I've been jamming out to some old school protest music...

Is it a draft thing?

I mean, truly, if we had to reduce it to one thing....

What do y'all feel?

protesting what, exactly?

9/9/2011 4:06:22 AM

EVERYTHING, MAN!

WAR!

because there's no draft

so the only people who got shipped out are the ones who voluntarily joined the military or national guard

news media is complicit in making protestors look like criminals and thugs

police typically have a boner over the idea of being able to crack their batons over students' heads

shoulda seen the media coverage of the G20 in Pittsburgh versus reality lol

^that's a really long winded way to say that Americans are lazy and complacent

BridgetSPK are you unaware of the protesting going on in the Bay area due to the BART police violence?

search #opbart on twitter.

the national media has given pretty much zero coverage on it, but it's some seriously fucked up shit.

There is plenty of protesting in the country. Or by "us," did you mean TWW'ers?

I picketed Jesse Helms' office when I was an 18-year-old feminazi for NOW.

It was fun! I highly recommend protesting anything and everything.

No, not really. The protests are propagandized as a crowd of murderous/criminal thugs. Often the escalation of violence has been achieved by police plant (this was proven in some of the Greek riots) as a justification to crack down violently on the crowd.

When people see a bunch of punk "anarchist" kids on the news, what do you expect them to think? They're provided a remarkably limited view of the situation, believe they're "in the know", and then smugly reject any alternate perspective

yes, this

add to that that they're me-first and would only protest if they were directly impacted.

oh sure, some of them like to think they'll protest...and at first a lot did. but then they realized that it didn't really matter to them and just gave up. protesting just became passe

GTFO out of here with that media bullshit. that's just another fucking excuse not to protest. WHO CAN I BLAME FOR THE FACT I DON'T WANT TO PROTEST ANYMORE? THE MEDIA!!!!! RAWR RAWR RAWR.

^^"THE MEDIA" is more like why Middle America doesn't notice the srs bsns that people do protest about, not why some random wanker doesn't decide to get out and fly the black flag
