    Just woke up

    What's the update?

    3 big stories:

    1. Group of protesters are trapped in a random houseowner's place of residence after being chased into a neighborhood by violent cops. The cops are waiting outside and have been for the past 6-7 hours, waiting to arrest them. The owner has said they cannot come in and has fed them/got a lawyer/etc. Dozens of people in this poor man's home.

    2. LA PD chief pinned blame of George Floyd's death on the protesters. Got taken down after, but the damage is done.

    3. Seattle had a fully peaceful protest that turned into a f***ing warzone on TV. Reporter got shot with a tear gas canister and people got trampled. Australian reporter also got punched in the face by cops while recording what was happening (that might have been in Philly though).

    I feel you bro and yea there's a lot of important stuff getting blocked out, but I'm seeing way more non-black people on IG that are posting selfies and promoting their own music/businesses like aint nothing going on. I feel like the blackout will force them to acknowledge whats going on. Imagine someone posting a selfie amid hundreds of black boxes they're gonna feel stupid

    Them types won’t pay attention even if you slap em in the face with this s*** honestly

    Looting, Burning buildings and fighting heavily armored soldiers with stones and screams won't lead us anywhere. Just more black folks in jail and more division.

    I see where your coming from but the looting will stop soon in my opinion.

    but the protest will get bigger and bigger

    without covid isolations, do yall think these protests would've gotten as big as they have? part of me feels like the lack of socialisation has helped people come together, as dumb as that sounds

    I think I misunderstood what you meant the first time.

    I'm guessing you meant these protesters were put together by regular people and the others were put together by activists. There was lots of looting and some riots in certain cities back then so I won't say all of them were put together by activists but I see what you're saying.

    What I meant was that now a lot of regular people are joining the protests and doing their part, while SJW protests are mostly for people who are SJW

    However, I don’t live in USA so I’m not up to date with everything that happened, could be that there were huge protests I missed or don’t remember
