Nails Nathan: Protests have been happening, they’ll continue to happen, and the SCOTUS decisions will be protested, but you’re not the protest leaders. It’s not some tap to be turned off and on at whim.

Yeah it’s bad enough without people who’ve been pretty dismissive of protest during this administration, just weeks ago, turning around and demanding people take to the streets now

Protests have been happening, they’ll continue to happen, and the SCOTUS decisions will be protested, but you’re not the protest leaders. It’s not some tap to be turned off and on at whim.

It’s kind of wild to witness cause clearly the idea that they’d be the decision makers on when protests are appropriate has also fueled a lot of the politics and policy responding to protests around Gaza and *importantly* previous protests against the Supreme Court.

Cop City protesters being charged as terrorism, with people supporting them charged with conspiracy was the time to speak up for protests.

Cops murdered a peaceful protestor and the reaction of the majority was a shrug.

It's wild to pivot from charging students with crimes for protesting genocide last week and blasting people for "disrupting" pride matches to chastising us for not doing enough taking to the streets to save the country. Like, what?

they're just finding another way of blaming the victims and washing their own hands of any blame
