Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Organizers get a permit to protest on a Saturday afternoon on the Capitol lawn. The protest takes place between 2pm and 4:30pm. People wear pink hats and have RBG signs. The crowd peacefully disperses by 4:45pm. On the way home they all feel satisfied that their voices have been heard.

They get beaten by cops anyway (the same ones they praised on January 6) and Trump sends in the national guard

Biden would still be President though if they march before the inauguration, so he would be the one sending in the National Guard. Perfect way to capstone a presidency that came in to power with the energy of a mass protest movement behind it.
