Yesterday's No Kings Rally

October 19th, 2025 at 08:32 pm

No Kings Day Rally in my town

Can't really tell from this, but this rally was bigger than the June one (which had a turnout of about 5,000).  Last time, the rally stopped at this intersection (the biggest intersection downtown, where my office is located); this time, they continued on to march another half mile to City Hall.

    I was at our cabin in the next state over so I attended there. I was impressed because it's a purple state and the more rural areas definitely lean red. I was grateful that it was an easy time.

    Batya Ungar-Sargon said it best - "I support white Boomers using their First Amendment rights to hold a mass therapy session about the fact that Trump won! But to call him a king is utterly preposterous. He won the popular vote. He is enacting the exact agenda he promised he would. They are actually protesting American democracy. The only appropriate response is to laugh!"

    Nice! The nationwide count was crazy somewhere between 7 and 8 million. Nobody-you-know I don't remember him saying he'd demolish part of the White House and build a ballroom with bribes from mega corporations (or about a million other insanely criminal and unethical things he's done), but okay... I guess I wasn't listening closely when he ran...

    Nobody You Know - then laugh.

    Legitimate peaceful protest against misuse of power is not a therapy session. It is sanity. It is honor. It is courage. It is necessary.

    Nobody (good name!), you are on the wrong side of history.

    NYK, you should understand that being elected, and then to abuse power after you have been elected, are not actually the same thing right? Prior to Hitler being a fuhrer, he was legitimately elected as a Chancellor. Same thing with Putin. Same thing with Xi Jing Ping. So on and so forth, plenty of smaller examples as well.

    History is full of leaders who only abused their power after being elected... because they didn't really have the power to abuse it yet. Generally speaking though, they all they basically lie and manipulate the process prior to attaining that power.

    That being said, yes, I do feel that it's unfortunate so many still do not understand what it is they were truly voting into. The only thing worse than doing the wrong thing is to do the wrong thing and yet think it's the right thing to do.
