I can’t upload all the pictures and videos because they’re too big apparently! But it was fucking awesome. At least 150,000 people were there marching for Palestine and SCREAMING the “Biden, Biden, you can’t hide, you’re funding a genocide” chants. It was genuinely so hopeful and refreshing. It was made very clear that this was only the beginning of more direct action that will have consequences and force the hand of our dictators of capital. We spray painted a McDonald’s window “GAZA” (in minecraft of course) and screamed “Fuck McDonald’s” because we’re boycotting Starbucks and McDonald’s. I met a few pretty relevant tiktokers and Karina Garcia, the PSL’s presidential candidate’s VP!

Overall a fucking wonderful experience and I’m going to bring this energy back home. Like I said this is only the beginning and it really is showing some serious dedication and revolutionary intent.

Check out answercoalition on Instagram to see the size of the crowd and some of the speeches. I’ll see if I can link pictures in the comments below.

FUCK THE AMERICAN WAR MACHINE, WE WILL SEE A FREE PALESTINE AND A SOCIALIST WORLD IN OUR LIFETIME

    It seems like the contradictions are becoming too much even for the less engaged masses. They may not hold the ‘correct’ opinion but they’re more willing then ever to hear a countervailing opinion to the consent manufacturing machine

      This next election between career criminal Trump and genocidal Biden is really going to reveal to a lot of Americans just how absurd the American electoral spectacle is. It’s been absurd in the recent few cycles, but this just feels different. Feels like decades might be about to happen in weeks.
