I showed up like an hour and a half late to my first protest in 3, maybe 4 years. Tiny Toese of Patriot Prayer fame showed up with an amp, a bullhorn, and a grip of fucking goons and started trolling and everyone kinda just left. I almost squared up with one of them (it's good I did not, because they love to instigate fights and then just deploy mace). I screamed at them and kinda made a fool of myself.

When I first got there though there was a guy from PSL gathering like an email list or whatever and I told him I was interested in joining, and filled in the "I'm interested in joining" box.

The protest I went to today was fairly small with a somewhat larger gusano counterprotest. We were louder, they had bigger flags and extremely cringe chants. "Thank you bibi", "regime change now" and the like. PSL was by far the biggest org there, which really helped the messaging stay clear and made outreach easy. We also made good inroads with the local muslim community
