letting corporations buy up all the current urban housing & turning everyone into renters, while you drive an hour outside any major city & there are open fields for 10s of miles between each house.

I think we're agreeing in that it's a class war more than anything else. If the poor class wasn't increasing by leaps and bounds, no one would need a change.

I like the "No Kings" slogan and I think our forefathers would agree.

Exactly. Corporations have driven up the cost of housing & corralled a significant portion of the populace into overcrowded urban areas where they own the housing & keep raising rent higher than ever before, lobbying & buying politicians to keep wages low, demanding people commute 2 hours each day with rush hour traffic, having police ignore crime in & target marginalized communities & people while protecting the rich & rural areas, etc. The list goes on & on. Like I said, have those protestors spread out to rural communities. Watch what happens.
