Yeah it is gonna be cringe for sure. Still, I'm interested to see how the specter of the current ICE protests will affect the vibes and happenings. I expect antagonism from ICE/USMC/National Guard in LA in some capacity, maybe in some other cities (I think there are 5 cities with "elite ICE strike groups" or something now). I also expect some ridiculous police brutality especially in red states where the pigs have been itching for this sort of thing. Abbott is deploying the national guard in Texas though I am unsure in what capacity. I believe National Guard presence especially in red states to become pretty regular at protests this summer.
I would rather it have no message in particular than be "Hands Off NATO!" like the last big lib protest was.
