Not effective in defeating fascism, no.
Liberals achieved their goal of taking over and deescalating any actual potential leftism , which was their actual goal.
Saying this is a pretty strong indicator of Not Paying Attention Syndrome. What "potential leftism" was derailed by these protests?
The way people on Hexbear have been talking about 50501 and No Kings and stuff couldn't make it more obvious that they've simply never bothered to engage with them to any extent. It's a bunch of fart-sniffing online "leftists" who are too cool to go to where literally millions of people are in political motion because you imagine that their politics are gross and irredeemably bad.
I'm gonna write up a separate post admonishing all you losers instead of just you in this one comment.
The anti-deportation protests that were crushed by the military had the potential to become another summer of uprisings.
Although of course the uprisings in 2020 weren't really "leftist" and were just an outpouring of outrage from the masses, and of course there is no organized left to lead the masses towards productive action, but the purpose of No Kings was certainly to help Trump prevent unrest.
Exactly this. Spontaneous, locally focused restistance to not just ICE raids but any militarised law enforcement was popping off organically with an increasing move towards organising local defense.
Then the libs come in with their Walmart & Democratic party sponsorship, turn it into a cop-friendly teaparty while actively harrassing actual organisers for things like Black Panther merch, wearing masks, or displaying keffiyehs (two of the organisers are dedicated zionists), drawing people away from the actual neighbourhoods that are in need of defense to their Instagram oppurtunities in city centres instead, before commiting to a coverup with the help of police after their armed designated 'peacekeepers' killed a protestor and tried to murder another before conspiring with law enforcement to smear him as a mass shooter and terrorist and pinning a murder charge on him.
