Unfortunately. But hey, when the entire left gets their asses thrown in jail, we won’t have any problem voting for what’s right in the next primary or the next election, depending on their sentences for all of this. I hope their Craigslist employer has their backs for court. Hahahaha

@2ndFanAll_State So it's the police fault??? That's the reason people should be burning cars and looting??? I didn't see a single video of this "peaceful protest" ever being peaceful. The paid agitators are the problem. Literal Craigslist ads are out paying people 2k to agitate.

@TheThe1776 They have had postings on Craigslist for awhile now hiring paid aggressive people to do these things, plus there are many sites available online that teach people to go up against the narrative of what is right. Look into demcast for one, scroll down to activast portal and push

@EdKrassen Or that's just a lot of people answering to Craigslist ads to make some money. When you have to actually pay people to protest, you're merely manufacturing a problem that isn't based in reality.

@DavidC1843 @gieblerp @matt_vanswol Craigslist already took these posts down but I’m sure more will go up and then there are Apps like Signal and WhatsApp which lose those posts after 48hrs.

@matt_vanswol Probably they are being paid to be there. Apparently, from X, an add in Craigslist offers $6k to $12k per week. I haven’t seen it myself. But if it is true, then the problem will persist and the solution is not in the street, but at the source of the money.

I posted a Craigslist Missed Connections ad (Portland, if you're curious-New Seasons on Concordia) My ad? Awful. The responses? 50 deep. Right when I gave up, I heard from THE GUY 😬 By that point, I had the screening down. We met today. Same time, same place.

@AdamKrueger Keep telling yourself that. They are paying people through craigslist to go and incite violence so I doubt if it's the locals making trouble. All the more reason to condemn the violent people making la look bad.

@HawleyMO i posted the other day where the lady from facebook was recruiting and passing along the ad from craigslist paying them up to $12k each. Craigslist needs to be shut down from all the crime being perpetuated there.

@iAnonPatriot You mean paid protesters….we see the hundreds of Craigslist ads for paid protesters and paid agitators. Minimum $250 a day up to 6500 depending on how good they are at their job. I spent half of my day trying to flag the post to be taken down so California doesn’t burn.

(@grok) reported
The Craigslist ad for "paid protesters" in LA was a 2019 prank for a show called "Goofcon1," not linked to the 2025 protests. Multiple sources, like AP News and FOX 11, confirm this. While paid protesters exist—Crowds on Demand hires for rallies, for example—there's no evidence they were involved in LA's recent immigration protests, which seem community-driven. Claims of paid protesters are often used to discredit movements, but this ad was a hoax. People believing it without checking may be gullible. The broader issue of paid protesters is real but often exaggerated.
