They most certainly did though. This was setup in front of the mayor's house in Portland OR: https://twitter.com/BGOnTheScene/status/1297421944799686658 https://twitter.com/BGOnTheScene/status/1297421944799686658 — I am starting to question if people do not realize this activity has been going on for many months in cities across the country. Why the media kept this relatively quiet (now and previously) is beyond comprehension for most people aware at this point. The media is divided and therefore, our people are also divided. If two people can’t agree what/when/if past events occurred, how can anyone discuss, much less agree on the current events? In other words, perhaps people should consider that any opinions formed re: politics were likely formed from/by the media they consumed. If we know the media has lately been “one-sided” (yet coming from all sides), perhaps we should be a bit more vigilant to not make assumptions about “another side” if we are unwilling to look at that side - outside the lens of the “great filter”. IIRC, the great filter is what Elon Musk calls it, at least that’s my understanding of the meaning. The instant outrage of today - solely based on what the media is presenting - is at the very least - a possible attack vector for outside or even internal forces. It is my opinion that folks need to better understand this before becoming immediately outraged. It’s up to a person to determine what side they want to present to others politically, but having an understanding that most people won’t review “all sides” before discussion can help keep “toxicity” in-check upon the inevitable disagreement that will come after posting any political statement. This is why it’s an attack vector, and why the attack works. It works based on the likelihood that most won’t even look, yet will make assertions as if they did.
