    “but what are you doing, hero?”

    The war cry of the complacent, docile and subservient American.

        We don’t need heroes. we need people who show up regularly. And many of them.

          Absolutely correct. Many are quick to criticize the method of resistance as the problem when they’re completely missing the point that a national response of 5M out of a nation of 340M will change nothing.

          We need to engage the disengaged, not fight over the content of the protest.
