And it's working. We are all staying home because we don't want them to say mean things about us. Meanwhile we should be flooding the streets.

Yep. You can’t even want peaceful protest without being called a “glowie”. Like I get it. No one wants to do anything stupid but this is exactly what they want. We are once again scared to death to even make our voices heard because of “optics”. Reminds me of how we acted when the lockdowns first started and look where that is now.

It's not about optics.

Say we did do a peaceful protest right now...what would that accomplish? If you wanted to show everyone that the movement is massive, and alive and well, then we already did that on the 6th. Mission accomplished.

Then there's the risk. If we did do this (pointless) protest, that gives the other side an opportunity to run false flag operations.

There are a million different ways to win. Protests are a bad strategy at this time. That could change in the future, but for now, it would be pointless at best.
