no, no… thinking they could just get away with that shit was their fuck up. and they didn’t. the people rose up nationwide in the millions. but then our collective outrage died down, and they started to get away with it elsewhere, and now we gotta rise up again to remind them how unacceptable that was and how much more unacceptable it continues to be. but we gotta rise up bigger, and make them stop.

edit: this isn’t some fight we’re gonna win easy over the course of a single summer. it’s gonna take a sustained, escalating fight, likely over the course of several years. we all need to be committed to an ugly, nasty fight, for the long haul.

don’t make their arguments of oppression for them. don’t be their tool
