    It’s not helpful for recruiting. Most people get over stimulated in large crowds and experience short term memory retention and cognitive fatigue. They may agree with everything you said in that moment and the brain filters it out shortly afterwards. Baby leftists have been chasing liberals at these type events for the years with no progress.

      So, it’s for socializing, but also most people get over stimulated in large crowds? I suspect, then, that you must experience extreme difficulty in recruiting.

      What does a protest look like to you? Clearly, this one is for baby leftists, whatever that is, but you must have an idea of what a protest is, then.

        I’ve been doing it since Ronald Reagan and ACTUP, so I’ve got quite a bit of experience on what works and what doesnt

          Okay, what is a protest to you? I’m not sure what you want out of a protest?

            A protest has demands, the type of actions they want to see as a result of protesting. There needs to be the threat of consequences. There needs to be a disruption of the status quo and an inconvenience to society that can’t be ignored. And by no means can the cops be on your side

              I don’t see how that doesn’t include No King’s. Unless you have some more definitions for threats of consequences. Because a bunch of people showing up somewhere is, by its nature, both disruptive and consequential, and it does have a list of demands. Plus, I don’t really think the cops being on your side or not is necessary for a protest, since the police can also protest, even if it’s for a cause you don’t agree with.
