Is there even going to be one? The way today and August 2 went, this movement seems to be vanishing

Only if folks like you and me make it happen!

Not gonna lie, the event today is killing my morale. Turnout has fallen off a cliff

What do you suspect is causing it? Were you able to help out?

u/IAmTheNightSoil 13h ago

I dunno. Maybe just lack of publicity? Protest movements in the US tend to lose steam and fade away fairly quickly, so I'd guess it's that

If you have the bandwidth or capacity to, I’d try to find out how to help solve for that. If we wait for someone else to it may never happen. Knowing that the No Kings demonstration was by far the biggest, could be in our best interested to stick with that as the most folks are familiar with it. I may suggest that for my hometown.

Funny, 🥴 there was plenty of turnout in Maryland. 😊

Well, that's good. Turnout was down at the one I went to and according to what I'm seeing that seems to be the case in a lot of other places. Hopefully that isn't the case everywhere
