Hopefully, it gets people fired up and actually involved. Solidarity isn't an awful thing either. Its also a good reminder that there are quite a few people who didnt fall in line behind Trump.
Sure, which I said I appreciate. But people seemed pretty fired up against Trump already and it didn't do shit.

One thing that really bothers me about the way people in democratic nations interpret modern politics is that there is an assumed "civilized now." In other words, we pretend separation from the stories told by history.

A lot of angry people like to compare Donald Trump to Hitler, because it is politically easy and they are fixated on the figurehead, but what they are really seeing is something much harder to accept as true: that people in a modern, educated democracy have proven as manipulitable as demonized, tightly compartmentalized groups from history...post-WWI Germany being the easiest reference.

Whether Trump supporters have grievances built in by real circumstances or not, they have shown us that no nation yet imagined has developed a populous fully protected from the group-think that allows false narratives to flourish. There are dozens of easily-disproved "stories" out there that more than half of them believe. And all of those stories are aimed at demonizing one "other" or another.

So much of their manipulated worldview has centered on the idea that they are the secret, silent majority that volume is now key. Demonstrations are necessarily part of the underwriting. You can see that in social media's Trumpbot freak out today, and in Sean Spicer's sulk. And it's hard not to notice that the media stopped discussing "why Trump won" today and started discussing, for the first time, just how preposterous and alarming his choices were.

“Never apologize,” he said he had told Mr. Trump. “Facts are white noise,” and “emotions rule.”

The women are going to be riled up because of the march. The men in their lives are going to see the change first, if they aren't feminists themselves already.

Naomi Judd gave a good speech today. "Nasty woman" means something totally different now.
