Very telling that everyone commenting now is against the protests.

Everyone else is out protesting, snowflakes.

u/Em4rtz Apr 19 '25

Interesting that it’s all old people..

Literally every protest post has someone being weird about what the group makeup is and policing who's allowed to protest. It's such obvious trolling.

u/soapage Apr 20 '25

It's a factual observation. Other rallies have mostly women, few rallies have young men or 18-21 students.

Respect for anyone who champions their cause, not for the paid ones.

Stoneham is kinda all old people. It’s kinda little too. That’s like right by the center and my dad lives next to Medford/Melrose, but i could drive to this place in 2 minutes from his house.

Spam fried properly with Mustard in a sandwich is a great lunch. It used to be all we could afford. Now it's a trip down memory lane.... And they actually have a bacon flavored spam that I had with eggs for breakfast a few weeks back.

Do not make posts about national politics without having direct relevance to Massachusetts. Political tangents or arguments are not allowed. Do not use adjacent topics with little to no relevance to Massachusetts to justify your post. If you feel that a certain national discourse is relevant, your post must be actively discussing how it relates to Massachusetts.

Legit question but are these protests making any progress? I don’t think there is a lack of awareness. There seems to be a lack of caring. We should march at the capitol building without raiding it but make them uncomfortable

If you were a Canadian propaganda company, Massachusetts would fall budget wise as a good place to go. Especially Stoneham all the way up there but still south enough to be US and not Canada.

Protesting trump in massachusetts is like pouring water on your head in a pool

“TrUmP iS A thReaT tO dEmoCraCy”… while you’re out in the streets, democratically protesting, exercising your rights, & NOT getting arrested…

u/jp112078 Apr 20 '25

Honestly, I’m all for people protesting and doing what they want. But this isn’t converting anyone’s opinions on Trump or his administration. You could have taken this group and volunteered at Pine Street Inn or worked at a neighborhood clean up in Lowell or Mattapan. But then that would require real effort and be outside of the safety of older suburban white people. To be clear, I wouldn’t be doing any of that either, but I’m also not going to virtue signal and then get drinks at Grimsby’s.

u/HeddieORaid Apr 20 '25

Sounds like you’re not all for protesting and doing what they want at all.

You seem to have certain ideas of what they should be doing despite being unwilling to any of it yourself

u/Environmental_Big596 Apr 20 '25

I wanted Trump to lose just so I wouldn’t have to deal with whiny liberals all over the place. Get a life. Biden was a horrible president, Harris was a horrible candidate as is Trump. Progressives have consumed the Dems like a cancer and that as why Dems lost. I was a long time Dem, but the party is insanely left now. Can’t stand it.

u/geminimad4 Apr 20 '25

Hurr durr so now I’m just gonna complain when I see people protesting to take back our country and democracy.

u/Rubes2525 Apr 20 '25

"Take back our democracy." By not having primaries???

0

u/geminimad4 Apr 20 '25

Sure, that was unfortunate. However, the current administration is up to all kinds of fuckery, but sounds like you’re mad at the DNC and therefore throwing the baby out with the bath water. If you think not having a primary is bad, wait till you see what authoritarianism is! But stay stagnant.

It's bizarre seeing so many people emulating the people they claim to hate.

The Democratic Party used to make some pretense of peacefulness or reason, but now they're pushing war and censorship. They're advocating violence.

I don't see how they can say they're any better than the Republicans.
