Fair. I can only speak about my lived experience. It may have faded from the public eye, but when I was living in the states, just saying the word "kneel" would have gotten half the population frothing at their mouth.

Yeah, I think I would've have gotten it in 2019, but kneeling definitely isn't at the top of my mind as a form of protest. And even at the time it seemed odd to me because kneeling is almost always interpreted as a show of respect.
