Protest, and demonstrations are what we all know.. but it seems like there should be another way..

I have been personally quite livid at NJ deciding to let Food Stamps be used online (finally!) but only allowing Walmart, Amazon, Shop Rite, and some other company I've never heard of to do so.

the April percentages by age
16-19: 32% (34% unemployment if you're 18-19)
20-24: 26%
25-34: 14.5%

So the age demos that probably always lose their jobs first lost their jobs first. Which when you add the possible POV about which age groups are effected the most by current pandemics...

same here, Fox -- LAST place i want to use my food stamps is at Amazon, etc.
i worked at a welfare agency from 2005 to 2010 -- many applicants had had decent jobs, never thought they would have to apply for any sort of public assistance -- thankfully not elitist about it or anything, but totally lost, clueless . . . so constantly hearing unemployment numbers going up higher and higher, i can only imagine what this is all going to look like in a couple of years

also, when it comes to certain checks.. I'd think the higher percentages of people who don't qualify for those checks are younger?

Just on Twitter and learned that looting and fires are happening in Washington D.C. and there are mobs of looters in SoHo all over the place.

Looters are not protestors and the protests ended hours ago. Pretty confident that whoever is out there right now in SoHo had nothing to do with the protests that happened across the city today.

Y'know what? I don't care anymore who is looting and who is protesting. It's probably instigators. But maybe it's not. Maybe it's the people who don't give a fuck about peaceful protests and they are angry and they are fed up and this is how that manifests. Regardless, the entire situation has been brought to this crisis point from the same tributaries.

@Fox 100%. Regardless, any riot is always the fault of the government structures...it means that they have mismanaged the people's concerns and allowed the pressure to build up.
  2:20am
JakeGould:

Unless the looters are white kids (seems like it) slumming and riding in on the coattails of the suffering of non-whites.
.
It’s become a major problem at all the protests that white kids are riding in and causing property damage in the name of black people making peaceful protestors (mostly black) and their communities bigger targets.
.
If you care about what happened to George Floyd you should be concerned about white kids slumming in violence for their own kicks.
.
The job of white people at protests is to hold space and support non-whites because white people have entitlement and privilege to buffer it.

if we're assembling a profile for white people who get arrested for their "activities" at protests, the guy arrested in Nashville for setting a fire at the courthouse was a 25yo wearing a Deadpool tshirt in his twitter perp walk pic.

Sorry, Deadpool fans who are good people.

Huh, didn't know this: the Richie Havens song "Klansman" (Jeff played it earlier) was written by Alan Arkin and his father David.

Jake - Yeah, that's a good point. I hear it from both sides, though. Some think that blaming the violence and looting on instigators takes the teeth and righteous anger out of the protest itself, and helps perpetuate the status quo. Others think that the violence is ruining the movement for change.

Sure, cops are definitely trying to get things ugly and turn things into a riot so they can crush it, and leftist angry white people need to step back and realize they have NOTHING compared to the issues black america has with the police. But at the same time.... *shrug* how long can nothing change in the face of murder? How long can we know that white supremacists are targeting the police for their ideology and do nothing about it? I can't judge the destruction.

mariano - ooooh! That reminds me! I have to find and watch Catch My Soul, a Richie Havens musical of Othello, direted by Patrick McGoohan. I've been on a huge McGoohan kick again recently.

from what i'm reading, i'm not sure if PDs like using tear gas more or pepper spray

I think cities handled a pandemic better than the stuff that they usually have to do, which is a bit of a "priorities" thing?

If you have not been at any of these recent protests you honestly have utterly no right to judge the reactions of people who have been there. I only went to one today.
.
I know others who have been at protests in the past few days and the pattern is clear: The protestors who are peaceful are truly not connected to the rioters and looters.
.
And many people out there have problems differentiating they two will just blame the peaceful protestors for actions they do not condone, do not support and will put them in danger. The black community will suffer because white kids want to cosplay and live action role play what pain and outrage mean.
.
Anyway good night people.

re: instigators, fake protestors, etc. -- i have heard all sorts of stories, how the KKK, alt-right groups, etc., are sending in "their" people to protests so they can start shit -- so a peaceful protest gets violent, and makes the protestors look bad to all those suburbanites "tsk tsk"-ing in front of their TVs . . . and then of course random jerks who want to "start a riot" not because they support a cause, but because they think it is "fun" and maybe they will get on TV

then you gotta wonder about law enforcement deliberately planting undercover people . . . this was a huge caution years ago, when we (animal rights activists) were considered the number one terrorist threat in the country -- and it continues now; a friend in Oakland posted a statement that if one is going to any of the protests, be sure that you are with friends or groups who you know and trust

@Fox: “I can't judge the destruction.” Because you utterly miss the point. You are not black and neither am I. And we both have life baggage but even with that baggage we still have privilege.
.
Even in our mutual worst days/states we are inherently at a better position in the world than than anyone at any level in the black community and to just shrug it off as “both sides” only future shines the light in the fact that neither of us would ever be targets in the same way as a black protestor will be.
.
I honestly don’t care one bit about luxury stores being looted. Property is not important than life. But I do care about peaceful protestors potentially being harmed by the implied actions of others supposedly “acting on their behalf.”

Jake: Dude. I am saying, I am not there. I am not witness. I am seeing and hearing different accounts by people who ARE there. As such, I do not know conclusively what is going on. It's not all shitty white people doing the looting and instigating. But since I do not know, and I am not black, I am not going to judge what is going on.

Please don't lecture me about my white privilege, man. I don't need that shit explained to me.

@Fox: “I am saying, I am not there. I am not witness.” I have been at today’s protest I. Brooklyn. I did so for the reasons you explain. My friends were at the protests yesterday and today. One was specifically at the NYPD SUV rundown on Flatbush and Saint Marks. Another saw NYPD instigation. And my own ideas about agitators are not wildly generic; it is simply based on what I — and others at these protest — have seen.
.
All I said to begin with is simply looting is happening in SoHo and Washington, D.C. That’s it.

Holding space is of value. Sorry for the multiple “Byes!” but seriously.
