Third No Kings protests to see millions across US push back on Trump administration - Anti-authoritarian rallies, taking place in all 50 states plus 16 countries, are expected to be biggest in US history

How does that have anything to do with what I said?

>The psychological impact on the part of the aggrieved party is indeed tangible and lasting: the people there see that they are not alone in their frustration. Not data, not coverage, but lived experience. In turn, these people are then more inclined to resist through other channels: attending disruptive vigils, being involved in immediate and semi-immediate election campaigns, engaging with their community in a way more aligned with the character of the protest. Any data on any of that? >A scheduled and peaceful demonstration with an end time is precisely what working people need to enter the conversation, to have a hand in on the opposition process. In turn, **it becomes harder for tyrannical ideology and policy to persist and be sustained, the effort on the part of the ruling party needs to grow, stretching and thinning resources.** What? By what means does it become harder for tyranny to impose itself? Stretching and thinning what resources? They don’t consume any resources in this scenario. >You’re a fool if you think this single event will make tomorrow any different than it was today in a major and recognizable way; but if you’re not a fool, you can see how the effect dominoes forward and propels and emboldens opposition movements, gives people a sense of interconnectedness, community, and purpose. The most dangerous thing to an authoritative regime is a sense of purpose among its detractors. You’re just waxing poetic without any meaningful, real evidence of anything. >I won’t equivocate any more on the subject, you’re looking to object. You’re either frightened or unwilling to be uncomfortable, maybe unbothered or disinterested in participating, but that’s why we were all there, so people like you can keep typing your frustrations, keep expressing your self freely; we can’t count on you to be at the front lines of protest, but you can count on us. I mean, okay, I’ll count on the few days of coverage it gets on sympathetic channels and nothing else.
