The self-immolation, the most non-violent form of protest, no longer works. After Aaron Bushnell that I have heard about, there ware two more attempts that I didn’t. (Matt Nelson and Samuel Mena Jr)

Recent events have shown us that violent protest still works, but it got me thinking; When was the last time someone resigned from position of power due to social pressure?

I have this hunch that shame worked in the past, but now PR departments and relentless pursuit of money has removed social acceptance from an equation.

    That makes it less not more of an issue. Comedian with a comedy picture. A comedian should certainly get this type of foolery and its benefit. I thought it was a soldier because of the flak jacket honestly but I guess all of them were given them just in case.

        Again if it was a guy and cupping the balls it would have never been a thing. Its not an excuse because they are a comedy troop. Look. We each have opinions on these and we each think each others is shit and we are not going to convince each other. If it was a bar conversation we would go talk with other people and that is what im going to do now. Im not going to convince you and you not me. We are of two different camps on this.
