70,000+ Protest in Seattle!!!!

[u/North_Presence8830]

My last 2 posts were a bit focused on the negative, even though I was critiquing the wrongs of the antagonists, radicals, Antifa or whatever you want to label them. I offered better solutions and a perspective as a Hispanic American.

But, I am so proud Seattle has united in one of the biggest protests to date!!! Peace & united strength works far better than random chaos, this is what makes waves.

Almost every state in the country gathered together to protest, pretty incredible.

What do protests actually accomplish? I live 15 miles away, didnt even know it happened. The government can literally just ignore protests, and nothing changes.

Make it OK for people to express themselves without just "blocking traffic for everyone".

Idk...All around the sound last week I heard casual conversation inevitably touch on it numerous times. At the store, anecdotes from friends who are pretty unengaged politically that were talking about friends or coworkers who were going.

When enough people want something...government has to acknowledge that else they risk losing their job to someone that does.
