But it was a close run thing in my view and if *everyone* had given into that pressure, and progressives had gone to America with an “actually looting is good” message or built CHAZ-style zones in every city we’d have a much less happy outcome today. — PolitiTweet.org

I think it’s telling that once the looting stopped nobody was publishing takes calling for it to start again. Nobody actually thinks smashing random windows is good politics. But when it was happening a lot of people thought it was inappropriate to point that out. — PolitiTweet.org
