    Is that a serious question? Do you seriously think MLK Jr is just ‘anyone’ on the subject of protests?

      He doesn’t get to redefine anything any more than anyone else. Protest by definition does not include interference with the flow of other’s lives.

      Period.

        Got it, so all the protests for US labor laws, for the end of segregation, and for the end to Apartheid South Africa are all not protests by your definition. Because they interfered with the flow of other’s lives.

        I strongly suggest you read any of the works of MLK Jr or his autobiography. Because you fundamentally misunderstand the point of nonviolent protests against injustice

          Cool story. At the end of the day, the blowhard got canceled. So it looks like a net positive in my eyes.

          Enjoy your evening.
