A lot of signs that appear at protests are made to get people’s blood up, get them angry, or give them something pithy to shout at the object of their disdain. This person, on the other hand, has decided to let the people around him or her know something.
If they want to chat about the topic of the day, then they’ll have to pull out their dayplanner and find a time that works for everyone. Respectful discourse is at an all-time low these days, it seems, which means this person is doing the Lord’s work in trying to cool things down.
We Hope There's a Lot
The sign here doesn't look like it's part of an actual protest. It looks like it could be anything from your standard street crowd to a rally for something, though nobody seems to be pushing for anything, and the demographics of the picture are all over the place.
The person holding this sign seems to be expecting something sweet after getting all gussied up and making a sign to go outside with. The fact that there isn't any cake won't have this person looking forward to his or her next opportunity to step onto the street. We'll turn up to any protest for cake, to be fair.
Tea Time, Anyone?
If you have found a more British protest sign than the one in this photo, then we would love to see it. This clearly shows just how much of an impact Donald Trump has had on the world, even outside the US.
This photo was taken at a protest directed strictly at the former president during a women’s march in London. It took place outside the US Embassy, and we can’t help but chuckle at just how quintessentially British it is. It’s so positive, so proper, and so polite all at once! Now we just want to have a nice, hot cup of tea.
A Ruff Rider
You know, it’s not just human beings who have a bone to pick with society every once in a while. Man’s best friend also has plenty of reasons to be upset. To take things one step further, it’s safe to say that climate change affects not just homo sapiens but also the rest of the animal kingdom.
Dogs need fresh air to play in and nice green trees to pee on when they go out on their walks. And if this beautiful hound hanging out of his owner’s backpack with his tiny sign can’t convince world leaders to stop climate change, then nothing will.
A Generational Divide
Some protests happen because of the disparity in outlooks between different age groups. Today, a new generation seems to sprout every few months. What about the good old times when boomers were the thing for what seemed like decades? This photo gives us a warm, fuzzy feeling.
It’s good to know that protesters in this age bracket still know how to let out their funny side every once in a while. You can even see the little smirks plastered on their faces as they hold up the sign. This photo was taken at the Aged Care Protest in South Australia back in 2009.
