Does anyone see anything that doesn't make sense in this picture.
Ironic or hypocracy?

Well considering this is Monday which is traditionally the start of the work week it is rather ironic that they would have a march for workers today.

Also ironic from the photo is the sign in the back that says something about "resistance" are they talking about resistance to work??

Also ironic is that when I first heard about the march today I couldn't help but think "what are they complaining about now and how is it Trumps fault"


These marches/ protests are getting old.

Resistance Unity and Respect.


One of these things is not like the others
One of these things just doesn't belong
Can you tell which thing is not like the others?

Then you have the word trust along side raised fists similar to the Black Panther symbol.

The messages seem to be contradictory.

Although those fists look like the Black Panther symbol -- it isn't -- the fist is flipped and to the side...small point but the clue that it isn't Black Panther --is the rainbow colors used.

Can't we all unite to resist the corruption of our politicians.....just showing how you can have unite and resist in the same concept.

You are struggling too hard here to find things wrong with the picture.

You got it.
That is exactly what I thought when I saw this picture with the news article.
The sign with the red lettering makes no sense. The words contradict each other.

Do you even think the person holding the sign knows that?

Well I didnt say it was black panthers but generally a raised fist is a symbol of violence or resistance. That is the first thing I think of. Trust is not what comes to mind.

The sign says Resistance Unity Respect. It doesn't say Unite Resist. I see a large difference in the meanings depending on the order and tense of the words.

So you didnt offer what stands out to you in this picture.

Protest to Protest without a clear direction?
Without even making sense?

It seems that protesting has become the flavor of the day.

International Workers' Day has a long history. Just because you never heard of it or don't know what it stands for doesn't mean everyone is as ignorant.

You remind me of Trump, who spewed a bunch of malarkey about Andrew Jackson recently, and made it clear to everyone who heard him that he had no idea what he was talking about.

Ignorance isn't an admirable trait, Atalanta. If you truly have never heard of May Day and/or you have no understanding of what it symbolizes, perhaps you should educate yourself instead of being proud of your ignorance.
