Summary
JD Vance’s ski trip to Vermont’s Sugarbush Resort was met with hundreds of protesters following his confrontational behavior toward Ukrainian President Zelenskyy.
Demonstrators carried signs calling Vance a “traitor” and suggesting he “go ski in Russia.”
A resort employee posted an unauthorized political message in the snow report criticizing the administration’s environmental policies.
The backlash follows concerns over Vance’s alignment with Trump and his remarks urging European nations to engage with far-right parties.
The ‘based’ part wasn’t that they showed up to protest. It was that they potentially sacrificed their job, endangered their own comfort and security, to stand up for a moral code and take a side. Something that escapes centrists/fascists.
Were you asleep for Elon and his supporters breaking out the nazi salutes?
No I wasn’t but you bring up a good point, even fascists have more backbone and community spirit than centrists do.
Their behavior is clearly treasonous and with taking away so many people’s benefits and safety nets they’re absolutely painting a target on their own backs. Even with their names and pictures in the media they carry on. If we can’t match their resolve and disregard of consequences then we’ve lost.
