Social No Kings national protest 10/18 - the end of Trump and MAGA?

NYC, LA, and Chicago, the biggest cities, Chicago and LA with ICE, national guard, etc, deployed, and the best they got was 100k? Like isn’t the whole city super pissed about not only Trump, but ICE, the NG being deployed, tariffs

I had posted the official reports of Phoenix, the 5th largest city and a libtard strong hold had 10-15k. The numbers just don’t add up to a million, let along 7

And like Chicago reporting 100k is laughable. Regardless of the comment on the tweet about of constitution prop being paid protestors, the volume of people is clearly not 100k lol





In Vegas, all I saw was a bunch of fat, dysgenic freaks stinking up the street for two hours before they slunk away pretending as if they had done anything of consequence.
Too much free time.

7 million is some pertinent number manufacturing (my opinion only) because of how fast it was widely spread and used by every source all at once. It will never be accurate anyways, people coulda just shown up bored to see what was happening, and not really given a shit (or still, in some cases -- been able to even explain what they were doing there, or WHY)

...but again, 7 mil = ~2.7% of all adults over 18 years old in the US (that number might be funny considering other "factors). It's not unrealistic, but it also doesn't track quite right.

Big turnout, zero momentum. The system shrugs -- the headlines fade, and the country stays split down the middle.... So I'm not sure why either side is calling it a win or loss. We know this all day every day from 24/7 mass media telling us how either side is whacko and wrong lol
 
Mobilization, visibility, and message amplification -- yup, they did just that. But that's also a flash mob/photo op claiming a win kinda mindset.

I'm not here to play semantics ; So: massive turnout, emotional support + visibility, (preplanned) media dominance (and now some manipulation after the fact) -- all wins on the cultural level right? -- But the architecture of power didn’t even blink, so by definition that would be a structural loss -- as there really isn't a 1,2, followup combo?

So.... a good photo op to remind a populace that what... we're more divided than ever? That both sides are literally unwilling to budge or work with the other? Well I got 24/7 365 news and mainstream media to shove that in peoples faces all day every day ; it's their FUCKIN JOB.

You see where I'm comin' from, or do you wanna just slap another label on me and move on?

The whole point was to show that millions across the US are opposed to Trump and his steady creep of authoritarianism.

Yes, it was a photo op.

What more do you want from people saying "I'm against this?"

That is real protest, true protest, that is protest in spirit.

"It didn't look organic, it looked staged" is an absolutely abysmal take. Of course it was staged, it was planned for months. The only thing I can assume is you wanted/expected something more - a bit of violence, disorder, to really show the strength of feeling?

Come on. Grow up.

All those people that went out stand against Trump and against authoritarianism. It's remarkable that so many showed up in good spirit and the best we get is right wing morons minimizing it and "centrists" saying they weren't very robust.

Fuck off. It wasn't meant to be robust. It wasn't a rebellion. They weren't overthrowing anything like the Jan 6 cosplayers thought they were. They were protesting.

No right minded person would ever, should ever, condemn or minimize protest unless they're aligned with the status quo.

This man has never fucking worked a day in his life 😂
 
I will never understand why season 2 gets so much hate, it's so damned good.

It was pretty realistic to those of us that work in the logistics industry david simon did research or knew dock workers or stevedores as they call them on the east coast. We all knew a ziggy or frank sobotka.
 
It could have been 5 at each of the 30 individual protests in New Hampshire, who gives a fuck?

These idiots showing us a picture and saying how many turned out in a city or state that organized dozens of separate protests using one protest as evidence are dumb as horseshit.

There isn't any escaping that. If you're consuming that right now and feeling like the nationwide protest failed because maybe one area of Phoenix had a few thousand, you're as stupid as them.
I don’t think it “failed”. I also don’t know what it hoped to succeed in.

I think, from what I see, it was a lame, mostly older white, driven protest which lasted a midafternoon.

Yup. And keep in mind, the 7 million was released before Saturday, it was what they were projecting the turn out to be.

Rachel Maddow even had a documentary special Friday night to hype this up…. So is it no surprise MSNBC played footage from years ago to mislead their viewers, and was parroted anrkjnd aa fact about the turnout, thus also lying about how impactful someone like Rachel Maddow is.

But imagine projecting 7 million and clearly struggling to top a million. And that is being generous. All when Trump is tariffing, deploying ICE and NG gestapo, weaponizing justice, destroying civil rights.

will be interesting to see what democrats do this week, based off internal polling

And it had millions more people come out than the last one. There will be another closer to the election, and based on his track record so far, after Trump has desecrated the Constitution in who knows how many more ways. The goal is to mobilize people to vote in 2026.

So again, you suggest I want violence, tell me to fuck off. I praised the effort and numbers and support peaceful protest.... you need some help in the head or something?

Crowds prove outrage, not influence. Without a plan beyond marching, it’s noise -- not leverage. Dismissing critics as “morons” or “centrists” doesn’t change jack shit -- it just literally affirms what I said with unwillingness to work across this LOVELY 2-party bullshit.

Movements that last translate that momentum and emotion into a structure and that follows with a plan + pressure.... Without that, your "good spirits" fade --and power stays where it is.

... a political "queef in the wind" -- a brief, noisy moment that dissipates fast and changes nothing?

I mean, I can see why there would be people proud of that. Big turnout + zero follow-through = gone with the breeze.

Just trying to help either side out here, 'cause there's also a lot of pissed off people such as myself that think both yer parties are batshit insane.

I never knew anybody that killed a fuck by giving it liquor.
 
No lmao. Nobody is triggered.

We're just pointing out that you responded to somebody out of the blue talking about that when neither one of you had mentioned it. It's weird as fuck.

I do not think trannies should be in women's sports what so ever you lmao. However, I'd never hyper obsess about it to the point of bringing up at random because somebody mentioned gay people. Fucking weird lol.

But hey what can you expect from a cuck.
Yellow looks good on you sherbro.
 
In America you depose presidents by a process called impeachment. Ok. That was important information and not at all a master suppression technique.
Of course, most of the demonstrators don't even want to bother with that process since they know they have neither the case nor the majorities. But whatever.


I know... :rolleyes:


He has done nothing unconsitutional .Since, you know, the constitution hasn't prevented him. Except when it has.


There are 27 amendments to your constitution. That means you've had 11 presidents who wanted to be kings, since they didn't respect the current constitution. Worst of them by far was George Washington.

Yeah, Trump hasn't done that.

I'm starting to get the sense you are unable to think independently. Less alibis, more arguments please.


Well there sure are on-message, aren't they?

Weird. I thought he was a dictator.

Those are quotes from the highest people of the execute branch in his own cabinet.

The people that worked closely with his for four years.

Not an expression of my opinion.
