The Trump/Musk regime is traumatizing the economy. It is abducting innocent people and deporting some without due process to a foreign torture prison. It is dismantling essential government agencies and purging good people who’ve served them well. It is extorting universities and law firms. It has upended our status in the world. It has attacked the rule of law.
And this weekend, there’s something you can do about it.
On Saturday, April 5, thousands – maybe even millions – of people will join together in cities and towns across the country in nonviolent protest.
It’s essential that you take part, if you can. Sign up now. Tell your neighbors. Tell your friends.
The event, called “Hands Off!”, was launched by Indivisible, but now has over 200 organizational partners including MoveOn, the Working Families Party, 50501, Common Cause, Public Citizen, the ACLU, and the AFL-CIO.
Is it just my impression or is this another protest with a short notice? I think it’s really important to let people properly plan ahead and be involved before going to the streets.
I think I first saw it mentioned about a month ago. I think there’s about 1 protest planned per month from the 50501 and Indivisible groups. There’s also a “continuous” protest in DC starting on May Day. Seems like there are TeslaTakedown protests every week in my area (though quite small).
Thanks. I guess I’m just too isolated from mainstream communication.
It’s quite telling that the first sentence is about the economy, and the second one is about the people who’s lives are actively being destroyed, many of whom are American citizens being deported illegally.
The reality is that more people care about the economy because it affects them directly.
I mean, it’s good that you do stuff… but seriously guys, how the fuck do you STILL manage to put the economy in first place?
Because “the economy” is the single most cited reason that anyone votes for anything in this dump.
Desperately trying to get people to care, I guess?
