No Kings Event Map: https://www.nokings.org/#map
Find one near you, write down the address and time, and head out tomorrow. (You don't have to sign up for anything, all you need is the address).
Recommended that you bring a mask, hat, water and snacks. Safety Goggles or Glasses would also be a good idea if you have them.
Bring a sign or the US Flag if you have one.
For privacy reasons you may want to avoid bringing your phone, or place it inside a faraday bag (a really well sealed tinfoil pouch will work, and put it in airplane mode to avoid draining your battery) until you get home.
If you have a first aid kit, it wouldn't hurt to bring it, just in case.

We've only got about 6 on the team with an expected crowd size of 1500. Also heard about counter-protesters already planning to show up as well so I'm really hoping people are chill.

I think we had maybe 2k in Honolulu?
I expect SIGNIFICANTLY more

️ Dumb question: What is being protested? What would the result of a "successful" protest be?

schrieb am 14. Juni 2025, 03:33 zuletzt editiert von tangerine@50501.chatThere's a short video on the No Kings site that explains what the protest is for.
We're protesting Trump and his use of authoritarian power against the will of the people. Such as:
- The kidnapping families off the street to deport them without due process (illegal)
- Illegally sending the National Guard and Marines to LA to stop peaceful protests against the will of the people and Governor
- Taking away Medicaid (our universal healthcare that only applies to low income people) from hundreds of thousands of people, many of whom may die without it
- Making ICE into what is effectively Brown Shirts
- Persecuting his political enemies, journalists, and lawyers, who dare stand against him
A successful protest would be that the Trump regime becomes too afraid that we will revolt if they keep pushing for an authoritarian dictatorship. We have already seen him begin to back down due to the backlash he has received.

Posting this here due to how important it is. Sorry that it's off-topic, mods, but we need as many eyes on this as humanly possible right now.

Maybe you should edit it to be a reminder not to take phones to the protest (or if you must, make it a burner phone and put it in a faraday cage).
