Social media posts claiming that April 5 protesters in Washington, D.C., and elsewhere were paid, don't hold up to scrutiny. Videos misleadingly framed normal protesting and organizing activities — including similar signage and coordinated transportation— as evidence that protesters were paid hourly workers.
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
You’re not getting your Soros checks in the mail?! Let me go talk to HR.
Thanks, please do
