Waldo Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 (edited) Because they weren't the leaders of a long time ally or the most powerful man on earth. It makes more sense to protest against an ally than someone we aren't allied with? I'm not saying people shouldn't protest if they feel inclined to, or that Trump isn't an odious human being... Just for my money, he was democratically elected by a free people, and that needs respecting. Also, is it his crass personal nature and rhetoric that people are protesting, or his policies? ---------- Post added 13-07-2018 at 17:37 ---------- Ahhh, so scale matters. Care to expand on how scale should come into it, what are the defining factors? Because I'm trying to understand why so many more people are protesting, in comparison with the likes of China, Turkey, Saudi Arabia; who I'm sure are more 'bad guy' than the US. Admittedly, the US are probably more adept at keeping their human rights abuses under wraps. Edited July 13, 2018 by Waldo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penistone999 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Just watching Look North ,and they are live in Sheffield where the usual suspects are protesting. Id fetch the water cannons out . These people would protest about the opening of a paper bag . You can see the usual rabble represented with flags from the UAF, SWP , even Occupy are there. I thought they had vanished after camp Casper outside the cathedral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
