What does Mark Fisher think about the recent protests against Trump?
Mark Fisher views the recent protests as merely performative actions, comparing them to what he calls "the George Soros playbook." He describes seeing only a dozen or couple dozen protesters with signs in Rhode Island, suggesting these demonstrations lack genuine substance or grassroots support. Fisher finds these planned protests suspicious, noting they were scheduled online by demonstrators for specific dates (the 5th and 17th). His critical stance implies he believes these protests are orchestrated rather than authentic expressions of public sentiment, possibly as desperate political maneuvers rather than meaningful political engagement.
