that they got played.
Why is a protest by a dozen people of concern anyway? You could find more people in any US city who believe that the Earth is flat, that vaccines contain microchips, or that Brussels sprouts are the work of the devil.
Better to ask where all of the protesters have gone who protested Biden/Harris before the election when they had ignored the plight of Palestinians for a decade before the election, who have not to this day protested what Saudi Arabia is doing to Yemen, and who only heard of Gaza on social media platforms owned by reich-wing techbros who are allies of Trump/Putin/Netanyahu/Orbán/Bolsonaro, etc. And don't forget to wish Happy Birthday to Putin on October 7!
