It’s psychologically healthy to see so many others who feel like you and who will go to the trouble of standing outside for a while to express to others that things aren’t right.

I dare anyone with a defeatist attitude to go to a protest and come back underwhelmed.

We get a lot of bot posts here. They are designed to make us feel psychologically defeated. Protests are the antidote to this.
