[I originally posted this in chapotraphouse, but it was deleted for being “pro-cop” even though that very much wasn’t the case. (I believe PSL was actually involved in organizing the protest if I’m not mistaken.) The mod that deleted it openly broke the sectarian rule too.]

Been seeing a lot of people hating on what the protest marshals did during the pro-Gaza protests at the DNC and I feel they definitely did the right thing. Instigating stuff like going up against the cops under the guise of “revolutionary” action just gets a lot of people arrested and doesn’t accomplish anything.

EDIT: Users who were present at the protests have said, counter to what is claimed in the screenshot, that the protest marshals did NOT call for the police. Thank you for clearing this up, comrades!

    What the hell? You provide no material argument and instead give empty snarky responses and expect them just to understand your point at all? Lazy and rude, get over yourself and stop being so easily placated by people telling you a cop and politician sanctioned parade might not have been the most effective and well planned protest, this is barely a step above the ppl running to tail ilhan omar rn god amerikkka is cooked
