Where: Pathways to Power AND Rally @ Boston Common—Proudly display your amazing signs, flags (no poles, please!), and your most creative protest attire as you make your way to Boston Common from 1-2 p.m. Let’s show the world what patriotism really looks like by filling the sidewalks. Consider getting off the T a few stops early to extend this visibility walk! 2-4 p.m. Rally @ Boston Common.

When: 1-4pm (1-2 Pathways to Power march, 2-4pm Boston Common)

Anyone have good sign ideas? I was considering just listing people murdered by ICE. Something I read claimed connecting potential dictators' actions with overthrowing democracy was a key, so maybe quoting Anne Frank or drawing comparisons to Stalin/Hitler.

"we need their help."

We can't help you grow some balls.
Another problem with your awful country is most desire no more than to go back to the situation it was before.
An awful imperialist warmongering country that also put kids in cages and deported (even more) poor people.
Only difference, they didn't bother the white americans.
So no.

Darn, France said “no”. They were so helpful back in our first revolution…

They were imperialists helping you figh imperialists competing with them. Who knew you would turn out to become the worst imperialists on the planet.
It's better for the planet if you were gone. ASAP

See? This is the kind of French motivational pep talk we need! Thank you, France!

I'm not French, Belgian.
But it could be the opinion of pretty much anywhere in the world.

Ah, Belgium, famous for not colonizing any places like Congo.

yawn, invariably they have to mention this 1 lame whataboutism that pales into insignificance to your cancer country from ages ago
Probably had to look it up since you barbarians probably don't know where Belgium is
