Not that you want/need an academic article on this, but I have done some theory work w/ a colleague to try to break academics out of this habit of equating reactionary activism/protest that defend a status quo w/ traditional social movements that challenge them.

Also, beyond the "content" (so to speak), can it be a protest if it advocates for something that's already the status quo?

And they weren't protesting anything because what they want is already in process & underway backed by governments.

You are a Trump supporter. You are supporting the genocide that Trump wants.

Meanwhile, if you vote for Democrats, they do exactly opposite of what they said they would do.

Exactly, Biden can stop sending Israel money and weapons. Biden can ask for sanctions on the Israeli government

I can only hope we can overcome their influence as a voting block, I'll do my best to get anyone else past her in the primaries.
I don't vote for cops or Israel supporters though, so if that's what happens they can have fun with that. I'll focus on local things instead.

No. We can't.
They're installing Elissa Slotkin.
"Slotkin was recruited into the Central Intelligence Agency after graduate school. Fluent in Arabic and Swahili, she served three tours in Iraq as a CIA analyst."
It will only be worse.

If Biden believes in democracy then why won’t he do what 80% of Dem voters want him to do? #CeasefireNow

My Representative and Senators are completely ignoring me, and are losing my vote. Usually I get a form letter that doesn't address why I wrote; on this subject, silence.

Isn’t Michigan a swing state? You would think if Democrats don’t want to lose, they would be more responsive to their constituents

Neither of my Michigan senators have sent any responses and I've emailed them almost daily for a month now.
My rep sent one response at the beginning blaming it on Egypt and then nothing since.

I noticed I wasn't able to contact my reps when I called, it went to voicemail, which didn't pick up.

The Zionist regime’s genocidal actions have been stopped before by one phone call from a U.S. president. Educate yourself or shut the fuck up.

Direct quote from Israeli Defense Minister:"The Americans insisted and we are not in a place where we can refuse them. We rely on them for planes and military equipment. What are we supposed to do? Tell them no?” Quote is from www.thenation.com/article/arch...

One phone call from Regan stopped Israeli atrocities in 1982, yet you believe this bullshit?

That video of Biden, saying, “no, there’s no possibility [of a ceasefire]” Certainly has me questioning my allegiance to the Democratic Party

I keep hearing about how Dems support democracy, if that’s so then you’d think they’d do what 80% of Dem voters want them to do #CeasefireNow #VoteBlue

The people of Ohio should reflect on the fact that two thirds of the state supports abortion rights while two thirds of its elected representatives oppose them. That’s prima facie evidence of gerrymandering. DOJ should challenge their state LD maps in Federal Court based on these results.
