    Regardless of your intentions, comments like this unfortunately just make people less likely to turn out at future protest. You don’t get millions on the street all at once. It takes time to build and that energy is building. Pessimism that nothing is enough isn’t helpful

    This hundreds in just one city, as part of ongoing movements nationwide where people are just starting to learn it exists. There have also been many others today each with hundreds. This is not a concentrated protest. It takes time to get there

      I see your good intentions but you don’t have the time to wait for that momentum to build up

      Unless you are expecting to fight out of concentration camps and militarized cities

        Get to work organizing and building up protests. You want rapid growth, help the effort! None of us have to be bystanders

        Here are some upcoming Tesla Takedowns along with guides on how to organize them around if none are around you
