Well political activist organizations were already banded together going to No Kings protests when those citizens were shot, for some reason we're not winning yet

I am very plugged in on the American politics, and yet I have no idea which ones you can mean. This means that either those organisations are small enough so they don't even break the local social media barrier, or they were so quiet after that, they didn't even try to do anything on any public level.
Two people were executed on the streets by the regime, and the reaction was less severe than when a shitty musician was shitty.

its likely its too small to even get bigger in the news, also because conservatives controls most of the MSM as well, it will hit the news, its all "look what trump did that make him look stupid" gaffe everyday.

i noticed after the protests, people just went home like no news after that, they treat it like they were working a shift a store, 8hrs here, 8 hrs there and then done. also these are Planned protests, so you get what you "paid for" and likely kept on a tight leash by the DNC and MSMs to not escalate further. it allows them to have release valve when something schumer-hakeems and congrees does something terrible voting with the GOP.

exactly. These peaceful protests rarely ever substantiate substantial changes. The literal largest per capita protest in american history didnt do shit.

What does this tell the americans?

[–] nullify3112@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That a protest should be a tactic, an action towards an immediate goal, and not a goal within itself.

[–] Nalivai@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And maybe, protests do very little in America because ruling class aren't afraid of the public that much

[–] UnequalExchange@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago

they should make them afraid, seeing as how they outnumber theem overwhelmingly.
