    And what I did NOT see was a clear message about what they're even protesting about. I'm a very political person, so if I have to guess,
    then everyone else has to guess also.

    Well, their side doesn't really have a platform other than "Orange Man Bad!"

    They can't claim that any of their policies work because the facts are against them.

    The last time that I saw something like this, it was a pretty pathetic thing to see. A bunch of people who obviously didn't know what they were protesting, using words they obviously didn't know what they meant. IHMO: This is where the people who live to be inflamed go. We should start handing out small bottles of asprin to them to help them with their inflammation.

    The funniest part is that the media didn't even cover it. Maybe I'm
    wrong about 10 being enough.

    The Media has their own problems and covering a pathetic "protest" will only hurt them.

    Right, but I keep an open mind. It's awkward being in such a 1/2 and 1/2 kind of environment. My people are here, somewhere, but probably at work and not 2 blocks away from the university holding signs.

    The recent Charlie Kirk vigil was proof that we exist, but it's also proof that we only congregate when it's for something positive.

    I see that too. Like a sign with the word "fascist" on it. It's a defunct
    word that has no meaning except in a historical sense. I remember learning a lot of new words when I was in college and then I used them when talking to people, and it didn't feel right. But of course the sheeple have no shame.

    It depends. For me, it's only awkward when there are animalistic Lefties "protesting" (i.e. performing). Even if someone is done up very strange, if they are nice and want to talk, we talk and talk nice.

    But that's fairly rare.

    The polarization is getting worse. The Woke don't like being around people that question their Narrative - especially when they present facts that show that their Narrative is false.

    Us normals don't like being around people who screech, bark and scream and pepper spray people who say things they don't like.

    The recent Charlie Kirk vigil was proof that we exist, but it's also
    proof that we only congregate when it's for something positive.

    Say, that our congrations are positive, unlike the Woke whose congrations turn to violence.

    I see that too. Like a sign with the word "fascist" on it. It's a
    defunct word that has no meaning except in a historical sense.

    It has meaning. But the Woke use it as a label to intimidate and shut down discussion. Because if there was discussion, they would have to acknowledge facts that prove their Narrative false.

    I remember learning a lot of new words when I was in college and then I used them when talking to people, and it didn't feel right. But of
    course the sheeple have no shame.

    Animals don't understand shame.

    But your statement brings to mind a video I saw recently that asserted that 54% of American's can't read past a 6th grade level. When you add that to the fact that most (adult) instructions are written at a college level, you start to see the problem.

    The video asserted that the people know how to read and know how to say the words, but do not understand the words and the concepts that they represent.
