Dad, husband, counselor. Believer in selfish altruism. Lifting others up makes us stronger. Helping others helps ourselves. Not getting into pointless arguments on the internet is an act of revolution.
I’m extremely concerned for the existential threat that our government poses to life on this planet. That cannot be understated. One rogue nation. One nuclear attack. The whole situation rapidly spirals out of control, given this administration’s ineptitude at communication. Civilization is done.

What sort of imagery would you suggest would be most effective in this context? Most images of armed, militant white folks are of right wing 2A enthusiasts who certainly do not share our views.

Not what I’m suggesting. Black folks have always borne a disproportionate share of government tyranny. What I’m suggesting is that we all demonstrate that we’re willing to resist, militantly if necessary. The Black Panthers are a model for that kind of resistance.
