Im not doing the research just now to pull this together, as this is your thread, but I have noticed two things: some solidarity encampments are still there until cleared out, and that the clearing out process verges on the savage.
Two more things: Authoritarians really get triggered, and Mr. Policeman has been trained to be violent.
