I don't think I have ever seen this many protests, in this many countries, about this many things, and with so many people participating in my entire life. Either it's being covered more or there is a lot of people that are sick of getting fucked over and ignored.
I'm curious how it compares to the Iraq War protests on February 15th, 2003.

Also, perhaps if you're younger you just happened to miss out on those ones. I remember them, and they were all about preventing the War in Iraq happening. It happened anyway, for what it's worth.
Yeah, I was like 7 when those were going on so I have context for anything like this.
