The Trump administration brushed aside decades of precedent when it ordered Columbia University to oust the leadership of an academic department, a demand seen as a direct attack on academic freedom and a warning of what’s to come for other colleges facing federal scrutiny.
How are you guys not marching on Washington yet?
There’s been hundreds of protests. The national media isn’t covering them but there have been protests in every state capital and major city. Republicans have stopped doing town halls. France is the size of Texas and Paris is a few hours (by train) from Marseille. Los Angeles is like a 6 hour flight from DC. It’s a lot harder to have one big protest here than in geographically smaller countries.
It’s 1200 miles away…
Even if I could afford it it’s not exactly a day trip.
Seattle, WA to DC is over 2750mi (~4425km).
Easier said than done when the possibility of a bullet is on the other end of that protest.
Because they thrive on the attention and it is expensive, dangerous, and a complete waste of time.
