On Inauguration Day, January 20th, people from across the country will come together in Washington, D.C., to demand a future that centers the needs of the people over the interests of the wealthy elite. With voices raised for workers’ rights, immigrant rights, and environmental justice, we will call for an end to the genocide in Gaza, the U.S. war machine, and the rule of billionaires.

The People’s Forum Palestinian Youth Movement • ANSWER Coalition • US Palestinian Community Network • Jill Stein • Claudia De La Cruz • Rev. Graylan Hagler • Artists Against Apartheid • Bangladeshi Americans for Political Progress • Chris Smalls • Rowan Blanchard • CODEPINK • Damayan • Diaspora Pa’lante Collective • IFCO/Pastors for Peace • Los Angeles Tenents Union • Nodutdol • Palestinian Feminist Collective • Union de Vecinos

    Mostly vibing, but be serious: even if this is legit—and hell, especially if this is legit—you don't think going to it won't get you on some list?

      Well, don’t go to any protests/events or don’t join any orgs then if you don’t want to end up on a list of some sort. lol

      I mean the people involved in this like The ANSWER Coalition have been putting on large scale protests since the Iraq War, so this ain’t some amateur lib nonsense.

        I mean, I get that, I do, but this is just too close to being the left version of January 6th. When chuds do that, the cops look the other way. But a bunch of socialists show up for inauguration day? 100% chance people will get hurt at this. Claudia and Jill have my blessings, and damn, god bless them for doing this knowing what's coming, but not me. I guess I'm a chicken shit.

      Anyone who does anything will be on a list. Mutual Aid people in SoCal are monitored by sheriffs. Doesn’t mean it’s not worth doing
