    Not so much a chant or a sign but once I went to a protest of the war in Afghanistan. First there was a planning meeting. The people “organizing” this protest knew absolutely zero about how to get anything done.

    Eventually I nominated myself to write a few bullet points on the board, then ask people who was gonna be in charge of what thing.

    They were blown away. Asking how I knew how to do that.

    Then later, we had the actual march. Our column was completely surrounded by police the entire time. Like we were a big rectangle going through the streets of Chicago, and the outer layer of that rectangle was a solid wall of officers.
