Summary
Organizers of the 2017 Women’s March are planning the “People’s March” on January 18, 2025, ahead of Donald Trump’s second inauguration.
Unlike the record-breaking 2017 protest with 500,000 people, this multi-issue demonstration, addressing abortion, LGBTQ+ rights, climate change, and more, expects a smaller turnout of 50,000.
Organizers acknowledge shifting political dynamics and aim to build a sustainable movement by connecting participants with advocacy organizations.
I’m anxious to see entire cities and states ignore the dude.
NYC - Eric Adams is straight up a trumper
and at the same time, Eric Adams is somehow a democrat. But I’m told the party leaders didnt turn right, the Dem voters did, or some such nonsense?
He ran on the Democratic ticket, but he’s by no means a democrat. The only people who like him are cops and landlords
If you like hating Eric Adams, I highly recommend the Eric Adams takes/episode from the If Books Could Kill Podcast.
Anxious or excited?
I’m concerned about the next 4 years.
Nothing is permanent
Need to get this tattooed
Don’t worry, I was told that a second Trump administration would rejuvenate the enthusiasm of the American left-wing to oppose government tyranny
/s
We only got a second trump term because the center wing of the party was so disinterested in opposing it.
I went to the March for Science and was glad I did. It was cold and rainy but everyone was having a good time. Got to hear some great speakers and geek out with other scientists. It was really encouraging to see the scientific community come together. I’m hoping we will see more of that this time around.
Wait until it’s warm and he has to be in DC, then organize the march, also make it a gun show
Protesting against democracy, that’s a good look.
Protesting is democracy 🙄
I don’t think you understand how dictatorships work.
Sure, but we’ve been BSing each other about the fact that we have a democracy at all anyway.
“Princeton University study: Public opinion has “near-zero” impact on U.S. law.” https://act.represent.us/sign/problempoll-fbaNo one debates the veracity of that study, and arguably, that detachedness is why the dems lost in every single demographic in the last election, except for a 1% gain in college educated white men. Its past time we started talking about the fact that we dont live in a democracy.
Protesting the incoming kleptocratic, kakistocratic oligarchy. Not the democracy they want to do away with.
