A monument to our collective attention span.. Defund Police, BLM, #AbolishICE, Trans Rights... so many retreats in just five years.
A weird kind of amnesia where the public conversation seems to just move on, leaving the original problems to fester. Collective outrage captured and defanged by the systems it's meant to challenge. Rapid mobilization followed by equally rapid political and social retreat..
As soon as i saw this i flashed on the Berlin Wall prior to 1989. The western side was covered with imaginative graffiti. The West Berlin government didn't interfere.

"Fuck your fence" might be the most polite civil disobedience sign I saw in years.
