What naysayers don’t get about ‘No Kings,’ the biggest protest in U.S. history
leaders with the most prominent Trump-resistance group organizing “No Kings” answered that complaint Saturday when Indivisible’s Ezra Levin took to the stage in Minneapolis and announced that a nationwide general strike is planned for May 1, modeled after a successful local action that shut down much of that region in January
It’s great and important, but even a 100,000,000 person march with turnouts in every major city every weekend isn’t worth a FRACTION of JUST GOING TO VOTE. All the protesting in the world won’t change the fact that failure to do that has the US stuck with this for AT LEAST the next 3 years.
