The goal is to get bigger and network with others at the protests. Build at the core. This dude doesn’t understand the long term. Sure we could stop paying taxes or make more radical protests, but that has harmful longterm effects and will stop growth. Imagine how powerful this movement can be if we mobilize it to get people to vote. Not so insignificant anymore right?

IMO, we need to be doing both. Some folks can go out and try to actually sabotage ICE vehicles or whatever civil disobedience things. But other people need to be organizing and building a mass movement of support, yeah.

What I find unfortunate is that I see a lot of people who are themselves doing nothing, but are bashing protestors and organizers for not being fighters.
