i assume these were mostly civilians who thought 'Country is getting lost. I am here and I need to do something, but I don't know exactly what. So I will just walk forward and hope for the best."

Selfies came from the temporary high of thinking they are successful - natural reaction to seeing the opposition give ground.

A lot of people are underestimating the power of what happened today and that the only blood shed was of the unarmed. This is not a drill. Media LARPing that this is Trump's waterloo are trying to hide the psychological power of this - storming the Capitol on the critical faux-certification day IS a victory and its in Jesus's name.

I feel angry and motivated. but its a different anger than I felt before - one I expect will last decades if necessary
