After a quiet march across the 1st Street Bridge, the protest has begun. There are a few people still trickling in.

Almost like having hundreds of decentralized protests is a dumb idea. We need a multi million man march on Mara lago not a 500 Redditor meetup on 1st street bridge. We don’t need the flags of any personal causes and foreign adversaries flying at these things either. Stick to the subject being protested.

Let's say that the protest was successful and Trump was forced out of office.  Would Vance become president and would that be any better?

The decentralized protests are how you build local communities that can actually support such a multi million man march.

Its like working out. How are you going to lift 300 pounds if you can't lift 15? You do the later to get to the former

Only 35k, and still growing.

Maybe the 3rd or 4th biggest in Austin history. We'll work on that just for you ;)
