Suppose They Threw a Protest for Stephen Colbert and (Almost) Nobody Came?

New Yorkers rose as one this weekend in protest of late-night philosopher king Stephen Colbert being forced off the air (eventually, someday) by Orange Man Literally Hitler™ in his latest crushing of dissent and our democracy.
Or perhaps not.
The "We're With Colbert" protest garnered 20 mostly bored-looking protestors — and only briefly. One masked defender of democracy carried a homemade sign that read "Go F*** Yourself" above a Photoshop collage of three different black church choirs. I suppose they were supposed to be singing her catchy slogan in their Sunday best.
So... um... there was that.
Even on social media — where it's basically free for bots to drum up fake-but-passable support for any cause du jour — "We're With Colbert" was a bust. My not-so-brief scroll through X's search results revealed a seemingly endless stream of links to the same New York Post write-up of the non-event, plus the occasional cruel comments from amused Righties.
