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?)

    Not sure this is really a great counterexample. The 2020 protests were widespread but had 0 lasting material effect, and any ideological effect of enlightening white people about racism clearly didn’t hold either.

    What do you mean? Police funding skyrocketed.

      I disagree. That imaged stayed in my mind as an example we can actually do something useful.

      Before that I saw the police and state as unbeatable, especially in the US. But they taught people a good lesson that day.
