so direct action is not an option available to you. what can you do right now instead?

Be mindful of the content you’re putting on your social media accounts. Stop retweeting/reposting violent images and videos of black people dying. Know that content like this, even with trigger warnings included, can be very emotionally disturbing/distressing and yes, even traumatic, for black people navigating the internet right now.

Report any images and videos you see where protestors’ faces are visible/unblurred, particularly in content surrounding the lootings. Don’t retweet or repost these images and videos. This can be a death sentence.

Taylor got her justice. She brought justice on herself for living there scumfuck life that she did. No one wants to say it, but she got justice.

Come off anonymous, you racist ass mother fucking bootlicker. She did not get justice. The officer who shot the fatal shot wasn't even the one charged. The charge wasn't even in response to her murder, but rather because the officers shot so many rounds that they endangered her NEIGHBORS. In what world is that justice. You don't even call her by her first name; you treat her like a historical figure. There is nothing to debate here.

Feeling highly ambiguous tonight
