To some degree, the news reports what's trending on Twitter, sad to say.  So putting these issues front and center, even if only for a week, is better than nothing.

I find it interesting how some places are still going strong, if not even stronger, with the protests like Portland. Then places like where I live has called it a day and is “back to normal”.

It’s just interesting in general to see who is still addressing this and who has stopped. I definitely thinks part of this speaks to the need to address other issues or focus on keeping themselves safe from COVID-19, which is just continuing to get worse...but also the way this was a trend or something edgy to jump on to stick it to your racist Trumpster uncle and show how woke you are.

I’m a realist  but I’m also a cynic lol.

Seattle and Portland and San Francisco have been shitholes since the Vietnam War and the Summer of ove.  This isn't new.

Okay this admittedly made me LOL ðŸ'€

Speaking of Summer of Love and Seattle, did anyone already touch on the two White non-binary protesters on that highway by the Black driver? And how one of them died very shortly afterwards and the driver is now charged with vehicular murder? If no one knows what I’m talking about, I can find a link or news article. I’m still waiting for info regarding whether he did it intentionally or not.

Yes, it is sad.

Unnamed goons lashed out, brutally beating a peaceful American citizen and navy vet, who shrugged off the blows

You won't find a more clear-cut example of both villainy and heroism.  If you're not on this guy's side, you picked the wrong side.  Period.

Why not just use hieroglyphics? Same difference.
