This is really emblematic of the Democrats full tilt to being the party of the old order after co-opting and shutting down BLM once it was no longer useful to their immediate goals.

I wonder what can give once they completely criminalize dissent? These restored Bourbons are going to make people do stuff like banquet campaigns just to talk about soc dem stuff.

BLM, Me too, Greta thumberg before she became based, I’m sure there are more but that’s all I can think of right now

Malala, basically any LGB(notT) movement after the 2000s.

Trans movements only have a matter of time as well

Did the Dems ever even make a cynical co-op ting of trans rights? On Terf Island our bourgeois liberal parties sure as shit didn't.

Didn't think of those at first but, you're right. BLM was the best example in my mind because of all the protests it drew.
