    they'll cover it breathlessly once they can paint it as rioting and looting. until then, it just doesn't make the cut.

        It was so fucking obnoxious, so infuriating, and in retrospect so obviously in bad faith. I have so much anger over how they treated us. Some good things came out of it. The rolling jubilee projects helped some people. but mostly it just got crushed by the media as much as by the state.
