Especially if it's peaceful protest.

Gotta build the narrative that these are disruptive individuals. If they won't do it themselves, the universities and states will just lie and hope that it will be enough to sway public opinion against the protestors.

This. At the end of the day, these people treat the Republican party like their primary religion. They will say whatever keeps eyes off them so they can do stuff without criticism, but once they're in the ballot box, it's going to be really hard for them to leave that spot blank, let alone to vote for Biden.

Girl scouts may be wrong here, but they're still by far a better organization than the boy scouts.

There's something to be said for the skills that are taught and the overall purported ethos, but like the Catholic church, you absolutely cannot trust them to not cover up heinous shit that they'll allow to continue forever.

If you do, make sure you're present all the time and be aware that predators have found a home there since their inception.

 

A group of scientists in China have created an ultra-slippery toilet bowl that can repel almost any type of liquids or solids.
