She's willing to dishonor the memory of her son by blaming all foreigners for her son's death.

I don't know about that specifically, but he believes in simulation theory and thinks he's the only human playing, and therefore the main character.

My advice in that case is to immediately plant some trees around the perimeter of your property and turn it into a little isolated grove

No, I'm saying that Stonewall was a singular event in a larger movement. I'm saying that indiscriminate disruption only turns everyday people against a cause as you are making their days worse. I'm saying that choosing your targets and your disruptive protestors to be disruptive is a skill.

Several months before Rosa Parks chose to sit at the front of a bus, an unmarried pregnant young black lady did the same thing. The Civil Rights movement chose not to elevate her and make her arrest a big deal, because it wouldn't have been bad optics. They waited and picked a nice old lady coming back from work, someone unimpeachable to turn into a national story. They didn't say "all protest is good protest" and throw their entire weight behind a figurehead that could be easily torn down.

So if you think all protest is good protest, then by all means, put on your "Palestine lives matter" T-shirt and start throwing rocks through people's windows in broad daylight. Your cause is so just that people won't help but join you, right?

I'm not writing the whole history of the gay rights and civil rights movement, do your own research, but I'll share this article for an overview:

Reagan was a fucking actor that was reading lines, shooting him would have done nothing. They'd just find a new electable moron to read the party's script.
