This is the third post i made today related to the wedding protests. I hope you people enjoy. I'm sharing these because many of the protesters behind it are getting arrested.
I'm glad you are. I love the "No Kings" slogan and that other countries are taking it up. I wish they would call the next protest in America "No Kings II, then whatever they were going to call it here." I guess we could could call it unofficially, "No Kings II."
UK here - dearly wish we would take up the No Kings thing... 😔
From the outside looking in, the pageantry of it all is probably why it sticks. You also have someone to talk about. We get the drama of US citizens and immigrants being sent to concentration camps or prisons in other countries.
Also outside looking in:
From what I’ve heard the royals bring in a lot of tourism money.. or used to anyway.. idk about this -ahem- new fella..
Just give him time, I'm sure people will start respecting him if he does a good job for 20-30 years
Why are the protestors getting arrested?
Italy has a fascist government, and the council of Venice is pro Bezos, claiming that somehow he has more right to rent Venice than its citizens have to live in it.
Ugh, that sucks.
Law after law the government is criminalizing protests. In St Mark's Square any non-authorized protest is prohibited so even a sit-in could result in breaking the law. Here's the moment they arrested someone in a wheelchair:
Not all heroes wear capes, and you’re a magnificent human for helping spread this content. It’s important.
Great work. Way to stick your neck out.
(Accidentally dropped the comment on the main post instead of this comment, oops)
Keep going, ~~King~~ buddy.
I hope knowing that people all over the world viscerally hate him damages his calm on an ongoing basis.
It's always projection with these people!
I haven’t been reading too much news lately. What is going on with Jeff Bezos and why are people protesting him? 
He's getting married in Venice with all of his friends there. People are protesting because Venice is pretty crowded with tourists and vulnerable to climate change. Also he's Jeff Bezos.
$20 million wedding in Venice.
Honestly, that doesn't strike me as a ton of money for his wedding. He must not care too much for this wife.
Most of the dowery went into her face
Wow, and it still failed.
With an absurd number of billionaires flying in on private jets to attend
And celebrities

Just as tonedeaf as them pretending "we're just like you" when COVID happened and they were forced to stay in their mansions as everyone struggled.

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez
Lmao well, I'd hope they went to the wedding
Yeah what a dumb part of the article lol. That being said, I'm sure there were more celebrities that managed to sneak in without being recognized
I don't even care who goes. It's a big party. Why not.
I love the publics response though. We need more of that.
And the orange menace's POS daughter is attending, as icing on the cake.
It's not the wedding. It's that he wanted to take over the entire centre of Venice.
This will come out nicely on the wedding pictures.
It's probably pretty easy to shop out
Love it!! Just needs a little Luigi emoji 👌
It's time for Led by Donkeys to get involved.
Cool. Give them where their hurts the Most: their ego
