Pure strawman. no one is implying that protests alone can do anything, but the obvious point it protests HELP CREATE the envirenment around which social change happens
btw. there were many excellent and interesting speeches at the protest along with some laughably bad ones. I know white middle class people worship the Daily show, but that doesnt change their idiotic right wing slant whenever they mock the third world or progressive movements here, and really tht has nothing to do with the subject Are mass protests in Washington, DC a waste of time and resources?

God, how I love sanctiomonious leftists who can't enjoy one of the most anti-authoritarian TV shows on cable. Right-wing? Have you ever watched the show? Jesus fucking christ, can we buy our comrade a sense of humor?

The "slant" you perceive is a "common sense" slant. Because most of the world doesn't see the protests as the more hopeful protesters see them doesn't mean they have a right- wing slant. It's not the DS's job to portray every left-leaning protest positively (in that same report, they also ridiculed the counter-protest on Sunday). Since when were they supposed to be a propaganda machine for ANSWER or any other group involved in the protests?

People should admit that the mass antiwar protests in San Francisco and Washington have turned into circuses. People should really pay more attention to their presentation and not just hold up any goddamn sign.
And we need to have a sense of self-deprecating humor about ourselves, which the Daily Show is pointing out. |
