So much wrong, but democrats can seldom articulate exactly what it is.

Per this report, https://www.kgun9.com/news/community-inspired-journalism/midtown-news/hands-off-protest-returns-to-reid-park-in-midtown , the protest lined E. 22nd St. for about 3/4 of a mile. One side of that street is a golf course and other land that is probably mostly fenced, so if the protesters stayed on sidewalks instead of in the street (probable, since there is a police station along that stretch) "10s of thousands" is an absurd lie.

They don’t realize it’s them. Like that old saying “I saw the enemy and it is us”

I'd like to see an accurate estimate of how large that protest actually was. I'm suspicious that "tens of thousands" may be optimistic.

Is there a source for that "tens of thousands figure", other than that Reddit user? Because I give a claim originating from Reddit about as much weight as something I heard in a cartoon or a drunken stupor.

Per the article above, “thousands”. So, yeah ~1/10 of the DU OP claim. Judging by the map, I’d guess 2000-4000.

Not tens of thousands, not even thousands, but tens of protestors.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
