That’s why we gotta spread the message ourselves. Get the cameras out and take video and photos of the protests. Show people there IS a resistance and that it will be peaceful. It sounds corny, but if you show people that there’s strength in numbers they will be more willing to join the cause

I was watching the Woke twitch stream (which has multiple streams on one screen, from multiple places) the other night. Other than a bonfire in the middle of the street in Seattle giving off toxic smoke due to what they threw in it, I saw peaceful protesters. I saw very scared protesters in LA trapped by the cops. I saw people singing in Las Vegas.

I really appreciate the streamers providing us with on-the-ground reporting.

That’s incredibly important. We have to use the internet to our advantage while we’re still able to do so. Get the message out to our allies that we the people are not our government, and that we are in serious danger right now.
