Shouldn't this say something like "are you doing something?". It seems like everyone is busy calling out everyone else for not doing something. Like I guess collectively everyone is pretty aligned to allow democratic principles to fail in the United States. Everybody is is waiting for some imaginary person or group to come safe them while they keep going to work, laugh at super bowl ads, etc.
This is a good point, but keep in mind many of us are taking action in whatever way we can. For some of us, that might just look like spilling a drink during a traffic stop or taking a bit longer to find our drivers license to consume the cop's time. I'm in a slightly better position to do more, but can't discuss it. There are in fact people with enough connections to form affinity groups who can access transport to DC. I'm not one of them. So perhaps an even better title is: "Are we all doing the best we can to stop this to the best of our ability?"
