there is something to be said about being connected to others. particularly for protests that move around or so you can let people know you're driving home etc vs locked up for bullshit.
it's also convenient as a form of souseveillance. Just remember pictures and video are evidence, that cuts both ways; especially in the face of cops being excessive.
Wouldn't bringing your car mean easy surveillance
Unless you happen to live fairly close… which is fairly not likely…. So you drive to a rally point or someplace near some transit (or with plausible deniability,) etc. to get in.
Or just conceal your plates and don’t drive something flashy,
Anyway, where are these protests americans are talking about? All I see are people complaining online while trump runs a ruckus in the oval office
protests are happening everywhere, in every state, though they're mostly small. the news isn't covering a lot of them because there's no rioters and the news can't push a narrative that people hate trump.
