Hello everyone and welcome to A Pretty Normal Podcast, a show that re-imagines what society considers normal. Each week I interview different guests about the topics they’re most passionate about. This week I wanted to focus my monologue on the protests occurring all over the United States and around the world. While there are definitely more than plenty of bad actors and selfish people latching themselves onto these protests, my goal was not to rant about why they shouldn't be protesting in the first place, but instead tell them that they are focusing their energy towards the wrong goals. With no arrests happening, (where would you even put people right now) and the advice of the medical community not deterring them, the protesters should instead start to protest actual injustices in our system. Keep that same energy when it comes to our greedy for profit healthcare system. If you're going to protest, at least make it something worth protesting over. I also discuss how societies mindset that welfare is "government handouts" and is "un-american" has lead to unnecessary complaining and astroturf protesting. Let me know what you think about the protests over on social media @aprettynormalpodcast.Citation:Coronavirus: The US resistance to a continued lockdown‘We cannot keep going this way.’ SLO County residents protest shelter-at-homeIt is time to cancel student debt and make higher education free Feds order Alex Jones to stop selling phony coronavirus curesThe coronavirus’s unpredictable impact on next year’s health insurance rates, explained  Thank you to everyone who supports the show and has shared the show with a friend or a loved one. Subscribe to the show and follow us on Facebook // Instagram // Twitter // YoutubeRemember to leave us a rating and review if you enjoy the content brought to you every week.
