                                          not really a fan of this mythologizing/sanctifying of our history, but I get why it’s necessary here…

                                      seeing right-wing chuds co-opting the “Whose streets? Our streets!” chant is sickening; they were all bused in from out of town

      wait so why did we swear in those live witnesses if we’re just doing another video instead?
  1. …in reply to @cooljeanius
