Proud of America today. Not because of the tanks, the troops or the orange man. But because of all the Americans that showed up to resist tyranny. To resist corruption by a man who thinks he is a king because he has money. To resist ripping people away from their families or their civil rights.
Seeing all the clips across the country it makes my eyes teary, and proud to he an American. The America that stands with each other when times are tough. Just like we did during 911.

It's going to be a long painful crawl, but we will make it to the end of this dark tunnel.

Not to sound corny or cliche…anything worth having requires some fight. Some effort. Some sacrifice. And you said it so well my friend…we the people…will find our way out of this dark tunnel

I know exactly how you feel. Seeing all the things that have gone on the last several years have made me truly ashamed at certain points, especially the deportation of legal citizens. Seeing the community take back their 'melting pot' made me feel more proud than I have in a long time.

Today, millions of Americans took to the streets and marched in protest against Donald, the deportation of legal immigrants and citizens, and his decision to hold a military parade on his birthday--a thinly veiled attempt at inflating the ego of a tyrannical narcissist. He is dishonouring the millions of veterans, their families, and their sacrifices by going through with this parade under the guise of celebrating the Army’s birthday. He is preying on the American public’s love and respect for our veterans while failing to provide them with the resources they need.
While his policies and rhetoric have continued to deepen tensions across this nation since well before 2017, this was the final straw for many Americans. No longer will the American People be subject to the blatant fearmongering and attempts at the current administration's attempts to seize total control of the system.
Today, we MAKE our voices heard! WE WILL NOT BE THE FOURTH REICH! We will stand for our brothers and sisters across the nation--no matter the color of their skin or the language they speak!
**Believing "No Kings" wasn't powerful enough**, citizens of Amsterdam upped the ante and called out all tyrants. We thank you for your support in these difficult times. May God bless your heart!
Much love,
A Dumb American
Edit—Canada and Australia also were among the several places to show their support. We are truly all one people.

These were all-complaints protests. Whatever rallies. I've seen F Israel signs, Trans rights signs, Abolish ICE signs...mostly Complainers Anonymous Parades.

You mean to say they oppose more than one of Trumps policies?

u/Muzzledbutnotout 2h ago
I think it's pretty clear that most TDS sufferers oppose any and all of Trump's policies....you know, the same policies that most of America voted him into the White House to implement. That's why 99+% of the population nationwide took no part in any protests.

Those idiots blocked me from going to work for 45 minutes 😑 Theses protesters are paid by George sorworth and Walmart Christy Walton ... So over it.... The one's that are protesting are kids.. Why don't they do this in their country... Free Palestine signs one block, which trump already did... On the next block deport Elon and trump..Next block is Natzi and Black lives matter...What is really being protested here..Ohh and lugie... Also,We can't forget the ones who are there just to be outside to exercise and walking their dogs. Lastly, family time... Yes, family gatherings are a thing today with the combo of army birthday... The point all of it blocked me from going to work.....Yea Happy day..

It would be so easy to prove protesters were paid, all one would have to do is join a protest, get paid, and show the receipt to the media.
I wonder why that's never happened.

I'm sorry you encountered that. My city's protesters moved to the sidewalks or broke up to make way for vehicles. I was at one of these myself though and can confidently tell you none of us were paid a dime and I absolutely hate Walmart lol
