      Protests against the second Trump administration

      Gaza war protests in the United States

      2025 United States protests against mass deportation

      United States abortion protests (2022–present)

      United States racial unrest (2020–2023)

      These are just the protests. Note that all these links list multiple, recent protests, which actually get media attention on things.

      If you want the stuff that the media doesn’t tend to cover as well, you have to look hard (and maybe deal with a paywall and local reporting and realizing that what makes the news isn’t all that’s happening): ICE raid in Rochester stymied as 2 workers evade arrest, 200 residents protest

      Well since local media aren’t covering them and many foreign ones step in line to not upset lord trump, the only way to get examples is to attend them.

      The cities he sent military to were the cities that had largest protests.

          So, guaranteed death? USA will not use billy clubs and shields to knock down protesters. They will SHOOT and kill.

          I’m not dying because we have 80 million retarded cunts here.

            People are already DYING, what bodycount can your conscience hold?

            Oh and did you miss all the students who were shot and killed in Nepal? You can find videos of them bleeding out in the streets with people desperately trying to save them, kids dying in school uniforms as they protest, but sure billy clubs.

              Dude, there’s no way you can argue your way into making someone feel bad for not wanting to risk their life in a violent resistance against their own government.

              That’s a choice every person have to make for themselves. You don’t know them. You don’t know their situation.

              You seriously need to take a step back and sit down.

              Are you just going for a shock reaction, or are you seriously trying to neg other people into dying for you?

                I’m trying to convince Americans to do something to stop their fascists from killing people. I’m not there, I can’t support in any other way.

                  So you’re the very definition of a keyboard warrior, but for some reason you get to decide that things like ‘protesting’ aren’t doing enough, and to demand accountability for us not dying in your place.

                    No a keyboard warrior would be someone trying to act tough by threatening or abusing you, the whole “I’d kick your arse if you were here saying that to my face” shtick.

                    And to demand Americans stop America from killing innocent people? Yeah the fucking audacity of me right.

            Setting things in fire, erecting barricades, actively fighting authorities and creating chaos, making it impossible to ignore. For examples see the Maiden revolution in Ukraine, Hong Kong protests a few years ago, or any Tuesday afternoon in France.

              Orange revolution and Euromaidan in Ukraine were peaceful protests the government responded violently to them which energized more people.

              In Poland Solidarity also was peaceful and the one that created violence was the government.

              Historically peaceful protests like the above are more effective, because more people are willing to join them.
