Si dérisoire, les pauvres.
On n'en peut plus que personne ne réagisse et laisse les sionistes éradiquer les palestiniens.
So pathetic and heartbreaking.....
We can't take it anymore, no one is reacting and preventing Zionists from ethnically cleansing Palestinians

Taking a fat dump on protest nay-sayers
I wish I could tag this as discussion.
I'm getting little annoyed at people only say "protest are useless" then proceed to suggest nothing and do nothing just to keep us in a state of complacency with the status quo.
Protest do have a function they do show those in power that people are opposed to policy or politician, but more importantly they show that other people the people that live in their city or local area are willing to show their political stance publicly. It can raise awareness and pull people in the margin to your side. from what I experience, it can show the right that they wont act on their violent words.
I get that the opposition to protest say that it never changed anything or trump continues to act crazy, and I'd say that we need to do more in addition to the protest not that we shouldn't do protest. I'll need someone that advocate not doing protest to speak in the comment.
I want to see protest "upgrade" from a gathering of people to meet-and-greets and concert. If you are at a protest you should actually enjoy it, show off your signs explain it to other protestors, and talk with other people on what to do locally. I would suggest promoting a business at a protest.
protest are good way to get around social media algorithms

Un’auto elettrica su cinque venduta in Italia è cinese. L’allarme Uilm: «Pechino sta conquistando il mercato»
Byd, MG, Leapmotor e gli altri gruppi cinesi hanno più che quadruplicato in un anno le immatricolazioni di vetture a batteria nel Paese. Palombella: «Fra i primi 50 modelli elettrici solo la Fiat 500 è fabbricata in Italia»Francesco Bertolino (Corriere della Sera)
"Nel 2025, calcola un’analisi della Uilm, i gruppi cinesi hanno venduto 18.300 vetture a batteria (Bev), più che quadruplicando il dato dell’anno precedente (+336%). La loro quota di mercato nell’elettrico è così salita al 19% su un totale di 94.793 unità Bev immatricolate (+44%)"
Ma le cinesi hanno venduto 100k vetture in Italia. Con una complessa inferenza, scopriamo che quindi oltre 80k auto cinesi vendute in Italia sono state ibride o termiche.
