These people keep saying paid protesters. Where the hell does anybody get that job? I have actually searched monster, indeed, Facebook marketplace, Craigslist only to find no job listing that said anything about protesting or paid. If these chuckle f**** even did that bit of research they could realize that what they're saying is just b*******

It’s their dogwhistle for protesters they don’t agree with like “DEI Hire”. I have been accused of being a “paid activist” once on Lemmy.

I, also, I have been accused of being a paid activist. I think that's funny because my life situation doesn't allow me to even get out and protest
