We must always make those disclaimers. lol

Gawd, that's so disheartening. I have to admit that I've been focused on white people showing up for decades that it is only in the face of this undeniable white supremacist regime that the thought of white men showing up en masse came to me. I certainly have never seen that for any progressive protest; they are there in a supporting role, which has been appropriate.

But I really feel it would shake MAGA to see a huge group of white men protesting -- not carrying MAGA and Nazi flags -- though it's highly, highly unlikely that enough will show an interest. When I was first hashing it out with white so-called progressive male friends, they had every excuse in the book as to why it couldn't happen. They mainly felt I was being divisive by even making the request. lololol

Oh well, everyone is ranting and raving about WHAT CAN WE DO????!!!!! so I thought about it and that's what I came up with. I tagged all the White Dudes for Kamala organizers on bluesky. Let's see if any respond at all. I'm a nobody so I doubt it.
