"Peaceful protests have proved time and time again they do nothing”

And yet, during the 60s and 70s, peaceful protests made a huge difference. Honestly, who cares what Trump and MAGA care about? They are willing to strip people of their livelihoods, their retirements, their jobs, their health, their farms that generations of their family have worked. The richest country in the world has decided to discontinue funding to the most vulnerable people in their society… why?? Hungry children? Disabled veterans? The poor? The disadvantaged? How the fuck can you justify that?! How can people NOT protest?
