I despise them and openly taunt the protestors. I think their actions are usually foolish and have alienated people on the center left, such as myself. Especially the silly protests they organize to tell me to ’ check my white privilege’ or other such nonsense. Interrupting CTA train rides, the Pride Parade, or brunch in restaurants is highly counter productive to their cause.
