Liberals are still reeling from the election results. They’re having trouble entering into the fifth stage of grief, acceptance. They’re not letting this go. First they whined about Russia. Then they whined about the voting machines. Then they whined about recounts. Then they whined about so-called fake news. Then they whined about the popular vote. (To be fair, they’re still whining about most of those things.)
Cue human meatloaf, Michael Moore.
He still can’t wrap his mind around the fact that Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton handily, so he’s decided to channel his rage by rallying the base. Sure, Rosie O’Donnell has called for liberals to record themselves shouting, “NOT MY PRESIDENT” during Trump’s inauguration, but Moore wants them to take it a step further. The blubbering idiot is calling on millions of protesters to flood D.C. on Inauguration Day and cause mayhem.
He lists off five things liberals must do this week (they’re pretty run-of-the-mill), but I want to focus on #4.
4. MAKE PLANS NOW TO BE AT THE INAUGURATION WEEKEND PROTESTS! We need millions in the streets in DC — and that’s what it looks like it’s shaping up to be. The big march will be the day after the Inauguration – the Million Women March on January 21st. Click here for details https://www.facebook.com/events/2169332969958991/. On January 20th – Inauguration Day – a call has been gone out to non-violently disrupt the proceedings. Go to http://www.disruptj20.org/ and learn about civil disobedience on that day. Planes and trains are already selling out, as are hotels. Contact the above sites to get info on buses and housing (or charter your own bus from your town). Everyone who can should be there. If you can’t make it, find (or organize) a local protest in your area. Take the day off. No one should be silent that day.
As you can see, he’s directing his followers to Disrupt J20’s website. Disrupt J20’s organizing the “Festival of Resistance” the same day as Trump’s inauguration.
The DC Counter-Inaugural Welcoming Committee is organizing a Festival of Resistance on inauguration day, beginning at 12pm at Columbus Circle (in front of Union Station), and marching to McPherson Square.
This march will be fully permitted, and we are organizing marching bands, drummers, puppets, and vibrant displays of art and culture to show the diversity and power of resistance to Trump’s agenda.
We need you to come out and join us to show that we won’t back down. We’ll march in solidarity to protect our communities and reject racism, sexism, transphobia, Islamophobia, ableism, and all forms of hate and oppression.
We will resist despair and fear with hope and resistance.
Can you imagine how everyone would react if Hillary won and conservatives were planning to disrupt her coronation big day? We’d never hear the end of it.
