@SandiaMesa @realcaseyrollins @sim I'm detecting sarcasm, but you didn't add a /s. It .. did get better. Things changed a lot during the civil rights movement. Black people got .. rights! There was more fighting. There was Jim Crow .. but man a lot of progress was made. There is still progress to be made, but do not discredit what that generation did. That was a noble time, filled with hope and people of color who stood for non-violence and won many victories.
Vote #Trump or you ain't white
@sim @realcaseyrollins You know .. if it was just the horns and afterwards, and you could walk into a store the next day and everything was cool .. I would try to understand. But it was horns .. and then everything went to fucking shit. Cop cars on fire. Trains shut down. Everything that didn't get looted is now boarded up.
The revolution will not be televised: it will be live-streamed on #YouTube.
@sim @realcaseyrollins I think it's more difficult to do peaceful protests. You have to convince entire groups to not give into violence. MLKing was able to pull it off. Gandhi not so much, but then he'd starve himself and everyone would get back into line.
King let the nation watch his people get abused by firemen and attacked by dogs. It was cruel .. but the people listened.
I heard this bullshit for 2 hours Saturday with a splitting headache, fell asleep, and awoke to find the city on fire.
@Hemmels is lonely on jitsi - come join us as the UK locks down even harder.
