Social movement scholar here to comment on No King again. a š§µ:
These protests are important b/c:
1.) as sustained image events, protests offer evidence of continued disapproval of the direction the country is going and disavowal of the country's leadership.
Conditioning Public Opinion Perceptions by āSurvey Methods 101ā
i said last year that these people were segregationists and that āmeritā just meant āwhite and maleā to these people
That last part is important because of platform policies and user sensibilities re: "political violence," when that is the main purpose of militaries, including our own. You can't support the troops and also condemn political violence. That's literally their job.
@dannagal.bsky.social There's too much going on here please help
The replies to this very simple post about breakfast show how difficult it is to do the most basic things as a Black person. Can't even talk about where and what you got for breakfast.

57 of my fellow students were arrested, academically disciplined, and barred from campus 2 weeks before finals.
And then the visas of some of those students were quietly revoked.
And then the DEI office was killed.
And then we watched our mentorsā grants evaporate over āwokeā.

I...I'm going to have to do something about this for #CMN425 Entertainment and Politics this fall. IDK what yet, but something. An AI-generated diss track music video that operates as a geopolitical threat between two nations & is also a call for political violence just like the Trump admin videos.
I wrote my dissertationāand this paperāabout this. Ms. Rachelās speech/actions are inherently political, but whether anyone would call them political has a lot to do with āpoliticalā being both a four-letter word and one with many, often contradictory meanings. It says both a lot and nothing at all.
