The Sonic Boom Protests were a series of protests against how in Sonic Boom, Sonic had blue arms. Yes, really. The protests were done by Christian Weston Chandler, better known as Chris Chan. What he did was he went to GameStop and vandalized the Sonic Boom posters in order to make Sonic’s arms tan. When he was asked to stop, he said “Don’t call anybody!” and maced an employee. Because GameStop workers definitely programmed the games and made Sonic’s arms tan, Chris.
He also attempted to get people to boycott the game, thinking others were pissed about the arm color change. However, only weens joined him.
Ironically, Chris’ first drawing of Sonic had, you guessed it, blue arms.

Get the Sonic Boom Protestsmug. Protesting doesn't really do anything, it's always going to end up being someone other than the protestors in charge at the end of the day, and that person is always going to try and calm them. What's the point? It's a waste of everyone's time and nothing changes.
The people in charge along with everybody who is not in charge and also not part of the protests laugh at protestors. At least everybody not protesting is getting something accomplished that day, or those days (and nights).

Get the Protestingmug. Here's why they are dumb...
Hym "Right but the problem with your uncivil protests is that the government doesn't give a shit if Wal-Mart's windows get busted because 'ThEy HaVe InSuRaNcE!' The people you collectively have a problem with aren't the ones paying the price for your discontent because you aren't even GOING TO WHERE THEY ARE. And now that you've framed protesting AT THE ACTUAL PLACE WHERE THE PEOPLE YOU ARE PROTESTING ARE as an 'Insurrection' and 'violence bad' the people responsible for the collective discontent are never even affected by the thing you're doing to other people who are not them. It's like a peasant revolt where the peasants burn down everything EXCEPT FOR THE KING'S CASTLE and then just go home. It doesn't work. What are you going to do? Replace the guy who says he believes the things you believe with another guy who claims to believe what you believe? 2 or 4 years from now? That's already been happening. 'If OnLy It WaSn'T fOr ThE oThEr GuY!' you'll perpetually cry but YOU'RE already were you are. You're an object in motion. So, it doesn't really matter is it doesn't work. But you know what does work (and I'm not advocating for this) 100% of the time? The threat of hammer clowns. In theory. They are the only thing keeping us safe. Hammer clowns and the threat of hammer clowns. Just look at Afghanistan. Their hammer clowns won and now they need new hammer clowns or be ruled by taliban indefinitely. If only they were amenable to reason.... Hmm... Tragic... Oh well..."

Get the Spanish Protestmug. Protesting a Confederate statue is not the same thing as protesting the death of a man in 2020. The death of George Floyd happened in Minnesota, a northern state, and was unrelated to the Civil War. The average soldier in the civil war wasnt fighting to defend slavery, since they weren't wealthy enough to own slaves. These were poor and middle class soldiers who were mostly concerned about their own families way of life, and not soldiers who thought that slavery or the way of life of a wealthy slaveowner was right. The civil war wasnt really about slavery in the first place, slavery just became Lincoln's public relations campaign cause to gain popular support so he could get control of the southern states back. Lincoln didnt really care about whether people were enslaved or not, yet black people treat him as a hero, and treat anything that even symbolizes the confederacy as the enemy because of what it represents, and not because any of these privates or enlisted confederate soldiers actually did any wrong to their people. It was the wealthy slaveowners and the slave traders who displaced them, tortured them, killed them, and sometimes the KKK, and with many unknown identities in the KKK, theres not much way to know whether many of the KKK had had any ties to the confederate army.
Statue protests are about as far off the subject of george floyd's death as you can get, but a lot of people want to think of anything and everything they hate at one time, instead of focusing on what they're really protesting for in the first place. People who think what was done to george floyd was wrong dont have to agree that anything else a protestor thinks must also be true because they're still angry about george floyd and lockdown all at once. A confederate statue outside of a courthouse is not the same thing as putting up a confederate statue in a black neighborhood, it wasnt put there for the reason some black people are saying it was put there, to stir them up. Theres a reason a statue of MLK is across the street from a confederate statue, if you want one removed, you might as well want them both removed, and say they all upset people too much to be remembered or heard about.
