It's early yet, but is there any talk of a Women's March 2.0?

Trump needs to be reminded that a majority of the women in this country strongly disagree with him, and we will stand up and be counted.

No pussy hats this time. I say we dress in black, or maybe blue, and show the rest of the world that this creature does not represent our nation.

What say you?

The MAGAs and Proud Boys will be out in force... with batons and guns and knives... hoping to start shit.

"Stand back and stand by" from Hitler v2.

Those people think they are the majority now... and Trump has gone full dictator this time.

So the maggots can show up and gun us all down? Because really, who's going to fucking stop them?

My sorrow is turning into rage. But it's a rage that has no direction, it has no outlet. I have no country left.
For now I'm glad I've got a roof over my head and food in the fridge, but I don't know how long I'll have my healthcare, my trans child who's 23 years old is in danger, and the entire fabric of society is about to fucking Fall apart.
I'm sorry to be so jaded, but a rally, a protest, a March? It ain't going to do no good

We're just insignificant peons. They couldn't care less if we march. If we annoy them too much, they shoot tear gas, or bullets at the marchers. It WILL happen.

And the first march accomplished exactly nothing. Roe still was overturned, women are still dying from easily treated ailments related to their reproductive health.

By all means, protest while you can but it’s unfortunately futile.

Too many people tune out anything that doesn't affect them. We need to the information game.

The "Resistance" didn't actually do anything. Marching might make us feel better, but it won't accomplish anything and maybe only get some heads bashed in by MAGAs.

I don't know what the answer is. Protesting feels so useless.
