The funny thing about this is the NYT saying it's thousands. There were at least 500 people at just the Charlottesville protest. Probably more at its peak.

Y'all, this article fills me with hope. Protesting feels awkward at first, hell I had no idea I was going to radicalize so quickly over the past month. But we are rising up, we are waving the flag, we are patriots and we are fighting for our democracy and the promise of what America could be.

(not trolling, I just don’t understand if funny because they should have said “hundreds” or because they should have said… idk… millions?)

I was baffled by how silent the public is in the face of this hostile government takeover. German media seems to share that perception.
Seeing individuals like you do the right thing gives me a smidgen of hope and I am rooting for you!
