This is what was happening before the feds unleashed all that violence, btw

One: I went to a protest today and didn't have a panic attack or a ptsd episode.
Two: I realized after about an hour I had a typo on my sign
dick move.

18.10.2025 17:48 โ ๐ 197 ๐ 50 ๐ฌ 12 ๐ 2It is an inherently coloborationist framework. If there is violence, it will be because of the actions of Washington state and local police. The message "Don't give Trump an excuse" is giving him one in advance.
18.10.2025 17:15 โ ๐ 7 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The idea that LA, Chicago, DC Portland or Memphis have "given Trump an excuse to send the guard" is so harmful. It blames the victims of facism and those protesting facism for the actions of fascists.

18.10.2025 16:55 โ ๐ 8 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0This is not a helpful statement. The only violence that's happened at protests has been done by the police. If elected leaders in Washington want to help ensure peace and nonviolence, reduce or eliminate police presence at protests.
18.10.2025 16:49 โ ๐ 7 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0To ensure protests stay peaceful, elected leaders should do all they can to reduce or eliminate police presence at protests today.
18.10.2025 16:46 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I'm hopeful and I expect that things will be peaceful today in Spokane and around Washington state. But the people that @governorferguson.bsky.social and @murray.senate.gov and others should be reminding to stay peaceful are the cops.
18.10.2025 16:45 โ ๐ 8 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0Appreciate that washington state electeds are telling folks to go protest. However, the reminders to stay peaceful are unhelpful to say the least. The only violence that's been happening at protests is violence done by police. Period

It's getting triggered every day just by existing in the world and disengaging is not an option. I'm gonna be scared either way. Organizing, connecting with community and mental health care will get me through.
18.10.2025 16:06 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I'm glad that they are safe, but leaving is not an option for me and many many others. Gonna do what I can, when I can for as long as I can. Gonna remember the millions of people who have stood up and are standing up with less protections and more to risk than I have, and draw strength from that
