Idiots.
That’ll show Biden.
I wish the moderates gave a shit about protest when they’re in office.
When it’s a Republican being protested they always cheer from the sidelines and say they would be there…
But they never mention why they’re not actually there.
And when they’re in office and have a chance to actually work with protesters to address concerns, they start rambling about how it’s somehow antidemocratic and we have to shut the fuck up because protesting draws attention to the unpopular shit they’re doing.
Like, that’s the entire point of protests to draw attention to the unpopular shit our government is doing.
The moderates just forgot that what protestors are trying to do is enact change and not just hurt the poll numbers if whoever is in office currently.
All Biden has to do is listen
“I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.” - MLK, Jr. Letter from a Birmingham Jail 1963
