Okay, so there's this story going around about a Michigan autoworker. He flipped off Donald Trump when Trump came to visit, and now people are raising money to support him. It seems like his little act of rebellion really struck a chord with other workers who feel like politicians ignore them. Local folks got some donation things going because they think the worker should be supported for speaking his mind – something they think a lot of people in the town are feeling.
This whole thing shows how even a small thing can become a big deal. Some people think it's about free speech and the right to protest without getting in trouble. Others see it as a sign of the growing gap between regular workers and the big shots. Whatever your politics, the fact that these fundraisers took off so fast tells you how strong feelings are these days.
