      Who spoke at the protests you went to?

      Every time i go out the protests are totally organized by local neoliberals that are funded by neoliberal PACs.

      Obviously if you were going to try to control an originality grassroots movement then you wouldn’t show who gives money to the event organizers.

      Dems have been playing the role of controlled opposition to Republicans my entire life. And considering the situation with David Hogg i don’t think they’re changing plans anytime soon.

        State officials, survivors of school shootings (speaking for gun control, naturally), and immigrants fleeing war overseas. We also had a rock band whose name I didn’t catch.

        When party leaders/elected officials speak at rallies, it’s proof that there’s a conspiracy?

        That’s amazingly soft, living up to your handle there.

          When only leaders from a specific political party are allowed to have control or speak then yes that’s a conspiracy.

            I’m sorry, you’re asking for what now? Should we be inviting Kristi noem at the next rally? I’m thinking she might decline…

            Or were you looking for someone libertarian?

              They can allow someone under the age of 40 to forward their own ideology besides Neoliberalism, yes that’s what me and everyone under the age of 40 are asking for yes

                Feeding the troll, and probably whatever algorithm you’re feeding my responses into, but where the hell has it ever been said that they’re preventing people under 40 from talking?

                  I’ve gone to every protest so far in my city and that’s how it has played out every time.

                  I’m usually one of the youngest people at the protest by at least 15 years.

                  Maybe go to one and you will see the demographics for yourself.

                  I’m done talking with you

        This isn’t reddit, you’re going to have to do better than this. Upvotes/downvotes brigading doesn’t have the same effect here either.
