Summary
Following Trump’s 2024 election victory, the fervor of anti-Trump media and resistance movements has sharply declined.
Outlets like Drudge Report and MSNBC have seen significant viewership drops, while platforms like X (formerly Twitter) face progressive disengagement as figures like Nicolle Wallace and The Guardian pull back.
The “Resistance 2.0” appears muted compared to 2016, with fewer protests, diminished media energy, and a waning appetite for anti-Trump political books.
Critics worry this apathy could weaken opposition to Trump’s more radical second-term agenda, leaving backlash dependent on his upcoming actions.
We tried to tell you at the war in the middle east protests.
We tried to tell you at Occupy Wall Street.
We tried to tell you during Bernies 2016 run.
We tried to tell you during Black Lives Matter.
We tried to tell you during Bernies 2020 campaign.
Its been decades and now we’re tuning out for our own sanity and the media and politicians are going to have to solve the problems they made and exacerbated themselves.
A movement that calls it quits after losing an election is not a serious movement. It’s more like a performance.
Maybe that’s why nobody was listening to you.
Didn’t read the list,huh dumbass?
I read it. A list of failures.
Even Cubs fans are more resilient than leftists. But that’s fine, you can just pack it in. I don’t think anyone will notice.
Maybe you should suck Putin’s cock a little deeper.
You skip the part where I said we’ve been at it for decades? Or the part where I said tuning out? No ones stopping being a revolutionary, were stopping engaging in a system that doesn’t listen to us. Read better.

Yea. I’d delete my shitty takes, too.

You saw a list of events that spans over a decade.
10 years is quite the performance, perhaps you’re just ignorant to the reality of things 🤷
Then we agree it’s not multiple decades.
And 10 years is nothing. The anti-abortion movement set Dobbs into motion in the 1990s, when they put Thomas on the SCOTUS. Their work only paid off 30 years later. Your “movement” doesn’t have the kind of patience necessary for success.
It really was mostly performance. If you ask someone today, “What did OWS want?” they will likely be unable to tell you.
Fair. Painful and mean, but also fair.
