    That’s the thing- they don’t.

    For American liberals, protesting isn’t the means, it’s the end.

    It’s their opportunity to telegraph to everyone that they’re “on the right side.” Accomplishing that and easing their guilt for doing fuck-all are the only outcomes they give a shit about.

      I agree. Though I’m not sure why I’m getting more down votes than you.

      Also a little frustrating when people leave the down vote but say nothing.
