Yeah same, Americans are finally kind of getting off their asses and doing something. I don’t think it’s gonna be enough but it’s better than nothing.

    Crowds like this have been protesting for months. I saw similar images from various cities at the first 50501 protest. As another commenter posted, media simply hasn’t been covering them.

    Please don’t confuse a lack of coverage for a lack of protests.

    There were even protests in my tiny town. People have been protesting a lot. Hell, they had a massive one in LA just this week. Anyone who says Americans have not been protesting needs to find different media sources unless the ones used are not meant for international coverage. My workplace is even staging a protest soon.

    I don't understand why you're getting down-voted. Living abroad and have stopped listening to news since the Trump election. Every 6 months I tune in, and while it seems a lot has happened, no progress has actually been made

    this seems cool, but... so what? cute photo op and a tale for the grandkids....
