a public bathroom when you leave and change before going home.
Reflective sunglasses, and face mask.
Leave your phone at home/hotel or atleast turn it off entirely. No airplane mode.
If traveling in for it by car park far away and walk in. Your plates will be scanned if you drive in. if taking a bus train or plane, honestly dont, but if u insist atleast do it for more than just the protest. Act like a normal tourist stay awhile go see museums etc. No ubering or rideshare to the protest.
Any purchases made at protest area need to be in cash. No cards. Dont even bring your wallet just some cash when you go. If you drop it there and your ID is in it theyll find it.
If your going with a group and are worried about being able to find eachother without phones bring walk talkies or something, and have meetup points outside the protest area to go to. On walkie talkie just say "Let's go to meetup spot A im hurt/tired/etc." No names, no Identifiable info over the open air. Buy the walkie talkies some where else with cash then throw them away after the protest in a random dumpster.
Wear gloves. A beanie too and keep all your hair under it if you can.
Most of these things are pretty cheap to add in to your plan even if inconvenient and can be the difference between you ending up on a list or not.
Also Rule #1 if it starts to get crazy, police tear gassing, rioting, etc and you arent prepared personally for that sort of thing LEAVE. Turn around, and walk away casually but quickly. If you come across police while trying to leave say "im leaving" and keep walking. If arrested say nothing. Get a lawyer. Typically if someone is leaving the police will focus on ones staying since their goal is to disperse but this isnt a rule or anything.
Good thing it hasn’t been normalized for the President elect to order 25000 troops to occupy dc on Inauguration Day. Oh wait
no more half measures walter
HE SAID THE THING
Concert has a hot lineup
Can't wait to see how many libs who said genocide doesn't matter to have been against this from the start the entire time
looking forward to seeing how libs with megaphones manage to glom onto this and derail it
Death to America
Can someone live stream it because I ain't going.
I believe Breakthrough News will most likely live stream it although it hasn’t been announced yet.
Not touching that with a 20 ft pole
Also, January 20th 2024??
Very clearly a mistake that’s been corrected in the link if you actually clicked on and read it.
deeply unserious
Has to be. Either that, or it's a fed honey pot.
How? considering some of the names on that like Claudia De la Cruz?
These people didn't read who is involved
Get your pussy hats out of storage everyone
no investigation (literally looking at the image, jesus christ) no right to post
