The lady who showed up in a Hand maid's Tale outfit...

Chefs kiss on the details! She stayed until the very end standing on her own on the side of the road. I applaud your dedication and determination on this cold&windy day! She had a sign that said "What's next?"

Wish i knew how to put the pic i have on here..

I met a guy on the Romeo Mi bridge with a Canadian flag and he was not Canadian but was supporting them! We had a nice talk eh?

Seen about 200 protestors give or take on Gratiot and Shields. Proud of you all. Good job!

Proud of you all! Thanks for the support.

Hopefully we can mitigate this dumpster fire in the white house. Unfortunately it may take until mid term to start to make a change.

I've lived all over the country. When I say "lived", I mean being an actual resident. Wyoming, Colorado, Idaho, California, Georgia, Texas, and Michigan. Born in Washington and raised in Utah. I know there are more but I don't recall at the moment. I also lived in many different cities in most of them. This is all to say that I've never seen more Reich-wing lunatics in one tiny little town. Not even in northern Idaho! Port Huron is crawling with racists and fascists. I'm sure that's not a surprise to anyone at the rally. I am genuinely surprised there were this many people in attendance and it gives me a sliver of hope.

I couldn’t agree more. I went to school in Port Huron and I’m so glad I left. If I never go back to Poho it will be too soon.

u/HostileRespite 22h ago

It's a cute little town on the face of it, but then you hear a guy going off about the benefits of eugenics at the Bob Evans. You'd think I'd hear that crap in a southern state like Florida or Texas. Perhaps northern Idaho. Never heard someone genuinely extol the "science" of eugenics in any other part of the country. I've heard a lot of other racist crap, sure, but hard core eugenics? That's all PoHo.

Then don't get me started on the corrupt AF Nazi regime running the city. OMG

There were maybe three or four Trump drones there.

If you want to see far right, try my native Indiana, where people vote straight R "'cause mah daddy an' grandaddy did!"

I'm not joking.

Oh yeah, I know. I dated a cop from Muncie... long long ago in a time far far away.

u/SqnLdrHarvey 16h ago

My mother was from New Castle, not far from Muncie.

What are you protesting again?

u/SqnLdrHarvey 1d ago
  • Fascism
  • Dictatorship
  • An unelected bureaucrat gutting SS
  • An unelected bureaucrat gutting VA

There's four to start with.

I have a life, protesting fascism as is my right, which I defended for 23 years.

You?

Fascism, an unelected bureaucrat gutting Social Security and the VA, and a five-time draft-dodging puke threatening war with allies.
