Parkland survivor and anti-NRA gun control activist David Hogg helped organize a protest of Publix supermarkets, which resulted in the grocery chain quickly caving in. During a “die-in” at a Publix, Hogg saw something that troubled him:
Literally perfect symbolism of America’s indifference to gun violence.

Proof of “America’s indifference to gun violence”? YOU be the judge:

Maybe there’s a simpler way to explain what’s really going on in that picture other than “indifference to gun violence”:

or maybe a woman who just wants some fruit from the store but whiny children are in her way to do so https://t.co/XmEwFwi2Pj

But we’re intrigued by “literal symbolism.”
Anyone dense enough to think symbolism can be literal would also be dense enough to tweet this: https://t.co/FLcYBwOEa5

Perfect symbolism of America’s indifference to daily “protests”. Go about your business, step over the protesters, and get on with surviving. https://t.co/jF0yttQEet

Literally perfect symbolism of what grownups often do in grocery stores vs. what children often do in grocery stores. https://t.co/HEvY8E2m3d

Literally a perfect symbol of America's indifference to people lying on dirty grocery store floors. https://t.co/j5vgapfawY

Good luck with the “if you don’t stop shopping because there are people lying on the floor you’re complicit in mass murder” approach.
