Gyroscopic Investing

Well, I finally did it. Went to the first protest in my life.

After days of hearing on the MSM about Neo-Nazi white supremacists protesting last weekend, I decided that I would see for myself today.

1. Everyone was peaceful
2. Stood on a street corner for an hour, marchers still going after I left.
3. Estimated at 400,000
4. Surprised how many Eastern Europeans were marching under their own flags. Guess they didn't like socialism.
5. Think Government stepped on a land mine in wanting to vaccinate young children. Many mothers and children present.

Bottom line, I am afraid mainstream media is like Pravda these days. You will have to investigate personally to determine reality.

Stay safe, Hal. Just out of curiosity, what flags did you see?

Didn't know the countries, only recognised the Greek flags.
Anyway, it turns out someone was filming only a few feet away from me.
This is what I saw, but only watched for an hour, not the full 2 1/2hrs for the crowd to pass

Btw, turns out about a 1/2 million people attended

Just remember, dissenters will always be vilified. When it comes time to round them up or hurt them, the police and armed forces will have been convinced they are doing the right thing.

Based. The whimsical tone of your posts made it seem like you weren't concerned.

FFWD through the film - from what can be considered Eastern European - Croatian, Polish, Albanian and Greek flags. Saw also Irish.
Croatian and Polish guys know some things about socialism, for sure..
Actually it is very funny to see the enormous difference in the way governments of the countries that are considered as developed democracies behave versus the governments of countries like mine (ex-socialist, infant democracies). Here we have just a tad over 25% of the population being vaccinated. Noone says a word about mandatory vaccination.

PS. Personally, I never participate in any kind of protests - rely on self-sustainability, self defense, 4x4 car, and .. also PP might be considered as part of the overall picture. Tell me I am doomer...

What you are is prudent, Sir.
