Protest organizers are also recommending that you don't lean into antifa.

Because nobody wants to be in a position to need one, no matter what the reason.

But lots of people will say they're pro-democracy and then say "Trump got elected! The people spoke!"

So yeah... I'm anti-fascist.

Mmmm...

I would say anti-fascist is better than pro-democracy (don't say antifa, it's lazy at this point). Pro abortion is dumb, though. Nobody is pro-abortion. Although I've actually had people argue with me about it. But nobody wants to have an abortion...

(genuinely not meaning to be snarky) if you can't sell and convert to money, what's the point?

The ACTUAL Dorothy Parker said all kinds of objectionable things all the time (and wrote them too).

Which isn't to say white privilege isn't a thing. As a not-famous older white woman I expect I could behave rather badly at the No Kings protest and likely NOT get shot.
