We’ve previously covered how federal union protesters have employed sonic torture as a way to make the public aware of their mass layoffs plight. Their apparent hope is that off-key singing will make Elon Musk and DOGE put off eliminating their jobs as federal employees.
Have a listen and see if you think this is effective.

Nova Jenson (@Novajmorea) ~ {Replying to @libsoftiktok} My ear after hearing this ...

We’ll give you a moment to grab a tissue and bandages for your bleeding ears.
Apparently, Chaya Raichik (aka, Libs of TikTok) had to endure that pain to bring us the story, so she felt like everyone else should have to share in the "experience," too. Thanks, Chaya ... for ruined eardrums.
Again with the singing! The Democrat Party (to which these workers belong) is perpetually stuck in the 1960s. They desperately need to ditch their playbook and songbooks because this doesn't work.
Dagim Addis (@DagimAddis3) ~ {Replying to @libsoftiktok} My ears! What’s going on? Who told them singing horribly is the best way of protecting? It is creepy!
Jacktron (@jacktronprime) ~ {Replying to @libsoftiktok} This is their new tactic now? Singing?
More like howling and scratching a chalkboard at the same time.

It looks like a few commenters escaped the golden throats of the protesters.
Delic8WeeFlower (@Delic8WeeFlower) ~ {Replying to @libsoftiktok} I see people flapping their arms and you say they've broken out in song ... and all I hear is the voices in my head thanking me for not touching the volume button on my phone!
SezSimon (@SezSimon42) ~ {Replying to @libsoftiktok} Oops, forgot to have the volume on. I guess I'll just have to imagine their angelic voices.

Some posters say these howling protesters are going to the dogs.
Salty Cracker (@SaltyCracker9) ~ {Replying to @libsoftiktok} Sounds like a dog vomiting.

Patriot Duck (@RealPatriotDuck) ~ {Replying to @SaltyCracker9 and @libsoftiktok} Dude, that's an insult to vomiting dogs everywhere.
Pigpen (@PigpenEXHD359) ~ {Replying to @libsoftiktok} Everything they do is ugly and meant to snuff out all that is beautiful. They do it because they hate themselves so much.
Chris Allison (@Chrisleealliso) ~ {Replying to @libsoftiktok} I can’t describe how much I don’t relate to this side of America.

We’ve made this observation as well. Everything about the Democrat Party is unattractive. It feels like they’ve rejected beauty on every level. Like the last poster said, we cannot relate to them. That’s probably the case for a growing number of Americans and the 1960s-style sing-alongs just make it harder.
