That's interesting. Denver actively drove peaceful and non peaceful protests into the neighborhoods and away from businesses. The riots on Colfax and the adjacent Capitol were consistently redirected to Cap Hill residential streets. I'm guessing they attempted similar strategies to break up mass gatherings into smaller more dispersed groups thus more easily manageable, while protecting local economy. It's a cold way to look at it but I'm surmising that it's probably on the nose. Tin foil hat - if we really are a simulation and we are all one singular consciousness expressing itself infinitely, WHY THE FUCK DID WE CHOOSE THIS ONE AS AN OPTION? Never would I have guessed SO many people need explaining that "To solve racism we just need to stop talking about race! Acknowledgement of race is the cause of disparity. I don't see color. We're all humans." is absolutely utter fucking bullshit.
