I don't care if this has been posted multiple times, it needs to be spread far and wide. There is a high possibility antifa is actively planning violent riots disguised as trump supporters. Do not go to these riots, spread peace and unity from your computer. Stay at your homes, spread the word for peace, grab some popcorn, and watch the show.

EDIT: To all you bastards who are saying fuck you I have the right to protest, go ahead if you must it is after all our constitutional right. All I am saying is I think it would be wise to reserve our emotions for a little while longer and hold out until after all this boils over. After the inauguration perhaps then it may be a better time to reassess our options, right now it is very clear the military is in control of Washington DC. Lets allow them to do their jobs and see what happens.

Honestly, the whole concept of mass "protests" is idiotic and should be left to the leftists. Any protest is a target for leftist violence-inciters. And swarming in the streets chanting slogans doesn't persuade anyone to change their minds about any political viewpoints.

"Keyboard warriors" are important, but we also need to get out and do specific, constructive things to change the political mess our country is in, and to change people's thinking by direct conversation. Know your facts, and be ready to strike up a friendly, informative chat with anyone you bump into anywhere.

Standing in a checkout line at a store? Start chatting with the people next to you, first about mundane, common-ground stuff, like the slow-moving line or the beautiful weather, or the silly celebrities on the magazine covers on the rack. Then take any opportunity to gently steer the conversation to politics. You don't have to try to turn a zealous leftist into an enthusiastic Trump supporter -- just plant a seed of doubt that Trump supporters are horrible hateful people. You don't have to turn a passive fence-sitter into an intensely focused MAGA activist -- just give them a little more confidence that they know some pro-MAGA facts, so they'll go home and be likely to mention their new "Did you know that ___" to their family and friends.

And for more direct action, find out how to connect with people on the ground in your town/county/state, who are serious about getting MAGA candidates elected, getting corrupt officials (elected and appointed) out of office, cleaning up voter rolls, changing state laws to improve election integrity, and ensuring enforcement of existing election laws.

Rallies are great. Protests are just a dangerous waste of time and energy.

I totally agree with you actual word of mouth is far more effective than plucking keys behind a computer screen. I think now than ever really, I think in the coming days this will be important.
