The final count for No Kings was over 5 million. Glad a bunch of folks that only work 30 hours a week can be at their commin protest point within hours and complain that Americans barely keeping their heads above water have low numbers just because our country is massive.
It would have taken me 5 hours to get to my state capitol where I am from, and even if half the state came, as huge as it is, that would still be only 2.5 million in a place that is barely on the map. We would have to shut down the entire state for a day just so people could take off work for the travel alone. Thos country is HUGE! I would like to protest chicago, but it would take at least 6 hours for me to get there from my location. Washington DC is about 14.5 hours away. And I am just talking one-way. There is lots of empty space here, with wildly different cultures on each side of those spaces. Greece is like the size of Alabama, but if you protested in Alabama, you are protesting in cities that do not get a lot of attention. I would bet you can not name one city there. Want to know why? Because nobody cares.
Shit is hitting the fan this week in Chicago. We have protested and protested and protested. That 50501 number was just for the No Kings protest. Of course the news never makes it to all of you. You might all get to see the civil war you wanted so badly. But we’ll lose. This wil be a slaughter if it pops off.

5 million is nothing in country of 300+ million. In Greece, last February, 4 million people hit the streets, in a country of 10 million.
