Yeah, I'm just saying they need a new slant, a rallying cry. Rejoin just doesn't have that same catchy feel to it.

I read you're comment as you saying they should be pro-rejoin instead of anti-brexit.

Essentially, yes, but it's more branding than belief. I'm sure the people in the protests understand the difference, but the news media is calling them anti-Brexit, as though you can oppose leaving after you've left.
