Post your favorite liberal arts&craft cliches. I’ll start with the one I’m partial to.

Without fail, some PMC or boring white guy will rock up with a sign like:

“this is literally the last thing I want to be doing. I am an endless well of lethargy, a monument to near-total apathy. Alas, the incompetence of those in charge has forced even my refined detachment into the streets. So here I stand, spiritually degraded, holding this sign like some kind of activist, a word that, until now, I associated with some kind of transient tempter of the youth. Can we hurry this up? every second spent protesting is a grotesque violation of my sacred right to passive despair, but alas, here we are, because apparently, even my cynicism has limits. Enjoy my grudging presence, you exhausting idealists.”

    I saw one that said “It’s pretty bad when the white cis dude is protesting” or something like that and was like “that’s all whites cishets really know how to do tho.” Like might as well have a sign that says “I dip my wings in ranch instead of blue cheese.”
