I was badly bullied throughout childhood. Everyone told me to ignore.
But then the bullies did things that became harder & harder to ignore until it ended in violence.
Ignoring is only an option for those with privilege.
I hope ppl learn how to use their privilege for decency and humanity.

I dunno guys… if I was a passenger in a bus and the driver was smashing into cars and running people over I wouldn’t wait for them to stop driving before grabbing the wheel.

Imagine doing a PhD in electricity, just so you knew how to blow up nuclear power plants and heavy water-producing facilities.

Let's be clear. Donald Trump will indict the Fed Chair, kidnap foreign leaders and kill American citizens in MN if it distracts you from asking WTF is in the Epstein files because HIS BASE doesn't like pedophiles. None of this is normal. But everything he does is from weakness right now.

Notice the way the phrase ‘National security’ is repeated over and over regarding Greenland. The Ad nauseam technique is used so that eventually when a phrase is repeated enough people start to believe it. The same happened with ‘mild’, ‘learn to live with it’.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This is serious, rigorous analysis and it should change the way the media has been covering these protests. These were, in the aggregate, *massive.*
Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop!
