Ikr? Those protestors really went out of their way (on their day off) to really stick it to trump (who was happily playing golf). Goes to show how ineffective and purely symbolic these protests are.

So we should continue wasting time, effort, and energy to NOT pose as any threat? So what's the point?

If you want to piss off a Sociopathic Oligarch, then protest at their place of business. Block their entrances, interrupt the flow of business, make it difficult to do business, inconvenience their employees, irritate their neighbors, embarrass them to their neighbors, etc.

So how does gathering outside the White House or town halls move us towards this goal?

Then why aren't you being downvoted to oblivion?

Touche. Perhaps I figure that we'd already be at that stage by now, considering how broad the consensus is about who the villains are. Considering the crime that Luigi is unjustly taking the fall for, and how uniting across the board that was, I figured that was less a seed being planted and more a full grown tree bearing fruit.

Why all these marches in areas that these oligarchs don't care about? Why not their mansions?

Take a guess, surely your imagination isn't limited to just "talking about it". Perhaps maybe fighting for it? Like we did with women's rights, slavery, racial discrimination, workers having weekends, they all changed from people talking about it AND fighting for it.

Perhaps it's high time to go beyond talking about it.
