I'm having an aneurysm reading these comments. Between the people confusing(or purposefully getting wrong) the use of the phrase "harm reduction" as being in relation to it's use in election/voting discourse and people criticizing protest tactics, I think we need to refocus here, especially on that(in my opinion) bigger issue that the comic brings up, in that privatization is being wielded as a weapon of the state. Perhaps we put a pin on that, and when we're in a better position and we can advocate for stronger legal protections for protesting even on private property(rather idealistic and naive I know).
Been waiting for that for about... 20 years now. Are we any closer? Seems like we're farther away than ever.
explanation for anyone wanting to know what the post actually means with ‘harm reduction’
