Was born in 1968 (old fart I know), so I like to think 68 is important. But seems to be BIG diff in 68 comparisons fr those who remember it

I think there's inclination to say we're in time of clusterfuck, but to degree that's true the protests/terror/violence aren't it.

They're part of it. They are inescapably part of it, and they're inflecting larger politics in a lot of slow, subtle ways.

Yup. But not as big a part as in '68. Other things are bigger here, IMO. (Partly US bias ignores 2008 hangover, refugees)

I think it depends who you are and where you are. In the checked I run in, they're definitional.

Assuming you're still referring back to first tweet, are they definitional for as many/same kinds of people now?

Put it this way: if 16 as bad as 68, if BLM etc not abt peaceful protest, if US less diverse, Trump might win. Still think doesn't
