Ok, but protests need to be done “without distraction”? That kind of defeats the purpose, doesn’t it?

The US Navy will convert its surplus oil rigs in the Pacific into active mobile military bases

The Navy has its own oil rigs?

It’s similar to how Adobe Illustrator works—if you leave the default compatibility options checked, saving in PDF or native AI format results in an identical file with the only difference being the filename extension.

So they’re using xenophobia to attack education, because xenophobia for its own sake isn’t evil enough.
