I’ve participated in in-person protests with various groups about a dozen times a year since 2020 and I don’t even live in a city. People are definitely out here protesting, we just don’t get any media coverage at all unless we break things.

I guess this what I’m afraid of, but things must have felt pretty scary during the first cold war - Imagine raising children while governments were openly testing fusion weapons!
I think that music is part of giving people inspiration and hope. Does tiktok just filter out the protest to keep us scrolling?

Excuse me, GenX chiming in. We had that exact same list, with the sort-of-maybe exception of climate change (pollution was really really bad though). Then again , we had the daily doom of nuclear war on our heads.
