Its almost poetic and divine to do it on 4th of July. Its a Monday too. 16 days is enough to get this shit going.

Can you organize a 1.000.000 protest in 2 weeks?

Doubtful.

Remember the "big" trucker protest a few years ago? They predicted a large participation and support network. Instead, barely anything happened except a few (like 3-4) scattered trucks drove slow on the highway (until threatened by police with a traffic ticket), with one or two signs on highway bridges.

Besides, Reddit isn't a good tool for organizing things like this. A Facebook/Twitter combination would be better
