And in the current context of extreme polarization of the discourse -of which I have a hard time seeing the end of- it's almost obvious to be expecting Qanon types at a march against Covid measures, unless there's an accepted willingness to ban those people from your demo. And it's not like you got much of a choice... even if these clowns do nothing else than photo-ops, well.. that's what they're for in the first place; i.e. discrediting valid critics and helping the statist liberals single them out as "pro-Trump conspiracists".
If you wanna play you gotta play very carefully, as the game is rigged on both sides. The sides are the rig, too.
