Aaéro, I’m not good at social media conversations, because they aren’t dialogic and so much gets lost when not in person. My short reply is that I hope you’ll be curious about and reflect on the limitations and dangers of liberalism—evidenced in *even* the slogan “No Kings” slogan, which harks back to some golden age (that never existed) of states and presidents being good (aka somehow not inherently embodiments of structural and systemic violence). It hides/ignores that we’re not—on the ground—confronting a monarchy but rather fascism.

Also, I’d ask that you not keep posting comments arguing, in essence, for liberal and nationalist displays like No Kings. I feel weary enough, and prefer to be inspired by acts of do-it-ourselves mutual aid, solidarity, and collective care.
