Just some North Korea shit, nothing to see here. Move along.

It’s called a goose-step and I can’t imagine it’s not too long until he orders the military to do it in his honor
What a man baby.
Ha ha ha Sargent bone spurs reporting for duty.
Trump doesn’t give a shit about anyone but him. They just cut $55M intended to fund training for rural teachers (because who wants educated educators?) and now he wants to spend more than that on a mile long military parade celebrating his birthday. And it’s not even a milestone birthday, just a birthday.
From the article, Trump wanted to do something similar but, presumably smaller, in his first term but backed off after the price tag came to $92M. He instead opted for an event that ONLY cost $13M. How much do you think this one will cost? What will get cut to fund it?
Fucking narcissistic traitor… He’ll probably figure out how to grift a few tens of millions from this by selling tickets, too.

Doesn’t have to be this way though, wide defederation is the answer for toxic propaganda spreading instances
Let’s be sure the best parade balloon ever created is part of it.
Omg please bring this back 🤣 it was such an incredible troll move, and it very obviously got under his skin
I saw a couple people carrying smaller versions of it at the Handsoff event. 😂
You can buy balloon versions online if you’re looking for one.
Where archive
Don’t show up, even to protest. He’ll just say everyone showed up for him. Let him have his audience-less parade like a retarded North Korean despot.
how about a nearby protest with the goal of gathering more people than the march itself? that would piss him off
A protest with signs that point out how much trump hates the military would be good.
The “Real America” protest
Would a protest that involves protesters blocking the parade from moving result in an american tiananmen square?
why would i want to stop Trump of making a fool of himself towards the civilized world? when we can troll him on the issue he cares the more about, after grifting: crowd sizes
This is the correct response.
ETA: and I strongly suspect this will happen somehow. So, his birthday is June 14th, so those who can should start making plans to be in DC around then (actual day of parade may be different, so don’t lock in specific dates until there’s more info).
Meanwhile, get ready for your local May 1st protests. (More locations will be certainly be added to that map as the day gets closer).
And until then, there are lots more opportunities to get out and protest.
How protesty!
Tangent!
Hey are you able to use their map on mobile without issue? It’s the worst I’ve used in years. It might treat one finger like two, or none at all. Too tired to email them right now but certainly whack on the latest iOS on a new phone.
Maybe protest and block the parade. This parade feels like bait to start riots. They want riots.
Better to protest in peace and ignore the parade. Just drawing a larger crowd and some good media attention will troll him enough. Concentrate on signs showing ways the money could have been used for good.
An 8 mile nearby protest.
We’ve got one shot, one opportunity

Let that man be a grandpa for like 5 mins…
palms are sweaty
An 8 mile protest in the way.
We should throw our own parade someplace else. Maybe even call it the Obama parade.
You don’t to resort to ableism to shit on the fascist
Some people are mentally deficient. Trump shares some common traits with them. That’s the way the world is. You don’t need to police other people’s comparisons.
Do I really need to explain this to you? In 2025 you don’t understand why that’s not ok to say?
You call it policing, I call it holding people accountable for the words they use in public. I wonder which one is more accurate?
I understand why you think it’s not OK to say and I disagree. Call that what you like. It makes no difference to me.
If you know that then stop playing dumb. We both know your previous comment was baiting bullshit.
It’s not bait to say that I think you’re distracting from an important conversation by trying to play morality police on behalf of a group of people who didn’t ask for help restricting the language used on the internet. You took that upon yourself and decided that this was the time to try to shame everyone else into thinking the same way you do. Quit virtue signaling about ancillary bullshit and get pissed at your government.
👍
What if everyone lined the streets and silently faced the other direction?
That’d be OK if they all simultaneously gave him the brown eye.

Wild.
Expected. This ain’t the first time he’s tried this.
That doesn’t make it not wild though, imho.
did he also order spectators to cry of happiness?
Is he still pushing for hos face to be added to rushmore?
God, this guy ks hilarious. It would make me laugh if it did t make ne so concerned.
I have some questions. Will the soldiers all be white cis males? Will they be wearing orange makeup and smell like dirty diapers?
Will he be shooting a rifle in the air for the entire duration?
Someone might.
