I was told that it may lead to easier or faster release, and I imagine I might be targeted to be imprisoned if I push it if I don’t bring an ID, but I feel like that’s bullshit but I don’t think I should leave it to chance

Would you bring an ID to a protest?

(Did I accidentally start a struggle session?)

    Oh my god literally my point ahhhhhh yes let’s all go join the Reasonable Protests for Change. Millions in the streets over the last few decades, you feel all that CHANGE yet?

    How do you expect those millions in the streets to move further leftwards if you aren’t there talking to them about what would be more effective action for the outcomes they want?

        how do you expect them to move leftwards after watching that not happen in real time all this time?

        I have watched people move leftwards in real time though? I remember Occupy Wall Street. I remember the american left being literally non-existent back then. There has been an extreme growth of everything to the left of Obama in the time period since he was president, there was literally nothing before.

        If you think people have not moved leftwards you either haven’t been around that long or you haven’t been watching. The american left may not be large but it has grown massively in the past 20 years.

        I genuinely can’t understand where the idea that people aren’t moving leftwards comes from. They clearly are, it is obvious.
