You went, right?
Had a different atmosphere from what you’re used to when you think of protests, right?
There are times when we need to send a message, and a message that CONFLICTS with the narrative they are trying to sell about how we’re pushing back.
That’s what I meant by ammo, not literal ammunition. They sell a narrative, and we push back against it as if our actions are taking part in a debate.
This is how we get more average people into our rank.
There’s a time and place for more raucous unrest, and it’s not when elders are in our rank, nor when those who structured the protest state that said actions are unwelcome.
Downvote all you want (lol, can’t see it on my end since I blocked c/Ohio) but I hope you hold onto the anger you have for when we really need it, which still seems like it’s right around the corner.
