    Sure, but cells of disruptive activists are not the foundations of a nationally effective movement. You need a way for normies to show up and help. And placating their activist impulses with a demonstration of discontent while not also offering real channels for affecting change is a way of castrating collective action. That’s my two cents, at least.

      The resistance has many fronts… I’m not sure what you are missing. The last #NOKINGS protest was the largest protest in American history. I personally was there in my city. You pick the type of person and they were there. Old, young, conservative, religious, whatever, I met all kinds of folks from all walks of life. That’s what this is all about.
