We are glad to hear that there was an attempt to change the protesters minds towards a more class conscious analysis of the crisis. However, this was indeed not the intend of this article. Further, this form of activism seems not to be an effective one at all, since the scene further radicalizes and grows in numbers. Jewish comrades and organizations in NL have raised their concerns over the increase in conspiracy theories. Since we are a diverse group and stand in solidarity with Jewish people, refugees, black, trans, people of color etc we are not planning to join this protest to spread pamphlets as it is a danger to our group. Nor, do we want to be surrounded by people that are not wearing masks and don't believe in social distancing in times of a global pandemic.
Lets organize our demos and counter demonstrations, we believe in antagonizing this form of protest.
