Why should these correlate?
It doesn’t show correlation. They’re probably making a point about priorities, because it shows more people attend furry conventions over the course of a year than ICE protests.
One of those is proven to be safe and the other is not
Absolutely correct. I made the graph out of a joke and did not expect the result. A lot of US people still believe that what they are doing is “heavily protesting the government”.
And how did you define "ICE protest"? We had 8 million at No Kings in one day last year, funny how that isn't in your cherry picked graph.
lmao, I know that education is bad, but at least try to read and understand that graph, where it clearly says those are ICE protests, so your allegation of me cherry picking is simply stupid. And if you believe that No Kings was about protesting ICE, then you most likely did not even understand the message you want to transmit to your government
The No Kings protests grew a large number of participants, because US people love to walk around with cardboard signs together with friends. After the protests, everybody went home happy and the next day everything was as if nothing happened.
Just another one believing you are heavily protesting your government while the rest of the world is laughing at you.
Its not correlation, it's causation.
furries are the opiates of the masses
