Trump rally in Tulsa causing an earthquake and demonstrating a case study

[Spaced]

I think looking back just a few years or decades from now people will just think of how absurdly dumb people were and what the reasoning was for people to form gigantic crowds shoulder to shoulder claiming that the lives of one particular ethnic group mattered as a result of one person being killed..hundreds of miles away from where the majority of the protests even happened.

...During a plague that is spread by people being in close contact.

These people are going to be remembered as tremendously self-important on a truly dangerous level.

How do people look back on the civil rights movements of the 60s?

That brought good changes but this has enabled a lot of rioters to burn and loot communities which people can say all they want about how that wasn't the protestors themselves but the fact is that they enabled the thieves. Knowingly. This will bring some positive changes but for the most part I think it's foreign governments that need their overreach checked more than a lot of places in the U.S.

These protestors can force political institutions to be more politically correct but I bet the KKK or white supremacists have their numbers swelling right now. You can't force people to not be racist, and by enabling rioting I bet tons of people are feeling validated in their ugly racism by thinking "that's why I don't want those kind in my town."

I think you'll find that all the things you mentioned happened in the 60s as well. The rioting, the fires, the looting, the upsurge in KKK / white supremacist sentiment. None of that takes away from the fact that direct action by the people on the streets was able to affect positive social change. The same is happening now because the what was accomplished then then was not enough.

It's not about political correctness. As Unity100 pointed out, political correctness, progressivism, identity politics, etc. are liberal political ideas employed by those in the center of the political spectrum that actually stifle and confound true social progress.

There is a middle path in the Law of One cosmology, Ra refers to it as 'the sinkhole of indifference.'

edit: I bet this point will be controversial but all I'm stating is that this was probably the worst time a group of people could choose to cause economic damage and joblessness during a pandemic allowing it to spread and evolve. There are a lot of unseen forces at work in any event of this magnitude but looking back I will wonder who in their right mind would actually think of this as the perfect timing? Oh yeah it's what everyone needed.

As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot.
