    Sustained protests have changed a lot in the past few years. You can ask France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Greece, The Netherlands, Serbia, Nepal, South Korea did it with varying degrees of success.

    Maybe even the Home of the Brave could do it. Don’t let your pessimism get in your way.

      It’s much harder to protest in the US since it’s so fucking big. All those countries you mentioned are tiny land mass compared to the US, so any US protests always seem so spread out.

      I’m not against protest, just saying it’s not 1 to 1.

        Why does that matter? Protest in your home town. The No Kings protests were held all across the country. No one had to travel anywhere.
