If you approve, please share.

Or if you know of better ones, please share. It would be nice if these were pinned somewhere. These seem to be rapidly evolving.

In a weekly or monthly period, it will make zero difference.

does send a message.

The people protesting drumphf & eloon in general, then in this particular manner see themselves *reflected in numbers*; and probably more than would be in a matrch, or rally!

That gives people another boost of energy, and reason to continue.

(we know some people have the mental, and emotional construct to continue fighting no matter what, and bless them. They will possibly be the catalyst that will bring about the changes desired by the larger group, either by themselves, or by reigniting those who have given up.)
