I messaged everyone I know locally today to try and get a band of even 2-3 people to just hold up a sign at an intersection or something in response to what is happening with Venezuela. Not one person would go with me. I emailed my local DSA weeks ago to prepare for things and never got a response from them either.

It's short notice so I didn't have huge expectations, but I know some of these people aren't busy. They just don't care anymore. Got burnt out over the last couple years.

So tomorrow I'll be out alone. I know I shouldn't let it get to me, but fuck.

don't call it a protest call it networking.

what have american protests accomplished in the last 25 years? Chauvin's conviction?

I wouldn’t be too hard on them. Their heart is in the right direction and most likely feel helpless with what they can do.
