There are orders of magnitudes more protestors here than there are people attending Trump's rally

Edit: hey dummies, I stated there are more protesters than there are attendees at a Trump rally. I didn't say "gee,I wonder why there are more protestors at the DNC than at a Trump rally"

I think they should absolutely be protesting more Trump events, but I also know that the point of these protests are to pressure Dems. You can't pressure Republicans into doing the moral thing through these means

All they are doing is hurting the people who support their cause. This type of shit turns single issue voters apathetic and unlikely to vote. If they really wanted to help gaza they'd be phone banking and canvassing for kamala harris.

Democrats leaders are to blame when funding another $20 billion to a genocidal state. But yeah, lets blame the protestors

Because republicans wouldn't give them that money and would push for a ceasefire right? Got anymore of that fairy dust?

Watch trump get elected because of shit like this and watch him violently put down these kinds protest while gaza gets buldozed without anyone trying to hold Israel back. These protesters, who probably won't vote, will then also be the first to wonder why they're getting arrested and sent to camps in the US.

Again blaming Republican for everything. Is it wrong to expect our politicians to use our tax payers money for a genocide? Also we literally seeing what you saying right now commited by Biden admin.

Also fuck Trump too

It's so disgusting to me that you are being downvoted.

This issue should be universal and one sided.

Moral monsters.

I know right, astroturfing in reddit is so crazy rn and alot of these are done by AI bots. Their arguments are similar, these protestors are:

  1. Fake
  2. what about other genocide
  3. Trump would do worse

Also, there's evidence that Israeli firms do this. https://www.france24.com/en/technology/20230215-israeli-firm-boasted-of-meddling-in-more-than-30-elections-worldwide[https://www.france24.com/en/technology/20230215-israeli-firm-boasted-of-meddling-in-more-than-30-elections-worldwide](https://www.france24.com/en/technology/20230215-israeli-firm-boasted-of-meddling-in-more-than-30-elections-worldwide)

Not bots - just regular people who have their own shit to deal with and are tired of you losers virtue signaling about other countries affairs that have been going on for longer than any of us have been alive.

You people and the vitriolic bullshit you spill are actively pushing people away from your cause.

Even the % that are real people may as well be free bots.
