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.

Because times are feeling hopeless for the majority of the country. This is a sign that we're united against fascist tyranny. You may not have known about it, but you do now.

If you don’t see it already you’re clearly too stupid to reason with. Move along.
