They look like the homeless. Must be paid agitators.
“They look like the homeless. Must be paid agitators.”
Ya think?
Homeless folk are always scrounging for day-labor “gigs” like this. When one of them finds an ad for, say, movie extras, he’ll go tell all his buddies.
These protests are just like acting as extras in a movie, and pay just as well, but with an added advantage.
There’s no director yelling “CUT!”
The protestors are, to a certain extent, in control! They are being encouraged to keep the protests going for as long as possible so as to get more money!
Since they don’t pay rent, and they either shoplift or beg for food, a few days’ pay can keep them high on their drug of choice for weeks.
