Different protest? My post was about all of the summer protests. Reading is fundamental: Quote Ah, protest season... the weather is nice, and college kids are out of school. The ones who major in things like gender studies and French literature don't have internships, so they need something to do. Thankfully, a bunch of progressive, anarchic NGOs organize and fund protests against... whatever, doesn't matter, the omnicause$#@! to keep them busy and feeling like they are contributing to society. I expect a lot of such "organic" protests this summer. The gubment money spigot is turning off on these NGOs, and they need to create a feeling of chaos and despair to goad caring people like Gutter to donate to their worthwhile cause.

You clearly can't identify facts. That being said, I worded that poorly. I meant to imply that people participate because they have nothing better to do (a continuation of the jobless college kid theme), not that the NGOs are trying to keep them busy.

You have been fooled again, and like all of my great questions, liberals cannot answer it. The Democrat Party has become the party of the wealthy and those facts cannot be denied: 65% of Americans who make over 500K a year are Democrats 9 of the 10 richest Counties in America all vote Democrat 75% of donations from Silicon Valley and Hedge funds are for Democrats 95% of donations from the top 3 Management consulting firms are for Democrats Wall Street picked Democrats for the last 3 election cycles Democrats have more Billionaires in total than Republicans. 76 Billionaires came out in support of Kamala while only 49 came out in support of Trump So when liberal cucks like ghey_artest, gas, zsazz, squidtard and many others come out and gaslight and lie about who "the rich" support, let's make sure we point out who "the rich" are actually supporting.
