Ml user here, I think it’s rad. Gonna radicalize the libs at my local protest with May Day history ¯_( ツ)_/¯
Like, I think the No Kings protests, for instance, while great at getting people out, struggle to give those people direction, beyond the big protest.
But any good Socialist, Communist, Anarchist, [insert preferred flavour of leftist] will know that you go where the masses are. And if the masses are at a big protest, then you go to the big protest to recruit, educate, and even just network with cool people and orgs.
Lemmy.ml: “Waah, protests don’t do anything, wake me when there’s a general strike.”
No Kings: “We’re doing a general strike.”
Lemmy.ml: “Oh, fuck, shit, I didn’t… Um… WELL SCREW YOU, YOU’RE PROBABLY GOING TO DO IT WRONG ANYWAY.”
You are not doing anything, you can’t even get something simple like a protest right
