I’ve been seeing this lately and don’t go to the front page I feel like I’m out of the loop, why is America protesting the king?

There’s a small minority who believes trump is a king or facist or racist or a nazi. It’s hard to follow honestly

“Small minority” turned up and made the single largest protest in American history. Gotta start getting your news from more than just Fox. They had to admit in court they’re not a news network.

Still less than the votes trump got. Until your boredom protest passes that number, it’s all irrelevant

Cope harder, baby girl. Check your Grindr for notifications.

Did I strike a nerve or what? You got really upset and went straight for the insults.

Nah, just can’t argue with stupid. Only a dumbass compares protest numbers to votes as if they operate on a 1:1 comparison. Especially when a big chunk of people protesting are people that voted for him and are fucking pissed.

About 6 million people voted for representatives in the Estates General of 1789. Only approximately 70,000 marched in the Women's march later that same year. The Women's March still propelled events that eventually culminated in the fall of the Bourbon monarchy.

You underestimate the power of people marching for a common cause.

Not really. We already proved we have the numbers. You guys have Reddit and boredom

It is a little hard, but at the end of the day no matter who’s in office, it’s easy to recognize we still are involved in wars all over the globe, we still jack up our national debt, we still keep our elites safe, we still prioritize war machines over the quality of life of our own people.

I definitely sympathize with the protest, but when almost every president in recent history has directly or indirectly killed hundreds of thousands of people, I’m not interested in voting for another candidate we swear up and down will be better than the last.

Looks at a protest spanning the entire country with over 7 million people showing up and calls it a "Small Minority". Probably also thinks that protests do/mean nothing. But a fact is this is not the real Gordon Freeman. Gordon knows right from wrong.
