Please give examples
It's a little difficult to provide specific novel examples without doxxing myself (the whole "suppression by the media" thing), but heck there's plenty of examples even just from what's in the news media.
You say "plenty" but the LA June protests were for the most part the exception rather than the rule. Can we get something recent and/or from outside LA?
Sure, but man, it's kinda exhausting having a bunch of people jump on "sources please" when the initial comment was about how the lack of easily available reporting on this is a real problem.
I mean, even if they're not covered by most media someone somewhere has to be talking about them. At the very least leftwing media should be frothing at the mouth to cover these things. I guess your link ticks the "outside LA" box so this isn't/wasn't a LA-exclusive thing, but still I'd expect even a little reporting to filter through this information blackhole you're talking about if the resistance is on the scale you're suggesting. I looked up "anti ice protests violent" and most results were from June with the rest from early July.
Wow all the way back in June before the protests fizzled after accomplishing next to nothing
Just keep on shifting those goalposts, you'll get there eventually.
Whatever you gotta say to convince yourself I guess
But... you were the one that asked for convincing, I'm already convinced. I'm just choosing not to engage in a discussion about this topic because you're clearly not willing to approach it in good faith. I know it's kinda wounding to the ego when someone says "Nah I'm not doing this with you" but you're just going to have to accept that that's what's happening.

Thank you! I'm genuinely grateful you're being mature about it and moving on.
