    Because defending your democracy isn’t a weekend fucking sport. How many days a week are the fascists trying to tear down your democracy? Because that’s the same energy you need to bring to defend it.

      No need to come at me, the fact of the matter is the majority of people won’t take time. I take the time, but most won’t. If you want the biggest impact you’ll always draw the largest crowds on a weekend.

      I don’t disagree with you I’m just being pragmatic. A protest of 1,500 is a bigger deal than a protest of 200. That’s the typical difference in my city with weekend vs weekday protests
