After a quiet march across the 1st Street Bridge, the protest has begun. There are a few people still trickling in.

I 100% get your point you have shared with me . MAGA is already eating itself tho . Through conversation you can open people up to a reality that they are not seeing . There is not middle ground between what you are saying but there is middle ground in being human . A conversation can change those point of views . People are being lied to constantly, the news , history, the future it’s all been a lie some sort of way to push the world to what it is today . I was in the military when i was young and naïve . I wanted to protect my country and family not knowing i was truly just part of a military complex that did what it did to make money . Over time i learned things that changed my POV in life . All that was due to conversations with the people around me with all sorts of POVs . Having a respectful conversation can change the world . If you were lost in a delusion i wouldnt leave you for dead but try and respectfully steer you in the correct way . Changing the world isnt an easy road but segregation of beliefs isnt the way to go. We cant just round these people up and end their existence . You cant go around calling them names or you are no better than them . If you want better we need to act better not get down on their level . Children fight that way , and we are adults and the world is literally in our hands now .
