Saturdays #WalkAway March on Washington had been hyped for months by Fox News and other conservative outlets.
The eventorganized by a gay man named Brandon Straka who claims he was a liberal until being converted to Republicanism by Donald Trumpdrew what supporters called thousands but which appeared to be only a handful of people at some points during the events livestream. Speakers included Clueless co-star Stacey Dash.
The event ended fittingly, with a folk singer named J.T. Wilde singing a song about the QAnon conspiracy theory to a few dozen people, several of whom sang along to his chorus of Where We Go One, We Go All after his intense prompting.
They call us deplorable/and we love the name/ the bodies are in the dirt/and they need someone to blame, Wilde sang. They call it a conspiracy/cuz its the one last lie/we know who they are/and weve got them in our sights.

People who just give up are not the sort of people who go to marches.
