And this is after they "cancelled" it.
SODA!
I do see people's point about America just being such a passive or incredibly violent country. But, when I went out to the protest, I did notice that you had anarchist, grannies and liberals in the same setting. So we gotta watch and see what happens over time. But I mean, I think collective suffering is going to push people to the edge. Which eventually will awaken something, I hope. In the meantime, I have my eyes set on Europe. At least the cheeseburger kings bday party was an absolute flop. You can see it in his face. Trump is such a little baby bitch.
Big kudos to the No Kings protestors. The parade for Krasnov received what is deserved, it was fucking lame.
Hahahha. I see on Russian forums - they call organization a "communal farm style", and that it looked more like a prisoner of war walk.
Republicans should be terrified at this point. The protests are peaceful ... for now.
...nah man, they're just itching for an excuse to roll out deadly force and mass voter suppression...
As someone now living in Europe, I find the US protests mild and small. When Europeans protest, they protest. I mean, my native Greece saw a massive protest in Feb, well over a million went out, in a country of ~9 million. This is how you do it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tm3vEKMnA-8
You're basically watching a whole country (re)learn how to do this. Most of us have had it good for a long time, up until very recently. You're seeing a lot of first-timers in every one of these protests, as the movement grows. Give it time.
What you're failing to understand is the USA is so gigantic that you can't really get people that don't have a lot of money in one spot easily. It's costly to fly/drive to one place. Greece is tiny in comparison. We had people protesting in the millions throughout the USA this weekend but not all together in the same place as I said it's just too damn expensive.
Are you going to help pay to organize that sort of thing or just not think about the logistics of it all and say random things on the internet because you possibly dislike the USA or something and just felt like taking a little internet jab? USA citizens have had enough and were trying to organize everywhere we can. Greece isn't even bigger than Texas which is just 1 of the 50 states to put it into perspective for you.
Anyways keep it up USA I'm rooting for you guys to pull through "I have friends everywhere"
Also here's a tidbit of the protests this weekend https://i.imgur.com/vR41TqH.gifv
Also fact check as of this post it was the third most attended protest in USA history https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_protests_and_demonstrations_in_the_United_States_by_size
...and in France we get maimed by tear gas grenades and rubber bullets for it. Yay.
The problem, the Americans work too much. If they had the vacation days like the Europeans, these protests would turn French. The demonstrations in Germany are weak compared to the French too.
Now that's a beautiful protest. Very nice, MN!
That looks like a bigger crowd than trump's birthday war parade.
Might be a bigger crowd than Trump's inauguration too
