Yeah, no.

It was kind of insane.

And then the No Kings was kind of like everyone.

People brought their dogs to the No Kings protest.

Yeah, those ones were kind of... But it was nice.

It was nice to see everyone get to come together.

Because not everyone can do the protest before that.

You've never been to a protest?

They're actually really fun.

I love them.

I've been going to protests since I was a little kid.

Wow.

And, well, something about, like, me and Zia, I feel like our friendship really blossomed through those protests.

Because there's something about it.

Okay.

No, we met when Charlie Kirk came to USC.

Got it, got it.

come and they will try to intervene for no reason the goal is to expose that and to touch people with that so that people can see something that's happening and there's something so beautiful about just like you know we see all this stuff online like obviously you know we're reading comments we're seeing people support we're getting dms yeah and those things are meaningful and interesting but when you really actually like are in just like

like a mass crowd of humans that are just like, we care enough about this shit that we're going to leave our houses, risk our own personal safety to be out here and show that we're not okay with this.

To see everyone else's passion mixed with your own, to see the tension, to feel those emotions.
