For those who don't know, riots broke out across America as a result of the rise in police brutality towards African Americans, namely George Floyd who died by choking while a white police officer knelt on his neck. Disgraceful.

Since then, US riot police have taken to the streets, and nationwide unrest is at large.

Feeling empathy towards the American protesters, the Lebanese have created a new trending hashtag and it's نصائح_للثوار_بأميركا# (Advice to American Protesters).

Within a few hours, the hashtag became #1 in Lebanon trends and reached 15.6M viewers.
