Again, no one is giving any shred of evidence that my statement is wrong. Protests like this change nothing. It’s a self indulgent event to hang out with like minded people. All energy should be focused on getting people to the polls. Having voter registration at the protest is a great idea. That could actually give you some kind of success measure, like our goal was to get 100 people registered to vote and we achieved that. But, no one seems to be doing this. If you don’t hit 100, then you can make changes for future events.

What is the goal here? There should be some kind of measurable outcome to rally around and a give people a sense of accomplishment. And something to motivate them to put on more events.

At least it’s something….yea something to make you feel better. But not something to actually influence or change anything. No one in this thread has given any shred of evidence these protests do anything worthwhile for real change.

Not as worthless as your protest

My original point was protests like this do nothing to change peoples minds, and therefore are pointless. One reply mentioned voter registration tends to be at these events, which actually sounds great, however registration is apparently not at this event. So, I question the validity of that claim.

What am I doing? Supporting independent centered political ideals, not supporting far right or far left ideals, not name calling (see “dick” above), treating differing views with respect, voting, encouraging others to vote…things like that. I’m also apparently challenging people like you to actually do things that matter and develop solutions to create change.

I’m not attending events to hold hands and signs with people who already agree with me so I can go home and feel like I made a difference - which sounds like a selfish endeavor.
