My middle school aged grandson saw a video about the Doomsday Clock being β85 seconds to midnightβ and thought the world was ending in a matter of hoursβ¦last night.
Itβs not a countdown - itβs a metaphor.
Weβre handing children adult fears without context.

Iβm seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.
And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: βNo, I donβt have to show you any documentation.β
Because thatβs how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Now with sights. So they can park a dot on people who may or may not be US citizens.
So they can more accurately terrorize and I assume "accidentally" murder people in the streets.

I have tried to promote this as much as possible.
MSM seem to be ignoring it completely.
We know our promotion helps.
But should we really be trying to push peace on a national level.
WAKE UP MAINSTREAM MEDIA.
