Why Protest? " Because ever since I was a baby crawling around the TV set i've been suckered, lied to and propagandized. The kind of psychological abuse i've been subjected to may not be as bad as sexual abuse but, believe me, it leaves lifelong scars nonetheless. I feel empty, soulless, mindfucked...and now its payback time." - Adbusters

The Rican wrote:the 60's were great, people were awakened or whatever but, they did not accomplish anything. not a godamn thing got done, those protests were just a few reasons to get together and get high. protest is a right, and god bless all of you that do it. but it's a sham, you were told that if you protest, people with authority will listen. that's not true, no one has or ever will listen to you. what you need to do is threaten the political structure by runing for office on your own premise, not taking any money from corporations, by making the demo/republi monster the minority. when you take over the school board, the city council, the state representative seat, and the state senator seats, they'll notice.


my personal take on protest.

But atleast you get your voice out there. The sad part, is that very little politicians actually listen.

it's like talking to trees.

it might work, but there's no real evidence that it does.

Yes there is. Talking to plants blows Carbon Dioxide in their direction which is obviously needed in photosynthesis. Our last biology lab was based on that concept.


Besides, if no one protested would anyone other then white males have any rights?

A much more fun thing to do it to proptest/fauxtesting.

That's going to a protest and protesting something entirely random. Like going to a lesbian rally and protesting Robosexual rights or something stupid like that.
