    This is in Belgrade, a city with just over a million citizens:

    USA has a 40 times bigger population and 9 cities that are bigger than this:

    I’m not dissing those that actually try do do something, but it’s almost like Americans gave up on democracy and the rule of law.
    Or can Americans not see they are about to lose their democracy? And is heading directly towards a totalitarian regime!

    Dems (most of them) are just wringing their hands as usual

    Exactly, I wonder what it takes to make them wake up? Democracy in USA needs to be restored and reformed, and now is the time to do it.
    If democrats are waiting because they believe it will be easier if Trump loses more popularity, they are playing a very dangerous game.

          And we are. Sure. 34,000 in the Capitol of Colorado might seem pathetic to you, but that’s enormous. Just to meet with Bernie Sanders and AOC.

          50501 is gaining a lot of momentum. Nearly every weekend in every city there are protests. They’re happening during the weekdays too. There are people showing up to republicans in town halls voicing their anger at their representatives.

          If you aren’t willing to help, kindly fuck off.
