    I’m very out of the loop with this, I’m not from the USA. Which protests do we like, and which don’t we?

      Officials cancelled anti-Trump protests after a Democrat representative was killed. (Trump is Republican.)

        Surprisingly, I’m not really in favour of them, the handful of pics vids I’ve seen didn’t have enough context…like there are Brits that are anti Farage cause he’s not authoritarian enough.

          Oh yeah, tell me about it. You still get far-right protests against Israel where I’m from because while they like the genocide, they still hate Jews. Weird people are weird.

          This protest is pro-democracy though.

          Musk’s falling out with Farage was reportedly because he wasn’t rabidly far-right enough in the correct ways.

        I’m assuming the handmaids are the good guys too? I’ve only really seen a handful of vids and not enough to get context.

          People dressing up as handmaids from The Handmaid’s Tale are typically dressed that way as a form of protest against the conditions that would lead to Handmaid’s Tale becoming a reality. Which is typically anti-Christian nationalism but can also include anti-MAGA/Trump which …the lines there are blurry at best.
