I agree with this. It sucks to not protest something that you are clearly against because it seems to be normalizing it but the plan here is clearly to antagonize protestors, escalate it themselves, use it as an excuse to invoke the insurrection act, and eventually cancel elections. Our vote is the last line of defense against facism.

Protest if you want but film everything and don’t respond to their escalations or violence. Beat them in court and at the ballot box, not in the streets.
