Again with the short notice. Y'all, people have jobs, people have families. Arrangements have to be made and contingencies have to be planned. Where will you stay? What if you get arrested? Who's going to watch your kids?
If you want good participation, especially with such high numbers, you can't just give people two weeks notice.

tbf, I've been hearing April 5th for over a month now, but it still doesn't change the fact that without a highly coordinated movement, these protests aren't going to get close to the desired effects

If you can't be one of the tens of thousands of people coming out, you can do your part online. Or at the very least, prep your family the best you can.

Thanks. I'll try to keep up on the happenings so I can be more prepared.

Did they even bother to send an evite or do they expect you to add it to your calender yourself?
-
Betcha they haven't even thought about finger foods. This is bullshit.

You lads are hilarious. Can I have the day off to protest the fascist oligarch boss? Please?
-
Do you understand that there are no protections for workers here? I mean, the OP of this thread is just looking for reasons to removed (this is assist not the first time this protest date has been announced), but in case you're not American, people can and absolutely do get fired for taking a day off work. And our health insurance is tied to our jobs. I'm not saying everything needs to be handed to us on a silver platter, but your comment belongs on Reddit. Let's try NOT to feed into their breeding of hate amongst ourselves. Or go removed about the Americans WHO DO NOT WANT THIS somewhere else, you have plenty of places to do that.

Still mindblowing every time I see it.

Give it a year or so. People aren't feeling it so much yet.

That's why there are limited numbers. The solution is simple, get rid of the restrictions that stop most people. Once enough people lose their job and have their family in danger, they'll protest. They'll do more than protest.
If he cuts social security enough, he might generate the same impulse from seniors who have the time, and the ones who are able will show up quite livid. I don't think he realizes that you can't push people all the way and not have consequences, you do have to keep some semblance of bread and circus intact for control.

No shit add the cost of trying to get to DC in their as well. Why do they keep doing it this way? Most of us all living pay check to pay check. Can't do this.
-
Someone else suggested sponsoring someone (maybe someone you know). Not a bad idea, if people can't make it.
-
-
Honestly this wasn't even close to enough of a heads up. We need a 2 month notice of a day to just get this done.
-
That's the only reason I'm not attending, I don't have anyone to watch my kids that weekend and it would be irresponsible to bring a 6 year old to something that could break into violence so easily. One cop or bad actor who pushes the crowd wrong...
I wish I could be there, but instead I'm going to teach my kids about what's going on and why the protests are happening. With video, if I can find any livestream of it.

fuck yeah, these guys are killing it.
coupled with all the judges and lawyers, all the executive orders they're managing to stop is pretty great.
will of the people with legitimate political act action.
-
you have my support once again but y'all really need to start doing long-term encampments of DC in particular
-
Y'all? Be the change. I'll fucking join you.
-
-
What? Where?? Besides DC. Where do I go in Alabama? What is this?
-
Every state capitoI, at noon local time.
-
See you there!
-
-
-
What exactly are our goals in all this?
I'm not sure i want to commit to whatever this is...
-
To show that you're not okay with it and that there's many of you.
You only have to gain by going. It'll only get worse and worse as long as those fucktards are in power.

I don't think we're doing this, friend.
