I don’t even know what else to add to this headline. This is so fucked up and tragic scary and infuriating and it will in no way slow the resistance.

    Exactly, and I keep seeing people quote this 3% rule regarding protests. That it takes 3% of a population to protest to succeed. But it’s wrong. It isn’t protests. It’s opinions. It takes 3-10% of a population to change their opinion on a topic for the whole group to change. This is why Russia and right wing bots and censorship and attacking left wing views until they left digital spaces become so popular. They wanted every post and every comment section to be talking about their views, kitty litter, trans bathrooms, gun rights, woke, CRT, DEA. The left let them get away with this too long. It’s a numbers game. Every post from the right must be met with 2 from us. Every comment must be met with 5 more from us. Like Sean Connery said, it’s the Chicago way.
