    The last No Kings rally in October drew crowds of nearly seven million people nationally

    I wonder if this one will beat it.

      The early estimates were for upward of nine million this time.

      There’s a hard Red Congresswoman representing Staten Island, NY.

      Getting rid of Blue state GOPs will give the Dems a majority in the House.

    Can we start directing these toward ice detention centers?

      I understand what you’re saying and feeling, but don’t think direct action is feasible without a large coordinated group of people working together.

      There may come a day that a mobs that size are needed to exert physical force. I see these massive protests as exercising the core orchestration and massing that we’ll need some day. That day isn’t today, but the better we get the better we’ll be on that day. I see this as exercise.

        Of course, no pressure whatsoever, we don’t have a crazy person with the nuke codes threatening the world.

        What’s the issue here, Americans are too stupid to put alcohol in a bottle? You don’t want to get hurt?

            Right, this is a localised problem that doesn’t happen anywhere else. Protesting is not a thing outside amerikkka. I’m getting jerked off while drinking hot chocolate and strawberries and writing poems on how good the place I’m living is.

              “Protesting is not a thing outside of America”

              The French are going to be pissed.

                If amerikans didn’t do it, it doesn’t exist yet. They are the best of best, surely they’ll figure out how to protest.

          americans are fucking stupid. look at the countless articles of “american man’s life ruined by trump, still supports trump.” it’s absolutely mind-boggling

          i am also skeptical that a critical mass of people will do anything beyond peaceful protesting, and if they do, it’s probably too late. they’re still posting their shit on social media, which, surprise-- everything you post is now indexed and cross referenced by trump’s NSA/FBI/DHS/DOJ/CIA etc.

          this is why they want AI, and if/when the AI “bubble” pops, it’ll be your tax dollars bailing them out, just like the banks in 2008. is your face at a protest showing up online? guess what, they’ve got your name and address.

          tl;dr: yes. americans are fucking stupid. but worse than that, they lack the willingness to go the molotov route.

            Dude yeah. Everything I have ever said since I was 12 (i am 40 now) is likely saved somewhere and can be used for AI to compile a profile on me. Shit is crazy bro.
