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’s a tactic, ya know why the Media in America is so right leaning?

      It’s because back in the 9/11 days, the War Mongering Right learned that all they had to do was accuse the media of having a “Liberal Bias”, and making “Liberal Media” a slur that no Media Company wanted to be accused of… So they created a new standard where no matter what bad is done, the victim was “Even more wrong or just as”, same with oppoisition parties, etc.

      It’s why CNN was branded the “Clinton News Network” until they became Fox News 2.0 during 2016, because the tactic worked the first time.

      Just claim you’re being silenced and “Just want fairness”, and people will shout your message from the rooftop… Unless you’re actually being silenced and just want fairness.
