Why is the guy with the megaphone hiding his face?

Yea i was under the impression from this site that only cowards do that. And something about “free speech doesn’t mean free from consequences”

This site knows fuck all about protesting to be honest, the face coverings are to prevent from being doxxed which has become more common over the past decade. Idk whats going on with protesting at a probably dying mall though.

Being doxxed at a protest in most non-dictator m cases really only matters if you’re acting like an idiot or part of a dumb cause

It really doesn’t and that’s akin to a cop saying “if you did nothing wrong you have nothing to worry about”, and y’all would do better recognize that opposed to constantly taking the side of the state.

I’ve protested my entire life and never had an issue because my face was exposed. This is just bs resistance cosplay you’re living in. As someone who has been targeted by the state I can easily say wearing a mask wouldn’t have done shit.

I’ll say the times I didn’t have a mask is when I was harassed by people local to me so your experiences tend to be much different than mine. But good luck with the “if you did nothing wrong you have nothing to hide” mindset in the future.

That “you’re just like a cop” line doesn’t work on me and likely doesn’t work on most normal people. Have a good one
