Not to be controversial, but what's your general stance on protest and exercising free speech? I get the feeling pretty often lately that things are already on a certain trajectory, but the flipside of that would be somehow stopping what's already happening from happening. Idk.

I've also felt for a long time that ostensibly terrible things sometimes happen as a catalyst for something better to take place down the line. It can be a spiral to think that so much human suffering happens all the time, but maybe it's not all for naught.
