We're just going to keep having pilot projects like this until capitalism eventually falls. Giving houses to the homeless is cheaper than anything else. Giving people healthcare is cheaper than not. Giving people basic income is cheaper than not. Taking care of society is financially prudent.
A program in Flint, MI, gave $1,500 to any/all pregnant people and $500/month for the first year of their infant’s life.
Among the benefits, those babies experienced lower rates of prematurity and low birth weight, which resulted in fewer NICU admissions, saving the city of Flint $6.2 million/year.

Being arrested is never good, actually, and majority approval for the actions being prosocial is not the primary purpose of protest.
There was a bunch of posting about how No Kings had terrible opsec because people were posting pictures of themselves at the protest. And like, guys, if you're doing things that are not illegal and 90% of people would not find antisocial, then getting arrested is like, the best protest outcome

There is an irresponsible post circulating that (FALSELY) suggests that live rounds may have been fired at protesters at a Chicago-area ICE processing center. I am in communication with people who were on-site. The shots were pepper balls. Still terrible, but not live rounds. Pls don't spread panic.
