You carefully examined the picture and didn't notice the dates on the sign are from the walkout last November?

  Not sure what relevance that has. All the vague signs make it look like something out of a parody skit or cartoon.

    Not sure if you're being willfully ignorant, but it's from this event: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/01/technology/google-walkout-sexual-harassment.html https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/01/technology/google-walkout... Seems like they did a reasonably effective job of conveying their protest message across to the NYT, vague signs or not.

      Your link says the "protests" were triggered by the NYT. It is not surprising they would cover the continuation of their own story: > "The backlash was prompted by an article in The New York Times last week" And I don't see a single sign in that story (actually I glimpsed one blurry one in the video), which is for the best because those signs make it difficult to take them seriously.

        Well, they got their message across in a widely-published news article and you got your comment buried at the bottom on Hacker News

          As I said, no thanks to the signs. It looks like the NYT may have even purposefully left them out of their coverage due to how cringeworthy they are.
