They're not in front of the White House, they're not even in front of city hall, they're hurting their own.

The King loves it when the peasants fight amongst themselves.

They're hurting commuters from Marin county lmao. They're not fucking peasants.

As a peasant who used to spend a lot of time in Marin for work, I’m not sure what you mean by this.

I mean, the definition on Google is:

peasant (n.): a poor farmer of low social status who owns or rents a small piece of land for cultivation (chiefly in historical use or with reference to subsistence farming in poorer countries).

I'd assume they just aren't familiar with how you're using it

That's a personal problem. The demographics and political power of Marin county residents are public knowledge. I live/work in Marin county and the vast majority of residents are extremely wealthy. There are exceptions, but, as one of those exceptions, I can understand why they are blocking the golden gate bridge and won't get pissy at a group of people who have made national news with their courageous protest against genocide.

They arnt the ruling class, they are peasants and you are just angry at someone with a different outlook at you, assigning them ruling class because they dont have the exact same problems you do. this is exactly what they want you to do, attack and hate on your countrymen instead of the ruling class.

They actually are the ruling class. Seriously, look at the demographics.

Yes, look at the demographics. it is not senators and billionaires, just because these people are better off than you are I does not make them the enemy. This is the entire gameplan, you hating on people who make more than you instead of the people who are in control.

They are billionaires and multimillionaires, owners of huge corporations. It's one of the wealthiest counties in one of the wealthiest states. Not sure if any in particular are senators, but there are powerful people.

If you work or live there, you are there. you are inconveniencing your people. are you a millionaire?

Not sure if you are agreeing with me or not, but that is exactly what I'm saying. Right now, blocking traffic is about as easy for the "king" to ignore as anything else.
