Politicians want us to believe politics will solve everything, not acts of rebellion, civil disobedience whatever.....I’m not advocating for a side here, just pointing out that politicians want to control the narrative to make themselves look good.
JFK considered MLK to be a political enemy because civil disobedience was not Kennedy’s plan to deal with racial issues in the US. Kennedy wanted an incremental and slow approach to racial segregation (aka politics).
The people at the Oregon refuge right now have put in a moneky wrench in the politicians control of events and messaging.
This whole country was founded on both civil disobedience and acts of rebellion.
