  • Largest protest ever in the US

    From Joseph Pereira@1:124/5016 to All on Mon Oct 20 06:23:19 2025

    The "No Kings" protests in the US last Saturday brought out 7 million Americans in some 2,700 locations. Trump can be proud. The largest protest gathering ever, and all of it caused by him.

    It clearly shows that many Americans regret voting for him, or not voting at all. Trump's approval rating is also extremely low, at 31%.

    But... 31% of people still say they agree with what Trump and his cronies are doing.

    An erosion of democracy, the removal of the guarantees of the rule of law, the erosion of Social Security, the removal of health insurance for 20 million Americans, the deployment of the military in cities, and the criminalization of opposition. These are just a few of the issues at stake.

    31% still agree with this.

    Then I seriously ask myself: what kind of society does the 31% want?
