Clearly the No Kings protests struck a nerve. They sent a message and it appears it was received. [/quote]

I get the purpose behind the protests...but honestly...aside from making you feel better, what did it really solve? Sure, it proved that you did what you have the right to do...protest. But the protests are over and tomorrow it's back to work. Back to school.

It reminded Trump and his sycophants that many many Americans are paying attention and are angry. This is a democracy so it matters what the people think. [/quote]

Np here. I hate being so cynical, but we no longer live in a country where it matters what the people think. In normal times, leaders would see massive protests and offer some semblance of compromise or reassurance. If for no other reason, fear of not being re-elected. But the gop somehow does not seem concerned about future elections. The protests were great, but we need to follow that up with lasting changes. Get off of meta, X, Amazon. Don’t give money to red states, etc. Protesters need to be persistent. We need to fill McPherson Square with 500 protesters at all times, for starters. The press needs to stop giving them the coverage/attention they want and call them out on every lie, every time. The protests are a good start, but it should be a catalyst for resistance - not a one and done. [/quote]

There were 5 million Americans at 6 protest this weekend, 2% of the population.  And almost [u]double[/u] the protest numbers of May.

If our government refuses to listen, imagine what the July protests will look like.  Or August.[/quote]

THEY DO NOT CARE. Why don't you people get this? [/quote]
