I’m accidentally going to Chicago during the DNC next week (hexbear.net)

My partner and I have a short break next week and some credit card points so we decided to go to Chicago since we’ve never been. Totally forgot the DNC is happening at the same time. We’ve already booked flights and hotel and stuff damn it. At least if something funny happens I’ll be there for the history of it.

Any recommendations for things to do/see in Chicago? Also I’m hoping there are some Gaza protests we can join, anyone know of any going on?

If you happen to stumble into any shenanigans, I can tell you that the-pigs are more than pleased to use tear gas and enjoy watching the results, and that was 25 years ago. It's worse now.
