There was a broad coalition of leftist, anti-racist, anarchist and pacifist groups organizing in Charlottesville, along with a lot of mainstream liberals. (I think you mean NC for pulling down the statue? The folks around the clergy appear to be International Workers of the World based on their flags.) I try to absorb a lot of what those groups are saying, as well as the spectrum of right-wing commentary from mainstream conservatives, the alt-right, the “alt-light” guys who somehow also sell people diet pills, and the straight up white nationalists, white supremacists, neo-Confederates and Nazis.

Democracy is pretty cool. We should try it some time. Voting rights, science policy, political communication and grassroots activism.
