Where are you? Are you doing anything at all? Is commenting on Hacker News and taking a paycheck and maybe donating to some politicians all you're willing to do?
I think you're being disingenuous with this sort of definition gerrymandering. "No Kings" is obviously a demand to stop the authoritarian behavior.
A simple "demand" against this political administration is a waste of time.
Research shows nonviolent protests are more effective.
As a resident of MN I'm very proud of what fellow Minnesotans did to stop ICE's violent and illegal detentions here. Unfortunately the non-violent protest and anti-ICE techniques were met with violence from ICE, but the protests themselves were non-violent and well organized.
as were the protests in the 60s. violent uprisings give greater permission for violent suppression. nonviolent protests that are met with violence draw greater scrutiny. the american behemoth rarely turns quickly.
