How about we fucking organize this shit on a weekday to ACTUALLY disrupt. Know why shit was peaceful? Because the cops and corps didn’t care.
Apr 5 was a Saturday. Apr 19 was a Saturday. At least Feb 5 was a Wednesday.
Mobilization is easy. Organization is hard. Next rally/protest, get the names and numbers of 10 people and plan for real organization. Challenge them to do the same. If you get 3 who actually respond, and each of them get 3, we’ve got a REAL movement.
Do more than feel good and hold clever signs. ORGANIZE.

The problem is a lot of people work on weekdays, you can get more people on weekends. You can tell people to miss work for it, but a lot of people can’t afford to…
That’s. The. Point.
There have been protests on weekdays. The threads about those attracted concern trolls in the comments whining about how they should’ve been on the weekend because people who work for a living couldn’t attend.
There’s no winning with FUD-peddling reactionaries commenting in bad faith.
One Wednesday lost is not going to change anything. Numbers now is fine, but the threat of violence is what changes shit.
February 5th garnered complaints that it was on a weekday.
All of the most successful revolutions had slogans like “Ugh, Wednesdays, amiright?” Or “let’s wrap this up, I’ve gotta work.”
